Phil Brown: Ledge...

Texture like sun. Oh how he will be missed...

"Don't wanna go home, don't wanna go hooooooome. This is the best trip, I've ever been on." And so it ends. Phil Brown's tenure as Hull City boss, that is. And, love him or hate him, we're definitely going to miss him.

Whether it's his cheeky denials about regular trips to TanFastic, his on-pitch karaoke sessions after an own goal by another team in another game is the only factor that keeps his side up after a tonking by Man Utd's third team, or his perfectly trimmed goatee that completes the "Danny Dyer's boss in a shit Brit flick set in Benidorm" look, the Premier League is a worse place without him. Which makes it a perfect time to produce a ToePoke Videode...
