    Transfer Embargo

    I know it's not Mike White's fault and he's only reporting what he's told, etc, but I wonder if he could bring us some good news some time in the next decade!

    Match Day Thread England v Senegal

    Said it before and will say it again. The most entertaining football England have played in the last few years was when Lee Carsley was the manager. He got castigated for the one game when he tried to play Foden, Palmer and Bellingham together (even though everyone had been saying it was worth a...

    Transfer Rumours Summer 2025 Transfer Thread…

    As Alfie lost his place late last season, despite in my eyes having had a pretty good season (look at our goals against column, and that when we clearly had issues at full back), I thought he would definitely be rattling his agent's cage over the summer. But you'd like to think with a new coach...

    New Manager... Sergej Jakirović appointed

    What was Muslic's record at Plymouth compared with Ruben's at Hull. When Ruben took over we were bottom and survived. Wnen Muslic took over at Plymouth were they also bottom but didn't survive? Points per game about the same, and did he have to contend with as many injuries?

    New Manager... Sergej Jakirović appointed

    He made a point in the RH interview of saying the target wasn't to avoid relegation! So he could justify Muslic maybe?

    Selles has done one…

    I wonder how much say Dublin, Dokes (does he watch us?) and Hodge (wasn't even here last season) had in this decision which just stinks. And I wonder how much the 4 of them know about coaching a team to avoid relegation when your employers have failed miserably to deliver you a striker. They...

    Selles has done one…

    If it has really taken the owner and his team a week (and counting) to review the position of a coach who saved him from relegation, that does seem ridiculous. I just wondered if the silence reflects something bigger - i.e that Acun is actively negotiating with prospective buyers , and that the...

    Selles has done one…

    I'm hoping the speculation over Ruben Selles is overblown and that our owner will see sense, but the thing which seems daftest of all is that I'm sure when he appointed Ruben, he said something about he could have made a safer choice such as Alex Neil but that Selles had greater potential. In...

    Match Day Thread Portsmouth v Hull City

    I think we need Alzate to keep the ball, Puerta for energy and one of Palmer or Crooks. Personally I'd start Palmer. And Gelhardt up front somewhere!

    Best post of the day, surely. Madder things have happened!

    Match Day Thread Portsmouth v Hull City

    Judging from some on here, you'd think we were already down. We've conceded 4 goals in the 7 away games I've seen since Christmas and we've won 4 of them. There's every chance we could get what we need on Saturday and the wallowing in pessimism really ain't helping.

    Yes because Acun's judgement on football matters is so sound.

    Match Day Thread Portsmouth v Hull City

    Agree completely. The idea that the players don't care or lack effort is trotted out virtually every time we have a bad result this season. It was clear the team were working really hard on Saturday, which is why Derby could barely get out of their own half for much of the second half. It's lack...

    Match Day Thread Hull City v Derby

    Wonder if 'worse things happen at sea' was an expression used more by Hull folk than other parts of the country!

    Match Day Thread Hull City v Derby

    50 years ago if i was walking back along Anlaby Rd after a disappointing afternoon, my dear Dad would say, 'Ah well, worse things happen at sea.' Spent 5 hours on the journey back to SW London last night reflecting on a few nautical disasters. I don't have much to add to the generally high level...

    MOTM Preston North End (H)

    He seems to be criticised endlessly! It's Charlie who can't be criticised! In truth, I like both of them and they were both warriors today.

    Match Day Thread Swansea v Hull City

    While performances have been poor since the international break, yesterday seemed particularly flat. It almost felt we had the wrong boots on or something as so slow around the pitch. Their penalty followed about a minute of us being slow and out of position. Not sure if leggy after Coventry...

    Considerably more so than Egan.

    Tan's done one

    All good to hear. I wonder if he should raise his profile a bit? I could probably have searched around and found out he's CEO or COO but suspect I'm not the only one who has thought communication between club and fans seems to have been less vocal since Tan left and Acun developed other interests.

    Tan's done one

    Thank you. So Joe Clutterbrook is actually on the board and responsible for issues around investment in the stadium, pitch, etc? Genuinely just interested to know.
