People who demand respect have patently not earned it. Another Warren Joyce, headless chicken.

 

On the subject of Warren Joyce, his Wikipedia is worth a read. Joyce was before my time, but I'm pretty sure he's done it himself going off how it's written:

 

 

Working his way up into the first team he became known for being a tigerish midfielder who never gave less than 100%. This made him a firm favourite with the Burnden Park fans

 

 

 

Over the next five years, he became a much-loved figure at Preston earning himself the nickname "Psycho", due to his never-say-die commitment to the cause

 

 

He soon became club captain at Boothferry Park, putting in some talisman type performances over the next two years. Indeed his influence at the club was so apparent that in November 1998 he was asked to stand in as caretaker manager following the departure of Mark Hateley

 

 

At the time of his appointment, City were rooted to the foot of the Fourth Division table and looked to be heading out of the Football League – and into bankruptcy. However, under Joyce's stewardship, City staged a remarkable turnaround and achieved survival with games to spare; City fans christened this season "the Great Escape". Such is the esteem with which Joyce is regarded by Hull City fans he is assured a hero's welcome every time he returns to the KC Stadium

 

 

 

Anyway, Andrews signed a three year deal last summer on bumper wages. Thanks Coyle.

Only Steve Thompson and Tony Henry stand above Joyce in our midfielders from the 80's.

Apart from Chris Thompson, Peter Reid, Dave Hoggan,Jeff Chandler, Neil Redfearn, Asa Hartford, Julian Darby, Scott Green and Graham Bell.

 

He was on a par with Comstive and that was one step below donkey!
