Not bad.
If Heskey decides to choose Hull instead of Leicester I promise not to suggest that Heskey chose to come to Hull instead of Leicester.
BTW. Do you think he'll refuse to celebrate when he pops in a hat-trick against your lot next season?

Ah yes, the Heskey hat-trick. That most common of sporting sights!
You mean the future run-away Championship winners?
That was a joke by the way, before I get called arrogant and deluded.
Second place will be fine.
"The future run-away Championship winners!" Why don't you have that as your new signature for next season? 
Nonsense, the Allams have said that there is no specific budget for transfers but they will be done on a deal to deal basis and assessed on value for money. Which is a long way of saying that they aren't unwilling to spend big but only if the player is worth it, for all the premiership experience Heskey offers he's still 34 years old and is as likely to be successful as he is to be unsuccessful.
The reason we've got him is the 2 year deal and first team football, something no other club that he'd be interested in joining would offer, the chances are we'd offer a similiar amount to you (if you even offered) but for twice the length of time. I'm sure he'd love to go back to Leicester but he's got a career to think about as well.
I really don't think we offered anything.
The man put his hand in his own pocket to save us from administration, its clear he loves the club. I just don't think Nigel wanted him and (if the rumours are true) he wants a younger targetman in Harry Kane.
I doubt you did, though Pearson showed last summer that he likes a target man by getting Adebola despite it being a cheap option. Kane seems a bit too young to be a target man, i haven't seen much of him but can he really outmuscle defenders regurarly at 18 years old? Maybe NP did stick in a cheeky 1 year offer and hope for the best, he's the ideal role model for Kane in terms of being a hold up striker so 1 year training together wouldn't do any harm.
I still think that if you did stick in a 1 year offer he'd have chosen us for the extra year, he knows Bruce well enough (which is the only reason we stood a chance of getting him in the first place). Footballers tend to let their head overrule their heart when it comes to moving clubs.
The £100k thing is obviously admirable btw and fair play to him for that
A lot of Championship sides who played Millwall will tell you that Kane is a talent and has the capabilities of being a top class striker, maybe for England.
Just supposing for a minute that Heskey does in fact sign for Hull, would they officially be known as Leicester reserves or Leicester "B"
Woah, I didn't post it to take a dig. I just thought it was a useful piece of information that both clubs would have liked to know as we were both linked with him?
Jesus Christ.
Even though you're trying to wum, at least try and make some sense. Firstly, reserve teams aren't usually better than the first team. Secondly, you know it'd only be 3 ex-Leicester players?
