Looks like it could well be Lee Clarke with Kevin Keegan as DOF for Leicester. Personally I'd be very happy with that, Clarke is proving himself to be a great up-and-coming manager at Huddersfield with them now 41 games unbeaten. And after everything that happened at Newcastle with Dennis Wise I think that Keegan will make a very good director of football. Certainly this is looking the most likely option at the moment and I'd be very pleased to see it happen.
Apparently we're in talks with Mark Hughes now. Just can't wait till we've got a new manager.

Great 3-0 away win at Derby tonight, Malky Mackay is awesome fair play, so glad he's representing this club. Hope we can go on a little run, but the main thing is we don't lose many.

More then pleased about today's result, Beating Sheffield United was HUGE and we deserved to win that game and not even a dodgy ref could stop us. Mark Roberts was inspiring today, brilliant defending and scoring a nice goal, A proper captains performance. 7th in the league and already beaten Both Sheffield's and Charlton. Not bad for a team that was non-league 2 years ago.

Awesome result today for us, we are slowly getting it together and with a couple more players could be contenders.

I've read alot of articles about Westley telling your players to feign injuries to allow kind of 'time out' situations where he can give players instructions, as a Stevenage fan do you view it that way?

Up yours Nigel Pearson!
Great result for Hull! Teach that C*** for leaving.
I do think Hull have a good enough squad to gain promotion.
Nick Barmby should stay as the manager <3

We're having such a brilliant season considering all the players that've left and come in. Another win at home today. Malky Mackay is a brilliant manager!

Nick Barmby should stay as the manager <3 Nigel Pearson has done nothing wrong, certainly nothing that warrants being called a ****. Hull where a stop-gap for him, he only left Leicester because he fell out with are director and felt unwanted by the club. He said as much to the Hull media. At Leicester the vast majority of fans loved Nigel Pearson, at Hull you where calling for his head very early on in his run as manager. He had much success at Leicester, was supported by the fans, was living fairly near to his place of birth. Why on earth should Nigel Pearson have been loyal to Hull fans who wanted him out when things didn't go perfectly from the word go, instead of joining a club that he has a real affinity with? As for Nicky Barmby it's far too early to determine whether or not he's going to be a successful manager. Winning his opening game as many managers do. Then having his Hull side throw away a lead against Burnley (Who weren't exactly in great form at the time) and Southampton before barely scraping a win against a side who played the vast majority of the game with 10 men. I have no doubt in my mind that Leicester will be finishing above Hull this season with NP at the helm (And that's not about the respective sizes of Hull and Leicester, I said a couple of pages back that I felt Hull under Pearson would probably get promoted), I can understand why you would feel bitter as I'm sure that Hull would have been finishing in the Play-Offs this season under Nigel Pearson. Without him? I think it's unlikely, Pearson's sides are built more on being a good motivated unit than being full of quality players (Which was proven when Sousa took over Leicester). Congratulations on your win, but I'm sure that Nigel Pearson wont be losing any sleep over it, and it's not like either of our seasons rested on it. Perhaps you should be reading more into how many points our respective sides have taken from the first 4 games under their new managers.[/rant]

I understand where you are coming from and Hull have stuggled in the last couple of games. I do think that Hull will still finish in the play off spots this season. What is your opinions on Cameron Stewart? He is a top winger who has bags of talents in my opinion.

Answering this latter then should have but To be fair, when we started in League 2, I will admit we did do that and our fans hated it, but when our players adapted (mid season) It stopped and I cannot remember us doing it for a while now, Definitely haven't seen it this season. We do get alot of hate form other teams still for the physical game we play but to be fair, We don't do anything against the rules, however it can be ugly to watch, But other times we can play the best football in the league. I've heard rumors that Stevenage could lose probably our best players Lawrie Wilson and John Mousinho. Apparently 2 or 3 Championship teams are interested. If they leave it will be a major blow to our team as Mous' is our play maker and Wilson is so crucial to the attack.
