Hull game

Hull City are delighted to announce that a deal has been agreed to sign vastly experienced striker Billy Sharp.

The 37-year-old will officially join the club on 1 January on a contract until the end of the season.

The prolific forward is the Championship’s all-time leading scorer with 130 goals for six different clubs, most notably boyhood side Sheffield United, where he won promotion to the Premier League last term.

Making almost 400 appearances across three spells at Bramall Lane, he was a pivotal figure in the Blades’ rise from League One to the Premier League between 2016 and 2019.

A five-time promotion winner, having reached the top flight with Southampton and the second tier with Scunthorpe United – both under former City boss Nigel Adkins – Sharp has netted over 250 career goals.

The frontman most recently represented MLS side LA Galaxy, for whom he scored six times in 12 matches – his ninth club during two decades as a professional.

Head coach Liam Rosenior said: “I’m so happy. It’s the ultimate no-brainer.

“We’ve got an exciting, young, attacking group of players but what I found in my experience of promotion, and Billy has five, is that when you get to April and May, you need people who have been there, seen it and done it.

“That can be on the pitch and off the pitch with words in the dressing room. Wherever Billy has been, he’s scored goals – and at crucial moments in games.

“To bring in someone of his quality and experience is of huge benefit to the club.”

Welcome, Billy!

Jadon Philogene is injured for Hull which makes it a bit easier for us. Absolutely fantastic player, surprised he went to Hull.

Very good indeed , looking through there team they look a very talented side , wouldn’t surprise me if they finish 3rd 

personally think if we get a positive result Friday it would be our best result of the season so far

God forbid even at his age he would probably score against us 

Of all the goals he scored for Wolves Steve Bull got more against us than any other club and yet David Kelly is the Wolves player that we all remember having the Indian sign over us. Strange that.

Couldn't you have just posted the link instead of posting the whole article and the "five-time promotion winner" "We’ve got an exciting, young, attacking group of players" nonsense?

Find out what scent she wears, pop up the Mall to John Lewis go into the Jo Malone shop and ask them if they have anything similar to the scent she wears. The staff are lovely and very helpful and will identify one of their scents.

Whats different about Jo Malone scent is that the same scent on two different woman will give off a different smell. It’s not cheap tho!

If, as is hinted , you actually bought your Mrs a vacuum as a present, the only thing that surprises me is that you are still alive to tell the tale.

Every pub I went into that afternoon( and it was a fair few) was all packed with city fans , we thought were bound to bump into the blue few somewhere in the centre that afternoon , but no city fans everywhere

Even stranger that David Kelly played for Walsall, not Wolves.
