Three year deal. Suffered injuries in the last year. Playing in the Welsh leagues. Turned down by Blyth Spartans. But he played for Newcastle innit. Another signing that screams we're skint.

Will start off with people raving about his pace then gradually It will hit home that he's not very good at all

If he'd been anywhere near league level then Gateshead or Hartlepool would have snapped him up

Its quite clear that other clubs scouting networks are simply not at our level and that this lad is a rough diamond missed by all the rest. Or summat.

Begining to think I could get a 3 year deal this is comparable to the man who can throw a ball very very far Been tracking him for a while now (if he was any good someone would have signed him pre season) Yet another miss from our eagled eyed team of scouts What happens when we finally grow a pair and bring in a new manager he's a team full of sh1te on 2/3 year contracts This really isn't looking good Meanwhile on BT everything is rosy we are unbeaten in our last 1 and signed the best player in the Welsh League I despair really

Looks decent in Wales, but I couldn't tell you the first thing about how the standard stacks up to League two.
On the bright side He's not 36 years old, seems to have the hunger as he's certainly putting himself out there. I'm reserving my judgement

I’ve gone hit. He’s not over 30, maybe just maybe we’ve found a hidden gem*

Going team gomper on this one. This is exactly the sort of signing we've been demanding. A player on the up with resale value if he makes a decent impact. 3 year deal is a risk but that will be a wise decision if he's any good. I'm going to get behind the lad FFS.

If we had a fully intact first team I’d be a lot warmer towards this. I still wouldn’t expect much but I’d be fine with the gamble. As it is we’re desperate for first team strengthening and we’re doing what we always do which is sign ifs, buts and maybes. Oh, and no fucking chancers.

I initially thought that at least he's not from the North East, until I discovered that he's originally from Newcastle.
I bet Gent saw him playing for the Mags v Boro when he was 13 or something. And City are now that skint that he's trawling through his little black books for the cheapest players available.
Wouldn't be surprised to discover that he makes Mottley-Henry look like Ronaldo. I'm all for signing young talent and developing them to make a profit, but City are hardly known for employing such a strategy and at 23 I can't see him being some overlooked diamond-in-the-rough.
You watch, when Hughes' time at this club comes to a close. The next gaffer will be complaining that his hands are tied because the squad is full of substandard players on 3 year contracts.
I wish I could be more positive about Bradford City in general, but the club is a total shit show from top to bottom. And I can't see any genuine improvement happening until the club is sold.

I’m going Team Gomp too. Yes it’s only the Welsh league, but TNS won it and he scored 7 in 22. It might not work, but it’s what I’ve been calling for for ages: players who’ve got a taste of winning stuff at a lower level and are hungry enough to step forward.

The fact he stepped up for a penalty 10 minutes or so into his debut suggests he’s got decent cojones.
