Nigel Pearson was saying the same the other day in an interview but said nothing can be done until the ownership of the club is sorted out etc. They need this new buyer to get the deal done quick and get some players moved on in January so he can bring his own in. Good manager is Pearson IMO and will turn it around at Hull given chance but they do need to start picking points up quick or he might not make it till January.
Leeds are so dodgy ATM, when you think they'll win they dont and vice versa, dont draw many either. Should really beat them at home though and the same with Bristol City at the weekend, 2 very winable games which would push us right up the table.
I noticed the last 2 games Larry finally had the balls to drop the underperforming Johnson but he still brings him on after an hour and takes Faye off. Usually he never ever makes changes until the last 15 minutes or so but he seems to have changed it for BJ(i wonder if that's what he's getting from him :NAUGHTY:

). He also dropped Collins win the win at Scunny for O'Brien and stuck with Bruce but then after beating them 4-1 he goes and drops Bruce and puts Collins back in. I wonder if Bruce will come back in for Tuesday even though we won as we let 2 goals in with Collins back in the side? But we've been winning so who am i to moan, Larry has his favourites and thats it. Good to see Gradel back in the side aswell, would like to see Somma get more game time as he is our top scorer and looks a real good find but he's OOC in the summer and if he's sat on the bench every week after scoring 7 in 8 then i dont think he'll be too keen to hang around and why would he. Play 2 strikers at home or give Becchio a well earned rest.
