AFCB here - I would be suprised too boys!

Could be good for you though...you must have someone good coming in??

They better be bloody good then! If WH goes to you & stays off the treatment table, I reckon he'll be a success. I'd like the lad to stay tbh, but if not - I hope he's a big hit for y'all.

Surely before we agree a fee, we needed to have sat down with Hoskins to ask him about it? This is shocking.

This club...

This seems very odd. Like most people here, I was looking forward to him being fit and getting a run of games. Maybe Gus thinks Toby will be a better option for the rest of the season

This MUST mean we've got someone lined up to replace him... right?

Additional thought. Maybe we already had enough in the bank to afford Vokes' wages?

Maybe with Vokes, CMS, Barnes, Adgestein Gus feels we have sufficient options up top. Perhaps the money will go on Reyes?

Can we tempt Bournemouth to splash out on Harley too please.

£50 would buy Harley

The speculation saying that this is to make way for Kitson coming in leaves me feeling quite gloomy.
I just hope this is more bullshit.

Even if we were to let him go, I can't see why he'd go for a loss. It's not like he has made no impact at all. He's been unlucky with injury and seems to have a great positive attitude. Judging by his tweets he doesn't want out either.

Hoskins knows nothing about it on twitter i am told.

Im quite excited, if true we must have someone lined up to come in that fits the bill more than Hoskins.

I would have liked to have seen Hoskins more to make a judgement, 1 half of football you cant tell anything

He cant be showing up well in training i guess...

His glance on for Buckley's goal was very "quality", he saw Buckley's run and knew exactly what he was doing. Not quite as obvious as Calderon's screamer, it's true. Maybe that's why you missed it.

should have been dealt with by the defender, but the flick was good i admit. he just doesn't seem like a threat at this level, plus he wears UGG BOOTS ffs.

I don't like the way people just get dumped like this in football. It tends to come back to bite you in the arse. He has had injury problems but surely he has shown promise when played and provides us with a bit of Championship experience? Don't care if someone better is coming in, Hoskins will have good reason to feel a bit f***ed off with BHA if this materialises.

Hoping its Nicky Maaynard coming in. He has seen the light and realised Wigan is a bad move and Gus has pursuaded him that we are going places.

More realisically its Vokes:glare:
