That was with 6,500 in... Imagine the reaction with 20,000 in - watching whatever that was. I don't disagree Ingram wasn't helped by the rest of them, but he didn't help himself either. Forward and wide players gave up on making runs after he missed opportunities to go long to them, time and time again. Eventually it was like watching a dodgy stream when it stops to buffer. No movement at all. Perfect stillness.
Maybe he's closing in on a deal to buy Cringleford F.C?
He's bought a feeder club. He's also mates with Fenerbache, turkeys president and probably someone high up at Roma.
It's a multiclub system but he's been at more games than Russell ****ing Battlett or the Allams pro rata so let's not think we're merely a plaything he's discarded just yet.
We was bought because someone wants a club with potential to get into the premiership at little cost to what it would be to buy a club already in the premiership then we will probably see a change of hands.
In other news, Robbie McKenzie scored twice tonight to give Gillingham a 3-1 win over Southampton, who put out a pretty strong team. Some teams just want it more. Russell Martin's post match comments were very similar to LR's, except that RM actually threw some of his players under the bus. Not literally, obviously. On second thoughts, he might have done.

Tbf, I’ve listened to his post-match interview and I respect what he has to say. Didn’t throw anyone under the bus and took responsibility and acknowledged there needs to be changes. If he can turn it around, and I hope he can, then great. Need to see a big improvement in performance on Saturday. At this point I’m more bothered about the performances than the results. I can take a mid-table finish but I need to see that the players are playing for him and willing to pick themselves up. I can take losses. What I can’t stand to see is players looking confused about what they’re supposed to be doing.
If Rosenior is to have a future as coach at this club, everyone needs to be singing from the same hymn sheet.

Which is what Acun, Tan and LR keep saying IS the case. So where, I ask you, is it on the pitch?
Means some of our targets will have seen/heard how abysmal we are and their managers will not bother loaning players for their development. Also players themselves will not want to come to Hull
They're not going to say otherwise though.
For all this talk of Rosenior being a rookie manager, managers have to start somewhere. No one's levelling the same criticism at Carrick who had a good first season with Boro. Rosenior managed for the bulk of last season and managed a respectable finish, that in itself deserves respect and credibility. If the players aren't listening to him then ship the players out.
Really depressing night that.
****e performance, especially after starting so well. The crowd was a joke. So much needless pressure piled on Ingram for doing his job. It was a bizarre game tactically with them refusing to press him after the first 10 minutes, but Ingram really wasn't the problem. He's just looking for someone to pass to. If they don't press him he can take as long as he wants, and if no one has made themselves available then what do you want him to do? Just boot it anywhere for the sake of speed? He actually found players in good positions several times; Lokilo went in behind at least twice, Connelly once, a few with Christie in the second half got him high up the wing and there was one to Covil that we almost scored from too. His distribution was actually very good! People are just so religiously determined to be mad about playing out that it always has to be the problem.
I've been saying I was worried that the negativity of our home crowd might cause us problems this season and I think this is a huge concern for Wednesday now. The mood is atrocious. Wednesday will know it and will come here hoping to turn us against our team. Please try and remember that before doing it.

I'm convinced we wouldn't have been promoted from League One if the season hadn't been behind closed doors. Our fans are our own worst enemy at times.

That’s the thing. Going into pre-season I had my concerns about our transfer activity and Rosenior’s inexperience but I was under the impression the players had bought into what he was doing and he had their respect and backing 100%. What you, @Howdentiger2 and @M88 EVN have suggested tonight that some players are questioning his methods and philosophy is concerning. Whether it’s his emphasis on fitness sessions, his tactics, communication or the way he conducts himself that may rub players the wrong way, it doesn’t paint a picture of Acun’s ‘One family, one dream’.
If we don’t see a response on Saturday and I see big players like Christie, Seri, Traoré etc. looking like deers in headlights and not knowing what to do, Rosenior’s days are numbered.

I’m not at all clued-up on Boro’s pre-season and first game of the season (except that they lost) but if they looked as confused as we do on the pitch in stark contrast to Boro last season, as a Boro fan I would definitely be raising questions as to what exactly happened over several months for the team to look so disjointed and unsure of themselves.
