They are having a good transfer window 😔
Hull have added Billy Sharp, Fabio Carvalho and now probably Ryan Giles this month.
They are investing but I guess the test is how they cope if they don’t go up soon.
Hull and Coventry have spend loads this season , not sure if it will get them anywhere though.
Giles lost eight on the trot when he was last here, why would he have wanted to come back?
Our cunning plan to recruit a team of Ryans is falling apart!
Good point about that net spend

City on the other hand

Definitely in their last two seasons I'd say and I can't think of any balance the books type sales off the top of my head during that time either.
Rosenior has a very good reputation within the game, but I'd say that, for the money they've spent, Hull could be viewed as under performing so far this season.
From football perspective agree Bob, but he apparently really enjoyed his time here and is still in touch with a number of our players. His and KM partners both really close still and I suspect if Kieffer was here it'd be even more of a pull. However, we were never going to be in a position to match a loan with a mandatory purchase at the end.
Increasingly this will become the case every year, the gulf between the Prem and Champ will just continue to grow. Assuming the bottom 3 go down - Luton maybe not but the other two have been in the Prem over the last 10 years for long enough to be at a different financial level.
Good on them for giving it a go, certainly some great championship signings but I’d imagine they are more likely getting points deducted and in league 1 in a few years than in the Prem.
