    They might give Bob Bradley a go, bonkers isn't it.
    In fairness Hull are playing decent football but can't defend.
    We have to keep faith with DM, also Swansea beat Big Sam's lads 2-1.

    I feel sorry for the Hull City Fans.

    Despite their apparently eccentric owner and his Tiger fixation, they keep getting into The Prem.
    Then whoever is Manager is expected to keep them there with little or cash to improve the Squad.
    When this is seen to be impossible it's the Manager who gets the sack.
    The only real surprise was that the vastly experienced Phelan took the job in the first place.

    That's madness. I thought he was doing ok really. Bloody good news for us though.

    Pardew innit. Good option for a short term boost, I think he does his dance in the dressing room and it cheers them up.

    I thought Hull were screwed before the season started when they didn't add anything to an already poor squad and it isn't Phelan's fault that I was right about that.

    Surely not, that would be career suicide. He'll have better offers - and I include league 1 teams, etc. where he will at least be on a level playing field with his competition...

    They're due a takeover are they not?

    I think anybody coming in at this stage is destined for failure.

    Inclined to agree unless they think a takeover means spends available. Even so the new owners could want their own personnel.

    Can`t see anybody jumping at it tbh. Not the Pardew, Hodgson, Redknapp sort anyway.

    They need a miracle, Phelan's a top bloke, perhaps not the best manager but he's a great coach and I think he was doing an ok job of keeping the fans at bay, they could snap at any moment, if they wake up.

    Didn't a takeover fall through not long ago?

    I do not see why anyone wouldn't take the job on, it looks as though they are down already.
    If the new manager comes in and saves them, typically like us then he would be a saviour, if not then that is what was expected.
    Plus the other part of being in the job is that they will be getting paid quite a bit of dosh too.

    Reckon that would make any difference Tel? Can`t see Tan paying the slightest heed unless it affects a sale. Possibly not even then.
