Think new set up already makes us way more attractive, pretty sure club will be lining up a couple of high profile signings.
Expect more to be paid off once the New regime make their mind up to do so.
Have we given up on the extra middle this year ? Squad numbers would suggest so.
Maybe the likes of laidlaw, Gardner, staveley etc stepping up & impressing in training ? Really hope so

“ I was approached in July about a move to Hull” the fact you chose to stay and see your contract out means money isn’t everything? “ money in a short career is always important but so is winning. Being in a winning team is the pinnacle of playing” Hull have struggled for 5 years so the attraction isn’t as high as other clubs? “ This is a short career and you can’t be in teams for 3-4 years in hope, you need to join a winning team and add to it. I can’t see me choosing a team that won’t be challenging” LL.

Out of interest, the most popular toys at Christmas way back in 1985 were:

1 Transformers
2 Cabbage Patch Kids
3 Pound Puppies
4 Atari 2600
5 Care Bears
6 Rainbow Brite
7 GI Joe
8 Skateboard
9 Teddy Ruxpin
10 Trivial Pursuit

I think I got a Radio/Cassette Recorder.
