Two odd bits of news, hopefully not just panic signings. Scunny fans hated him, like we hated McCormack - but worrying.0

Please not those old prima donna has-beens!So Powell wanted two players and these may be them? deary me
Who were you expecting? Ferdinand and Rooney?0 -

a striker and a centre back...
Powell said he wanted a striker and Slater said he wanted a centre back. Yet Powell also said only 2/3 more. Odd then that we want these two.0 -
Things change though in the blink of an eye, it only takes a second for an unforeseen offer to come in, for a change of heart, for a contract snub etca striker and a centre back...

Scunthorpe fans hardly positive about Hughes.. http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=460&fid=12&sty=2&act=1&mid=2116773885
I don't want him but maybe hes okay for L1. Scunthorpe hate him with a passion.

Sounds like he has been playing left back for Scunthorpe. His position is right back.
Dont know anything about him, so will reserve judgement until it happens and I've seen him play.0 -

That's the way I read it.So Powell wanted two players and these may be them? deary me
A striker was explicitly mentioned so I would think not... as above these would appear to be Elliot/Francis replacements rather than true additions

has he got the right Hughes? .. there's a lot of em about0 -
Couple of links that suggest there's a bit more to him than Scunthorpe think:"It soon became apparent that "Hughesy" suffered from the age old plague of many a professional footballer - he was too versatile. Comfortable across midfield and at either full-back role, it was just too easy to move him to a void in the team rather than let him settle into a position and make it his own. Despite this, he has made 110 appearances for Leeds and although by his own admission he was far from the most technically gifted footballer in the clubs history, it was obvious that his 110% performances more than made up for it."0

Judging from that youtube video rikofold Hamer and Hughes have something in common... both hit the bar in the crossbar challenge on Soccer AM!0

Are you ACTUALLY a gibbon?
That would explain a lot - especially as they are well known for chucking their scat about....so that would mean that being able to stop it hitting you in the mush would be seen as a big plus.
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Andy Hughes????????????????0

Seems the leeds fans had nothing but admiration for Hughes on their blog which is good to read. Sounds like a possible leader that we seem to be lacking. Captain maybe? who knows!
Can't see the versitality being an issue, because, if we have approached him (and it's not been confirmed) I can't see Powell realistically wanting him for anything other than RB, except maybe to cover in times of need.
The youtube clip of him leaving Leeds: If I didn't know any better, watching that i would have assumed the guy was dead. :-/

It could be that for CP the Millwall game was a 'final trial'. He's probably had Hamer and Hughes in mind for a while and the (possibly) poor performances yesterday from Elliott and Solly persuaded him that neither is good enough and he's decided to get the H team in a s a p
Speeking to every Millwall fan that I know they identified Solly and Wiggins as our best players!! Although I wasn't do sure about Wiggins I thought they had a real go at Solly and he held up well. Fo me he was one of our stand out performers, the game game had an edge and he never backed out if anything, he always got himself infront of the man and always got himself between man and ball. Even my old man said he was one of our best players!! I agree with him, thought he delt with it well, and looked class against a decent Millwall side!

I thought Solly looked tired myself.0

My take on it is Powell doesn't fancy Francis and is looking at getting shot this week if poss. Solly cannot do it by himself so a new RB needs to come in. Okay, so does he go for an up and coming youngster we can develop? No, Solly already fits that mould, so he brings in an experienced player who is the finished article on a short term deal (my guess is 2 yrs) to allow Solly to grow and develop, without being rushed in. Solly will get plenty of first team action this season, but he's not quite ready to carry the torch in that position yet, IMO of course.
All positive stuff from where i'm sitting.
