Never bid for him, only Sheehan spoke with him, wages too much and not what the club wanted. |  |

I honestly don't know. I was disappointed when it didn't happen, but the reports never sounded all that promising. But I don't know if it was 1) we weren't that interested, 2) he wasn't interested in a return to Swansea, or 3) Hull was ready/able to pay better wages. Honestly, I tuned out to the discussion out of my disappointment. All I know is that it's the one missing piece of the puzzle. We need to striker to connect on the type of cross Cullen whiffed on with the chance to make to 2-0 yesterday. |  |

Thank you for answering my question as I began typing it, Keith! |  |

Oli on 17:37 - Aug 17 with 1328 views | nantywatcher | With two assists for their two goals yesterday, no surprise there! |  | |  |
Oli on 17:38 - Aug 17 with 1324 views | jacktar | I can't say I wanted him back but a goal and 2 assists in a 3-2 win seems to show he's hungry. As previously said though, do we really care. [Post edited 17 Aug 17:39]

I'm hoping we get better and younger with a resale value. I like many was disappointed when we didn't get O'brien, but after watching Galbraith yesterday feel we could have a better player in a relatively short time, the lad is destined for the Premier League. Why can't this be the case with any forward we get, the recruitment team seem to be sourcing excellent players. |  | |  |
Oli on 19:54 - Aug 17 with 1120 views | jack247 | With a decent striker, which McBurnie is, we’d have buried Sheffield United and may well have got something at Middlesborough. He’s a long way ahead of anyone we have at the moment. If we manage to sign this game changing striker from mainland Europe, happy days. I just hope we haven’t got too many eggs in one basket with two weeks left of the window. McBurnie in this team and we’d give anyone a game. If we get someone better, brilliant. |  | |  |

He didn't want to come here, hopefully we will get a decent striker in this week |  |

Do we know that? All I know is there were informal talks and we didn’t make an official offer. Yes, hopefully |  | |  |

"McBurnie gave the green light to join the Tigers back in May pending his exit from Las Palmas. He made it clear he wanted to sign for the MKM Stadium club following conversations with new boss Sergej Jakirovic and sporting director Jared Dublin." https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/hull-city-win-trans |  | |  |

I doubt even Hull fans believe that. They aren’t Real Madrid. Has any player on a free ever had the mindset ‘I don’t care who’s in for me, I’m not going anywhere apart from Hull’? Anyway, if we sign someone better, or as good and younger, it’s immaterial. |  | |  |

Didn't Joe Allen do similar? |  | |  |

I read, sorry that I can't remember where, that there were talks with him. It never said who the talks were with. He was offered more than Hull were willing to give him but preferred Hull for whatever reason. Perhaps he's settled up North ? Has a house there or something. Whatever at the end of the day as he hasn't come here. I don't think he'll be standing on the terraces with us anymore. |  | |  |

Oli on 22:47 - Aug 17 with 685 views | swan65split | it was his decision, age etc . but I belive he would have suited us the way we look atm , he knows where to put the ball . |  | |  |

I’d rather not know. Whoever it is, if he’s that good, we don’t want any hint of a name sneaking out anywhere. If Keith is that confident, I’m happy |  | |  |

Agreed I would rather know nothing until a deal is done. The last thing we need is a certain reader alerting other clubs through the press and saying it is an exclusive. |  | |  |
