F****ing good job. Need a Coach who can get the best the best out of youngsters next season and form a solid unit like our friends down the road.
Are we expecting Arsenal's Carlos Cuesta? Might be a risk given a lack of managerial experience Someone out of the left field, e.g. Liam Rosenior, although he'd be expected to do better with us than achieved with Hull
Not sorry to see Wagner go..today was an awful watch. Good as Leeds were, we offered sweet FA in all areas. Rowe doesn't need mentors like Barnes to show him crappy ****housery, nor a manager that promotes such an approach. We had a centre back who has just caused a drunk driving accident, playing over the 2 legs. **** that for management and **** that for demonstrating an approach to our youth coming through of accountability. Clear out the old doofers who offer no identity and give the youth a go next season. Rant over!
On a whim? You must be joking. Some of us could see this coming months ago: "It's surely obvious to everyone that Wagner is not the future.........." (Jan 14th on the How long do we give him? thread).
That's 2 negative managers we've had in a row now. Just hope the next one is forward thinking, and likes to actually play football. I commented on a Hernández post about missing the days when we used to try and win games, and he liked it.
Really !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For all his faults, I don't see not being able to bring on youngsters as being a particular one. Certainly did more than Smith ever did.
And the first time we play on the front foot and lose our so called fans will be on his back. Fans only rant on about attacking focused football when it works. There's always plenty of know it alls that as soon as things don't work out, start ranting and raving about the need to be more defensive. Don't get me wrong I'm quiet a big fan of the 'We'll score 1 more than you approach', but I don't think the majority of our so called fans have got the stomach for it, they used to, but not now. Too much short termism for me.
Some interesting and telling comments on the BBC article about Wagner's sacking. We are not and are not seen as the club we once were. We are in danger of throwing the baby out with the bath water and becoming just another also ran club. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpvg3kz91ngo
Cuesta from Arsenal is strongly rumoured. If nothing else, I'm glad the sacking happened the moment the season ended. Gives us the best chance of finding the next coach before the transfer window opens and pre-season starts. Has felt like the writing was on the wall, not surprised that this action was taken.
The club had booked a holiday from today till Monday 20th for the players and their families. It got cancelled last night at about 10.30pm
"We are not and are not seen as the club we once were. We are in danger of throwing the baby out with the bath water and becoming just another also ran club." Really? What exactly in the article says anything of the sort?
Just having a read through after last night and wondered what the reaction would be to Wagner leaving. From teams I've watched this season I'd suggest Liam Rosenior is your man. Hull have been excellent to watch under his guidance. That was a strange sacking. Rosenior would get you back playing like you lot want imo.
I'm a Hull City season ticket holder and to be honest some of our home performances last season were a toss up between $hite or bloody awful...Losing at home to be likes of Swansea (who fair play to them, were good on the day), and Stoke (who were Stoke) and Watford (who were Watford), plus drawing 9 at home ensured we didn't get a playoff place. When it should have been a foregone conclusion. Be careful of what you wish for...Some iffy substitutions and no Plan B when things went tits-up. Also kept faith with players who were lacking form..
