I asked him on Monday night and he was fairly cagey about it, I think his agent will have a big say on where he is next year. |

I agree with most of that but I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Vas left and Walton came back in as the number one. He is arguably the better shot stopper and his skills with his feet may be less important next year if we become slightly more pragmatic. |

Reply | The awards dinner and this group of players and staff
at 10:52 7 May 2024
I suppose you can never completely rule anything out but I don't think he's going anywhere any time soon.
He's very settled with his family here, he enjoys living in the area, his brother is here now too. He came in viewing this as a long term project and I don't think anything has changed. He's got a great relationship with Ashton, he's got his staff in place and is able to leave a real mark on the place and build a legacy.
He's fiercely ambitious and clearly wants to manage right at the top of the game and no doubt will one day but he's also extremely calculated and methodical and at the moment we can offer him everything he needs. He's clearly one of the hottest prospects in managment right now, but equally I would say we are probably one of the best clubs to manage right now as well. |

Thread | The awards dinner and this group of players and staff
at 10:26 7 May 2024
I was lucky enough to book a table at the awards dinner last night as a present for my Dad's 70th birthday and it turned out to be an utterly surreal experience in view of the way the way the season ended and the celebrations throughout the day.
This group of players and staff are truly exceptional, not only on the pitch but they are absolutely first class individuals off the pitch. Every single one of them was engaging, down to earth and more than willing to sign things and pose for photos. Many seemed truly grateful that the fans wanted to engage with them, they were impecably polite and humble and a credit to themselves. This isn't a normal club and these aren't a normal group of footballers. There is a lot of talk about having the right characters in the dressing room but it was so clear to see last night.
I'm fortunate to know Kieran reasonably well having worked for him since he first came to the club and it was good to catch up with him again last night , everything about him and the way he conducts himself oozes class, along with the rest of his team just a thoroughly nice down to earth bloke. I reminded him that this time last year I sent him a message to say I fully expected us to be in the same position at the end of the championship season and here we are. This time I said I'd settle for European football, so no pressure!
I'd urge you all if you can to watch it back on Town TV, the speaches from Ashton and Kieran are well worth the watch.
It's difficult to see how the club can be any better position than it is now, but hopefully we will be saying just that this time next year. |

I saw him driving towards the training ground this morning in the usual travelling kit, so I would expect he is part of the party heading to Coventry. |

Reply | PLC Share Dividends
at 13:21 29 Apr 2024
The shares were worthless the moment everyone bought them.
The other factor is that they are diluted to such an extent and will only be diluted further that even if a dividend were to be payable it would likely be at such a small level that by the time you administered it there would be next to nothing left to share out. |

I went to Barnsley last year, stayed over in a hotel which was a bit of a novelty and it was one of my best footballing days ever. I've purposely booked a hotel again for Hull to recreate the same vibes this time around. Fortunately I will also be at Coventry too. |

Reply | How much does a football stand cost?
at 09:32 25 Mar 2024
Liverpool were at £114m for their main stand and £80 for the Anfield Road end stand (albeith that cost likely increased).
The Crystal Palace main stand is due to cost £150m.
Fulham's stand cost £120m and still isn't finished.
We're almost certainly looking at £50m+ for a new Cobbold stand, I'd guess perhaps closer to £60m. |

This is what the masterplan currently looks like but I think it's likely a very long way off.

I hope they’re not. Totally different scenarios. Burgess should go, we have cover. Luongo and Mass are at the end of their international careers, Burgess is only starting. |

The pitch is basically sand, reinforced with plastic fibres, I doubt watering it has any impact on stability at all, it won’t become soft like a soil based pitch. |

Reply | Our coaching is our super power
at 09:14 14 Dec 2023
I think you're right, it's all down to the coaching. I don't see why we can't keep this level up, the players aren't suddenly going to forget how to play that way, in fact we will get better week on week.
The strength is in the system and the setup which I think makes us incredibly resilient as we can bring players in seemlessly who all totally buy into it. |
