Re: not long left for hughes
A thread about the imminent sacking of Mark Hughes and you somehow manage to crowbar a swipe at Garry Cook into it.
Do you have opinions on any other subjects?
peoffrey said:Hiddink announced he'd been approached, Hughes went to Cook and said back me or sack me and the rest is history. To be honest, I always felt Cook was trying to curry favour with the fans he upset after he welcomed Uwe Rosler to the Manchester United Hall of Fame at a Supporters Do. So glad that odious swine left afterwards and was so well replaced by Ferran Soriano.

Re: not long left for hughes
I just strongly feel it was a PR disaster that could've been avoided had we done things correctly and dismissed Hughes once the decision to replace him was made. People insisted it was because City had money or just the press siding with a British Manager - but there's a way to do it. Forcing him to take charge of the team against Sunderland was wrong.
Like Mancini, Soriano has a good track record in football developed at one of the very, very best Clubs. This is surely a better option to lead City than a gaffe prone man who wanted to be everyone's Mate?

Look whos talking last, us! Mancini proved to be a success, Hughes proved to be worthless
Who cares what other thought? they just waited for city to do the smallest of side steps.peoffrey said:gordondaviesmoustache said:peoffrey said:Hiddink announced he'd been approached, Hughes went to Cook and said back me or sack me and the rest is history.

Re: not long left for hughes
I've heard this before, and if true it's fairly ridiculous. Did Winter genuinely believe that he was entitled to know what the board planned before anyone else? His behaviour at Mancini's first press conference was childish and petty, and I hope he's suitably embarrassed about it now.

I don't have the stats to hand, but I'm fairly sure that's just bullshit peddled by Hughes himself. Even if there is any truth to it, it's presumably because his sides start so monumentally badly that improvement in the second half of the season is pretty much inevitable.
Bluemoon115 said:Pretty sure there was a reason behind Winter being so bitter, hadn't we told him the week before that Hughes was 100% staying, so he didn't run the the Hughes getting sacked story when everyone else was or something?
Anyway, Winter seems to be one of the few reasonable voices around now (and has been for a while), so there must be some reason for his change of heart.

He will be sacked after bending over for his old boss with at least 7-0 spanking at the stadium of shite.
