Maybe but

At the end of the day it would have been for 4 months. Even at 30K a week (which i doubt they are paying him - probably more like 15K) then that would work out as about the same as signing Andy Gray.

Guess it depends where your priorities lie. The signing of Gray would arguably be more "prudent" and thus i suspect was always far more likely to happen but then signing Hucks was not prudent at the time and look where that got us.
