I know it's been whispered for a while but there are some strong rumours today that we are going to trigger a release clause in the 30 year old's contract at Hull.
He'll certainly fit the DM bill.
Just type his name into google and the story is everywhere.
Also, prompted by Dungeon Master's post, it appears we've made a bid of £4m for Matty James from the bin robbers.

Not the one that got sent off in a friendly ?

Baird, Anya, Johnson and Mason Bennett for me out of this game. Forsyth, Olsson all pretty good. Martin not turned on by this game has much work to do. Y-man good too. The old semi-successful signings could well turn out to be successful - like Baird and Pearce proved last season.

Hanson looked much more assured 2nd half with Baird and Pearce either side of him.
Don't know what that tells us about our new signings ?
Still settling in, I guess

When was the last time we had an unbeaten pre season? I know it doesn't mean a lot other than match fitness but I am curious.

Highlights folks.

Tommo, 1992/3 season we hammered everybody pre season and then proceeded to only get 3 points from the first 7 games. We eventually finished 8th. A bit like our last season. Paul Simpson scored a hat trick in one game and still finished on the losing side.

Never get too excited with friendly games.
Surprised Bennett and Roos are still at Derby.
I said to someone at work Hector and Roy Mc wouldn't be regulars in this side, maybe get 10 games from each of them.
Tbf to them they are both getting their pensions

I think Rowett is getting a good look at some of the pretenders in this squad. Russell and Blackman not shining against poor oppo can't have gone unnoticed
