First game of the season, watched us vs Villa with a couple of Brummie Villa fans here in Lyon at the pub (they alwyas sound as if they're moaning with that accent don't they?).. "Hull are much better than us, aren't they?" I said, you wait until the end of the season and Bruce will get you in the play-offs..
Well as far as I can see Slutsky is staying. Or is it the curse of the owners are fully behind me? OWS “We have a really good atmosphere inside the Club. Everyone supports me. That starts from the owner and finishes with each guy from the staff. For me, we are building a team. Not as quickly as I thought before. I thought this would be an easy time for me here but now I understand the possibilities of each player. I look forward very positively.”
Having identified a manager like Silva and getting him in was really good. What was crap was selling Livermore and Snodgrass to rivals at the bottom. With them still in the side and with what we bought I reckon Marco would have kept us up. Bad mistake which will haunt us for a long time.
Snodgrass wanted to go as soon as he knew of the West Ham interest .. Livermore on the other hand .....
It is the answer to the question asked yesterday about why the match day threads are so short these days.
Best quote about the Slutski situation was the tying both hands behind his back then sacking him for drowning one. It's a ****ing laughable situation, it really is. Employ him, sell his best players, buy any old ****e, get some Chelsea loanees simply because they are employed by Chelsea, give him no assistance and say Go on you smiley, Russkie gimp, get us promoted with that. It ain't gonna work. He needs a transfer budget, a transfer window and most importantly of all, time, to make it work. Sacking him now would be ****ing idiotic. That the club are even considering it demonstrates what a clueless bunch of ignorant, reactionary, unstrategic, short-sighted moronic clown shoe mongs are in charge of this wonderful, proud, valued institution called Hull City AFC. City of Culture? You're having a laugh. **** off Allams. You're poisoning something beautiful and precious. ****s.
Bollocks Ernie. His tactics, formation, selections and training are all wanting. I'd happily see him sacked and let a decent manager get this lot turned round. Ipswich are **** and they are eighth. Fact
Mebbee they all are but that doesn't change the fact that he's been royally shafted, not had the chance to bring in players, or had time to learn how to get success in this league.
I agree the players aren't the best. But we still have enough decent players to be doing better than we are. If he didn't know the league then his assistants should have been telling him. 3-4-3 sounds great but if your players aren't capable of playing it successfully then don't play it. Same with 4-2-3-1. Surely him and his coaches and team of analysts must look at why we're conceding loads of goals? Then carry on playing the same way. That's mental. Millwall were ****. They sat back and did nowt yet could still have scored a few. Do that against brizzle and we'll lose easily
So much for a change then. I knew it was 99.9% bull$hit. This is all the evidence you need to know that the owners are quite prepared for Sluty to take us to League 1, this been after they have asset stripped some more, then they'll put the club up for sale get about £10m if that, then they'll finally £uck off putting 2 fingers up to the fans.
