Hull City manager vows to lose weight

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has reacted to the published unflattering photos of him on holidays on a Barbados beach.

The 55-year-old manager was undefined and has revealed that he has made a vow to his wife to slim down.

"I don't think too many 55-year-olds look that good on a beach do they," he said.

"But I have promised my good lady I will go on a diet.

"So watch out - I'm going to turn into the horriblest, most awkward b******d you have ever come across.

"I have had some letters saying it's nice to see someone relaxing in their own skin - not many mind!"
