This is my biggest concern, Groucho.
He didn’t “nearly” rescue Hull....he had already rescued them and things were looking good for them with three matches left.
He had them in the lifeboat and a fairly calm sea to row away in......home to already relegated Sunderland where a win would leave them four or five points clear of Swansea who were playing later that day.
They lost.
Hull collapsed in those final three games....it was way worse than owt that had came before his arrival.
I think they lost those last three games by an aggregate of 13-1
In fact, I do believe their last six games yielded one win, one draw and four defeats.
From memory, Hull ended up further from safety in the final placings than they were on the day of his arrival.
Look. I will give him 100% support if and when he comes in here but I for one do not find his record at Hull any glowing recommendation
