Set Piece Scott Fry to leave the club and link up with Birmingham City.

See if we sell Fernandes to England for big money and Raskin to serie a then the dahls and doehkis of the world will take note of that.

Chermiti is getting big attention from being a dud to £30m player so we're showing we can be a platform for these players to learn their trade and move onto bigger better things.

Raskin is a great example of
How we can improve a players career. he's at World Cup for one of best teams in Europe and he's showing up well both the now and before they went in freindlies and play offs.

Dahl could well looo at Raskin and think that's how I get into Norway team and gwt a big move to top 5 league

30 Jun 2026 08:04:11
Doekhi, 28 year old mate, is already considered a great player who will now make his big money move. How on earth is playing for the team, who finished 3rd in the league and who appear to be selling their most valuable assets, going to improve him?

Stevie, lots of clubs can provide that pathway, and in better leagues as well. It won't harm our chances, but given the choice of us or PSV, then they will probably still choose the more well proven path.

30 Jun 2026 14:40:36
Stevie, you are right, it does make us a more attractive prospect for players when they see players making big money moves regularly.
However, that being said, until we play regularly in the CL and can up the wages we pay to match PSV, Porto, Benfica, etc., we will never be able to compete with them.


That has to be the target over the next decade to grow the player trading model so that one day we can go toe to toe with the teams.
We have owners who have more money than them, so just need to find ways to grow our revenue.

30 Jun 2026 16:01:08
Correct, Wishy, and I think the clever balancing point will not be to sell everyone at the first window where decent money is offered. We need to look to sell one or possibly two whilst keeping the others to build a squad to reach that level.

30 Jun 2026 16:12:10
Wishy, I'm sure our wage bill is higher than PSV, Ajax, Feyenoord, Sporting Lisbon. Not sure with Porto or Benfica.

30 Jun 2026 18:16:27
You're right, Angus, Stevie, I'd imagine PSV will be able to pay their biggest players more than we are able to pay, but they will have a lot of youth on low wages that brings the overall wage bill down, same with Porto and Benfica.

30 Jun 2026 22:17:53
Definitely not higher than PSV, they've got 2 players on 35k, 2 players on 45k odds, 2 players on over 50k and the boy Dest is on 75k.

29 Jun 2026 20:26:47
Why would he leave Hull in the EPL to go to see the point if he was a blue nose?

29 Jun 2026 20:42:08
Because they have told him he isn't in their plans for next year; because they need funds to plug the FFP gap and he was the first who got an offer; probably many more reasons that I can't be bothered thinking about.

29 Jun 2026 21:04:13
Supposedly, they are selling two players to meet their Financial Fair Play deadline. It's a weird one, because the owner has money to play with, but they are hamstrung - like Newcastle, for example.

29 Jun 2026 21:36:58
Coz he knows I have a home in Croatia and he can stay there when he wants to have a holiday.

29 Jun 2026 21:45:04
Tom, what the word in Croatia about him then? Any good?

29 Jun 2026 22:05:17
Tom, I've never been to Croatia, but I played in goals until I retired from football at 12 years old in pursuit of my golfing career, if you could extend your hospitality then I would be more than happy to come and visit.
P.S. I'll fill the fridge up and promise to keep the singing to a minimum.

30 Jun 2026 00:15:54
They could've told him he's going to be mo2 next season, and they're signing a new keeper, so he is free to go if he wants to.

29 Jun 2026 10:57:45
Reporter for Hull Daily Mail saying on X that we're 'on the cusp' of signing Ivor Pandur for around £6mil and Butland heading the other way.

29 Jun 2026 10:21:45
The italian club are asking for 17M for Ferguson i think a swap deal with Raskin plus 8M for us is fair.

29 Jun 2026 13:29:52
9 million for tasking then? Nope, not for me.

29 Jun 2026 15:05:06
Storm, if we get Ferguson 17m plus 8m and they get Raskin, surely that makes Raskin 25m.

29 Jun 2026 17:28:31
Aye, I picked it up wrong. There is absolutely no chance of that happening.

29 Jun 2026 20:27:41
I would do a straight swap Raskin for Ferguson.

29 Jun 2026 21:53:47
Done a lot of business deals, RR?

29 Jun 2026 10:10:40
Godfrey confirmed.

I noticed yesterday it was said it would be announced last night for future reference don't expect any big announcements on a Sunday. We don't really do big announcements on a Sunday for various reasons

29 Jun 2026 11:01:48
Aye Wullie, the teams at the Chapel. 👀😇🤣🤣

29 Jun 2026 12:03:43
Either that or the media team are always hungover on Sundays lol.

29 Jun 2026 16:05:36
I'm intrigued by this one.

Law of averages, we're due a signing like this to work.

29 Jun 2026 16:33:46
I don't think the law of averages applies at us, EHL.
Seems to be Sod's Law only. 😅

29 Jun 2026 16:54:23
I was thinking this too, Ehl.
I've been trying to think who the last one we had with baggage done well.

29 Jun 2026 05:24:28
If Scotland were playing England on the Wednesday and Rangers were playing Celtic on the Saturday and you could only pick one of the teams to win the match between Rangers and Scotland who wholistic everyone on here pick. I rest my case.

Strange wee group on here sometimes.

How does everyone know it was only Aberdeen fans booing. Did you forget about our captain Barry Ferguson and Alan McGregor getting booed on the bench for Scotland when Ferguson reacted and gave the tartan army two fingers? Cause I never forgot. Like I said I always want Scotland to win but I don't get upset when tgey get beat the way I do when Rangers get beat.

29 Jun 2026 07:49:24
What case u resting? Silly Q tbh. Answer is Rangers in case your wondering. If u think people will pick England, Scotland or, dare I say, Celtic over Rangers then why ask. Nonsensical imo.

29 Jun 2026 07:52:33
Stranger still obsessing about this still at half 5 in the morning. 😜

29 Jun 2026 09:06:50
You mean booed after a disgraceful showing after a 3-0 pumping to the Dutch, after which the great late Walter Smith fined them both 2 weeks' wages and dropped them from subsequent games? Rab, you're attempting to play a narrative to give yourself some sort of validation on why you don't support Scotland.

You thought you were in a majority and you're in a minority.

Btw Naismith, Whittker Weir and Miller were all part of that squad and weren't booed. 👍

29 Jun 2026 11:17:15
Sam, now that's a rest my case post. 🤣 Sir Walter must have been anti Rangers too for dropping and fining them. 🤦

29 Jun 2026 11:23:44
Must've been Kaiser. 😆

29 Jun 2026 13:31:53
This is a ridiculous take. Rangers to win obviously but then we can celebrate.
A draw against England again. 😂

30 Jun 2026 10:29:12
Interesting twist on what actually happened! Ferguson and McGregor reacted to photographers focusing on them sitting on the bench, and not to any fictional booing. I was at that game, and cannot recall any booing towards that pair at all.
