It seems it was the Pearson factor that persuaded Ellis to come.

McRae, Howes and Pearson had a Skype call with Ellis, and as soon as Pearson started his bit, Ellis was keen to sign. For Pearson to convince Ellis that Hull was the place to be, then there are definitely even further plans afoot to push us to the top of this league

Anyone can come out with

"3 signings already in the bag", safe in the knowledge that with player movement, there is a high probabilty that just about EVERY SL club will have 4 or 5 different players at the start of each season.

If you know something, then say so. Don't let on that you do know something then dont have the nads to disclose what it is.

Tell you what, I'll start the ball rolling shall I.

I am aware Hull have been sniffing around a young british centre. here's a clue. Likely to be a mate of JW and named after a west sussex castle.

Not saying we are going to sign him, just that Hull have been sniffing.

How's about you post names so I don't have to google 'West Sussex Castles'

joe arundel?

Ah come on, you must know he's talking about Mr Bramber

As i see it .................

Is it fair to say that Mr pearson is himself the greatest signing we have ever made at FC?????????

Because is a way of dropping a hint rather than the

"I know something you dont and I am not telling" type post some feel the need to put on.
