One of the most unprofessional players in world football, Amr Zaki, has left Hull.
The on loan Egyptian will be sidelined by injury for the rest of the season. Zaki made no impact on
the league this year, though he did have an excellent season last campaign for Wigan.
Will he ever play in The Premier League again?
OK, so it's not Tuesday but we're an hour or so away from kick off so there's actually still
time to bring you some interesting facts and figures about tonight's opponents.
I'm not sure if Egyptwere chosen to provide typical North African opposition
ahead of our game with Algeria or not, but if the pasting our visitors gave the
Algerians in the recent African Cup of Nations semi finals is anything to go by then we probably
shouldn't be too worried.
U.S. international forward Jozy Altidore has been extremely involved in helping raise money for the
people of Haiti following the devastating 7.0 earthquake that struck on January 12th, claiming as
many as a quarter-million lives. Altidore, who has many family members living in the country,
recently talked about how difficult it has been to get through the ordeal and disclosed that he is
slowly trying to turn his attention back to his club, Hull City.
Wayne Rooney hammered in 4 goals to destroy Hull City at Old Trafford today.
Karma for Hull City after bringing in Amr Zaki?
Or just some brilliance from Wayne - who will look to hit top form prior to the World Cup...
With Drogba in Africa with the Ivory Coast, it looks like Rooney can wrap up the Golden Boot over
the next few weeks with a few further performances like this one.
I admire the speedy Mendy There are lots of reasons to support Hull City. I don't
cheer for the Tigers, but I used to have absolutely nothing against Phil Brown's side. Personally,
I admire the speedy Bernard Mendy, and have often professed my love for the vision and passing
ability of blog buddy Jimmy Bullard.

Zaki on loan, according to its official website.

Hull City have just announced the news that they have completed the loan signing of Amr
Zaki from Zamalek on a six month deal. Manager Phil Brown has bought in the striker to
strengthen his attacking options as The Tigers look to push their way out of the relegation
places over the remainder of the season.

Update: Portsmouth have distanced themselves from speculation that Avram Grant will take over
for Hart.
Portsmouth manager Paul Hart has left the club with immediate effect.
He seemed like a nice enough guy, but he just wasn't a results guy. And we're in the results
business. After 10 losses in just 13 games, and on the heels of a dreadful performance at Stoke
which once again exposed his tactical deficiencies - it looks like Paul Hart is out as manager of
Portsmouth.
UPDATE: According to Samm Audu at Goal.com, Zamalek striker
Amr Zaki admitted that Portsmouth is no longer an option due to
an Algerian presence. He said,
"I refused their offer before, but now joining Portsmouth is no longer an option for me .
UPDATE: According to Jordan Cross at The News, Sulaiman Al
Fahim admitted that he wants to sign Zamalek striker Amr
Zaki and believes the club can, but its not his decision. He said,
"It's not my decision, it is up to Paul Hart and Avram Grant
but I would like to see Amr Zaki .

Storrie expects the club's transfer ban to be lifted before the January transfer window.

"My understanding is that we would expect the transfer ban to be lifted in good time for us to
continue trading in January.
I wish Arteta was fit so I could replace Lampard with an absolute on the ball
genius This international break has not been meaningless by any means- in fact, it's
been quite exciting as Nic Anelka gave France a 1-0 lead over Ireland, and former Fantasy Premier
League stars Obafemi Martins (Nigeria) and Amr Zaki (Egypt) got their countries one step closer to
South Africa as well.
Although there were four big play-off games in Europe for us all to watch along with
numerous friendlies, possibly the biggest game of the day was held in Cairo between Egypt and
Algeria.
A rivalry that goes back to 1989, the intensity leading up to the game today reached fever pitch
only a few days ago when the Algerian team bus was attacked by fans with rocks.

January 25th 2011. One year ago today, the revolution began. Making his debut for
Just Football, Adam Moustafa reports on the changes to
Egyptian football in the year since:
Prior to the Egyptian revolution, football was one of the main sources of bliss for
Egyptians.
Hosni Mubarak: "I want to say in clear words that the dignity of Egyptians is part
of the dignity of Egypt. . . . Egypt does not tolerate those who hurt the dignity of its
sons."
Well, Mr Mubarak who has gamed so many elections, he is a virtual dictator by now, saw no
problems in the violence perpetrated on the Algerian players who were in Cairo for the playoffs
There is video evidence to corroborate the accounts of the players.
There was one spot left in the African region (CAF) for next summer's 2010 World Cup Finals
heading into Wednesday, November 18, 2009. Algeria played Egypt with the winner to punch a ticket
to South Africa. Here's a recap of the match along with video highlights.

Egyptian international striker Amr Zaki has officially signed on a loan deal to Hull City from
Egyptian side El Zamelek. The deal, which holds until the end of the season, looks like a shrewd
signing for the Tigers. At just a measly 20 league goals, Hull city are the fourth lowest scoring
team in the premiership, narrowly edging out Stoke City, Portsmouth and Wolves.
While The Pharaohs secure passage into the quarter-finals in Angola attempting to
defend their African crown, one of their brightest sons is making a highly anticipated return to
Old Blighty after a somewhat maligned exit. This time around, Amr Zaki will attempt his goal
scoring prowess a few hours down the M62 from Wigan towards the North Sea and end up with
relegation-fighting Hull City Football Club on a five month loan deal.
