There has been all sorts of talk up there that Duffen had gone yesterday.MJH-12 wrote:To be confirmed apparently! Don't shoot the messenger, I'll keep you posted if I hear anything further
How long do you think before some sections of the Reebok start chanting for him to replace Megson? It'd be the wrong move but there's never a great deal of rationalism within the White Army eh?BWFC_Insane wrote:There has been all sorts of talk up there that Duffen had gone yesterday.MJH-12 wrote:To be confirmed apparently!

I don't know. I think even the most vociferous Megson outs realise that Phil Brown isMJH-12 wrote:How long do you think before some sections of the Reebok start chanting for him to replace Megson?

A) Shit.
B) A bit of a mentalist.
C) Completely deluded like his former boss FSA - but with even less to back up said delusion.
He has destroyed himself with a little help from the media.

Without suggesting I want Brown to replace Megson, a bit of consistency here please. You often argue that Megson's "character" shouldn't be called into question, it's results that count.BWFC_Insane wrote:I don't know.

Records only tell you so much. Hull are in serious financial trouble because they have gambled on becoming an established premiership team. If you take that gamble and give the manager the money then you will be judged more harshly.Worthy4England wrote:Without suggesting I want Brown to replace Megson, a bit of consistency here please.

In 12 years, Megson has managed the sum total of taking West Brom from Championship to Premiership twice, but not managed to keep them there even though he didn't get the opportunity second go. Not bad for a championship manager.
Brown has taken Hull up once and kept them up in a four year career. When it comes down to it - not sure there's much to differentiate, other than Brown hasn't (yet) needed to get them promoted again.
Any comparison between Allardyce's Prem record and Megson's is purely for shits n giggles...
I think the official line was he "exaggerated the incident massively". A few days later he was on the radio crazily backtracking from his previous statements!officer_dibble wrote:Did I read that he made up "saving" the suicide victim on the bridge as well?
Duffen has gone.bobby5 wrote:Looks like Brown is on his way. Far too much speculation for it not to happen now. Especially the Derby thing.
Who the hell they think will replace him is anyones guess. Not an attractive job. Though Steve Bruce might be tempted.
Inevitable he will go now though. Far too many negative vibes coming out of Hull. Play Burnley on Saturday, a fixture Hull must be expecting to win. If he does go I hope he learns from his mistakes as his tenure so far at Hull has been a success.BWFC_Insane wrote:Duffen has gone.bobby5 wrote:Looks like Brown is on his way.

Brown has not.
It seems like Brown will get to stay for now. But Duffen was his main (and by the sounds of it ONLY backer within Hull) so he could be in trouble in the near future!

Would have thought that fan club was decreasing quite rapidly, and nothing to do with Megson.ratbert wrote:Plenty others do though...bobby5 wrote: I wouldn't want him at Bolton though, far too smug.
