The Managerial Merry Go Round™ - Van Nistelrooy to Leicester

[Robster]

Nice guy but not good enough to be a Premier League manager and football is a results business

It isn't at NUFC

[Klaus]

Why sack a manager this late in the season when they still have something to play for? Not enough time for somebody else to be appointed and make any real changes to the team imo.

Love Hughton 

 

Whatever happens he will always go down as one of the best men to have ever managed us in terms of integrity, morals, decency etc. and do you know what, he did a fucking great job as our manager all things considered. In his first ever gig as a manager he took us up and consolidated us, delivering some memorable results along the way. 6-1 Villa, mackems 5-1, beating Arsenal away.

 

Made myself, and I suspect many others, proud to be an NUFC fan again after the unspeakable actions of the previous season.

 

He's not the best manager but he'll certainly go down in the annals of time as doing a fine job for us. Not too mention delivering one of the best afternoon's I'll ever have.

[Dave]

Gutted for him but it's the right choice from Norwich's point of view.

 

Not sure who they might get in; take a risk on an inexperienced young 'figurehead' or go for a shitty Dowie sort to get those four points they probably need? Short term vs long term.

FA Youth Cup-winning coach Neil Adams has been appointed as First Team Manager.

[midds]

Know a Norwich fan who's been whinging about him for months. It's certainly been building for a while down there and the Fulham game is their last chance of points this season, win it and they're safe, lose it and they're down.

That's the thing, say what you like about his managerial ability, but you felt you could trust him with our club. Top bloke.

[colinmk]

Hope they go back down the leagues now, he did wonders with them last season. Small club with a superiority complex.

[Pilko]

I remember Hughton's time with us very fondly, and I have a huge amount of respect for what he did at NUFC; that doesn't mean I think he deserved to keep this particular job. He spent a lot of money on a lot of shite and hasn't progressed the team in his time there whatsoever.

 

The Gutierrez loan was the move of someone a bit desperate, really. When most PL managers know they're up against it, they always tend to go for experienced hardworking sorts to get them through the rough patches.

 

I'm gutted for him on a personal level, and really hope he gets himself another job for next season. I could see him maybe taking the Fulham job if they go down and bin off Magath as expected.

 

[Guest bimpy474]

Good manager or not, he did well by us and that's what I'll always remember.

 

 

Yep. Usual tossers will be in soon enough to slag him off though.

 

Aye, fucking retarded, he's a fantastic bloke in my eyes, not only for what he did for us but a proper gentleman too.

[Beren]

Barring this weekend's game, its the type of game he's somehow managed to pull out of the bag all season. Daft timing IMO, they missed their window to make it a meaningful decision (as far as this season goes) a while ago.

 

Can't stand their fans. Think they have Ipswich Town's history.

[Incognito]

I'd have Chrissy as a manager over Mildew any day of the week. Streets ahead of him as a person too.

[Dave]

the recent run of four defeats in our last six Premier League games and six consecutive away league defeats, left the Club with no choice but to act

[Guest bimpy474]

Fuck me, we hardly ever draw, win or getting bummed in the bum.

[Disco]

Didn't beat us by at least two, understandable to bin him off.

[WarrenBartonCentrePartin]

Took charge of the club when it was on its knees.  Can't help but love the guy.

[midds]

I'll never have any beef with Hughton for his time here, lovely, honest, committed bloke who gave his all and it was much appreciated.

 

Deserves success but can't see another PL team giving him a job sadly.

[Ronaldo]

Great bloke but they should've sacked him at least 4 months ago. He's a terrible manager.

 

Looking at it from a different perspective, the Norwich fans wanted him out and were vocal about it. Our fans used to be like that.

Think he'll get a Championship club up again, if given the chance.

[Ryan]

Can we get him back for the last 5 games and get someone new in the summer?

[Guest Howaythetoon]

I don't give a fuck what he has done at other clubs. He was immense for us. 3rd only to KK and Sir Bobby for me as wor manager. Just like those two he was a man of integrity, a man of principle. He was something good and for a brief spell under him we were the kind of club I was proud to support even if we weren't pulling up any trees. Following us under him felt good and right and I always looked forward to the games because I knew we would always try and get a win or at least not lose and we would do so in the right manner, i.e. in a way that best utilised the players we had at our disposal. We had the entertainers, but 'this group of lads' is just as pivotal in our recent history. Without it we would probably be still down there hosting Yeovil. A place we are heading to by the way with this fucking fraud in the dugout alongside the other frauds in Carver, Stone and of course Ashley and co.

[Disco]

Bottom 8 have all sacked their manager this season. Shows how overly important the PL coin is these days.

Great post, how any can say he was shit when he was here is beyond me.

Yet when Keegan walked on principle, Hughton, who knew exactly what the hell was going on at the club, jumped in his grave quicker than anyone.

As caretaker manager, and why wouldn't he? It's not like he was angling for the job, just a decent bloke doing the best he could to keep things going.

Aye right.
