    Fair enough, the evidence is there for all to see, at the end of the day I don't really care about an apology, I just wanted to see if you would actually be decent and admit you were wrong, I would. Just next time anyone has an opinion, don't aggressively shut it down, then change your tune to suit the narrative for your own personal gratification, because you'll get found out through what you've wrote and look stupid.

    I thought the topic was football not inter City rivalry in Stoke?

    Which, if it is a loan, puts him in the same bracket as Austin Samuels.

    Odusina be a hell of a signing. Superb against us. Quality L2 CB from what I gather....

    Would suspect this could be a go'er due to the current uncertainty surrounding the managerial situation there. Better to go to a club where a manager wants you, than be inherited by someone who may not want you or you may not get on with.

    I think loans will be key for us this year with Hughes connections and Gent’s background looking after loans. And it’s not only the Hughes factor I think for these signings big crowds can only be a factor in championship and premiership clubs placing their players
    Most loans don’t happen till close to the season starts

    He probably asked them to pass the ball around and play football instead of lumping it and hurling long throws, and the poor darlings couldn't cope.

    If we are honest Hughes hasn’t been a success everywhere. But all his managerial experience is at a high level and in the short time he has been here he has been different class

    He was brilliant up at their place. By far their best player on the night.

    Too right. Pulis makes Deluded Derek look like an expert at total football

    The attraction of Hughes seems to have been a key factor in getting Harratt.

    Imagine being a young striker and having Mark Hughes tell you, 'you remind me of myself'.

    Somehow I can't see the words coming from Derek Adams having the same inspirational effect

    He meant “culture shock”, as in UKs city of culture. Aka we’ve got loads more going for us, than pikelets and Robbie Williams. ;)

    Hughes led them to their highest ever position 3 years in a row, playing much better football than Pulis ever did

    maybe he just popped in the video of his volley in practice at Man City. The young fella would have taken note of it.
