Chester and Hobbs are both better than Turner.
I'm afraid that's simply not true.
Both have done a good job for us and both are decent defenders, but neither have yet matched the performances of Turner(though Chester might well do).

Sounds like you do begrudge us? Our Owners are here for the long term Pearsons words not mine.They have tried to help you? Sold you Fryatt and Hobbs and loaned you Waghorn and Pearson so do not be bitter.

Fryatt has many problems to address before he becomes a good striker at this level.
1- he's easily caught offside- quite infuriating at times.
2- he takes far too many touches when taking a shot early would suffice (even if it goes wide or doesn't go in it's an effort, if you don't buy a ticket youwon't win the lottery).
3- there's question marks about his confidence.
But he's still better than Adebola and Mclean. Can't say NP bought very well in the striking department when compared with other areas.
To get good players at this level these days you have to pay money for them! 1.85 million for sharp would be an absolute bargain in todays market place. He is a proven goalscorer at this level and thats with a very poor team! I honestly cant understand why people think he isnt worth it. We dont need to strengthen the team in many areas so why not blow most of our budget on one player for a position we desperately need filling!
Its a similar thing with the possible michael turner deal that has been rumoured. People are arguing that we shouldnt go for him because we already have hobbs and chester and wouldnt want to upset the partnership that we have now. But lets face it, turner is a better defender than both hobbs and chester. There is no point in signing someone as cover, if you are going to sign someone you need to make sure they are going to improve the team, which turner definitely would do! Now, i dont think the turner deal will happen but i still cant believe people are saying we they would be unhappy with his signing!

Yes see you in March. Then hopefully in the play off Final.Dont begrudge you in the slightest dear boy. Good luck in Jan with whatever over inflated fees you end up paying. NP did a great job @ Hull binning the deadwood and bringing in better and far more talented players. But he has not the skill or nouse to improve them WHERE AS NICK BARMBY HAS, so i am glad NP left. Everyones a winner. Please dont get neck strain as you keep looking up at us eh ?See you in March.

I always said Hobbs and Fryatt would be very good signings for you
We have done better then Matty with Nugent but at the time we sent you Hobbs he was still good enough to be first choice for us with Sol Bamba. Even now i would have Jack Hobbs as 3rd choice behind Mills and Bamba but Jack is better then Sean St. Ledger. Fryatt was too much of a confidence player for Sven's liking and he was moved on. Im not envious of you squad, the only thing you have which we dont is a decent winger
Our defence is rock solid as long as Mills dont get himself sent off, Kasper Schmeichel is the best keeper in the league, our midfield is a complete mess and up front our strikers will score if given decent service and Beckford can be arsed
just wondering if any of those
sneaky lestas have told young billy that ull isnt in
yorkshire and is in umberside ? which no doubt would
horrify young billy.
oo it horrify's me too!!!

Another guy on twitter - no idea of his reliability - but reckons sharp is most keen on a move to us.
