canaryman 0 Posted September 22, 2013 Heard this from an unnamed source but big within the club. He has only 8 weeks left at the club before he is sacked regardless of results. Opinions on this and possible replacement?I think personally maybe poach Di Canio from sunderland or brucey!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crabbycanary 2 Posted September 22, 2013 What a load of tosh! Why give someone 8 weeks no matter what happens in between. Ridiculous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted September 22, 2013 ....regardless of results? That sounds rather bizarre.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warren Hill 0 Posted September 22, 2013 I''ve heard this too.He''s basically been given 8 weeks notice because he''s a nice bloke. That should give him and his family time to work out what they want to do next and gives Chrissy some time to tout around for another job. Although he''ll be "on the bench" matchdays, team affairs are going to be looked after by a committee of senior players, Russell Martin, Seb Bassong and Robert Snodgrass are the three names I was told. Big Ron Atkinson lined up as a replacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablofarmer 0 Posted September 22, 2013 Di Canio is poison, no thanks.Bruce, nothing against him, but think we need better. Martin O''Neil will be a name banged around, but again it''s a no from me, think he needs some time out and needs to fall in love with the game againPoyet would be an option, but like Di Canio can be a bit of a firework.One name suggested which is a bit out of the blue but could be good is Fergies old number 2 Rene Muelensteen. That is about all my know how, open to what others have to say Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

budgiebird 0 Posted September 22, 2013 That is the most ridiculous thing I have heard in a long time!What if, by some miracle, we win 6 out of the next 8 games and are in the top 4. Sacking him then would make us a laughing stock.The flip-side is that we seriously run the risk of losing every single game over the next eight weeks as the morale of the players having to play under a "dead man walking" would be rock bottom.

Green and Yellow fellow 0 Posted September 22, 2013 What''s wrong with 4 weeks? Or 1 week? There''s no room for sentiment in Business, If we loose every game in those 8 weeks (unlikely but still) and we are sitting bottom of the prem, then that has to be one of the worst decisions ever made by a club, just because ''Hughtons a nice guy'' Sounds like utter tosh to me. Football isn''t just a game anymore it''s a business, I''d very much doubt McNally would consider that. But I shant dismiss your OP completely just incase..

ricardo 7,395 Posted September 22, 2013 Why are people stupid enough to believe this rubbish. If there was ever any conversation between McNally and Hughton on the subject nobody else would know anything about it.You can ask the question at the Forum on Oct 8th, but don''t blame me if you get laughed out of the room.
