    Good to see him sign, will do a good job for us at the back. Hopefully more will follow soon.

    Fantastic signing, really pleased!

    Such a great lad as well, like his comments about the club.

    Hobbs is a great signing for you. He is an all round top defender at this level. The only problem I have ever had with him is sometimes he is too soft and lacks a threat in the opposition box, but defensively he is one of the best defenders in this league

    Yeah, I expected him to say how Hull was a Schithole and how he didn't really want to leave Lester.

    Wasn't Messi being exchanged for James Harper as i suggested unfortunately......

    Good signing, looked a better player then Gerrard towards the end of last season, but i think that was more down to the fact that Hobbs was fighting to sign for us. Him and Chester next year look a solid pair to me, however if we can get Ayala i would not complain!

    Excellent signing. I'm delighted with it. He's a very good defender, great character and will fit straight in.

    Why is it after reading each of your posts, you get that "patronised" feeling?

    Hobbs is an all round top defender AT THIS LEVEL. The inference being that Lester don't want him because they are better than this level and we aren't.

    This Superior attitude is somewhat strange coming from a fan of a Club that not so long ago "cheated" their way to promotion after jettisoning £50m worth of debt. I'm sure your "Kid in Sweetshop" attitude to the current spending spree would not be shared by the small local traders that lost millions thanks to your clubs record breaking inpropriety.

    We at Hull City have had debt problems also. But for the grace of Allah we might also be deep in the world of CVAs and "10p in the £". But I'd like to thing we would be cured of the rather unattractive condition of "We're a bigger and better Club than you!"

    So, if I were you, my friend, I would be careful about feeling too much up your own ar5e. Take a lesson from Birmingham City, Pompey and others; you're one dodgy foreign owner away from a return to the financial crash-site you were not so long ago. Things that go around, come around.

    Unfair. Hobbs is a good defender at this level and not at any higher level because he's never played any higher. The guy is just stating it how it is.

    Think you're mistaking Cockiness for Sarcasm.

    The point remains; Hobbs, like any footballer today (notwithstanding local heros such as Nick and Deano) , couldn't care less about the Clubs that pay their exhorbitant wages. Comments such as "what a great Club Hull City is" actually makes me quite nausious. It's in the same parish as kissing the badge; it's disrespectful and insults the intelligence of "some" fans. Those that fall for it tend to be the "hard-of-thinking".

    Proud_Fox is a rather a juvenile individual.

    On the Leicester board yesterday, he actually said I should get six years in prison for inciting racial hatred, merely for referring to his home city as 'Leicesteristan' in response to a load of Hull is a **** hole nonsense. I'm not sure how he ended up being the moderator on there, he lacks the balance and the intelligence to carry out such a role.

    Im not saying he isnt good enough for the prem as he has never played their, a few games for Liverpool and that was it. I think he will be good enough for the prem but he isnt ready yet maybe another season at this level and he will be ready

    If you read them back i didnt say anything about six years in prison. You really need to learn how to read you do.

    Apologies, I take that back, it was indeed Danger_Fox who thinks I should be in prison.

    You just went with - Hull is a ****hole full of lazy people who cant get off their arse a get a job, they live off the gouvernment and nicking things and taking them to cash converters.

    Which is obviously far more grown up. Muppet.

    HA! HA! HA! If ever there was a club that deserved to be associated to Cash Converters it's Lester!!

    Their club motto should be "pecuniam tuam converte nos et in pulverem"
