  1. A 6 month loan makes sense. I don't want any more permanent signings of players of this sort of age
  2. Totally agree. I want to see us start building for the future, no more stop gap signings
  3. Well at least he is better placed than most parents financially to help his lad out. I hope we sign him anyway
  4. Fancy going to all that trouble ferreting out those facts then making that blunder at the end lol
  5. Can’t say I feel any enthusiasm whatsoever. There is a serious disconnect somewhere
  6. Yes absolutely bargain basement
  7. It’s much more damaging for 8 year olds to be getting idiotic instructions from the sidelines from parents who couldn’t play for toffee. Diddums if these 30 year old pros can’t take it
  8. If we were really serious about this we would get some quick business done.
  9. Its set up nicely for another damp squib draw at home in front of the TV cameras and a delirious away following isn't it
  10. 32 years old NO THANKYOU
  11. Two things 1. I'm not sure he will maintain his pace and fitness for 2 more years on top of this season 2. If we go up this season thats 2 years in the Championship. I'm not sure he would be a regular starter I accept though that maybe we couldn't get him to sign a 1 year extension because there were Championship clubs prepared to offer that or rather if that was all that was on the table he would take his chances in the summer I don't know. I'm not that bothered about it though, if the club think its the right thing to do then fair enough
  12. I think 2 years is a year too long to be honest. Sorry to be a bubble burster
  13. Obviously we should not over pay. But we have to be prepared to pay the going rate or we will get nowhere. I remain convinced that the answer is in finding players that not everybody else is also aware of. That means looking outside of people coming to the end of, or at the end of their contracts at Championship and league 1 clubs. Obviously that carries more of a risk but the people who really achieve in life are the ones that are prepared to back their judgement and take a risk
  14. I don’t think he loves Hourihane at all. He’s hooked him off quite a few times now. I just don’t think we have had better options. He will be replaced as soon as possible. Warne really rates Bird though and he would play ahead of Hourihane if we had another good attacking midfielder
  15. He won't come cheap for a club like Hull
  16. I'd rather it was news from the club. And as you say, about incomings not about such and such wanting to sign Cashin etc
  17. Remember the other player we were linked to that then ended up going to Charlton, Alfie May. I think is quite likely Warne was disappointed not to get him. Surely if we are interested we aren't going to lose out again?
  18. He’s already in our all time appearance list. Imagine how many appearances he would have made if he had not had those ACL injuries
  19. Yeah and John Gregory was vastly different to this unknown kid. He was a senior pro who had played about 250 games in the first division and an FA cup finalist
  20. I don't know but I think we should be finding our own players and then developing them like Peterborough do. If we do take a loan then the player has to be better than Bird, Fornah, Thompson, Hourihane, Smith and Sibley. If Warne and Thomas think he is then fair enough. Just seen Gabby's post above which he was obviously typing as I typed mine that gives ground for belief he might be a permanent signing, if so then great
  21. Cashin is also like Ross MacLaren. Thats where we are at the moment, Cashin is a third division player. However he does play like Todd and might one day get close to him. Toddy was much, much quicker though and used his pace. I read a book by Kevin Keegan who says 'Toddy was a 90 minute nightmare. He could out run you, out jump you and when he had got you thoroughly demoralised he would come at you with the ball' I don't think Keegan would have struggled with Cashin quite so much but he's getting there and its great to see. Great that we might not be selling him after all as well
