Beleaguered Hull City boss Phil Brown has announced he is keen to secure the loan signing of the former Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em actor and comedian Frank Spencer, in an attempt to arrest the teams current disastrous slide.
Spencer, the insanely-ridiculous accident-prone buffoon, entertained BBC audiences from 1973 to 1978 with his own inimitable brand of slapstick tomfoolery in any number of manically-devised situations.
Tigers' chairman Paul Duffen believes that Spencer's lunatic charms would perfectly compliment manager Brown's ludicrous team selections of late, and that the actor would be an ideal partner for recent £5million record signing Jimmy Bullard, who is currently laid up after a knee operation and a complete restyling of his curly locks.
Having played only 37 minutes since he arrived, Bullard is seen by many as being the most ridiculous signing ever made by Hull, and Spencer's acquisition would also fit nicely into that category.
The wimpish smiling Frank, sporting his trademark beret and trench coat, turned up at the KC Stadium just before today's 2-1 home defeat to Blackburn, and held a Press conference with Brown after the game.
Brown faced a barrage of questions from reporters on the subject of his bizarre player selections, and when Spencer was asked about Hull's fortunes this afternoon, he turned to the Hull boss and said:
"Oooh, Brownie!"
