    Linguistically naive. Could have made his point without spelling it out and using specific examples. We'd have known who he was talking about highlighting situations without naming names.

    Facts though....Allsop is ****, Connolly was fat, and we should be playing strikers in all games, not just at home!

    Different world over there and across Europe. Just taken as part of the game whereas here you've got people "within the game" already expressing concern

    Putting aside whether people agree with what he said. Did this event make Hull City look more attractive to a prospective manager and players? Absolutely not.

    Sounds like a script for 'Lost in Translation'.

    Ive only read here this evening so cant comment... what I will say, is that wherever LR goes next Allsop will likely follow.

    It’s safe to say Acun has bottled a lot up over the course of the season.

    Positives:

    He’s talked a lot of sense.

    He is willing to be open and honest with the fans.

    Negatives:

    It is unprofessional to talk about players who are still under contract.


    Summary:

    F*ck the Euros. This is the best entertainment we’re likely to get this summer. UTT.

    Wouldn't be the first time a player has been dug out for being overweight and he accepted Ozan was when he first arrived, so I think he was being overly candid not deliberately offensive - And Connollys gone to all intents and purposes.

    Also re: Allsop he wasn't really saying he's ****, just that when he was struggling he wouldn't drop him with Pandur waiting and then he went from the bench completely, though I wouldn't be at all surprised if Allsop has been deemed too high risk/unpopular to keep around.

    It wasn't like Allsop was first choice keeper though, was it?

    Meant as a transfer target

    The AS Roma question was completely ignored. Can we presume there's nothing happening there?

    So on a forum that’s predominantly rumour and opinion and fact cloaked as rumour , we now complain that the owner ratifies most of what’s on here - and you worry that the players read it - they probably did anyway . We can’t have it both ways , he’s a little too honest at times probably because he’s a fan too . Not just a sit in the box owner unheard .
    most of us have now got the inside info from the horses mouth not the ITK’s or taxi drivers .

    Allsop has had some good performances this season. He is comfortable with his feet and suits the new managers style of play. He might have been the ideal number two next season as Ingram doesn’t fit the bill.

    Now we’re looking for 2 keepers thanks to Acun’s comments.
