So if you don't want people to be negative as it hurts the cause, you're saying you weren't suggesting people should be positive to help the cause? Do you comprehend English? "A week or so" I don't actually keep a detailed timeline of your posting, the amount of rubbish spouted would take up an entire notebook.
**** me, detractors? I'm surprised we didn't name ourselves the 'detractor boys' the way some went on last season.
Yes I know, but I don't think that will be the case. I think it'll just be the best ones they can get as I think they're thought of as short term. Were we not allowed to be negative towards the Allams either as that would hurt the cause? Acun put his foot in it again today, and then had to reclarify himself. Maybe it's the language barrier, or maybe he was just being too honest. But it was an odd thing to say and people will question it. Oh ye, being negative towards the gaffer doesn't hurt the cause, don't worry. There was plenty of completely fair criticism, and the football at home was largely dull and boring.
If we're signing 5 loanees I'd have no issues with 1-2 being youngsters that we're taking a cheap punt on (like Ohio), 2-3 with Championship experience that we have a view to signing permanently if they work well, with 1-2 out of the box big names that we have no hope of getting permanently but need to rehabilitate their image or get some playing time (like Fabio). But going for 3-4 that we have no hope of getting permanently just asks for trouble.
-> "as it hurts the clause ..... Do you comprehend English?" Guffaw. Where's this "positive / negative" come from?!? I didn't say I don't want people to be negative! I said about some posting BS (about how things like recruitment and players selection works). There's a massive difference between what I posted and what you are saying I posted! Now come again, which of us isn't comprehending English? Why the hell do you keep re-interpreting so wrongly what is being posted? It's so bizarre.
It wasn't always amazing, I was there for almost all of them. But...but... There was most definitely progress, and with the seasons never-ending then I could only see is going one direction. Unfortunately the January incomings were always going to ensure Liam's fate one way or the other, and the onus was on to hit the ground running which was a task that very few were likely to have been up to.
Oh dear a typo. In my experience people who respond to a post picking on a typo is generally because they have no substance to their argument so have to find something to pick at. BS like "Acun shouldn't have said Pandur is our number one keeper as it hurts the new manager's position" that literally happened and he had to walk back from? Now that's something that DOES hurt the cause.
I’m pleased Acun has clarified more in the last few weeks about how they scout players and walked back on his comment today about Pandur being number one. However, the fact remains that he sacked our last manager because he didn’t like the style of football and has said on numerous occasions that the choice of GK was part of that thinking. People might agree with that and that’s fine, but it’s different for an owner to say it (repeatedly). There was a lot in the fans forum the other week that I actually liked. It was interesting that he talked about conversations with Rosenior about the team, but he shrugged - walked away and let Liam get on with it. I liked that because managers should be able to live or die by their decisions. Also, as owner he should be able to ask why players he bought haven’t been playing. But in the same fans forum he spent 20/30 mins or thereabouts talking about how much he respected Liam but then talking about how ridiculous it was that he was still playing Allsop, oh and why wasn’t Sinik anywhere near the squad? At points he actually seemed to be waiting for the laughter from the crowd. That’s the bit that makes me nervous. Yes he’s talked about the manager and the scouts having the final say - but the tone of that fans forum started some quiet alarm bells ringing. It wasn’t respectful to Rosenior or the current playing or coaching staff. Hopefully in years to come that’ll amount to nothing - but you’ve seen dodgier owners of other clubs start with less meddling than that. For the record I think Acun has done a great job on the whole and I’m really looking forward to seeing what Walter brings to the club. But often what Acun is saying in one place and what/how he’s saying it elsewhere isn’t matching.
To repeat ..... I didn't say I don't want people to be negative! I said about some posting BS (about how things like recruitment and players selection works). There's a massive difference between what I posted and what Syd is saying I posted! If you've noticed, he does it regularly.
Mate, you're an idiot. You started this off by saying it was people on social media, it wasn't, it was Acun. I can't fathom why he even brought it up again. And the recruitment is a mess and he does have way too much influence in it. We've spent a good chunk of money and wasted way too much. It needs completely overhauling and the people who are involved need giving their P45s.
He said he 'will be our no1', not 'he is our first choice 'keeper next season'. He also reiterated the manager would pick the team. People hang on every word and make their own interpretations on the internet. Just results in a whole lot of pointless bollocks like this.
He just needs to bring in someone/people who are capable of running the footballing side. I assumed that was meant to be Tan, but the reality is the footballing decisions haven't been good enough. That includes hiring managers, sacking managers and recruitment as a whole. When you're spending £14/15m a year on the club, give yourself the best chance of success possible.
Recruitment was fine last season. Philogene could bank roll a full season. January was scatter gun but they saw a shot to go for it, I’d have backed us in the playoffs should we have got in. Delap, Philogene , Morton, Omur, Carvalho, Ohio, Connolly, Allsop all proved their worth. Only really Sharp and Pandur who we don’t know yet were busts. Giles 50/50 because he’s a good long term signing should be get him. When you’re going for short term success like the owners are, loans are going to happen.
Thanks for the insult. Another one dishing them out. Nice. I've already said I missed the start, ok. That doesn't make me an idiot. It's a fact that people on social media (which includes on here) have kept spouting BS about how things like recruitment and team selection work, hence the OP. Not negativity, but BS. It's pretty clear who the idiots are thanks.
I think it’s just a language barrier, I saw it as Acun saying Pandur was bought to be number one due to his previous performances in a decent league, his transfer fee, and him being Croatian national team goalie at the younger level.
"Another one dishing them out" for the amount of vitriol I get my way, the amount I dish out in return is absolutely minimal. I reckon I could count on one hand the amount of times I've out and out insulted you rather than just laughing at something silly you've said. I'm glad you've now acknowledged that you might have missed something in the press conference which is how this whole thing started. Time to move on eh?
Why do people trade on negativity so much , why does it stimulate the brain more than positivity? , During last season the praise response was always way less than the negativity . Are you looking for it ? How about impressing the new manager with full get behind him support ? Acun loves the people of Hull - just back them both a bit quicker rather than knocking them first in one’s case , and continuously in the other’s.
