*OFFICIAL* HUGHTON SACKED

[Guest BlacknWhiteArmy]

Chris always seemed the guy to keep the dressing room together, I don't understand how he'd lose it

[B-more Mag]

Oh, hey relegation . . . didn't think I'd see you so soon.

[Dokko]

If only Darren Bent didn't score that consolation...5-1 just wasn't enough for Ashley.

 

 

[Dave]

Aye, it seems as though he'd lost the dressing room. Would explain the sudden downturn in performances, even the decent result against Chelsea seemed to lack the spark of the Sunderland and Arsenal games.

 

Does it? What's the source on that?

[Guest Chubby Jason]

Pardew has experience getting relegated and is a total prick. Seems like an ideal Ashley appointment.

[oldtype]

To be fair to Ashley, Pardew has plenty of experience at failure.

[Gaz]

After yesterdays match I honestly was wondering where our next win would come and thought that by end of December we would be near bottom 3.

 

He deserved a chance to turn it around though and if have no decent manager lined up cant see the point!

[Kanji]

Oh lord, not this again.

[KaKa]

Wow ... guess it all depends on who comes in next. Feel terrible for Chris. I love the guy. If we really do get a more experienced manager who demands some new players in January then it might work out. Let's see. God bless you Chris, at least you can leave with your head held high.

[Yorkie]

Aye, it seems as though he'd lost the dressing room. Would explain the sudden downturn in performances, even the decent result against Chelsea seemed to lack the spark of the Sunderland and Arsenal games.

 

Does it? What's the source on that?

 

I really hope it's not actually true, but the absolutely gutless last two away performances would arguably suggest that he had.

[midds]

Pardew obviously rates Williamson and Ranger though.

[BlueStar]

Alan Pardew 'strongly interested' in becoming next Newcastle manager

[Wallace]

I think they know exactly who is coming in because why would they get rid of Paul Barron as well.  Whoever is coming in obviously wants to bring in all their own people.

 

I am sure it will be someone out of work because I cannot imagine Ashley paying any compo and I cannot get enthusiastic about any of the names suggested such as Pardew, Curbishley etc.  I cannot imagine that managers of those ilk will succeed here.

 

I expect Llambias will start to feed some snippets to his chums in the media to damage Hughton's reputation.

 

 

 

[KaKa]

By the way, can I also just say that I blame Shola Ameobi for this completely.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

After yesterdays match I honestly was wondering where our next win would come and thought that by end of December we would be near bottom 3.

 

 

But we've proved we can get results in this division. With a week's training we might have easily got a result at Liverpool.

 

There's no on-pitch reason to explain this sacking.

 

 

[Guest zeta87]

It's like we are trying ever so hard to fuck ourselves up.

[Ameritoon]

I think people just want to believe he lost the dressing room, in hopes this sacking was reasonable.

[Guest ObiChrisKenobi]

Hell yeah, can't wait for the Championship again.  :celb:

[thewellander]

I can't think of another club whose owner treats managers with such contempt as Mike Ashley. It's disgraceful.

[Dave]

Aye, it seems as though he'd lost the dressing room. Would explain the sudden downturn in performances, even the decent result against Chelsea seemed to lack the spark of the Sunderland and Arsenal games.

 

Does it? What's the source on that?

 

I really hope it's not actually true, but the absolutely gutless last two away performances would arguably suggest that he had.

 

So the instant a club starts losing games it's fair to suggest the manager has lost the dressing room and therefore needs replacing sharpish? Do me a favour.

 

I note Stu has failed to criticise this decision one bit btw, despite being all over others having a go at Hughton and the players like a rash in previous weeks.

[Guest ObiChrisKenobi]

Real Madrid.

[ScottishMagpie]

Aye, it seems as though he'd lost the dressing room. Would explain the sudden downturn in performances, even the decent result against Chelsea seemed to lack the spark of the Sunderland and Arsenal games.

 

Wonder what he did that was that earthshattering to lose it in such a short space of time?  Was it CH that torched AC's car?

[colinmk]

Aye, it seems as though he'd lost the dressing room. Would explain the sudden downturn in performances, even the decent result against Chelsea seemed to lack the spark of the Sunderland and Arsenal games.

Complete and utter shite imo.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Been thinking this through, and the most logical explanation is that it's some sort of horrible dream.

[Neil]
