    BBC are just getting worse, poor journalism, but not surprising these days.

    He's reacted to concerns on social media. Quickly.

    That's not poor journalism.

    The initial post stated Hull City whereas SM in the attached clip never mentioned Hull City, then they had to change it. They should have never included Hull City in the initial post because SM never said which team it was. For me, when BBC have to change what they have posted when clearly there was no mention of the club, then it is poor journalism.

    Fair enough, I just took them as making an inference which will likely be proved correct.

    We bought out first one million pound player from Wigan. Caleb Folan, and we had him on loan when he was a youngster at Leeds. Big debut at Blackpool in a midweek ? televised game and he got carried off on a stretcher before the end. A one million pound transfer fee was massive for Hull City at the time and a real signing of intent from the club. From memory wasn't Jay Jay Ochacha in the stand that night mulling over wether to sign for us or not?
    With that in mind, if Hughes does sign for the money bandied about, then again it is a sizable amount paid for a League 1 centre half, I hope the lad has the same effect and success at City as Folan did, and I presume he will be in the stands tonight. So lets see a decent display and a bit if atmosphere so the lad gets a good impression and doesnt go to bed tonight with second thoughts.

    The centre is nice and there are a few really nice places on the outskirts. The thing is, when it turns into a ****ty area, it really is a really, nasty ****ty area.

    All of UK is becoming a dump in most places....Hull largely is a hell hole now. It was not 20/30 years ago.

    Of all the players we've been linked with this Summer, Zambrano and Hughes these two look great - I'm always wary of YouTube since Kamel Ghilas, but Zambrano particularly looks brilliant

    havent had one for maybe 10 years? portable one at spire. they might have changed a bit since then but the noises they made added to the claustrophobia. as if the 1960's doctor who sound studio had started working on a horror movie or worked out a way to drive you insane.

    ive had a few ct scans since then and they are miles better. still a bit weird. especially when the fluid warms you up.

    to keep on topic i wonder if any new signings will have to have these scans?

    Name a City that isn’t, Hull is a bit of a ****hole, some of the outskirts look good, but the Centre isn’t great.
