Wow if only Steve Bruce knew this he coulda saved all that money on Meyler. SB also preferred Oli and TC over Mckenna, both couldnt get a game with our last two inferior managers. Oh and Ash did score vital goals, to compare the two shows whose the ****.
McKenna legs had gone by the end of last season, but for most of it he was a vital player for us and one of our better players last season, Ashbee is THE Hull City legend, and you never said "vital" goals before, Bruce did play McKenna before he got sent off for violent conduct and he hasn't gave him a sniff since. It's just the same as Rosenior, one of our better players last season but now our side is too good for him.
"Vital" you said Ash didnt score. I said he did and used the word vital. Mckenna didnt score at all for us vital or not. We gave a 2 yr contract to a 34 year old, ****ing awful decision, who has played his whole career outside the premiership. Mediocrity. We signed him thats what we got. Did what it said on the tin.
Tht's harsh. When we signed him we only had Harper, Evans and Cairney as midfielders. We weren't spending money so it was cheap signings only and that's why McKenna was signed.
Mckenna signed when Oli was injured, we had no Quinn and played two in the middle. Harper was bollocks, you claim Evans is and Cairney got injured to. So Mckenna was someone we needed to use, for me he was a good player, but tailed off. He did something most our players don't, and that was use his brain. If someone broke when he was last man or second to last, he brought them down and took a booking, the amount of times he did that and saved us a goal or two is shown by how many goals we have conceded on the break this season.
