    In the wake of the comments coming out of Hull city this week, when are these mardy people going to wake up and smell the coffee?
    My god they have short memories, its not been too long since these jumped up wanna be's were gutting our club, taking the manager and his staff, then they came back for our star striker, then our winger, then our star defender...all for bargain prices....now that things have changed, all we get is the biggest whinge in history..snide remarks and bitter inerviews..The fact is, if any of your players want out, they WILL go...fact, end of...the same thing applies to our club.. if our players want to go, they go ...so nicky and co, grow up and be professional, rather than holding a grudge ...its embarrassing and makes you look small time with an inferiority complex.. If ANY players head is turned, he is no use to you ,thats just life..cutting your nose off to spite your face is pathetic..The bitter obsession with all to do with pearson on here from hull posters just shows them for what they are.... small time...I recall a lot of disappionted leicester fans wishing nigel and his staff and our players well when they jumped ship...its a pity hull fans cannot be as big and dignified...but they have demonstrated its beyond them....

    Hulls board sound like a bunch of children throwing the toys out the pram after they didnt get their own way. No wonder Nigel wanted out, the fans didnt get behind him. When Pearson left here to go to them we didnt throw the toys out, we could of said were not doing business with them but no we loaned them Hobbs and Waghorn and eventually sold them Hobbs and Fryatt. Fair enough if they want us to put an extra couple of quid on the end of the price tag but making statements like they have been shows the clearly have no class

    I find it hilarious Jimmy Bullard is about to win 3M off them and its Nigel's fault for sacking him

    If you want to make a decent bid, then make it, if you want to take the piss, we'll tell you to **** off.

    Deluded ****. <doh>

    Dont think Hulls board are doing much wrong to be fair. They want the best prices they can get, and if they dont get them, their best players will stay. Every player has a price, but in this short January widow, the prices increase dramatically. Its a sellers market ! We will have to pay over the odds for anybody we want unless they have a get out clause like Billy Sharp.

    Yes i admit our bid wasnt that good but all we was doing is testing the water. But the way your club have responded and doing through the media shows no class. During the whole Nigel Pearson saga our club was completely silent until Nigel was appointed while your club ran its mouth off at every available opportunity. And Remember if there are any clauses in the contracts Nigel knows about them

    If 'showing no class' as you put it, means keeping our players then I couldn't care less.

    Take the piss and you'll get the response your approach warrants, it was nothing more than mischief making anyway.

    Which is fine, as you just managed to show the player you don't rate him that highly.

    Which hardly matters, as I don't think Nigel realistically thinks he'll get him anyway.

    As i said Nigel knows all of your players contracts and if there are clause in their. Maybe Hull are bluffing

    But personally i think a fair price for Stewart would be 2-3M

    Who cares what's fair, we don't want to sell him, so if you want him, you'll have to move up to unfair, which I don't think you will do.

    To be fair, the low bid for Sharp proves my point that Pearson intends to get value for money from ALL his signings. This was why the bid for Stewart was low, not to cause "mischief" as the childish Adam Pearson claimed.

    Who cares its Hull City....Not Leicester City - the only club i care about. Hull/Leeds/Brighton/Oadby Town fans can be bitter/happy/spiteful/rude etc... but i dont care frankly.

    To the point in hand - the transfers. It was obvious the NP would go in for a couple (most managers always poach from previous clubs...my god i wish that wasnt true about Craig Levein): if the player wants to leave then it takes a lot of tact to convince him that for the benefit of his current club, Hull City, they will only sell for the correct price. If that can be achieved then there is no loss of harmony in the dressing room and i think Hull are perfectly entitled to rject any bid should they wish too. However if they cant and their motives for rejecting are pureless based on spite then it will have a negative impact on the squad. But thats Hulls problem and not ours.

    I dont think we will either, had Sven still be in charge then i think we would offer you around 5M, but Nigel wont do that as he isnt as stupid and spends money more wisely

    Nigel found Stewart so he can always find another.

    To be fair, I think there is a difference in the two situations.

    When Hull came for Fryatt, Hobbs, Waghorn etc., they were deemed surplus to requirements by Sven and so he didn't really care if they left - therefore, there was no fuss. Now, Barmby regards the likes of Stewart as important players so it's understandable that they will dig their heels and don't want to sell. And if Hull's owner is as rich as they claim, then they don't need the cash either. I would expect us to do the same were the the roles reversed. However, it was a bit petty of A Person to come out like he did and at no point did he say they wouldn't sell, just not at £1 million. The first thing that will do is alert other clubs and it does make you wonder if that was his intention in the first place. We experienced the same thing with Colin Sextone all summer over the Maynard debacle whereby he kept jabbering on about how the bid wasn't enough etc. when he was just trying to get a higher price and alert some Premier League clubs. Not saying that is what he's doing, but just something to consider

    The only way I can see us getting Stewart would be if he were to hand in a transfer request but that would be unlikely and we could probably get better value for money elsewhere.

    No club wants to sell their best players. But the truth is, if Stewart wants out, he will leave. Just like Pearson did.

    All this anyone but leicester BS. is feeble and bad business...trying to hang on to players who want out will not work..its posturing from people who should know better...if barmby was offered the spurs job next season you would not see him for dust...the players know it ...so they will do whats best for them...like the whole world does...

    Right i dont think we will sign anyone from Hull but if we are i can only see 2 ways of that happening

    1) We make a stupid offer for them which i cant see happening
    2) The player wants to come here and forces a move through which would seem the most likely but depends on the player.

    But if the if that does happen it will only sour relations between the clubs even further

    Childish Nigel Pearson publicly stated Cameron was worth 3 times that while he was manager here so for him to bid at a fraction of his true value is pathetic. It's like walking into a shop and offering the bloke behind the counter 50p for 20 ***s, he'll just tell you to **** off.

    Don't you think Pearson knows which players want to join him from Hull? Perhaps the initial bid was a signal for Stewart to start making noises about wanting away.

    By the time the "real" bid comes in, Hull will be resigned to losing him.
