Warren Hill 0 Posted January 3, 2014 ...so who is it that is keeping him in a job?It has come to light on another thread via fan of the year Matt Juler that Mike Wynn-Jones made it quite clear that he wanted Hughton "well gone". I don''t know if Matt or any of the other Capital Canaries can expand further on this but with MWJ firmly in the "out" camp, is he alone on the board with this stream of thought or are the divisions as wide in the boardroom as they are on this message board?If only we had a supporters group in Norwich as the Capitals seem to have an ear in the boardroom.

FenwayFrank 2,459 Posted January 3, 2014 I somehow doubt MWJ will be speaking to Matt Juler again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted January 3, 2014 I have read claims on other forums from people ''in the know'' that the board have been split on Hughton for some time now. I would imagine Mcnall and Bowkett pro and the rest out would be my guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

......and Smith must score. 1,341 Posted January 3, 2014 I find it hard to believe that MJW would have said so publicly or if he did that Matt Juler would''ve said so publicly either.Didn''t happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Warren Hill 0 Posted January 3, 2014 Do you have faith in Hughton to keep us up? Thread.Following a chat I had with MWJ''s back in April of last year, I''m fairly certain that if he had his say Hughton would have been well gone by then, let alone now!Is what Matt Juler said.

Matt Juler 148 Posted January 3, 2014 Blimey, a drive home from work and a game of chinese whispers has been going on!To clarify, at an event due to Delia''s media work I bumped into MWJ at the pre-event drinks. Myself and my wife were talking to him about the excellent result the previous night for the youth team against Chelsea. MWJ''s response was along the lines of "it was great to see some attacking football at Carrow Road for a change". He at no point made reference to Hughton, however I interpreted this as implying he was not happy with the style of play we were seeing in our first team games.I''m not trying to imply that I have inside knowledge of the views of MWJ or Delia on the current regime, I merely replied to a thread suggesting that MWJ is possibly not the person making the decisions based on my personal anecdotal evidence.

nutty nigel 7,528 Posted January 3, 2014 This sort of tripe spoils the forum GPele. There''s a whole range of opinions on here. That''s a good thing. But then people have to make things up to try and back up their POV. And when it''s deliberately mis-quoting the club''s owners that can be harmful. Weve been there before when it was Delia being discredited. Archant wouldn''t get away with doing it. Let''s see if they contact the fan of the year and run the story...

CambridgeCanary 0 Posted January 3, 2014 [quote user="Thorpe end canary"]To be honest he is only saying what everyone else is saying the difference being he can do something about it![/quote]That''s the point isn''t it?Even if the fan of the year who doesn''t go to games anymore has quoted MWJ correctly, it does not follow that MWJ is being critical. As was pointed out, the fair weather fan of the year is mind reading. Perhaps MWJ thinks the same as me that it would be nice to have more attacking football for a change but very risky and not very practical. If I think that without having a multimillion fortune riding on the success of the season then, it''s perfectly possible he feels the same.The assumption even on the quote that this is critical of Hughton is a stretch. It is far from the only possible interpretation but the only one that suits the agenda of the leaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
