Kabba signs for 500K

Hmmm not too sure about this....he has scored goals in the ccc but we now have

Hoskins
Henderson
Priskin
Ashikodi
Kabba
King

as strikers

Is 6 too many considering Bouazza can play up front too. Should we have spent the money on a CB? (assuming we are not already trying to do this)

 

Kabba can play right wing also and will provide cover for Smith.

I don't see him as a massive improvement from what we have, but something different. He's quick and strong - could be good at chasing don't Hendo knock-downs.

 

Just phoned my lad to tell him. His response was 'Who the feck is he?'.

 

Shabba Ranks - Mr. Loverman

"Mr. Loverman - Kabba"

I'll get my coat

 

Tell him to show a bit more respect to `the old man`;D

He could be talking about our leading marksman this season

 

He's only 25, I thought he was older than that!

 

Im not so sure on Kabba i would of liked to think we could do better.

 

Let's all laugh at Burnley

It could have been worse, at least we didn't pay £750k for Panicbiyi !

 

Now that is a good point

 

or waste 750k on sam parkin last season, which means we may not have got marlon, hendo and promotion.

500k is a good price for next seasons fizzy pop campaign, we will come back up as champions.

 

Of those 6 where'd you rate him?

1 King
2 Hoskins
3 Kabba
4 Henderson
5 Ashikodi
6 Priskin

Not a definitive list because some players blow hot and cold!!

 

pair them as a front two:

marlon and tamas
hendo and hoskins
kabba and moses

 

He's gonna be wearing Ash's old number.

How many people at the match tomorrow will have KABBA 15 on the back?

 

This bloke might...

 

Angelo will.

 

When i first heard this i was a little disapointed

However, now after reviewing the situation, i have changed my mind. Hes only 25 (i was convinced he was older) is very strong, fast and can score. I think he will be a very good purchase ( next season we will rip defenses apart- king kabba hoskins >)

Good buy imo.

 

yeah goodbye imo - have a great trip.

 

Question is, who forked out the money to have 'YOUNG - 15' on their backs. That's the reason why I always have my name on the back of my shirts.

 

Check this out, read into it what you will!

Warnock defends Kabba sale

26/01/2007 - 3:49:37 PM

Sheffield United manager Neil Warnock has defended his decision to allow Steve Kabba to join relegation rivals Watford but admitted that the striker can be “as good as anyone in the Premiership”.

Kabba had slipped down the pecking order at Bramall Lane following the arrivals of Jon Stead and Luton Shelton and joined Adrian Boothroyd’s side for a fee which could rise to £750,000 (€1.1m).

Warnock revealed that he had received bids from several Championship clubs for the striker but felt that they were way short of his valuation.

He said: “I just felt it was a realistic offer from Watford. The deal means that we are going to get up to £750,000 (€1.1m).

“I don’t see the logic of losing £400,000 (€606,600) by selling him to a Championship club. If Watford finish fifth from bottom and Kabba scores 25 goals then yes, it will be a mistake but we’ve let him go for the right reasons.

“He hasn’t been able to get a consistency level. On his day he’s as good as anyone in the Premiership

“He’s had three horrific injuries which is unlucky and I think it caught up on him.

“He gets frustrated easily and the last six months not playing has done his head in.

“But like everyone who has left now he has played a part in getting us to the Premiership.”

 

It's nothing a good marker pen couldn't sort out:

KABBA​

YOUNG​

15​

 

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

 

wonder if webber influenced kabba coming here......

 

if webber came back you could put WABBA on the back of ashirt - two for the price off one.

 

Well it sounds like he should be hungry and raring to go. Like King, he's got a proven scoring record in the Championship but has had some recent, frustrating set-backs.

Wasn't King also 25 when we signed him?

 

I know people will think because he couldn't get in the sheffield united team he is rubbish., but I think he will be a really good signing for us. Watch this space....

 

He does say that Webber had nothing but good things to say about the club.

 

got 15

 

Panic/average signing, shall give him a chance but i'm pretty certain he was quite far down on the list of the strikers we wanted.

 

he will suit our style of play however - give him a chance, he only cost us what they bought webber of the investors for.

 

i think we have all learnt with aidys singings not to write them of to early

 

Sietes, woooooo
Sietes, woooooo
he came from sunny Spain
He never got a game
Sietes, woooooo

 

I think he may have been 2nd or 3rd choice to others.

I'm willing to give him a chance but I'm struggling to be inspired by this signing.
