    I see nothing bad in that article from our perspective, and I hope its true. We have no idea how long or how much interaction there's been between us and Bruce either so making it sound like hes been sitting on his hands waiting for a better offer is disingenuous.

    If we get him, I see nothing but success for us and leaving LCFC and TWS in our dust as we leave the championship which is what the Assams want also. How's there anything even remotely negative here?

    I agree.

    Frankly I wouldn't want a manager who didn't think about it.

    If we got an immediate yes it would rather imply 1)he had no options 2) he was desperate 3) he was impetuous 4)our offer was to good to be true. None of which would leave me comfortable. Even NB who was Hull through and through took quite some time to decide. So lets be patient. Personally I'd be happy with Bruce, but there are others I'd be happy with as well. And anyway I'm more interested in what they do than who they are. So this is a positive in my books, and I can see us doing well next season as the Allams carefull running of the club starts to pay dividends.

    just saying, to come onto an opposition board (I used to be John Fallen) and claim some of our posters are obessed with your club... just go back to your own board and have wet dreams about Old Nigel (who'll probably replace Lennon at some point - and let's see which quality guy you get when that happens signing some of our talent - then wake up when the transfer window close and realise you've signed none of them.

    By the way who is John Fallen - was he some world-beating player or what

    Agreed. The transfer market is so far stone cold but it will get warmer as we move into July. New manager has to be in place by then.

    That's right, it was the other kunt AKCJ, very similar characters, easily mistaken for each other.

    Sorry son, your looking desperate...I can understand your anger after the ass whipping you took on foxes forum, but lashing out at me "the voice of reason" is not necessary, I suggest an anger management course before you bust a gasket...<laugh> but if not, come up with a better class of insult,cos thats feeble.

    To be fair to the Fail, they were told directly by Bruce's agent that we hadn't even spoken to him.

    Which is more than a little odd.

    The Club's Official stance is still that they have two preferred candidates.

    donkey molester is my patented insult.. please ask permission before you plagiarize it... All I said was to allow any bloke to keep a club swinging in the wind while he decides weather to take it or not, is condescending and embarrassing ...why all the insecure abuse?

    Weather? ffs.

    This nuggets like those raggy arsed street arabs you've got to totally blank, because the slightest hint of a response and they latch on to you peddling their tat and stinking the place out.

    He said no-one had spoken to either of them...

    "I have had no contact at all from Hull City. Hull City have not approached us at all."

    So, they could have contacted and approached us....hmmm

    I really can't be arsed to look, so sorry if it's obvious, but has anyone at the Club confirmed or denied this story, or is it all just journalistic piffle?
