    Why would printing this story upset the Allams and risk future access to the club? If anything surely it is a positive as they would be seen to be ambitious.

    Unless your Ehab or close to city you don't know that's the truth. Though I'd imagine it is.

    Does it not seem a bit desperate that were waiting for his hols to finish before he gives us an answer?,He may be dissappointed that he hasnt really been linked to the norwich job and begrudgeingly accept but surely not a good start.Ehab should tell him to be prepared for a press conference friday or fk off.

    so why hasn't it been reported in such terms until now by 'Umbersard and the Hull Daily Mail? Far better to try to create tittle-tattle about Darren Robinson all weekend I suppose?

    With the manager merry go round as it is at the moment, I hope they've got a Plan B.

    Because they dont believe it to be true? Just a guess. Obviously it doesnt mean it isnt true, but if nobody else is speaking on it and his agent flat rules it out they are right to report that. I dont see anyone quoting people when they say Bruce is getting the job.

    And anyway, that doesnt answer my question., How could printing this story possibly upset the Allams?

    To be fair Mike White has been saying similar things on Twitter for the last four or five days.

    exactly. so why not report it instead of others trying to create a non-story about Darren Robinson's impending promotion. all it takes is - "a source close to ...... says:"

    Let's hope a) the story is true, b) he makes his decision in favour of becoming manager today c) we get the press conference asap so we can concentrate on speculating which players will join the club (the thing every club's fans do in the summer)

    For me, if he has to think this much about it then that is not good. He will be after another decent job when it comes up. But we don't know the story. Some say he has been offered the job some say no contact so we are still only guessing.

    I think the HDM are just worried about getting it wrong. They are the local paper so they would get criticized more than the Yorkshire Post would if they got it wrong. Mike White has been tweeting about it being Bruce but things can change so quickly and with the Allam's themselves not saying much it is probably safest to wait for them or more likely their PR company to issue some kind of statement. Saying that it will probably be twitter where the story breaks.

    I posted elsewhere on here that Bruce was probably hanging on for a better offer (in his own mind), we just had Nigel Pearson at the club who allegedly didn't want to be here and now we might be getting another one just the same, well done to the owners.

    Seems as if hes waiting for the prem clubs to settle down, Norwich and Swansea need a new manager i think, cant say ive been keeping upto date... oh also Chelsea, but he'll be waiting for that call for years <laugh>

    The way the press has made it sound like its his to turn down, followed by his silence, suggests that its a bit of a last resort if he really wants to get back into management.

    Well we know where your biased loyalties lie:

    If the HDM had written that you'd have been spitting feathers.

    ....and this from the fan of a club that appoints Sven Goran Eriksson to be their manager, gives him £25 million to spunk then sacks him after just 12 months!

    You couldn't make it up!

    Now fcuk off back from where you came and continue your wet dream about signing our players.
