Has Elephant Man done enough with Hull this season to get the gig?

Worst ever title defence since Blackburn slipped from top to seventh 95-96


They have to win two of their last four just to match Blackburn's points total from that year, and Blackburn only finished 21 points off the top.

My favourite memory of Davey was the post match interview after we had beaten them at the swamp and he admitted that we were e team that the scum should aspire to be. Couldn't have been better scripted if it had been written by our pr department.

So long Davey, I will miss you.

Dear David,

As my tears flow I write this letter to you with deepest support and thanks for your efforts. I find quite sad the behavior of your former employers. They groomed you and thrust you into the spotlight with no regard for your future or well being. You revolutionized the training world when you added the ipads and secured 2 world class players at a great rate and successfully negotiated a new contract for your unsettled star player. How did they repay your love? With treachery, just like your former employers. Promising you time support and money yet giving you nothing in abundance. You will rise above and face those snakes again Davey mark my words and you will get three points(or a draw) every time. If you need anything let me know. And remember.........

I'm devastated a great man like that cast aside. Ill miss his incompetence and lack of tactical ability. Wonder where he will end up perhaps at Palace after the scum sign Pulis!! Still I hear they are donating the banner to the museum of football. Pity I thought we could rescue it and put in our stadium as a memorial to this the greatest of scum managers.
Cant wait for the "welsh wizard" (Merlin I assume they mean) to manage for the rest of the season no doubt starting by instilling some family values and integrity into the team.

I hope they get themselves another manager of the same ability as Moyes. They truly deserve one.

I'm already working on agent Van Gaal.

Last time he left Barcelona they were 3 places off the relegation zone!

Louis van Gaal I would not be worried out.

Ancelotti however is a different matter. They would challenge fir league next year imo if he went there
