if we were interested at some stage, doesn't look like we made any effort to sign him.

hull may have paid top dollar in which case i think we're better off steering clear.

if pdc wanted him we would at least have made a bid and spoken to the lad.

other targets on the horizon hopefully.

Huddlestone, who has made four appearances for England, played 209 games in all competitions for Tottenham after joining them from Derby in 2005 and scored 15 goals.

He is likely to be followed to Hull by fellow Spurs midfielder Jake Livermore, who is poised for a loan move in the next 24 hours, with the Tigers paying in the region of £5m to secure the pair.
 

I think we pulled out a while back for an as yet undisclosed reason . It can't be insignificant that the entire mid section of the premier league have passed on him and he's ended up at a promoted ( yo-yo) side
 
Just because he hasn't signed for us doesn't mean he's shite. I've seen him play some superb games in the past and his passing is tremendous at times but he's so inconsistent and injury prone I'm glad we haven't signed him.

I don't think £5m is too expensive...however, we may not have been interested in him. Or maybe his wage demands were too high.

It's my belief that his lass fancied the cosmopolitan delights of Hull with it's myriad of shops and fantastic dining opportunities.

You can hear the wheels turning: "Do I want a nice easy life on the piss in Kingston with fat boy Geordie, or spend my life running my arse off for that Italian maniac?". No-brainer for the average lazy-as-fuck English footballer.

This suggestion certainly has an ounce of credibility.
 
2 good signings for 'ull that. A few teams who would expected to be in the mix have done some canny business. Stoke are the only notable ones who haven't; tipping them to go.
