Memphis Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Despite all the previous rumours, this is the first time I've actually felt like Hughton's sacking could happen. Hope it doesn't, but it feels a bit ominous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnypd Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 i'm not hughton's biggest fan, but looking at the situation pragmatically i'd give him a contract for a couple of years. first of all we're not going to get anyone significantly better. if hughton goes it is yet another sign that Ashley is trigger happy, unpredictable and ungrateful and few managers will want to work for him. and as we saw last time, when ashley refused to give Venables a medium term contract, we'd be left with another JFK. Secondly i reckon Hughton needs the extra credibility and authority that being tenured would bring him, especially if rumours of training ground indiscipline are true. no other manager in the league is having to come out and say that senior players dont pick the side - it's a sign a weakness that hughton has to come out and say this in the first place. and furthermore a contract would enable him to confidently go out and sign the backroom staff and new players that we need - assistants, or fitness coaches, or star strikers, are going to think twice about coming here if hughton's always a couple of weeks from leaving. and fuck, even if we do go down, hughton now has experience of that particular situation. i'm not saying he's the one to lead us to glory and should be given a 5 year contract, as for me there's still doubts as to his overall ability. but for the short to medium term we have to stick with him as there's no other option.

colinmk Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Would be absolutely farcical if Ashley didn't renew Hughton's contract after everything that has happened. The club needs stability right now and Hughton has laid the foundation and is on course to achieving that. I'm not too worried because I believe this is all media nonsense as usual and I just cannot accept that Ashley would make yet another catastrophic mistake because no-one could be that stupid.

Benwell Lad Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Not really wishing to add to the silliness but I'd rather have Pardew than O'Neill. To take it to a totally insane level some macums are concerned that we may be lining up Bruce. One Chrissy Hughton, one Chrissy Hughton.....................................

Colocho Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Got a bad feeling we'll end up with one or two points from the next four games and Hughton will be shown the door in the new year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
