What did pilot do go on luxury holiday in company jet? Seems a lot of luggage for a pilot? Perhaps dahl got off other side?

Really don't want him .

He will get eaten alive in Championship.

Let him go to Hull , city of smelly fish and startling ugliness

For a plane of that size it would need more than a just one pilot for the 3hrs 10min flight plus cabin crew

Hope they had a flask of coffee and some food sitting there watching planes landing and taking off

Yeh if there were people spotted waiting I’m thinking he was dropped other side or before plane was spotted with pilot getting off with luggage.

Having said that could easily have dropped them off with dahl? Total mystery really is.

Just spoke to someone who’d know and they said that the passenger would have been ‘dropped by the flying school. The White Building it’s called’.

If he was on that plane (we still don't know for certain) then that would make sense, especially if airport staff knew there were people there who were trying to see if it was him.

Dahl just appointed governor at Howells school.

It has to be him, checked flight radar and did some research, from what I can see this is the only flight direct from Tromso to CWL.... ever!

Occam's Razor!

Where does it say that as a ‘done deal to Hull City’? :?

On this thread, people, including myself, are just stating the coincidence of a ‘private’ flight to CWL from Tromso, and the absence of Dahl from today’s squad

It could be the club’s officials returning or the passenger(s) actual identities could be wide of the mark; but it is noteworthy and will certainly become apparent soon enough

I’m on the side of positivity when it comes to our club being able to get deals across the line, if the player(s) are prepared to listen to what BBM has to offer them

Here is the latest flight path (already past Hull) :thumbup:


Your always on the positive side is that meaning something?
it's just something to talk about again on the forum rather than it being to serious, chatter rummors it's all what a forum is for in my book,
if we all said and thought the same, there would be no negative posters left and the positive posters would not have anyone to scold or take mick out of .
If this Norwegian guy comes to cardiff I'll buy you a pint.

It means a lot, as I just don’t see the club as one that isn’t backing its manager/coach, or that the manager/coach doesn’t have ‘targets’ he can get over the line

My point was that there is no indication he is signing for Hull City, other than the same whispers and rumours (mainly started from the Tromso end) that other clubs are ‘interested’. Those clubs can put up or not, but we are still very much in the running and today’s events, including the Tromso statement in the post above, are encouraging at this point

Your comment about (quote) “positive posters would not have anyone to scold or take mick out of” works two ways, as a read back of comments made by certain posters over several thread will show

Based on a number of factors, I’m more than hopeful a deal can be done with young Dahl early this week :ayatollah:

The one think I looked at on the hull forums was the Norwegian guy said he was flattered Hull is a cool team
This is bit that got me he said

The league is the biggest in the world and it "WOULD" have been incredibly cool.

Which i would say is that he is not saying it "will" be great,
but "would " been have great but it sounds like it could be elsewhere .

I agree Monty. Personally I think that Hull have probably not pursued and it fell nicely into place for us.

Thanks to Si on the Cardiff World podcast l have found out that journalist Peter O'Rourke is reporting that Hull have approached Everton about defensive midfielder Tim Iroegbegnum either on loan or permanent.

Does this mean they have switched from Hjerto Dahl???????

In which case.....

Agatha Christies would have been proud of this storyline!!!!

Seems like the club are really working hard to keep this under wraps to avoid anything going wrong.
I have a feeling we’ll hear nothing then there’ll be an official photo etc by midweek. :thumbup:

the Vale’s not a small, or secured place

If he had checked in, wouldn’t there be at least some rumours swirling round that he’s in Cardiff?

This transfer has been a wild rollercoaster ride! Must be what it feels like to support one of the top 4, with all their dealings out in the public eye!
