Segun Oluwaniyi Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I can't tell if your point about Hodgson is you giving your backing to Pardew/Hughton? The Hughton is slightly different, as I'm not sure the results we had were worthy of him being released from contract. The Arsenal and Sunderland results were still sharp in the mind, despite a frankly embarrassing display against the aforementioned Albion. I did dislike the the anger and emotion involved in the ordeal from the players especially. Results were average with him and have continued in a similar vein since Pardew took power. It stands up alright as a business decision, imo, even if there were (unconfirmed. You never actually know anything at this club) reports of other factors influencing it. Generally though, my point had little to do with NUFC at all. Media, supporters, and most people with knowledge of football were lambasting the West Bromwich authorities for dismissing RDM, despite the results supporting the decision. He did a good job in the CCC, and took the club forward, but his time came to a necessary end as soon as he took the club to a barrier it could not pass. West Brom made a logical and correct decision, regardless of what the general sentiments will say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest magpie99 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hodgson's vast amount of experience in situations WBA found themselves in at the time has proven the directors made the right decision. I thought WBA were too gung ho at times and needed to tighten up. Hodgson seems to have achieved this and they are still entertaining to watch. After the way he was treated at Liverpool, I was delighted for him when he beat that back stabbing little scottish wanker last week. I am also pleased they will stay up and hope that Blackpool do was well. I like the football they play even if it has been their undoing at times and the league need characters like Holloway. As for Hughton, despite some good results, the writing was on the wall after those mediocre diisplays at Bolton and WBA plus the fact we were generally crap at home, Experience was prob ably needed at the club, much in the same way Hodgson was brought in at WBA but we missed our chance by appointing Pardew when we could possibly have got someone like Jol.

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I doubt Blackburn will be wanting to buy Santa Cruz off Man City as he hasn't done much on loan to them. There's another huge loss for Man City because of a Hughes purchase. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hughes is also a massive dicksplash with a huge chip on his shoulder. That certainly counts against him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh Man city couldnt give a shit with the money they have spent prior to the new rules as there wealthy owners just write it off but next season will see the difference .
