    There's a few want him out but what the hell can he do. He has done remarkably well with only one recognized striker (who is really lightweight and only good at tap-ins) and up to his neck in wage bills and lack of coin from the owners. I believe that he has had a bellyful personally and if Villa come in for him he will go. His dream has always been the Bar-Codes of course but there was some talk that Celtic were approaching him. Big problem at Hull has been the continuing plague of so-called strikers not being Strikers Arseholes - Altidore, Proschwitz, Sagbo, Cousin, Graham and N'Doye to name but a few plus the interminable injury list to key players like Bullard (I think we got 40 minutes out of him) Snodgrass (injured first game and missed the rest of the season - came back this season and has had a major impact) Dawson, Davies, McGregor, Diame, Huddlestone and Livermore so he has done pretty good really.

    I wouldn't exactly call it 'playing' they turned up and took the money you mean? 3 heaps of ****e that should be ashamed to call themselves footballers.

    Plus Elmohamady and McShane.
    Elmo is a mere shadow of the player he was and they let McShane go. I didn't mind McShane, always put in a shift.

    Of the 3 i would go for N'Doye, he has a little bit of ability and can head a ball, unlike the other two muppets. In fact i'm annoyed now, it really gets my back up to think some ****er at our club thought Altidore was a footballer, why the **** did we buy that useless ****?

    Some of the photo's that came up of him whilst he was on close-season holiday were absolutely grotesque but he isn't a small man.
    To be fair to the bloke though he worked wonders with Hull and has had three different teams promoted (I believe) but the owners have really put a dampener on everybody here from Management to Fans. What can you do when the consensus of players he has approached have said "Hull who"? "Thanks, but No Thanks"!.
    Different at Sunderland when you have the prospect of playing in front of 40,000 plus fans as against 20,000 at Hull.

    I got banned from the USA "BigSoccer" Boards because I had the temerity of saying that Altidore wasn't anywhere near as good as they thought he was and was a 'noodle short of a stir fry' at Premier League level. They threw me off but a couple of years later had the decency to invite me back admitting that I was right. I respectfully declined.

    Of the Hull current players list there would only be young Scottish International Andy Robertson, left sided wing-back capable of competing at Premier League level but I believe there has been an offer from Manure of 15 million - personally I can't believe this but he'd be worth up to half that.
