No, you will just have to stay at home nights and weekend to get it in on time, or it's the cane for you me lad
Or, he should have been made to walk in late Dec./early Jan., once another manager had been lined up!
Actually, I thought it was reasonably well timed, and I was extatic to see Dowie take over, just a shame it didn't work out I'd have loves for him to still be here now! Although we are looking very good under Pearson, so yeah time will tell.
I suspect you'll be in the minority, I don't know anyone else who didn't think the Dowie appointment was an unmitigated disaster. You didn't vote for Stacey big nose on the Babes 5 did you?
We beat every team below us, we deserved to stay up. Even if we were the 17th best team in the league. You speak like we had no chance of staying up which is obviously wrong, we had every chance of staying up, wins against Burnley and Sunderland would have seen us do it, not to mention away games against Portsmouth and Wigan. Sacking Brown was a daft decision, AP clearly never thought about who he could replace Brown with and as a result plunged us into further financial trouble. Poor choice of adjectives, Nigel Pearson may be many things, but he is not "vibrant", his team is not "vibrant" and they are definitely not as "hungry" as you make out (well maybe James Harper is), we have a dour team that only knows how to defend and has no plan B, hence our appalling record of being the only team not to win from behind this season. I have no idea who first came up with the usual set of adjectives we get given for this team, but they're just plain wrong. If the team is so exciting why is the atmosphere at the KC the worst it's been since we moved in. The club is going to be mid table Championship for the forseeable future, fact is, a year ago today the last person with any ambition for Hull City was shown the door, the "Dare to Dream" era was over, and now we're settling for being a Championship club with no intention of being anything more. A sad day for Hull City and one in which the club stepped backwards for the first time in a long time.
TWF, you have an interesting perspective on City. I agree with very little of it, but at least it makes me think. We aren't the only team to have not won once behind. Coventry haven't managed it either. Whatever, its a crap record that we need to fix. Conversely once ahead we haven't lost.
That's because when our Plan A of "defend, defend, defend" works, it works well (even if it's hideously boring to watch), but once we go behind we have no Plan B to put into action and the game whimpers out.
You have no idea where this club will be in foreseeable future. The reality is, that we were completely skint until January, due to the financial mismanagement of the previous administration and as soon as the manager was able to pay for players, he brought some in and got us up to eighth(which, for the record, is already better than mid table). At least there's no question of the current manager getting a slice of transfer and agent fees.
OK, TWF has won me over. Everything is dreadful, it's not going to get any better. I can't imagine us wiining a game or ever playing attractive football. I don't know why I bother getting up in the morning because today will be rubbish. No point in entering the lottery, no chance of winning. The economy will never get any better. We're all dooooooooomed.......
Death will be horrible, no release from this drudgery. I bet death will be even worse than life. We'll be in the conference in no time......Doooomed.....
