THIS IS ABYSMAL

WHY ARE WE LETTING THIS MAN LOOSE ON OUR CLUB?!?!?!?!?
 
Give the guy a chance! He is a former Premier league manager who did well at Hull. Not sure who you expected us to appoint maybe Sir Alex or Jose??

Not according to that list of transfers he didn't.

That's an appalling transfer record.

39 players and £20m+ and not one that could objectively be described as a success.

Why do we need a former Premier League manager? There are people with better transfer records in the Blue Square Premier.
 
Good to see we are going to give him a fair objective go!
You could actually apply your formula many ways; both positive or negative.
i am happy at the appointment. A lot of decent names there; would be quite happy for a few of them to end up here:winking:
 
I doubt we'll sign any of those players.

We'll have to wait and see for the off season.

I think there will be a major clear out, probably only about five players retained.

There must be quicker ways to have a go at a manager who has not even had one game with us yet. Andy why do you have to shout. Also 100 league games takes over 2 full seasons and not sure how long he was at each club.
 
Just thinking that if we lose tomlin in the summer, will brown go in for Craig fagan? He is at bury ATM but in sure will be without a club come the summer.

To be fair the player turnover probably says more about the clubs states at the time than the manager

Does that zero total for incoming transfer fees include the £4,000,000 they got for Michael Turner in 2009?

Or are you only counting players he actually signed ?
 
That shows is he was unable to attract decent players to Hull despite having money to spend (a bit like us when we were in the Championship )

He spend 14M and kept Hull in the premiership, I think most newly promoted clubs would take that , particularly as the players , given where they went , were not what some would call premier class (maybe shows he can motivate ?)
Spent a further 5M the next season and failed to keep them up.

20M for a manager who has got a team out of the championship relegation zone , then into the playoffs and has had 18 months in the Prem doesn't sound an awful lot to me.

As for selling on players , recouping transfer fees is not something a club aspiring to get into the prem , or trying to stay in it , generally prioritises.

YB I can understand your scepticism about PB, I am far from convinced he is the man for the job myself, but this list does not reinforce your belief.

Might be time to reign it in a bit mate, before you shift from a respected poster to another Glasgow/Inerpol
 
What terrible signing Dean Windass was. £150,000 for a player who scores a major goal for promotion to the Premier league sounds a bargain.

...but then as YB says. If he doesn't play over 100 games it counts for nothing :headbang:
