He got us promoted again, but we nearly made a Horlicks of that too. This season we shouldn't even had been in the Championship and it's only really because of him that we are here in the first place.

We need a change, it isn't a about deserving another chance because there's no room for sentiment here. We need to look at the bigger picture and analyse whether he is the right man to take us forward. I don't think he is.
Bruce massively underachieved last season and nearly repeated it again this season.
 
Nope.

Most teams going up go down quickly.

And we went up this year. Nearly didn't is irrelevant, as we did. By the same argument we nearly stayed up, but for a miracle Leicester run of wins.

Stop deluding yourself we are suddenly safe bets to be safe. The facts suggest teams rarely do it.

With the squad we had we should have stayed up despite what Leicester did

Has anyone suggested we are safe bets to stay up?

We've stayed up twice. Not stayed up obviously, that would be like saying I stopped smoking once...
 
I agree so long as the manager we need is available and wants to join us. I only have a couple of ideas but I dont think they would come to us.

I don't understand why the manager needs to be unattached. Why can't we just poach a manager from somebody else?

Quique Sanchez Flores would be awesome though.
 
Just in from Springboard Festival. Having spoken to a club source, it seems they themselves don't know if Steve Bruce will stay or not.

I hope they all get this sorted asap, owners and manager and it's not like last season were the manager didn't have a clue about budgets etc as the Allams ****ed off on holiday
Burnley and boro will all ready be a couple of weeks in front of us regarding signings etc

Why does anyone think they would!?
He won't know himself as he has said clearly he needs to see what's on the table. I reckon that's a few days away yet.
 
I don't think Steve Bruce is the right man for a stable Hull City Premier League team. He has, ultimately, under-achieved in both of the last two seasons.

That being said, given that we have gone up via the play-offs, and the owners situation - it might be best for the moment to see Bruce as the key to short-term stability.

If I was a hypothetical new owner, i'd probably want a replacement lined up and in place within the next 2 weeks - otherwise stick with Bruce. But who knows who will be the owners in 2 weeks time.

Well he's unattached at the moment anyway!

But yes, people having a crack during the season when we wanted Bruce out were saying "But no one good is available!" Well, who cares? We can poach someone..
