Jesus, tough crowd. As I recall he was pretty much excellent during his 2 and a bit seasons with us.
He was brilliantly consistant IIRC. |

Luongo was great but he did have spells of being quite wank. He used to infuriate me at times but man, at his best he was sublime.

And one of only a handful of players in that team that had any kind of career above league 1 level with Stephens the only one getting game time in the PL. |

Just racking my brains now as to who has gone on to play at Championship level from that side, a few more than I thought:
Wes
Byrne
Toffolo
N Thompson
L Thompson
Gladwin (albeit injury hit/short lived)
Luongo
M Smith
The lesser featured loanees of John Swift and Amari Bell have also carved out decent championship careers.

^Harry Chapman (Blackburn winger) to Bradford is the only other signing which has stood out for me
Another of their signings in Richie Smallwood can be added to that list - 42 Championship appearances last season as Hulls captain! |

Yeah that's a real statement of intent by them. |

Completely agree - he was unreal on his day. Just very infuriating when he had an off day and he had lots of them in the run up to the playoffs in 14-15. |

It went a bit wrong after the Asia cup.
Not as wrong as Kasim

Who seems to have rather disappeared into the ether after leaving his most recent club in Iraq. Although he did get acall up for the Iraq national team in January this year? |

This seems as good as anywhere, 17 years ago today Super Sammy Parkin left to go to Ipswich.
Fuck I am getting old!
