such is the level of speculation swirling around his future that the pitch for this article was met with a thumbs up, “if you think you can get it written before he’s sacked”

 

LOL.

Can we make a list of managers who WOULD take the job on a temporary contract? ie until end of the season, with or without bonus ...

 

Strachan?

who else?

 

I'd be more than happy to put my services forward, but I'm currently employeed and I don't think they'd want to pay me off.

Moyes & Carlos Carvalhal both did previously, I believe.

Someone has just wiped out ALL of the money available to back Hughes as next manager to go on Betfair - including the stuff at 1/10.....

 

about £25 worth...

 

and now backable at 1/4

This thread should be renamed Fantasy Football World. Hughes is going nowhere. Get behind the team and SUPPORT IT!

 

Yeah keep chucking all your money at it and watch it get peed away.

Barring a miracle turn around I think Hughes is already sacked I just get the feeling that they want the new director of football or whatever in place to then oversee the new manager appointment.

 

Is much going to be gained from an inexperienced caretaker, especially considering the tough games. Even if we were in good form and mid table, aside maybe getting something from an out of fom Man Utd side, we wouldn't expect anything against SPurs away or unlikely against a much improved Arsenal at home.

 

The only realistic chance for points is Cardiff away from the next 4, maybe a surprise point in either of the home games.

 

Get the new DOF in to start the new era and allow him to shape the rest of the back room staff in his vision and get a new manager in ready for the january window. Back the manager with at least one decent signing (though I think that is unlikely)

 

Did West Bromwich gain much by replacing Pardew with caretaker Darren Moore?

All I wanted for my birthday was to wake up and find out that Hughes had been sacked. Ahh, well. :-/

 

Happy Birthday! It's my birthday tomorrow.... fingers crossed!!

heard a little Rumor Hughes going today. Anyone else heard anything? God i hope its true.

 

Haven't heard today but it's definitely a rumour going round that he's leaving as i was told that fulham was going to be his last game if we lost. Also he's definitely lost the dressing room and a section of players openly want him sacked.

Is there any manager a section of players don't want sacked? I'd imagine Romeu thinks Hughes is a massive **** yet by all accounts he loved Puel.

 

I'm guessing the players opinion of a manger is coloured by how much game time they get.

Exactly. We were led to believe lots of players wanted Koeman gone. Then Puel. Then Pellegrino. Now Hughes.

 

The same under performing players.

Some players will always fall out with managers, it's pretty rare they'll openly talk about losing games to get him sacked though.

There was a whole article about Tadic, JWP and others saying he’d wrecked their confidence

 

Tadic, the player Koeman wanted more than any other. Utter bants.

 

JWP isn't a good footballer, so wouldnt worry there.

The only reason a handful didn't get on with koeman is because he was a hard task masker and didn't take any *hit

Mane got upset cause he was dropped for being late to 2 team meetings and late for training on numerous occasions

Is this happening currently?

On the telly is the win % for Saints manager pre the Man U game...minimum of 20 PL games as a Saints manager...

 

Merrington 23.7%

Adkins 22.7%

Redknapp 18.2%

Pellegrino 16.7%

Hughes 14.3%

Hughes clearly will stay until at least the Cardiff game now.

 

Good performances at Fulham and today. Its clear what the biggest problem is, and any manager will have to work with a poor pool of centre backs.

A stoke friend of mine said that we would struggle for the first 12-13 games but from there you’d see an upturn in performances once the players get used to his tactics. Happens every season under Hughes.

 

And in reality, we’re playing better of late but the results aren’t there yet (god, I sound alike Hughes there)

His tactics including picking the wrong players for those 13 games. And not coaching them. Or doing anything during games.

That’s the one.

Not sure if my mates winding me up, he has connections at the club, but has said Hughes has been sacked.
Two games to save his job, no wins in those two games. So possible bit still feels a long way off.

Probably not happening he said. Stand down everyone.

Second time to throw 2 goals away against sides that were poor. Man U were abysmal today.

 

They are crap aren’t they.

No chance will Mourinho be there next season. Look at the state of their side

Possibly not connected, but drive past the ground at about 11am today and Prowsey, Austin and I think Vestergaard we’re heading in via staff entrance. Can only presume players meeting of some sort. Possibly with board?

Hopefully those 3 are being summoned in and told to find other clubs. 3 bang average players there.
