Who pray tell is this "Moose" chap?
 
Hmmmm. Would be a good signing.

Seeing as Bournemouth agreed a fee for him, but then went for Tubbs, would seem to have legs. Especially as he played for Roth.
 
Hoskins' scoring record is woeful. 7 in 60 games at Watford!


Update - just seen that 35 of those 60 were as sub - so not as bad. Career total is 50 goals in 114 starts which is decent. He has been sub 81 times though which isn't so good.
 
Looks like he's not really been given a chance at Brighton either. First impressions from what i've seen, a Cresswell with a bit more pace???

Been injured I believe.

His recent tweets have been along the lines of:

I have only just got back from my injuries and looking to bang some goals in. Would be disappointed if it is true.

My comment about being disappointed was not aimed at the club #afcb but about a fee being agreed as only joined #bhafc in the summer.
 
I'm not so sure. They seemed to agree a transfer out to Bournemouth, so it seems they want him gone permanently.

Of course, that would mean us spending some money. Still, there's always that Jordan Slew cash *cough*
 



Scored 3 in 2 matches v the pigs last season
 
If he does come in, and with philliskirk signing a longer deal, Beattie signed until the end of the season, could we see a move out on loan or permanent for Porter???
 
Rob Staton on twitter: "A few things need to fall into place before Hoskins deal can be done"
 
Such as someone leaving assumably?

You'd certainly expect so. Evans to Reading? Just throwing that out there....

That said, James Shield reckons it's something that needs to be tied up at Brighton's end. So one of our players is definitely leaving - probably Ndlovu.
 
James Shield on twitter: "I understand Will Hoskins deal is dependent upon certain things falling into place at #brighton's end rather than #sufc. #twitterblades"

Shield again: "The transfer being discussed would see Hoskins join #sufc on loan until the end of the season. #twitterblades #brighton"
 
Get your shit sorted out Brighton! You can't rely on us to get things done at the last minute if needed.... apart from sales obv.

It does beg the question if it's a full signing seeing as the loan window will of course open again soon.

Shit.

Just given us the get out haven't I?

Edit: Bugger.
 
More about the players Brighton are after here:-

"One of those is rumoured to be West Brom defender Gonzalo Alejandro Jara Reyes, who enjoyed a loan spell on the south coast earlier this season, and is unlikely to see too much first team action at the Hawthorns. Falkirk defender Murray Wallace is also set to decide between jumping on the Gus Bus or moving to Ipswich after both clubs held talks with the 19-year-old. If he does choose Brighton however, fans will not see him until next season as he is likely to be loaned straight back following the £300,000 deal.
Hull City striker Aaron McLean revealed he had been sounded out about a move to the Seagulls but, with the capture of Vokes, that deal may now be on the backburner.
Another name linked to the Stripes is Herta Ilunga who is available on a free after an unsuccessful spell at West Ham United."

Three of those are defenders, so Mclean leaving Hull seems to be the key.
Personally, I wouldn't have thought Hoskins is the type of striker we need to sign. Isn't he very similar to the four strikers we've already got?
I would have thought we need a skilful, pacy striker to offer us something different. Still, in Danny we trust!
