the bristol nest 0 Posted September 21, 2013 Monty wroteNo from me, he still has more games to prove himself and his team. I''m starting to wonder what he is going to have to do to turn this around though and get the supporters on side.Win a game? Play football ? Not be clueless on the pitch? Not be nervous and fragile at home? Not be lacking in any ambition away? I dunno... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twitchy 0 Posted September 21, 2013 Nice all round bloke with really good football knowledge, a coach, a great scout with an eye for a player but a number 2 for me, and for that reason I''m out.................so it''s a no from me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doctorsleep 0 Posted September 21, 2013 No. But he has to start changing the way we play and be more prepared to use the squad, he has many good players at his disposal now, he must use them effectively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,554 Posted September 21, 2013 No. Not out now. But today was worrying in two ways that point to a common problem with Hughton. The first is an perverse insistence in playing Elmander out of position. It was plain before today that formation of Elmander behind RvW wasn''t working, yet Hughton went with it again. It starts to look like a fear of dropping one or other or both out of two high-profile players.The second was that Snodgrass is apparently so little afraid of Hughton that he didn''t worry about the consequences of overruling him on who should take the penalty. Managers don''t have to be complete bastards but they should inspire a fair bit of fear in their players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the bristol nest 0 Posted September 21, 2013 Don''t sack him yet. He needs to learn very quickly how to manage a premier league club with ambition and stop throttling the life out of the team.so No for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRock 168 Posted September 21, 2013 No, not yet. but CH is on very thin ice. If the performances don''t pick up, he has to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dj11 377 Posted September 21, 2013 After the interview in which he was asked '' do you not have your penalty taker sorted before the game'' and he replied '' we don''t get many penalties'' I have to say go. There is no leadership and that is obviously feeding through to the players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bury Yellow 2 Posted September 21, 2013 I can understand the argument to give him a full 10 games but its got to be Yes from me with the proviso that the dynamic duo of Calderwood and Trollope go with him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland Canary 76 Posted September 21, 2013 That really is depressing Bury. I hadn''t even considered the possibility that the ''dynamic duo'' would not be on their way as well. Now you''ve got me worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bury Yellow 2 Posted September 21, 2013 Absolutely Highland. I know I have banged on before about those two. Cast a look at their cv''s - scary. Mind you I am not so sure Hoots comes out of that all that well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeattleCanary 0 Posted September 22, 2013 YES. No signs of change. 10 games is too much. Many suggest we won''t get points from the bigger teams coming up, and only Cardiff will realistically give us a hope of points. So we could use the up coming games to get a replacement getting his playing style into the team ethos, and hope for a fluke result of the honeymoon period and push on. 10 games is a quarter of the season, and would see us trailing.I''d say no if he''d been unlucky or there were signs of promise but there are none. Sunderland and us are the whipping boys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YellowBlood 0 Posted September 22, 2013 Yes. He''s stuck with the same approach to the way we play since January and we have won 5 games in the league since. He did well to keep us up last season but that owed a lot to an incredibly fortunate 10 game unbeaten run. We''re in a results business and we haven''t won enough games since mid December last year. 5 wins in 26 isn''t good enough at any level so it''s Hughton out from me.

The Walking Man 13 Posted September 22, 2013 I originally said give him 10 games but the team has shown absolutely zero signs of improving this season despite the big Summer outlay, so my brain is now asking why waste another 3/5 games on him? I would sack him now on the proviso that we have somebody lined up straight away. There''s no point a caretaker being in charge for 4/5 games whilst we mess about trying to find a new manager. To those saying we''d be a laughing stock if we sacked our manage now, i''d rather be a laughing stock now than be relegated at the end of the season, because that is where we are headed under Hughton. Take the blinkers off folks out form for the last 9 months has been shocking!So it''s a yes from me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted September 22, 2013 QPR wasn''t a laughing stock for firing their manager last season, although they did become on when the great Wizard was exposed for the club-wrecking fraud he is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
