To the above about apparent bitterness.

Yes he didn't want to replace sala. He also said that we are a big club and don't know what the future holds.

To me it was a plee to come and get me. But timing was off

That’s how I saw it at the time.

That's ridiculous ! I don't care how good the source is , £10m is far too much for a text and you should ask for your money back.

Seriously , though, I'm very suspicious because this player claimed that we tried to buy him in January but Sir Neil denied it and said we had no interest .
At the time it seemed that he'd made it up to try and drum up interest from Premieship clubs and so he might be doing that again .
I don't think the fee is either unreasonable or beyond us at this stage, but I'm not a hundred per cent certain he'd suit us.

I'm dubious about someone who seems to have been trying to play both ends against the middle previously, but I will say that he's around the mark we should be signing

Could it be a case of JB saying ‘Not just yet, come back in the summer though’
NW would have to deny that he nearly joined us if he had every intention of trying to get him now.
Who knows though?

How Come your so sure it's fake news then? if you don't mind me asking, sure I seen a thread on here yesterday about someone else has been told that Jarrod Bowen is in talks, Silly season at moment but may be truth in it but may not be only people who know are at the club.

Nins27, bit pathetic really, if you personally don't believe what people have been told fair enough but why go on and on?

Wait in minute, I remember another clown who used to go on and on , are you someone in disguise?

So it's 'fact' because you believe your ex-mod ex-pilot friend who gets his information second hand from SB? That is not fact it is opinion. My opinion is after doubting Annis several times in the past myself I have always found him to be far more right than wrong when it comes to all things CCFC.

Unless he is at least 80% certain the information is correct then he doesn't share the info. I would also add that SB is not exactly a big player at CCFC anymore. All decisions are made by VT, Dalman, NW and Choo, SB is peripheral although I wouldn't put it past Annis to have received that text from SB ;)

Couldn't agree more. Nins27 is entitled to his opinion but it is based on third hand information and is not detailed enough to make personal claims about AA.

Ffs Annis does not do fake news. He shares what he has heard if it is appropriate. What he can’t do is guarantee a deal will happen. We all love/hate this time of year because there are so many rumours and we all want exciting signings. Always causes a buzz.
With Bowen comes goals. He would be a good signing.

Very good point which often gets overlooked.

If the club make an enquiry for a player it is us showing an interest. Most of the time we won't make the signing for a number of reasons fee, wages, agent, player or other clubs. If we don't sign the player that doesn't mean our interest is automatically 'fake news' it is just the deal didn't go any further.

I don't doubt AA had a text but I am wondering if this has got any real legs.Would Hull sell to a rival club?Surely a player of this calibre would be attracting Prem clubs.

A stopped clock is right twice a day, and whilst I'm reluctant to agree with this nins27, who's obviously a bit of a knobber, I suspect that whilst the tip is probably valid, it could be a red herring from the player himself - thus giving it apparent credibility - either to self advertise generally because he fancies a move, or because he wants to set up a move to Cardiff himself.

Maybe I'm attributing devious motives unfairly, but it's been my experience that people are devious bastards to be honest .
Anyway, even if my suspicions are correct, it could still work for us since he's the right standard of player and you could say that it indicates a certain intelligence which,if converted into game winning strategies could be a good thing. Could also be a bad thing though because such cynical expedience in a man is a two edged sword !

Id be excited if this comes off. A natural right sided forward/winger whos left footed and cuts in like an arjen robben or mo salah does.

If murphy went wouldnt be too bothered as mendez laing is more dangerous on the left side cutting in on his right foot but murphy and mendez laing competing for that spot then would be great options.

Just had a nose on one of the Hull forums and they seem to think Bowen will go although no mention of where to.Apparently this is their first season without parachute payments so are having a bit of a revamp.Fraizer Cambell being one of those that have been told he can find a new club.

Bowen plays right wing, so if he were to come in it would be at the expense of Mendez Laing. Very different player to Mendez, obviously tucks in on the left foot to get a shot off/ cross. Looks tricky in small spaces, but also looks like he loses the ball a lot. Personally, unless this is Etheridge money being spent I dont think it's a smart move. I personally think Mendez Laing is our best player and a back up right wing in the cheap would do fine. Striker is obviously the priority.
