Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Tue, 03/16/2010 - 03:22

Hull City hero Dean Windass hailed the impact made at the KC by Phil Brown after the manager was placed on gardening leave yesterday.

Windass was a key part of the Tigers side that memorably gained promotion to the top flight in 2008 under the guidance of Brown.

And he told Sky Sports News: "I feel very sorry for Phil. He's the most successful manager Hull have ever had.

"He was a great manager for me and a good coach as well. It's a sad day for Phil.

"He's done a fantastic job in the time he's been there. To take us (into the top flight) after 104 years was a great journey for us. All good things come to an end but he was a good friend and always will be."
