  • Give Hughes till Christmas - none of this three years rubbish

    I don't think MH is a great manager, but I think everyone deserves a proper chance. He was ok at Wales, did a good job at Blackburn, but was rubbish at Man City and Fulham. When we were going looking for a new manager, and had money to spend, I was hoping we'd go for someone like Martin O'Neill, Paul Lambert or Sean O'Driscoll, as I believe those are quality managers who, with money to spend, will spend it wisely and create a good team. However, we gave it to MH, and he has now spent a lot of money and bought a lot of players, and so he will have to start delivering soon. What I don't want happening is for us to continue struggling in the bottom half of the table, and for MH to say he is working on a 3 year plan - I am sorry, that's just too much. What guarantee do we have that after 3 years, the side would have improved? None whatsoever. We have a really good squad that is better than half the teams in the league. If by Christmas we're not performing as a top-ten side, then it will have to be good-bye MH.

          No one should get 3 years if they are failing. Remember what was said at the end of last season.......no relegation scrap.

            My worry is that this is the 3rd time this season (Swansea, Spurs & Reading) where everyone's been raving about how awesome we are looking in the first half but (a) we don't get out of sight whilst playing awesome and (b) the opposing manager seems to react to our game plan at half time and we seem unable to react to their reaction....we've been poor in the second half of games that we had been cruising in because teams adjust to how we are playing.

                  He was 3 points off 14th place. They managed to win just 11 games the whole season - with the squad they had, that was rubbish.

                    Yes. I didn't see the game today, but against Swansea and Spurs, we were by far the better side, and then just crumbled.

                      If we don't pick up wins I reckon he'll be gone at Int break in Oct, give a new man time with the players who aren't on int duty

                          As I said, it was very tight - if they had 3 less points, they would have finished 14th. That's how tight the table was.

                          I saw some of their games, and they were not good. Considering they had a decent squad, I do think it was rubbish.

                            Ok mate, if you was expecting us to get near 8th this season then I think you was always gonna be disappointed ..

                              I make you right about Hughes tactical ineptitude. If you can be out thought tactically by AVB you really have to worry!
