City Bring In McKenna

The Tigers' busy week in the transfer market continues with the signing of midfielder Paul McKenna.
33-year-old McKenna arrives on a free transfer from Nottingham Forest
and becomes the Tigers' third signing in as many days following the
arrival of Jack Hobbs and Dele Adebola.
McKenna, who has signed a deal until 2013, has been linked with a
move to the KC Stadium for much of the summer and now that the move has
been completed, he is relishing the new challenge.
"This is a great opportunity for me to make a new start at a massive club," said McKenna.

"I've played against Hull City in the past and I know that the stadium and support here is absolutely fantastic.
"I know the manager and his staff and when I sat down and spoke with
them I knew straight away that this was where I wanted to come. Now I
just can't wait to get my teeth into pre-season as I'm really excited
about the coming season with this club."
Born in Lancashire, McKenna began his career with Preston North End
and he went on to become club captain during 12 years of loyal service
with the first team. He left Deepdale in 2009 having made 470
appearances and scored 32 goals.
His destination after Deepdale was Nottingham Forest and McKenna's
impact was such that he was amongst the front-runners for the club's
player of the year award in his first season. His leadership qualities
were evident once again last season as he was made captain at the City
Ground and his 35 appearances helped the club reach the Championship
play-offs.

Shouldn't you be building for the future? Rather than bringing in a Forest reject?

Fuck off Jela.
James you signed Dudgeon right? I liked him. He'll do well for you.

Arsenal is a prime example of how youth is useless alone.

We have needed someone in the middle with experience, we have also lacked a proper captain since Ashbee left.


@Kuled, ignore Jela... He hasn't got a clue.

We signed Dudgeon and Evans permanently from you. NP says there is a loan from you guys lined up too but no idea who it is. Would love it to be Morrison.

Not answering my question?

You're signing a 33 y/o reject.

Haven't you got any money to buy some good young players?

Great player to have love the guy such a legend fuck Giggs and Scholes all about Mckenna

Yes I did answer your question. We've lacked experience and leadership in the middle, that is why we have signed him.
As for the reject remark, if you actually followed the Championship you'd notice that players move between teams quite alot.

We have money if it is needed, we have just signed Hobbs for 850k. We aren't Leicester...

Is he to replace Ashbee?

Looks like it, yeah.

Jela we signed a Leicester reject and he has done wonders since. Players aren't shit just because they can't impress at a club.

@James: Every player says that their new club is massive these days.

I thought it was Man City for a sec..

But come on ... Why? We know we are a smallish club Of course I don't expect him to come out and say that but just don't come out and make idiotic comments.

I just find it silly that teams do such things. They can say what they want but if I was a Hull fan I'd laugh at him but admire him for saying such things.
