Without boring everyone to death we all proved under Sven big transfer fees and big wages for proven players doesnt guarantee nothing

Is our squad good enough to compete now. Most definitely, yes it would get a few hidings but so do Arsenal

Is our squad good enough to stay up? Maybe and maybe not

As OLM said Nigel will strengthen to give us the best possible chance

Your in a similar position to Norwich last year where they spent a bit and players everyone thought was good signings. Its possible you can get relegated whilst its possible you could do a Southampton

Thats the beauty of football. Very fine lines

Nobody is saying that your squad can't compete. If they couldn't, they wouldn't have convincingly won promotion. The only problem is with AKCJs' delusional views on the strength of your squad and the strength of the premier league. Unless he's suddenly started supporting Manchester City...
 
Why has this post degenerated into a discussion about Leicester. I couldn't give a flying **** about Leicester, apart from sincerely hoping that we hammer them both home and away, which if they seriously don't get some new players in we will.

Why does it matter that Hull have been in the Premier League?


I can guarantee that I've seen more live Premier League matches in the last 10 years than you have.

Rather a strange assumption, clearly not something you have thought through or learnt anything from either.

As you haven't been in the PL for 10 years, is there a second team you support you haven't told us about?

You clearly haven't seen more live PL games, unless you have been unfaithful to your Leicester City. Anything you would like to share with us Andy? Who do you really support?


idiot.
 
Snodgrass means "Smooth Grassy Place" in Scots Gaelic.

The family name Snodgrass is said to originate from lands in the parish of Irvine, Ayrshire, known as Snodgrasse, or Snodgers, at a bend in the River Garnock at 55º 38' north, 4º 42' west, which were rented out in plots. Both forms are recorded in Ayrshire and in Glasgow between the 13th and 16th centuries. In 1528 a charter from the King lists the lands of 'Snotgerss' as being one of the confirmed possessions of Hugh, third Earl of Eglinton;[1] the next record seen of the name is in the late 17th century.

Snodgers.

That surely has to be his given nickname should he sign for us.

I've posted what I think about Snodgers and what I think he'll bring to the table, damn you Brownie, but what I really wanted to discuss on a Snodgers thread was Leicester's striking options up front. I think we all did really.

Anyway I'm just glad AKCJ could see our predicament and steer the thread away from its given topic onto a far more interesting and Leicester based one.

Thanks AKCJ.

You're the greatest.
 
Snodgers certainly caught my eye. I was going to highlight it, but thought I'd see if anyone else homed in.

Let's all wave our Snodgers na naaa na naa 'ull.

You're lying, or braindead.


6 defeats to your 15.

31 wins to your 24.

83 goals to your 61.

43 goals conceded to your 52.


21 games unbeaten, 9 games won in a row...

Rather than continuing this rather pointless debate, I suggest we wait until August, see who you sign and then watch you play to see if you look good enough.
 
It seems Bruce was very keen, very keen indeed...

Snodgrass said: "I would love to say it just took one chat but it must have been about 10.

"I've spoken to the manager more than I've spoken to my wife over the last few days.

"That's exactly what you want. He's got fresh ideas for this season and he wanted me to be a part of that.

"The big thing for me was the way the club wanted me and pushed to get me through the door. That's hard to come by in football."

Snodgrass, who had one year left on his contract at Carrow Road, was voted player of the season last term but could not save them from the drop.

He said: "Getting relegated was hard to take. I knew of Hull's interest and a few others.

"After speaking to a few people, I knew this was the place I wanted to be. I'm buying into the way the club are going forward."

Well done Brucey.
 
Can you imagine the first introduction? "Robert, The Bruce".

He was obviously destined to be a footballer then, plying his trade on a "smooth grassy place"
 
I think we can assume a certain Mr Bruce is going nowhere and will in fact be signing up again for a while yet with the business he is doing for us.

Nugent has changed his game since he was last there and Vardy, if he plays like he did last season and not the one before it, will be.


Ifs and buts, which is why we're after a striker.


Put it this way, if you stayed up with Graham, Sagbo, Fryatt, Jelavic and Long then there is absolutely no reason why we can't with Nugent and Vardy.

Jelavic and Long are far far superior to anything you have to offer up front. Add our other strikers you mention, that makes our strike force approximately 75 million times better than yours. (rough estimate)
