Following on from my last post, another thing that we're having to get our collective heads around in these parts is the daft transfer speculation that's currently surrounding us. Now, for all you Manchester United and Arsenal fans being linked with every player under the sun might not be that unusual, but given that previously we might only be linked with the odd Colchester United player or two the sheer quantity of players we're apparently about to sign seems quite amazing. And, quite frankly, there's more chance of me clinching a lucrative three-year deal that the KC than some of this lot.
All of these players have been linked with the Tigers in the past couple of weeks either in the papers, sports websites or those daft 'my mate saw...' rumours so beloved by radio phone ins. So, expect to see gurning next to Phil Brown and holding their new City shirts proudly aloft...
Mikel Alonso, Nicky Hunt, Ali Al Habsi, Jan Tauer, Bonaventure Kalou, Antti Niemi, Peter Halmosi, Jimmy Bullard, Peter Crouch, Colin Kazim-Richards, Harry Kewell, Anthony Gardner, Jurgen Samuel, Frazier Campbell, Marcus Bent, Kevin Philips, Shola Ameobi, Lee Naylor, David Healey, Christian Vieri, David Nugent, Neil Clement, Markleshark, Danny Shittu, Magnus Troest, Roger Johnson, Danny Simpson, Jon Walters, Geovanni, Steven Gerrard, Ivan Campo, James Beattie, Fran Mérida, Stelios Giannakopoulos, and Jason Koumas.
To name but a few.
