For moi, Tiger beer is 2nd only in it's headache generating capacity to Newcy Brown: so it it is probably of favorable portent if TB is not your sponsor for 09/10.

I've heard both these beers contain a formaldehyde like substance
He looked good in the African Cup of Nations in 2008, scoring some real crackers, and on that performance it looked like his move to Man Utd could be sort of warranted but now does not seem to be up to scratch.
Hull City manager Phil Brown has revealed the club intends to speak to Michael Owen's representatives "within the week''.
He is expected to command considerable interest from the Premier League and abroad but Brown believes the Tigers can pull off a notable coup by snapping up the 29-year-old former Liverpool and Real Madrid star.
"We will be speaking to Michael's representatives within the week,'' Brown told the Hull Daily Mail. "I would think he would have a number of offers and we'll have to be competitive.
"But I wouldn't sit down with him if I thought I was wasting my time. Anything is possible in football.''
Owen claimed the link with Hull was a "new one'' to him when asked about the possibility of moving to the KC Stadium. But Brown is adamant the lure of first-team football could tempt Owen to East Yorkshire.
He added: "I don't think Michael will go for the best financial offer, I don't think it's about that for him at this stage of his career, he'll want the best offer for his future.
"He needs to spend a high percentage of next season's games at the highest possible level and that's where we can come in.''
Brown acknowledged a player with Owen's record would not come cheap, adding on talkSPORT: "Breaking the bank is not a term the chairman would be keen on. But he's certainly someone that you would push the boat out for. He's a world-class international footballer.
"There's been a lot of documentation about injuries and being unable to fulfil contracts because he can't get on the field of play.
"But as far as I'm concerned, with a good pre-season under his belt, he's still a quality player and if I could sit around the table with Michael Owen I would be interested in doing that.
"It would be exciting to get someone through the door that could possibly score you 15 or 20 goals a season. That would be a fantastic achievement.''

Speaking of wingers, What happened to Stelios? Last i heard we let him go and he ended up nailing a contract @ Hull last season
tribal so probably crap, but hopefully man city just piss off
Portsmouth and Bolton Wanderers have been linked with an interest in the full-back, with the latter said to be set to hand the 27-year-old a medical.[/Quote]
Bolton or Pompey?
Hull fans heard any rumors knowing if he is heading our way?
EDIT:
[quote]"Portsmouth were reported to be interested in signing Ricketts but the Hull boss rejected the suggestion that they were the club involved."
Clears that up i think

Hunt was having one of his better spells when displaced by Gretar Steinsson and hasn`t featured much since. Last season his most notable feat in a Bolton shirt was to be booked at Portsmouth whilst only being stood on the sidelines.
Reading that sums up your Bolton fan though, We all love Nicky Hunt and most want Megson and his defensive style out.
Wierd signing though, Ricketts cant be expect to start too many @ Wanderers next season..
