Mick Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Didn't want to add it for what Pilko said (i.e it'll get the most votes) but have added it anyway. I went for it, I couldn't go for either of the other two because I like him and he hasn't lost me yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Unsure yet for me. He's got a big few weeks ahead of him and if results don't go well, then the pressure will really be on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 What about playing R Taylor on RM for the next match? We've established he can't defend, but we miss his delivery. At least playing him in midfield would solve this. Must be better than playing Guthrie there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Physioroom has S. Taylor back for 31st Oct. If it means match fit, he should start at RB (not that Hughton will even consider this). Just spoke to a mackem mate who says they tend to play Malbranque on the left. If he's up for it he'll fucking run rings around Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Surely being unsure about someone is the very definition of not having faith in them... Went for yes. Stand strong and all that. Too much good to just ignore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but that's kind of it - an attitude thing. Rare that anything's certain so you have to push yourself to be decisive on a call... You say he hasn't lost you yet so going on that I'd guess you ought to be in the yes camp. I've have concerns sometimes too, obviously, but you just have to swallow them until you're convinced someone must go because having doubts obviously hanging around only makes things worse if anything. Self-fulfilling prophecies, kind of thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 This may sound petty and stupid, but it all hinges on the teamsheet next week for me. If Perch is out (through tactics rather than injury) then I'm willing to give him a little while longer. If he, and Nolan, play, then he's lost my confidence completely, regardless of the result.

merlin Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 The answer to this question is another question; 'Do you believe that Hughton would be manager if another owner had taken over when Ashley put the club on the market?' Yes or No..? I believe the answer would be NO, but with the current ownership, Hughton is about as good as the club will get because nobody with a better record would work for Ashley'Llambias.

Guest BooBoo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Blew it big style yesterday in what was a must win game. Shuttling Guthrie out wide, where he was useless even in the Championship and selecting Lovenkrands ahead of Shola was lousy. The point got him out of jail to an extent but it was another bad day at the office for Hughton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I've been trying to keep the faith, but too many times he has demonstrated an unwillingness to change things when they clearly weren't working. Either he can't see they're not working or he doesn't have the courage to change things, both those answers are disturbing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 The results and performances are starting to look like us when we went down. Not all hughton's fault but ultimately he carries the can as manager. Better managers than him have been binned and I wouldn't be at all surprised if ashley sacked him before xmas.

Yorkie Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Don't think he did a great deal wrong yesterday, but it was a pretty uninspiring performance from him on the whole. I'm losing confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 He got it wrong in selecting Lovenkrands and playing a central midfielder out wide where he has proven even at a lower level to be ineffective. He should have made changes at half time too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I could see the thinking behind it though. Routledge needed a reminder that he can't just waltz into the team every week - he deserved to be dropped. Guthrie was the only real option, maybe Ryan Taylor. Lovenkrands and Carroll was the main partnership last season. He rectified it by bringing Shola on in good time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 While I get frustrated with his team make up most weeks - Guthrie has rarely looked interested in playing wide, and he hasn't got the pace to do it anyway - Hughton still seems like a fairly intelligent bloke and I reckon will go on to be one of the better managers in English football. We just need to get through this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovenkrands and Carroll was the main partnership last season. He rectified it by bringing Shola on in good time. Problem is that neither Lovenkrands OR Routledge are PL players - Routledge has been moved on from at least 2 PL clubs and as for Loven...he's never even played for one apart from NUFC, and he's HOW old..? Face the facts - we have a squad of players in which the majority are CCC standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 People called for super striker Lovenkrands to get his chance in the PL, Hughton leaves him out, he's not giving him a chance, Hughton plays him, he picked the wrong team. Mental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
