Fair point, Nigel paid £1.3m for McLean, who defintely can't cut it. As for countless teams, I think Blackpool, Southampton and Leicester makes three, which is reasonably easy to count up to, unless you're a one armed Saudi shoplifter who's been caught more than three times.
No one knows the exact number of teams chasing the players you donut. McLean actually had a decent strike rate for Peterborough where him and CMS had the team built around them and they had a very good partnership. Since Nigel came here everytime he has spent money he has always got a very good player for it.
Yet Nick Proschwitz is the best thing since sliced bread according to you lot. That's like well ******ed init bro.
You don't know who else was looking at him. Just those mentioned in the media. Perhaps McLean will do a good job for someone else, like the "countless" players we've had that looked rubbish but went on to do well elsewhere.
You're rather missing the point. I've no idea if you're man will cut it, I have no idea if our man will cut it, that was exactly my point.
We paid 2M for DJ Campbell and he was a massive pile of crap Blackpool had him and he looked a class player Its the way things are sometimes
There's no evidence our owners won't spend, there is evidence your owners are clueless. Ours assess each deal one-by-one. They clearly believed Bruce that Proschwitz was worth over 2 million. If he'd asked to spend 5 million on Mills our owners wouldn't have sanctioned it, as it was a stupid deal.
Dont go there Fosse. I told them their owners was foreign once and they are cried so no he went to school in Hull so there not foreign. I think they think anything outside of humberside is foreign
My point is you have said several times that it's not a punt and we are spouting "clueless nonsense about the risk of signing players who are currently unproven in the Championship". It is a punt. And we haven't been spouting nonsense. Only facts.
How is there evidence our owners are clueless? How long have you owners been there and who have you really paid for? So far just McLean and Fryatt the rest was all peanuts. Your owners are investing on the same level Milan Mandaric did for us They backed their manager. You want clueless owners look at Blackburn And the owners never sanctioned a 5M deal. It was 4M
Bizarrely, you claimed someone born in England and raised in England, wasn't English. It was ridiculous then, it remains equally ridiculous now.
OLM, is Hull a small place? Because you seem to have no end of connections with your club. And obviously you must be loaded if millionaires live in your old house. So how come a millionaire self-employed businessman has so much time to burn on this forum? And on the Leicester forum at that?
I've said it's not that much a punt(in my opinion), i've also said that Vardy is not that much of a punt either. Both are a reasonable risk in my opinion. The nonsense I referred to was not posted by you, but by the rather less informed or less educated posters on here.
