samptime29 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Most new managers get improved results (apart from Pardew at West Brom) in the short term. The players usually try to impress the new boss. Southampton appointing Hughes to the end of the season is a low risk for them considering their fans considered the club certain for relegation. If Hughes doesn't improve them and they get relegated they'll not keep him. If Hughes keeps them up they still don't have to award him a longer contract if they think they can get a better manager in the Summer. Fair point. I'm sure Hughes will get a nice bonus if he keeps them up aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Just realised Hughes could potentially be responsible for two relegations this season, Stoke and Southampton. That along with WBA would be nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southampton will be fine now, he usually does ok at the start of his time with a club, it's when he beds in a people see him for what he is that it all comes unstuck, just like Pardew, maybe like Pardew though this is one too many times on the same journey.

Optimistic Nut Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Always wonder where clubs who lose the Play-Offs would have turned out. Like had Hartlepool held on against Sheff Wed to reach the Championship, Gateshead if they'd made the Football League a few years ago when crowds were on the up...

Hartlepool would have went straight back down. Gateshead would be a mid table League 2 side at best, possibly the smallest team in the league.

In his two jobs he had Derby in the play-off places and got sacked due to his style of football, and kept Swansea up last season despite being in a shit position when he took over after the marvelous job Bob Bradley did, admittedly he was a bit naff this season, but there is enough there to show hes a decent manager.

Just because Bradley deserved to get sacked doesn’t make Clement any less shit. There’s no chip on my shoulder, Clement is shit - has done shit, and will be shot for Reading.
