Think I'd rather have Cannon, not every young lad with promise will work out, but get enough right and there's your business model for getting into the prem and possibly staying there, a la Brighton and Brentford
Another true and even lesser known FACT about Charlie Dickens when he visited Hull was he bought several pairs of silk stockings for his mistress from a shop down Whitefriargate ( Don't think it was ye Olde Annie Summers shop either ) This was disclosed when the shop assistant told the local newspaper at the time. The assistant was handed two free tickets for his show, obviously to keep quiet, but he still blabbed. No-one knew Dickens had a mistress who, allegedly, travelled the country with him on his ' A Night with Dickens' tour. The news sent shock waves all around the country. Dickens, in fact was rather fond of the ladies of the night and actually lived in a seperate house to his wife and seven kids in London at weekends, often stretching into most of the following week too. A tale of Two (Hull) Cities.
Is there any information about wages of new transfers btw? We keep mentioning that we reduced wage bill by sending Seri, Tufan but are newcomers really cheap on salary compared to them?
Not such place around Hull called 'The Orchard' so I wouldn't know. There is Orchard Park Estate aka as OPE but 'The Orchard'? never heard of it.
You can bring Zaha for less than 10M just for wages. Galatasaray is already willing to let him go free.
