All the best Hughes you've handled yourself superbly. Complete lack of class from the board the way they went about this.

Re: Hughes Statement
I'm with you mate, however should have been last December when we lost to WBA and slipped into bottom 3.
Excited about Jan now, no more Upson, Parker and Bentley, maybe we will see some class players.

The saddest thing of all was it never happened last May....
But hey ho, we live and learn..so, get used to the idea, accept the new man and FFS move on.

No doubt he tells us how brilliantly he was doing.

So I think our new owner also have improved the sacking departure..
Brought a tear to my eye that did. Only because it was my wedding tune as the blushing bride was took up the aisle!
Hehe, excellent wedding tune!

In terms of how Mark Hughes was sacked it was appalling, and whether you were an 'inner' or an 'outer' surely you can see that?
Only the other week Garry Cook was being metaphorically run out of town for his latest faux pas; now he's being lauded by some for his part in Hughes' sacking despite his obvious duplicity in this latest sordid affair at what used to be our football club. Still, at least Mancini knows what he is dealing with now.
The club has been aspiring to and, in some areas at least, achieving professionalism in certain areas in recent years and yet it now has to resort to rank amateurism of the sort we were so used to seeing in the past, setting us back years to the days of Peter Reid and Frank Clark (although I may stand corrected on this) who heard on the radio he'd been fired. And didn't Howard Kendall take Peter Swales to one side on his appointment to tell him that if he wanted to run a big club he had to think like he was running a big club, pointing to the 'Sandwiches sponsored by Brother' label on the half-time refreshments? More latterly, of course, there was Sven under another regime, but at least we've now achieved some kind of consistency in one area at least.
There's a right way and a wrong way to do everything and in my opinion City have done this in the worst possible way and only someone with a heart of stone wouldn't feel a twinge of sympathy for Hughes even if he'll never have to work again. Perhaps you don't agree but the vipers' nest that is the press certainly seem to think so today, despite their obvious - but now instantly forgotten- hypocrisy. After all, haven't they been predicting and advocating Hughes' exit for months?

and i'm ashamed you call yourself a blue. mark hughes can sit on his arse for the next three years as a reward for doing a very average job.
