    Because him and SB are mates, he's coming for Phelanthropic reasons.

    Been there, done it and got the T shirt, would be a cracking appointment if it comes off.

    I also think he may keep Bruce in check a little with his team selections and tactics

    Naaarwich end suggesting he`s spat his dummy out after being overlooked for managers job, take him in a heart beat here, good experience and would fit in like a glove alongside SB

    Could be one of Januarys best signings, added bonus of a ready made replacement for Bruce, if required

    This could be a masterstroke.

    Don't ask me why - I've just got a Phelan.

    Get Phelan in, get Januzai on loan to provide that creative spark which we so desperately need... buy a striker (a good one this time please Brucey) Pray we stay up..

    IF this were to happen IMO only a nominal amount of praying would be needed and whilst bringing in Phelan is stating to look possible I doubt that Januzai will come and I doubt even more that a good striker will be purchased.....so that will be dusting the prayer mat off then !

    Mike Phelan is set to make an swift return to coaching by joining Hull City as number two to manager Steve Bruce.

    The former Manchester United assistant-manager quit his coaching role at Carrow Road in the wake of Alex Neil’s shock appointment as Norwich boss.

    It looks like being a brief spell away from the game for Sir Alex Ferguson’s one-time deputy at Old Trafford, though, following claims on Humberside that he is set to join Hull’s coaching staff as assistant to Bruce.

    Ex-United centre-back Bruce has seen Hull slip into relegation trouble in recent weeks and is thought to view the vastly-experienced Phelan’s arrival as a move that will provide fresh impetus for his struggling side.

    Hull have only managed four Premier League wins all season and are currently on a run of three straight defeats without scoring.

    Phelan spent five years as assistant manager at United but left the club after Ferguson's retirement in 2013 following the appointment of David Moyes.

    The former defender joined Norwich, for whom he played between 1985 and 1989, as first team coach in November last year but, after a short spell as caretaker manager following the resignation of Neil Adams, but left his role after Neil took charge.

    I Donowa to think of that, but you're not out of the Woods yet. Any more puns based on Eighties Norwich players and you'll be sentenced to a good old-fashioned Bertschin.

    I'm all het up now - a Drinkell calm me down, though.

    There's nothing actually in that though. Speculation. I'm pretty sure the DM ran a similar story about us signing Gestede last weekend.
