Hoskins

[GingerBeerMan]

Is his contract up?
Is he being offered a new one?
Do people think he'll accept it?
Will Oscar Garcia want to play him?

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Club took up a one year option, so yes, he is registered for this season.

 

[GreersElbow]

No.
Extension.
Maybe, appears to have divided people.
I'll quickly call Oscar and ask if he will play him despite his busted knee.

 

[Ulloa's Soul Patch]

I thought he got offered a 6-month contract with an option to extend, and accepted it.

Why on earth do people ask these questions when the answers can easily be found by searching the club website?

The guy has a serious knee injury. If he can get a better deal elsewhere now than what we have offered then perhaps he shouldn't be in football but on the Apprentice or even running the government!

Because people would rather never have to visit that abomination of a place called the official site, it's an insult to Tim Berners-Lee, an insult to anyone in the web industry and an offence to the eyes of those who stumble upon it. But we'll done you for actually finding some worthwhile (?) information on it.

Totally. As for Hoskins, jury is out for me. Difficult to see how he will get too many opportunities

 

[Albumen]

He was great for a few games when fit.

 

[Daffy Duck]

As much as I like what little we've seen of him, maybe someone new coming into the club would look at the number of appearances he's made and possibly decide it's time to move him on as soon as he's fit again.

was he ?

That website makes me feel ill. I did do a Google search though and nothing was thrown up.

 

[StonehamPark]

was he ?

I thought he was very good apart from a dozen missed opportunities probably due to nerves?

I've always back Hoskins, I really think he will be very good once fit and has a couple of games under his belt this season.

 

[Rookie]

Still have high hopes for Hoskins, good movement and football brain. Hopefully he comes back from injury soonish and gets some minutes under his belt to impress Oscar

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Hoskins is incredibly generously rated by many,because he gets injured every five minutes. He didn't play more games, because he got injured every time he did play.

I don't believe spending two years constantly injured is bad luck. Personally, I would have released him this summer to free up a space in the squad for a better striker. As it is, we have 4 now and to sign another, one will need to leave. I would have just released him and forgotten about him.

Me too. Would love him to be a big success. He deserves a break after his injuries.

Lucky you are not in charge then. Look at his injuries, that is some bad luck. Not like he has got a dodgy hamstring or something, they are all different injuries

Must have forced Dicker to injure him last summer

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

I was pleased the Club took up the extra year on his contract. I have no idea whether Hoskins will fit in with the new regime - but it was the right thing to do.
