Liam Rosenior

To be fair Hull scored 68 league goals compared to our 52.

Rosenior will feel like Brazil 70 compared to what we had last season ;)

I’m not a massive fan of Roseinor, but why would anyone listen to the Hull owner?

He watches them every week, knows how he wants his team to play and sees that not only was Rosenior not even attempting to come close to that, but he was also failing to get them the playoffs with his own turgid style, which would have been the only way he could've tried to justify the style.

I actually think that all things considered Rosenior is the best option from all of the realistioc candidates mentioned so far, Still may have been great but it was high risk and i'm assuming Cooper was never realistic.

Rosenior seems to be intelligent, personable, respected, carries himself well and has reasonable relevant experience with pretty good stats behind him.

The opinion of the Hull owners seems to me to be not of any great value, owners are usually just football fans who happen to have lots of money.

Hull city fans will come in many shapes and sizes but of the ones i have spoken to there are more who wanted to keep him than the few who didn't and funnily enough it was the ones with more football knowledge that were more positive about him.

My response to Rosenior would be similar to the appointments of Alex Neil and Tony Mowbray. I wasn’t genuinely excited by the prospect of either but confident they’d be capable of doing a decent enough job.

As it happens both exceeded my expectations.

At least he has experience of managing at this level.

It’s not inspiring but I would expect him to get us top half and with a bit of luck, a play off push

My main issue, which is probably not the right attitude to have tbf, is that I just think the whole place needs a lift, including the fan base. Mentioned yesterday that I think we're in a similar place to when Keane came in. It just galvanised everyone, got them excited again. It was a risk, a massive one, but it got everyone excited and on board again.

Pascal is hardly Keano, but I think going for someone with European experience, a really good record so far in football, no notable failures, it will just seem more like what we expect for a team with a foreign owner scouring European markets for players. We'll be able to believe, however fleetingly, that maybe they actually have a plan and know what the fuck they're doing.

Rosenior is probably an okay appointment. He's got championship experience, he seems to get on well with his players. But it's just a bit dull. He's also got a record of not getting a side into the play offs that was probably closer to being ready for it than we are. Which makes me wonder what kind of position he'd be able to get us into. Safe mid table unless we do a hell of a lot of impressive business?

Like I say, I know it's not right, but he just feels like a boring, unambitious appointment that will play mind numbing football and ultimately not pull up any trees. I want to think the ownership will actually take a few risks, aim high etc, and he's not the man that would demonstrate that.

And that's before we look at the fact that the head coach model is meant to ensure you can keep a consistent style of play. Not sure he plays similar football to Mowbray, who didn't play similar football to Beale. If he comes hopefully he'll get it right, but it certainly wouldn't help me to have any faith that the ownership know what they're doing or that they genuinely want to get us promoted any time soon
 
If Rosenoir would we be after him. If he does come the reasons are he's out of work, relatively cheap and everyone we really wanted has turned us down.

That's not really good enough though.

we need manager who is going to get us promotion - and the play offs should be the least we expect.

This can't go on anymore - this giving the club a free pass to under perform.

If a top half finish is the best that Rosenior can do for us then he isn't the manager/coach we want.

I know what you're saying, but experience managing at this level didn't seem to have much of an impact on teams gaining promotion last season.

Who fits that criteria then? Only coaches who have delivered promotions before?

That’s a short list if you’re looking at recent Championship bosses who’ve achieved that. And two of them, Heckingbottom and Parker, have been roundly criticised on here.
