    Your mate was right. So how do we get this younger Adebola?

    I'm sure Adebola will have a brother or two in that age range.

    There aren't many about. Which is precisely why we took a punt on the old one!

    everyone has a price but i fear that one will be too rich in terms of value. there are so many good suggestions but in these days of over-inflated worth, i would encourage to look at scotland or perhaps ireland

    i do not doubt Nigel Pearson's ability to spot a player and I am firmly of the opinion that overall he was a massive success for us and for that we should be eternally grateful considering where we were not too long ago, however, he did seem to have as many unsuccessful 'punts' as successful ones. For instance Adebola and Bostock. Did he sign Rowan Vine or was that long before him? I still think Pusic will prove a crock on a par with Richie Appleby. For me the jury is possibly still out on Brady. Is Aaron McLean worth more than a £1 million? James Harper? To name but a few

    Harper, Bostock and Vine were all deals we did when we were skint, I don't think Pearson can really be blamed, he was just signing who he could with the funds available and considering he managed to still get Rosenior and Koren for nothing, he did a hell of a job. Adebola was a poor one and we overpaid a bit for Mclean, but overall his signings were outstanding.

    yes they have and i feel its just paper junk to fill up space. two things that MUST be key to Hull City getting whoever it is they want is 1)Nick Barmby in charge and 2)where we are in the league table. By Jan 3rd Hull City could well be top looking at the way games are going. But i think we have a great chance of getting the one NB is after for sure.

    Why do people think brothers will both be gifted footballers?

    My brother's **** at football, the fact that he's got tits and called Lorraine as nothing to do with it though!

    good player but likes to whinge alot. we dont want glory boys or whingers and i dont think that NB would either.


    IF and it is a big IF, anthony gerrard wants to come back to hull city in the summer HE can sign a pre-contract with us in Jan as his own contract runs out @ cardiff next summer. whatever league City are in next season getting a player of his quality for nowt(transfer fee wise) is great business. i wonder if AG has been ringing our Nicky of late ? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    i think you will find that both he and matthew bates (boros capt centre-bacK) WILL BOTH BE GOING in jan to the PL.
    swansea want Bates still. Emnes has been watched by Sunderland - Everton and Bolton.

    We need 2 strikers of quality I think <ok> Soton have Lambert, Ghuly, De Ridder and they are adding in January. We only have Fryatt and McClean as recognised strikers (not sure whether to include Adebolla as a recognised striker <laugh>)

    If we got one quality addition, then I guess that would do, we've got other make shift attackers in Stewart and Garcia.

    We've lost Waghorn, Simpson and the services of Barmby off the bench.

    I think we should have got Darius Henderson before he went to Milwall!

    i never said he was. i said he would be a great signing for us. in saying that Maynard has also gone off the boil.

    unlike you i dont rule anyone out from this league. Maynard will go for less than 3 million IF HE GOES IN JAN. but where is the question ?

    That's it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We need a ****ing contortionist to lead the line!

    Good on the ground, good in the air and able to use a big right foot, a cultured left boot, and still go hand in hand with an old head on young shoulders!

    What about the lad Frankenstein from Transylvania?

    Nowt to with Pearson, all the players we signed were brought in by Steve Walsh.

    We'll miss him a lot more than old flat top.
