    I'm not asking for the manager to be sacked, I'm asking him to get our team playing well. That's his job.

    Not exactly. His job is to get the team winning, which he is doing pretty well at the moment.

    He said the other day his job is to balance the books, maybe he's wearing too many hats.

    If he's wearing loads of hats, balancing anything else is bound to be difficult.

    I personally feel that Bruce has failed in his role the past 18 months - a good win against an appalling Ipswich doesn't change that. I think the club needs new management long term as the Bruce/Phelan partnership doesn't seem to being getting the results for the money and facilities Hull have. However, sacking him without a new manager in mind is stupid and whatever one's opinion on Allan, they haven't got a clue who to hire in his place. The issue is that if he's not replaced and Hull fade in the second half of the season after the transfer window is closed, it's a season.. and a lot of money.. wasted and lost.

    Well yeah, it's a part of his job then. Getting a result because the other team is worse than us doth butter no parsnips.

    What a splendid post.

    You're wasted on Torquay, old chap. You should come over support the mighty HAL.

    Once sat in the lower West I saw a middle aged bloke reading a Harry Potter book for the entire game. Queer ****.
