    Here we are again. No manager, Allams looking to do things 'on the cheap' by appointing trusted failure AKA Kevin Blackwell. Failed at TWS, Failed in the 'Steel City' yet he is the one for us. I know some will slate me for this but are we now seeing the Allams true colours? There are well proven managers out there yet we (to quote the Hull Dail Fail) are happy to sit back and in no hurry to appoint,whilst all the truely ambicious clubs 'mop up' any free transfers worth having, leaving the 'dregs' for us.
    Well Mr Allam, if you are happy to 'sit back n wait' then so will I when it comes to renewing my season pass. ( no I am not one of the 'premier league' hangers on but a supporter of over 45 years) who has grown weary over all the false promises and false claims made by you. If you sincerely do have ambition for Hull City (as you claim) now is NOT the time to be doing things on the cheap. As a businessman you should know you have to speculate to accumulate. We MUST look to appoint a proven manager like say Mick McCarthy who knows this league and has a tactical know-how when we are struggling. A manager who is respected enough to attract the right quality of player needed, not 'has beens' looking for an easy life.
    So please, put your words into action, and get it sorted!!!!

    I completely agree with this! HOWEVER... it was the Daily Fail that said we were in for Blackwell; so to me it's simply rumour. Can't believe I'm saying this but I think the Allam's will come good in the end; that is IF they manage to keep all our key players, sign 3 or 4 with a net worth collectively of £4/5 million and don't cock something else up in the fan/board relationship!

    IMO Lee Clark could be the man to take us forward; but that's just my opinion!
    Keep the faith!

    Nice piece of over reaction. You should get your blood pressure looked at, something is seriously not right with you.

    Considering many options, exercising due diligence, not giving the Fail any inside info for them to write, thats what the Allams are doing.

    And the 'overreaction of the day' award goes to....

    We won't appoint Blackwell, that was some bollocks posted on football-rumours.com, repeated by a kid on the Fail site(not by the Fail) and then repeated in the Mirror(who apparently get all their news from football message boards nowadays).

    The Allam's need the fans back onside, they won't appoint a talentless herbert like Blackwell.

    I understand what you are saying, but as a City fan for roughly the same amount of time you must be used to it now!! I am. Whoever is appointed they will be backed by the faithful, there's too much negativity on these boards at the minute, wait for the manager to be appointed, get behind them and cheer the team on

    I think he has a valid point and I too would want a proven championship manager and what he also says regarding other teams getting in before us on free transfers is also a valid point, just my opinion chaps .

    The transfer thing becomes an issue if we take too long to appoint someone, but I'll be amazed if we don't appoint someone before the pass renewals go out in two weeks time, so it's probably not going to be that much of an issue. As for complaining about who we appoint, it's normal to know who is being appointed, before complaining about them.

    Talk about jumping the gun.

    We seem to be linked to a new manager every day- Blackwell is just todays rumour.

    My opinion mate. That's what this forum is supposed to be about. It's easy to criticise others without actually offering your own thoughts. As for over reaction of the day! I've read similar comments on here from other posters who, like me, are genuinely very concerned about our situation and ( to reduce blood pressure) would like a quick resolution in place.

    Not really a constructive reply though is it, if everybody made comments like that then this forum would be unreadable

    I wouldn't mind but it wasn't even the HDM that posted it, it was just someone who made a post saying we're in for him, might make my own saying we're after Jan Molby.
