To Hull And Back


After a long meeting between Hull City Football Club owners the Allams & their fans spokesman, Andrew Gilt. The controversial Tigers' owners brought an end to the one week long reign of Steve Bruce. The owners blame a "blatant lack of respect" as the reason for Bruce's sacking.
Former Wigan & Sunderland manager Steve Bruce said in his first meeting with the press, "I'm hoping that this job will help me someday become the manager of Manchester United."
The Allams & the fans clearly saw this as a huge kick in the teeth to City fans & the Allams acted quickly, only a week into Bruce's reign.

So, who's next?
Well the owners have stated that they want a local lad in charge, someone who can get emotionally invested in what is going on around the Kc Stadium.

So this can only mean one man, right?
Nick Barmby!
Nope. Despite Barmby being spotted at the Kc Stadium, it turns out he was on a personal visit to old friend & team mate, Andy Dawson.

So who is the new man in charge?
Well, it's local lad, Joseph Wilson.
Wilson has never managed a football team in his life. But this is not an issue for the Allams as they stated, "He hasn't got the experience but, he has the passion, the desire, the ambition & the knowledge! He has lived in Hull all his life."

Can this new man, Joseph. Bring success to arguably Yorkshire's number one?​

James Chester is currently loving life at Hull but, wold the lure of Champions League football be enough to take him away from the Tigers.
