I did indeed watch it on Sky. I'd say £1.75 million is a bargain for Hulse. We have not had any creativity in the midfield now for 5 years since Michael Brown got sold to Spurs and Nick Montgomery was DREADFUL, he is one of the least technically able players ever.
Sure we did penetrate your defence a few times but I'm not convinced about Billy Sharp either. He may be a "fox in the box" but he has no pace, gets barged off the ball easy and only seems to get played just because he is a die hard Blades fan. I would have stuck Danny Webber on instead, he's got pace and he was one of our key players in the promotion season in 05/06 and chipped in a fair amount of goals. Or even Jon Stead but NO he's been shipped out to Ipswich on loan and he scored today.
I'm not fussed about getting promoted or not because I can't stand the Premiership, it was in absolutely no way worth the painfully-long-close-season-just-because-of-the-World Cup I had to endure. It was overrated, boring and we got relegated because West Ham got away with blatant cheating and the FIA I mean Premier League gave them a puny fine which was peanuts to their chairman and said "We didn't deduct points because it's too late in the season.".

Ah, smug mode.
1.75m seems alright business for us, now he's got a goal (and now we've won) he should progress, as should the team as a whole. Did you watch it on sky? I must say you guys didn't look too great today - although you were away and there were moments where some of your players showed their quality, i was also justifiably concered with your players beating our offside 'trap', which was such a close call sometimes.

You guys showed enough to say there's no real problem with your team, just a bad day at the office imo. I was immensely surprised to see Gary Speed on the pitch, has he got his bus pass yet?!
