      Phil Brown been sacked.

      Not sure what the board expect really, got them promoted & kept them up.

      I know he is a bit of a tosser but what caliber of manager do they think they will get now?

      Hull really are a pretty bad team. That said, I was impressed he was able to keep them up last season. They may even survive again this year, who knows. Decent manager in a tough spot....time to pass the earpiece on, Phil.

      can't see the sense in this. how is the new manager going to have any time to change things or sort them out? at least keep pb until the end of the season then get rid surely?

      You often get that short period of success when someone new comes in, but it's not building for the long run. They'll go down eventually. The best thing would have been to change the manager in the summer, money talks though eh?

      Hasn't he only been there a few years? And in those years hes brought them up, and kept them up. If I'm a Hull fan, I'm pretty happy with that.

      Just been reading through all the comments on SSN. Pretty much the only people with bad things to say about Brown are the Scum fans. I wasn't a massive fan of Browns, many of his team selections were questionable and spending 5m (and 40k a week) on a player with no knees is foolish, however you've gotta love the man for getting so far up the Scums nose!

      As the only manager to get Hull City into the Top Flight of English football in their entire history, I'm quite astounded that the board have seen fit to sack Brown with just 10 games left of the current season and with no chance of whoever is now appointed to make any changes in the transfer market.

      There's obviously far more to this than meets the eye.
