Once upon a time in land far away ,  Spurzzz paid £9 million to Rangers for him ???   £9 MILLION ??

It was around the same time that we paid £7.8 million to Rangers for Carlos Cuellar. Make of that what you will.

Some statement if true.  Shame the doctor wont show that sort of ambition

Take a look at @WolvesMail's Tweet: https://twitter.com/WolvesMail/status/758308146100121600?s=09

So, Wolves transfer business is the latest reason to slag off Villa?

Two months & we haven't signed Messi....lets question the ambition!

At least it shows there intent that theyre not going to piss about.  If its true, then its another club we wont be able to compete with.

Do you remember when they were paying more than most top flight clubs and took a million years to get promoted?

Hutton is quick. That instantly makes him one of the better full backs in the league.

A drag racing car is quick - but like Hutton it takes too long to turn round and go backwards.

I think with Hutton it is a question of priorities. Can he do well as a right back in that league? Yes. Might we be less exposed if he goes gallivanting up the pitch given the weaker opposition? Yes. Will his, erm, sturdy style of play be better suited to this division? Without a doubt.

I would love us to go and get Kyle Walker back but that isn't realistic. Hutton will be alright this season. If we have to pick and choose where to add talent others can't afford in this division, I wouldn't be starting with a right back.

He can alternate the Steve Bull shirt with his Jeff Astle one.

Hutton flatters to deceive. His forays whilst welcome against a back drop of ugly dull football, they rarely amount to anything except our right back being at the wrong end of the field.

This is spot on.  Add in the fact he only ever jogs back, usually just in time to get an excellent view of the man he should be marking setting up or scoring a goal, and is prone to frequent red-card level assaults, and I can only see him as a complete liability at whatever level he plays.

Why weren't you in here jumping up and down when a rag linked us with a £24 million Islam Slimani?

Hutton is the least of our worries for this league.  Besides, he has the right attitude which is a damn sight more than the majority of the rest. 

Agree with that, even though he has been treated pretty shabbily at times in the past by the club he always gives his all. I think he will do well enough in the Championship.
