if we were still looking at camara or harewood i would consider signing him - he can score goals.
those artices however point to the obvious differences in brown's and tp's style of man management and tony could sort him out

I don't think he'd pass Pulis' supposed 'half a million calls' background check. How many' incidents' has he been involved in, in his 6 months at Hull?

We should really have enough up front - Fuller, Kitson, Beattie, Sidibe, Cresswell. We need service to them from the midfield.

To be fair to Tangoman, it seems like the player's got a bit of an attitude problem. Fair play to Brown if he's sent King packing.

Sorry, scfclifer (and Salop) this story says more about King than it does about Brown. Brown isn't my favourite manager by any means (he irritates me) but he can't afford unrest in his squad and if King is being disruptive then Brown was right to send him packing from the ground and would be right if he felt it best to terminate the loan deal. We have had similar problems at Stoke (was it Leon Cort who stormed out a few months back?) and it is usually more by luck than judgement as to whether the story hits the media.

he keeps things in house when it suits, Pulis was very vocal on Bangoura in the press but then he wasn't one of 'his' players was he, whereas the criticism of Fuller was very very tame.
If you believe the same papers that are saying King has fallen out with Brown, than Pulis has trouble with our squad over the lenient treatment of Fuller so this would seem to indicate he isn't a better man manager as Brown has only fallen out with one player.

I just wonder how much of this is related to Brown's treatment of his players during half time at Manchester City?
Is there is an undercurrent of resentment towards him and was being dropped the catalyst for King's apparent outburst? Didn't Windass (who played at Man City) also take a parting shot at Tango before he left for Oldham recently?
Is there trouble at t'mill at the KC? Let's hope so.

i couldnt care less if Fuller bent him over & gave him a reach around in the centre circle... we dont need King... we need another creative midfielder..

If you want to compare the all round management skills of Tango and Pulis, then I think you could have a very good debate about their respective abilities in areas such as tactical nouse, player knowledge, business acumen, etc. However man-management is the one facet of the job where TP scores highly, and Phil Brown certainly doesn't. Brown has too much of an ego, and as his publicity-seeking antics at Citeh the other week demonstrated, he doesn't know the first thing about how to deal with "staff problems". That said, if the stories about Marlon King are true, then Tango has done the right thing in sending him packing.

Love the fact that its all starting to go horribly wrong for Tango.
No disrespect to the players and over staff at the KC (well minus ex Vale Horton) but I just want to see Tango fall flat on his face, get sacked then crawl back into football oblivion. Maybe he could get a job in Spain, would suit his tan.

Depends on what you define as ego really, I'd say stating in the press you'd take a team up with the budget a certain manager has if you'd been given it would be quite egotistical.
People don't like Phil Brown which is fair enough but lets have some consistency if its down to his poor man management King flounced out of the KC because he wasn't picked than how can Pulis be an expert in man management if two of his players come to blows on the pitch ?!
