ROBBIE Brady and Josh King will be allowed back out on-loan next season – but City boss Steve Bruce is yet to give his old club a call regarding their availability.

Both starred in the black and amber last season, Brady making 41 appearances and scoring three goals while King weighed in with one goal from 19 outings.

    Spectacular: Robbie Brady produced some memorable moments for Hull City last season.

Both the youngsters are due back at Old Trafford next week, but with Bruce still mulling over his plans for next season, their re-appearance at the KC is in the balance.

Red Devils’ reserve team boss and former City manager Warren Joyce confirmed: “Robbie and Josh will definitely go out on loan again but at this time of year they have the chance to catch the manager’s eye. They will feel they have a chance to go on the first-team tour and that leaves for South Africa and the Far East on July 17.

“They will get games and they will hope to show the manager how close they are to the first team.”

City’s plans for the pair are, therefore, on hold until the youngsters are informed they have no place in Sir Alex Ferguson’s plans for his Premier League campaign.

That may take at least another month, and Joyce added: “No decisions have been made on any of our players yet. The trouble is with the Euros and the Olympics and the youth Euros there are a lot of our players out on international duty and I’ll know more next week.

“Josh and Robbie will start back at the club next week but everyone will be at a different stage when they get back to the club in terms of their preparation. It’s a case of getting everyone together and letting them get the first few weeks under their belts.

“You can’t really talk about plans at this stage as they can easily get turned on their head.”

Joyce expects the blossoming relationship between the Tigers and United – which began under Phil Brown – to prosper into the future, especially given new boss Bruce’s historic links with Old Trafford.

Joyce added: “I’d certainly expect the link to remain with City and United.

“I’d have thought anything was possible regarding Robbie and Josh, and there are certainly other players ready for the Championship.

“I thought Robbie began the season well for City but didn’t do too well after Christmas.

“As regards Josh, City fans didn’t see the best of him, although I think he’ll be back to his best next season.

“I know what he’s like when he’s at it but he wasn’t running fit when he was at City and that was because of his experience at Borussia Monchengladbach and before that at Preston where he got injured.”

Another United pair being monitored at the KC are Ryan Tunnicliffe and Michael Keane, who also look set for greater things next season.

Joyce added: “There’s bound to be interest from the Championship as they both did well last year.

“The reserves won everything and Keane won player of the year. For sure he will go out on loan but Tunnicliffe may well be around the first team."

    “Folk are amazing: last summer we were sat in the Oddfellows Arms in Keswick, soaking up good ale and music after a great day's walking. The 'Turn' did the usual round the room, where are you from, of the audience. He got to a couple who were sat a few seats up and asked them; Beverley was the man's answer – where is that then, asked the Turn. The guy looked at the wife and said that "Beverley is a suburb of York"; I nearly choked on my pint of Sneck Lifter and burst out laughing. It was then that I blew out the snobbish git and explained that Beverley is far closer to Hull than York. His wife laughed at him, finished her drink, told everyone she was from Hull and proud of it, then off she went into the distance, him trailing behind with his head down. Everyone had a great laugh, more to drink and joined in with some great songs – the walk home was more tricky that the big one during the day!

    I can recommend the Oddies for the excellent beers and fun entertainment – but eat elsewhere!

    I was going to post this on Facebook or Tweet it, but I felt the HDM deserved a scoop!

    Fortunately it is a yarn and not an opinion, so I have not had to have it vetted by Big Brother.”

    ."OaktownTiger, I usually like reading your posts, you obviously enjoy your football.
    Your reference to the people of Hull was offensive... Im born and bred in Hull and can assure you I'm neither narrow minded or nasty and nor are the large majority of people I know that live here. Theres narrow minded nasty people all over the world wouldn't you say? Not just in Hull."

    my apologies and mistake I should have said "my wife (who's from Beverley) said some of you people.......”

    “Oaktown, not wanting to jump on the bandwagon, but locally, we normally refer to the top teams in Hull as "Hull or FC" for the rugby team that play in black and white from the west of the city, "Rovers or KR" for the rugby team that play in red and white from the east of the city, and "City or The Tigers" for the football team that plays in black and amber.”

    “Now that they will spend another season on loan does this mean ManUtd want to get rid of them they would be good loans. Regarding M Keane and R Tunnicliffe they would link up well with the other youngsers and maybe help the likes of Cullen, Cooper ect”

    “if we could get them both back it would be a huge boost, they would be very few teams that could deal with a midfield and forward line of

    Brady, Evans, Koren, Stewart
    King, Fryatt

    those guys speed and skill would equal a top 2 or play off spot guaranteed !”

    “They sound like good players, and I agree that we may not have seen the best of Josh King last season as we only saw glimpses of the player he could be, his pace could be a key asset to us with him playing just off Emile Heskey (should we sign him) as soon as king improves his touch on the ball he'll be unstoppable in the Championship, UTT”

    “Just stuff that's been on the forums for a couple of weeks.

    I never use to believe rumours and stuff but after reading about Steve Bruce being a done deal and then about Andy Dawsons extra year long before any where else I am now sure the club are talking to one or two people and letting fans know that things are happening.

    TWT as the Mr Tickler would say.”
