Last updated : 28 March 2008 By Covsupport
The signing of Zavon Hines has provoked a mixed reaction from emails to our inbox, here are a few of the things City supporters are saying. Please note that these views are not those of Covsupport News Service and this article is run in order to provide talking points on the various City messageboards. :

"It is no wonder that City are doing without a reserve team next season when the two top scorers are allowed to leave. This is more barrel scraping from the Sky Blues and I'm sick of this get anyone to appease the fans mentality."

"Have heard he is a promising striker but can't see why we have gone for someone with no league experience"

"With a bit of luck, he is in the latest batch of West Ham Academy players who have gone on to better things and he'll take to the Championship like a duck to water."

"We need experience, not kids"

"More bad planning to put all your eggs in one basket. Ranson can take the blame for this as our striker search should have started the day Coleman was appointed"

Hines has been given the number 9 shirt and is in Chris Coleman's squad to face Plymouth tomorrow.
