Phil Brown sacked apparently
Bit bizarre IMO they were unlucky the other day. But legally banned from talking to one of his players and other members publicly fighting while they are in the relegation zone i guess it looks a mess.

Guess we'll be seeing Mr Tango on Kammy's sofa for Goals on Sunday for the forseeable tune.

Re: Phil Brown sacked apparently
Hull City have confirmed Phil Brown has been relieved of his duties and been placed on gardening leave.
As revealed by skysports.com earlier on Monday morning Hull have decided to part ways with Brown as they look to secure survival in the Premier League.
Brian Horton and Steve Parkin have been placed in charge of first-team affairs following Brown's exit.
A club statement read: "Hull City AFC confirms that Phil Brown has been relieved of his managerial duties at the club and has been placed on gardening leave with immediate effect. Brian Horton and Steve Parkin will take charge of first-team duties until further notice.
"We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Phil for the major success achieved during a period of four seasons in charge at the club and wish him every success for the future.
"Promotion to the Premier League in 2008 and retention of our status on the last day of the 2009 season are unique events in the history of Hull City AFC and both were achieved under Phil's stewardship during a period which will never be forgotten by all connected with the club."
Brown took charge of Hull in 2007 and guided them to the Premier League in his first full season in charge of the club.
After a stunning start to life in the Premier League the Tigers managed to avoid relegation from the Premier League on the final day of last season.
However, Hull have continued to struggle this season with the side finding themselves in the drop zone for most of the campaign.
Weird timing

Re: Phil Brown sacked apparently
One thing that struck me is:
...this implies that they're going to be up the shitter financially if they get relegated. they needed to start cutting costs somewhere, so the money Hull will save from all the sun-bed maintenance, and bulk delivery orders of Sunblock is as good a place as any.
In a statement, Pearson said: "Retention of Premier League status is paramount and the board believes that a change in managerial direction is the correct option at this time."

Saw an interview of him after the Everton game. He seems like a man with the right attitude and all.

Re: Phil Brown sacked apparently
It always seems strange when managers are placed on gardening leave. Does that mean he is not essentialy sacked? Something strange must have been going on and Im guessing more revelations may come out in the coming days. It is strange timing from Hull, wonder where they are going to turn next.

The guy's a shit manger and Hull were only kept up by Howard Webb last year. It's no surprise they're in the position they are, they should've got rid of him last summer instead of celebrating as if they had achieved something.

That was an embarassing moment, if only he had enough self-awareness to realise it. A bit like the smog banner at the weekend.

Pretty sure everyone was aware of the banner. Judging by the reaction of the Newcastle fans they took some notice

The overwhelming reaction to the banner has been confusion.

You're exaggerating what happened, it's all on youtube, both sets of fans were shouting abuse, that was pretty much it.

Four times as many away fans were thrown out of the game than the average this season. Unlikely they'd be thrown out for shouting.

Harry "I destroyed Utaka, and was close to do the same with Pavlyuchenko" Redknapp believes that Allardyce is a successful manager because he may avoid the drop.

Whatever. You people are obsessed with us, it reminds me of your chants when you were in the waffa cup, "geordies at home watching the bill". Get a grip, or better yet, get some proper rivals that feel the same way as you, Darlington or someone!
Your species should be keeping it's head down rather than giving it the big one, do you not feel embarrassed about being 25 points behind us?

Re: Phil Brown sacked apparently
Geordies at home, watching The Bill was classic Obviously another chant that got to your lot.
I dont really care about how many points we are behind you no. Promotion would be nice, but to be honest..we would be awful if we get promoted. We'd only come straight back down. As will Newcastle with Hughton in charge of Championship players.
Again though, bit odd that those Newcastle fans reacted so much against a team they dont care about. Odd indeed.

That reminded me about the time in last season's CL Final in Rome when the Mancs started to chant early in the match when Cristiano came close to scoring in the first few minutes "ARE YOU WATCHING MERSEYSIDE"
Then Barcelona threw their first punch and KO Manchester United.
Merseyside answered "YEAH, AND WE'RE LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT"
