Anyone have Hughton's total WLD stats starting with the Championship season opener?

 

On his wikipedia page as being:

P70, W37, L14, D17, 55.7%

 

Wonder if that includes his care taking during the JFK fiasco.

 

Either way, that's a fucking good record and no reason to be sacked.  He was everything we needed this season and now it's all up in smoke because Ashley is a egomaniac.

You managed to see the Everton game? I went to just about every f***ing bar in the south of Florida to find it. Couldn't.

 

What?  :lol: That was the main game on FSC that day.

 

Wasn't on in a single pub. No football whatsoever.

If I was to play Ronaldo-Advocate for a minute: If you only showed Premier League stats, what would it say...

Nah that's just from June 2009 onwards.

Don't tell me you're taking Ronaldo's take on this seriously?

 

That he wasn't the answer long term? Most will agree. Maybe not today, but eventually.

 

That our results on the pitch in his one and a half season in charge somehow merited him being sacked by these classless clueless bastards in charge of our club..

 

See, where did I say the sacking was merited? I've said countless times that it was premature, but understandable to a degree.

 

Same difference..

 

Only if you're simple.

Crazy. Must be Florida, never been stuck there trying to find game.

Might've been on too early for the pubs, who knows.  We're not the best nation for trying to catch football in a pub but a lot of pubs actually do try.  I've found a few that will open up when the first match starts, but they usually can't sell booze until like 11 or so depending on which state/county it's in.

Not good reading whatsoever, just goes to show that Ashley and Llambias definitely didn't learn from the Keegan saga what with the apparent constant interference.

 

"Knowledgeable football fans" - f*** off

Took 15 minutes of convincing for Paddy Murphy's in Naples to put the Croatia - England (Walcott) game on in Sep 08, the locals didn't have a clue what was going on.

This is what you said: "Hughton's had 16 games, man. He's looked up to it in about 4. We can't afford to continue to piss away points."

 

Are you or are you not suggesting Hughton was not "up to it" for about 12 of our 16 Premiership games he was in charge off? Most of our supporters would agree that considering the circumstances (newly promoted, shit squad) we have looked up for it for the vast majority of our matches, only really underperforming in a hand full of matches at the most. Not sure what you would expect from another manager with this squad tbh. I can safely say not many managers would have done better than Chris in the time he's been in charge, and there are certainly not many who would have even accepted the challenge with the buffoons in charge. Chris deserves nothing but credit for what he's done for us, simple as that.

For some reason I can't help but think Mike Ashley will be caught up in a big betting scheme where he's been trying to fix results and events in football.  :facepalm: Like the only reason he bought the Toon was to get a foot into football so he could have some influence.

 

Putting money on Keegan becoming manager, and then Kinnear, when their odds were stupid.

What the hell were you doing in Naples?  Can your skin even handle that area of the world? :)

I go to Naples every summer, love it. Easily my favourite place on earth. My skin loves it, too.

 

Yeah I really enjoy the area to really just chill out, because there's not much more you can do tbh.  It's the perfect beach+drink+book kind of place.

Food, man. The restaurants on 5th are incredible. The beach is f***ing heavenly. I'm taking the lass back in either February and March. Probably venture up to your neck of the woods at some point, too.

Naples is a shithole, IMO.

 

A nice shithole, but a shithole none the less.

 

What does that even mean?

 

I enjoyed the place, nice people and culture.

 

However the city itself is a bit minging.

 

You're thinking of the hellhole in Italy, surely?
