    He didn't say he was homegrown at any point. Just saying.

    Oh sorry, looked like you did. Your message isn't very clear then.

    What did you mean by "Not sure how he counts as homegrown to be honest."?

    Who thinks he is homegrown if not the person you responded to? Did you?

    It's a thread about Bowen and the conversation went on to be about homegrown players. Seemed logical to me to say he doesn't fall into that category :emoticon-0148-yes:

    He absolutely falls into the category of a homegrown player.

    Just not a Hullgrown one.

    Every player in football does then, making it a pointless term.

    Homegrown - A player who's been registered with an English club for a minimum of three years before the age of 21.

    In the Premier League, only about a third of players are homegrown.

    I'm sure he wouldn't mind a golden boot on his mantle.

    Each 25 man squad must have 8 homegrown players, good luck trying to convince the FA that were 'all homegrown somewhere'. <doh>

    He does it so he can twist his original meaning so he never has to admit he's wrong.

    I wasn't talking about the FA definition of the word. I simply said all players are homegrown and they are.
