Surprised that he has not managed his beloved Sheffield Wednesday, yet ?. Sadly he stayed too long here and the final season spoilt it all. -
He might look miserable, but just supposing he had the talent to keep us up ?. So many candidates are rejected for silly reasons ie Steve Bruce-looks like an old woman, Malky Mackay- because like Bryan Gunn he used to play for us, . I remember that Paul Lambert''s appointment did not exactly delight many here either. Managerial appointments are all luck, how many really work out well ? -
Well if that''s the case. why doesn''t he announce that he will be leaving at the end of the season , end the uncertainty and leave with his dignity intact ?. Peter Grant knew when his time was up and is better thought of. -
[quote user="CANARYKING"]Their manager would be okay here.[/quote] Uwe Rosler, a name for the future and another chance we have missed. -
YES I know that he is one of Chris Hughton''s merry men, but would Goalkeeper coach Dave Watson have anything to offer?after all he is supposed to be good enough for England! -
Oh, but he is SUCH a nice Man ! I even believe that he will be Manager here for the new season, regardless of where we finish at the end of this season. City fans are now so fickle , that it will only take a positive result against Stoke and yesterday will be forgotten. -
Under the protection that being a Devils advocate gives me. May I suggest that we would be lucky to get Neil Lennon and I would be surprised if he even came here. It''s now or never. we wouldn''t be half as attractive if ( and when) we go down. -
Would it be any worse than it is now ? Who knows it could be better? One day someone is going to get the job and at least he would be easier to sack ! -
After all Ken achieved with Norwich, I always felt badly about the way he was treated at the end. He is a total gentleman and will always stop for a chat if you see him out. Why he hasn''t been created Club President I''ll never know. Happy Birthday Ken and thanks for everything. -
Swop anyone ? -
When it was revealed that the board did not fancy qualifying for the Europa League as it would cost more than it was worth. I wonder if secretly they have decided that it is not worth trying to remain a Premier league club?. We would slash the wage bill, the transfer fees would be lower, Parachute payments from Sky maybe even BT would help, Gate money would still flow in and a possible promotion campaign would be a hell of lot more attractive than a persistent battle against relegation ? -
No, because it would not be a surprise at all. We have had a bad record against Man City since the 60''s so a defeat is no shock.. -
Lennon would be a good choice simply because he is not likable and would be easier to sack !!!!! How about Tim Sherwood, according to the Sunday Mirror today, his position is already under threat with Louis Van Gaal being the heir apparent. -
This may have already been posted but for those of us who wanted to part with Calderwood and Trollope the easy way as the new managerial duo at Northampton, will find that Chris Wilder has been given the job.http://www.leaguemanagers.com/news/news-7350.html -
Some how or other even if we stay up this season do we keep Chris Hughton as manager and let him spend our budget for 2014-15 as he wants? -
I don''t suppose Chris Hughton''s selection policy and handling of Luc Becchio have helped at all. I wonder if CH actually attracts players at all, oh for the days when players were attracted to the club just because of the managers reputation. -
Yes, it would make everyone think that CH was a great manager again, rather like the result against West Brom at the tail end of last season. I really hate to say it, we need to lose and CH needs to depart. -
Well, that''s the way it appears to be doesn''t it. None of us know how well his signing will turn out, but it doesn''t seem to be the act of an ambitious and confident club that has faith in it''s managerial/ scouting staff anymore. -
This is a genuine question, What message is being sent out by signing Jonas Guttierrez on LOAN, JG does not trust us to be club he wants to sign for full time ? CH does not thinks he is worth signing Full time ? The board will not sign one of CH''s recommendations Full Time as it doesn''t trust him anymore ? The board does not think that CH will be next seasons manager but lacks the courage to get rid of him now ? -
Well, If he is now of Championship quality, he''ll be handy next season at the present rate. If used only as a sub, he might just pinch a few game winning goals and his qualities as a Captain should not be forgotten. -
[quote user="killiecanary"]Cannot stand him.Unpleasant cretin.Please not here! If we do replace Hughton please please let''s do better than this.[/quote]Unpleasant cretin = Easier to sack when the time is right. -
http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/malky-mackay-celtic-park-watch-6460286 I wonder whether Malky Mackay is slightly interested in becoming Celtic manager one day ?. or was this visit just a consolation ? -
We are told that players from abroad take time to settle down to our game. How about managers and coaches from abroad with the added bonus of not being able to speak the same language as the team ?. Are British managers so bad that we have to look abroad ? -
These are all the type of answers that I would have expected. We wouldn''t have him but the papers seem to be behind him, must be because of his connections with Arry'', the journalists'' friend. No none seems to be mentioning Chris Hughton at all ?
Hughton for one more year
