Didn't we do this when Nixon last broke news on January signings like dowell?

Nixon used to be OK, now he throws 10 guesses out and hope one sticks
If only we'd of shortened our name to Hull Tigers AFC eh.
Nobody tells him how to run a business. Nobody.
Why, what did he do?
There is an ex football agent on Twitter who seems to think we’re close to signing Szmodics for 8M but he did then refer to us as the Lions…
Also thinks Chelsea want 40M for Delap and we’re one of three teams interested. Both nonsense but I can’t find anything else!

I highly doubt we'll spend £40m on one player (or that Chelsea will get £40m for Delap anyway). I also hope there's no way we are signing a 30 year old who's never really done much at PL level for £8m
Feels an absolute load of tosh.
There is some rumour going around that this is to stave off a 15m pound approach by another club. Probably agents talk to up his money.
You best let the teams in the national League know then
If ever there was a player over hyped, it's him.
We'd take 15 million I think.
I can see a loan with an obligation to buy if we stay up working for deals of that value.
I still think he’s a good player but Delap still has a lot of the flaws he had when he was with us. For example, he uses strength and pace well to dribble past players but he often tries to take on one too many and lose the ball. He’d glide past one player, then another, you’d be in awe and then he’d try taking on a third player and lose the ball instead of releasing the ball to someone in space (space he opened up with his powerful running).
Rosenior at City, McKenna, Maresca and Rosenior again have not managed to coach this out of him yet to make him a more intelligent and effective striker. He needs to learn quickly when to pass in the final third instead of chasing moments for his YouTube compilations.

I'd read somewhere that Real Betis were planning to submit a £15m offer, paper talk so probably a load of tosh.
