Phil Brown

Gutted. One of the N&R FL Blog's most popular Premier League managers today had his sun bed turned off and was put on 'gardening leave.' Gardening leave in Mallorca might allow old Perma Phil to top up his tan, but Humberside....

Phil Brown who took over from Hull when they were 3rd from bottom of the Championship from a complete c0ck called Phil Parkinson, kept them up and then the next season got Hull promoted to the top tier for the first time in 104 years in 2008.

Then after an incredible start to last season, the Tigers avoided relegation on the last day as Newcastle went down instead. This season Hull are fighting it out at the bottom with Pompey, Burnley, Bolton, Wolves, Wigan and West Ham but the Hull board couldn't wait and made the decision to replace Brown this morning.
