Hoskins to Bournemouth - allegedly a fee has been agreed [merged]

[seagullsovergrimsby]

FFS Murray, making us lose Hoskins

This is my theory as well , the fee we get from Bournemouth allows Gus to buy Muzza back from Palace for half a mill.

 

[JonathanLivingstonSeagull]

WTF

that is all

wait no it isn't. f*** this for a laugh, hoskins is a talented player we have seen nothing like the best of yet, he's not had an honest chance. what are we playing at?

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Will be gutted if Hosky goes... (maybe they want more room in the Physio room for Owen.).... serious tho he does look good when he plays.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

I understood that just because we have, albeit allegedly, accepted a bid for Hosky, does not mean that he will be leaving.

He knows Gus is here for the long haul - and the manager clearly does not fancy him. So why stay ? - time to move on. Shame - but there you go.

 

[shaolinpunk]

Seems he found out on twitter which is abit shit for him! Echo tweeted £350k rejected £450k excepted.

*accepted

I think his injuries this year haven't filled gus with confidence... they don't seem to be injuries you can put a time frame on.. they've all been the type of injuries that are a nightmare to deal with for a medical team because you can't directly see or locate the pain, its all been unexplained niggles and shooting pains down his right side ranging from his knee, thigh, hip ..

donno its not like when buckley or lua lua gets injured and they've broken a leg or tore a hamstring and will be out for a few weeks... if they can't tell anything about these niggly sharp shooting pains then its hard to know how to improve the situation...

maybe he just prefers drinking tea in the medical room with vicente?

 

[Muzzy]

Probably wouldn't pass a medical then?

By the sound of his twitter it doesn't sound like he wants too leave,

I have only just got back from my injuries and looking to bang some goals in. Would be disappointed if it is true.

I certainly hope he doesn't go as we havent seen the best of him by far (and he seemed to show a lot of promise in pre-season), but things dont appear to encouraging at the moment...

i do wonder sometimes with gus,first cooky now hoskins

well he's meant to be fit and on the return now so might currently pass, but maybe gus feels its not worth taking a gamble on it reoccurring.. i think he's quality and will obviously score goals when fit but the type of injuries he's getting don't sound like the type of thing that just disappears. To me it sounds like the unexplained, re-occurring, niggly type injuries that plague players careers i.e owen, vicente, hargreaves.. although i hope i'm wrong because there's no doubting his ability.

I just cannot believe this, Hoskins is one of Gus's signings and must be in his long term plans, only way is if Gus has what he sees as a better striker lined up, but still I think he is one short.

 

[OSRGull]

If we resign Murray with the money we get then I'll be more than happy, won't happen but I'm annoyed at the fact we're selling one of the decent players(when fit)

 

[terryberry1]

Could be a silver lining afterall, theres a rumour on twitter now that a Harley bid has been accepted by Ballmouth. If only......

Absolutely. We've nursed him back from injury and I'd be less than happy if/when he starts banging goals in elsewhere

Cook was great business for someone who had played 3 games for us.

Hoskins he obviously dosent fancy as much as he thought, sometimes its not that you dont want to keep players, but a decent offer comes in and you can get someone more suitable to what we need.

If it enables us to get a more suitable partner for CMS in then its a good sale.

 

[rocker959]

Will await confirmation but will be very suprised and saddened if true.

 

[Mileoakman]

Something doesn't add up here. After the Peterborough game on Seagull Player Gus goes on, (about 2 miniutes into the interview), about the decision to bring on Toby over Hoskins. He says it was a tough decision because he knows the quality, strength and power of Hoskins that he gives us now and in the future. What happened in 4 days to change that. As someone else said any replacement better be bloody good.

 

[empire]

so he would rather get rid of hoskins over barnes? sorry meant i would rather get rid of barnes than hoskins

but making our squad weaker?listen in gus i trust,but just find on this instance(unless others coming in),our squad is weaker,i have watched most resie games and cooky was a genuine talent that was only going to get better.
