They have disliked the Venkys for a while tbf.

Obviously no one would compare to Jack Walker for them, but going back over the last decade and a half, there's been transfer embargos, mismanagement and stupid prioritising in abundance during their tenure (the ridiculous situation of a club being slap bang next to a river and STILL not having adequate drainage for their pitch whenever it pisses down only one issue)

They're not quite in the same bracket as Chansiri at the Owls, or even Charlie Amer at Boro in the mid-eighties, but they're still undeniably erring on the side of crap, as far as owners go.

Hull City Facebook fans.

‘Baz cooper from the HDM has confirmed that Hull city have had to submit an updated business plan in regards to the clubs finances for the coming year.

As a result, the EFL has now restricted the club to a one in one out transfer system, still complying with the restrictions under the embargo, which was ordered at the start of the season.

As a result, this means that city cannot sign anybody until they have sold or moved another player on.

Certain names have circled the rumour mill on potential arrivals. But this now means in order for the club to bring in new players. Current players have to leave the club first. the club still need to bring in £10 million by the 30th of June in order to comply with championship PSR governance.

so who would you like to see Leave the club and who would you like to see the club sign. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.’

Well. If it is one in, and one out, and they need 10 million quid. I'd say a ballpark figure of.... 10 million quid at a guess!

There is no way they will sell Hughes whilst playoffs are possible. More likely fringe players

Good appointment, proved himself at Southampton by helping to ensure they are are really far off autos - hopefully he can do the same at Leicester.

I'd say it is a tussle between the ownership in this case one trying to exert influence!

Boro are gonna go hard.. they have plenty of cash to burn from sales in summer.

Looks like they going for Hughes and Sarmiento. They realise also this is a great opportunity.

Any links to Hughes for them that isn't the one FLW "piece" or a repost of this?

I kind of hope we rage bait Hull by putting exactly the same bid in for Hughes again.

FLW started it, everything else is based on their 'exclusive understanding'.

Basically he played well against Middlesbrough so they've decided they'll now be after him.

Next West Brom manager odds: Lee Carsley early favourite to replace Ryan Mason

We take a closer look at the latest betting odds for who will be named as the new manager of West Brom
www.independent.co.uk

Can't see Carsley leaving a cushy job in the England set up to go there

Would be absolutely hilarious if they appointed Russell Martin
