The College Dropout Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Thought he did a good job here, B'ham and in his first season at Norwich. But he hasn't kicked on and they look terrible. IMO he's still learning as a manager but he'll have to drop back in the championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 They'll win a few more games this season unfortunately. They won't be far away obviously but I can see them reeling in Palace and Norwich, maybe even West Brom too. I've already relegated Fulham and Cardiff. Unfortunately they have a few games to come against those teams around them which will see them safe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 It's his personality that'll always hold him back as a manager. I don't know too many people who could drastically change at that point in life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Fair enough, you can be a nice guy manager but you must be at least competant tactically. Hughton doesnt even have that. Would go for a drink with him though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I wouldn't say they have improved their forward line massively. Like I mentioned last week, can only be Hughton's fault. A fair amount has been spent on Becchio, Hooper, van Wolfswinkel & Elmander. Do we know that they were Hughton's choices? Not many boards these days allow the manager to spend big money, especially those who have been sacked from two previous skinflint clubs like Newcastle and Birmingham.

I'll pretend you haven't spent the last 18 months (rightly, mostly) accusing Pardew of not getting the best out of each player in the squad while failing to answer the same question. For a start, I'd stop trying to contain even the poorest sides first and grab the odd goal second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And while I can't say with 100% certainty that there is no DOF or board doing the buying at Norwich, I've never seen any evidence to suggest that its the case.
