Ameobi hit and miss? Compared to who in our recent past? But I agree on the others, I still have hopes for Noone but the others are a waste of time.

    FFS. This isn't Behind The Stands. Most folk come on here to read bullshit rumours and conjecture, with the odd bit of accurate stuff thrown in. It's boring as fuck reading your personal squabbles.

  • Sure it's that Mandela effect in full flow here that we all seem to be OK with this. It's a fucking travesty and complete shitshow. He's our most prolific striker by a country mile, has been

    We've just won promotion using a gaggle of players nobody else wanted, littered with injury plagued loanees and players that were cast as cart horses, one trick ponies and generally weak as piss.

SA hit and miss, yes. Undoubtedly talented but inconsistent. That's why he's at Bolton and not Newcastle etc etc

For me Noone is the most disappointing. Nothing to his game beyond cutting inside and overhitting a cross. I had high hopes for him but I'd probably play Buckley ahead of him. 

Buckley is poor as well if we are honest 

I was hoping for more from Wildshut but sadly he’s not been great either

I'm not saying he's a prem player, he's an above average championship player but is consistently our best attacker, game after game. Yes within each game he will do something that leaves us scratching our heads, but the rest of his play is a championship version of okocha. As a side note, if we are talking hit and miss, okocha held the prem record 1 season for number of shots without scoring, loads of wasted attacks ended with his wild 25 yard shots miles off target, I remember there was loads of frustration at the time.

Did he go a season without a goal or did I dream that?

He did. Then scored a 30 yard free kick first game of the following season v charlton at home

Certainly our best attacking option but not game after game as you put

Never scored for Hull either 

They don't remember him as fondly as we did

I'm struggling to think of a game when 1 of our other attackers has outshone him except when he's been injured like QPR and WBA (sublime assist for 1st goal). He's not just the best winger going forward by a mile, he's the best defensively too.

Two of our youngsters have gone out on loan till January........Wood to Southport & Politic to Salford.

Very much in favour of this as even non-league is of a higher standard than the under 23's & as well as giving them experience, it might give us an idea about if they are going to make the step up. ( pity it's Salford though !! )

Stephen Ireland left club by mutual consent ....What a waste of time and energy that was.

A punt that never worked out. That's where we're at though. I doubt it cost us much.

Only Grounds, O'Neill, Wildschutt to send back on loan/release now in January. I wouldn't be down hearted if Williams went back either

Grounds and Wildschutt contracted til end of season.  O'neil and dyer til January (and Doidge if we can't afford to pay for him)

Edited by burnden

Would be crazy letting williams go. I think he's getting better and it's unrewarding being part of our cm at the moment. I think Lowe does a great job but other than that it's tough
