maxjak Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Next Saturday a certain Adriano Basso will almost certainly be in goal for Hull City........he has kept three clean sheets in a row during a run of three 1-0 victories. Will he be welcomed back as a possible future Hall of Fame candidate or given a less than friendly welcome. It looks as it has finally come good for our former God fearing keeper, and If we play 4-5-1...........I could see it being four 1-0 victories for his new club.

spudski Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I certainly will applaud him. He was a great Keeper for us, and and i loved his positivity and self belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redcliffe 78 Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Lets hope he is praying for us, Hull are in a good bit of form. No super saves please Basso let one through the legs, would be a legend here if not him and Johnson's ruthlessness clashed. For many he is a ledge.

In my eyes did nothing worng apart from refuse to sign a new contract, excatly the same as Maynard is doing now, it was del boys decision to drop him because he wouldnt sign????

InCider Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Wil definitely give him a good reception. Hope he has a howler though! Very good shot stopper, but with a few weaknesses. As Spudski points out though, it was his positive attitude and belief in our 'always believe' phase that makes him a legend. Oh, Bassoooo, oh Bassoooo!

hinsleburg Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I think Basso was over-rated and the catchphrase 'always believe' has clouded peoples opinions of him. Yes he had the potential for excellent saves and he often won us matches however some of his mistakes were horrible. Much rather have Jamo in goal every day of the week.

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted September 17, 2011 Admin Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Great keeper for us although did drop the odd clanger and can only hope he does that next week. Knowing us, he have a blinder. How many great keepers have we had? How many great keepers don't drop the odd clanger? IMHO it was a big mistake in letting Basso go, I still don't know the truth behind it, so won't speculate. But, whatever the truth, it seems odd that a player that seemed so settled was either pushed or personally motivated to risk all by leaving us in less than favourable circumstances.

Pederho ll Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 We don't have anyone with his personality. He brought the club together. Exactly. We were a really strong club back then, thanks to the likes of Basso and GJ of course. The 'Always Believe' mentality wasn't just another song, it was an unofficial club ethos to which the vast majority (board, manager, players, fans and staff) followed. It was an amazing time and a great feeling. Somehow the club has moved away from this positive mentality and we are the poorer for it. Somehow we need to become less fragmented and all pull in the same direction once more. It's not easy when results are not going our way, but personalities the likes of Basso are essential in aiding the process. I for one will give this bloke a resounding rendition of "Oh Basso, Oh Basso...." They were great times and he was pivotal to the success we had.

In a sport full of shallow materialists Basso is a man with the ability to inspire. We're much the poorer without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfan Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Basso is easily the most inspirational and influential player at Ashton gate for years Aside of him and although his time was short lived with us, the only other one is Paul Hartley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 The good news about Basso coming back, apart from him being a great character, is that it will give the fans a reason 2 get vocal. Even if several renditions of always believe and oh basso will be about the opposition at least it will raise the volume in the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mangotsfield Red Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Basso easily the most influential player at Ashton gate for years? Easy mate. He was very good for us but I think some fans have Rose tinted glasses when it comes to basso. Yes, he was excellent for us in the main, but he made a good number of high profile mistakes. He'll get a very good welcome from me next week. As for the earlier poster that referred to GJ as "del boy" - possibly a little disrespectful after all he did for us?

extonsred2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Not only have they got Basso -- but also Rosenior, Adebola and Waghorn who we were linked with v recently! Lots to watch there! Have to be careful we cheer for the right team!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greedo Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 We don't have anyone with his personality. He brought the club together. 100% this. I wish we had someone like him at the club right now. A certain hall of famer in my eyes. He'll definitely get an "Oh Basso!" from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
