Hughes sacked

[Mike D]

Re: not long left for hughes

He'll never be in this position again whilst he's manager. Think on you egotistical idiot. The thing that irritates me is the excuses.

had some rotten luck though hasn't he. i think they will sack him but where did sacking warnock get them? sparky is twice the manager he is. i must say though that perhaps a new backroom team may help. something is wrong and it needs fixing.

Yip sack all the backroom staff and bring in more Taffia thatn will sort it for sure, just like he did with us.

Re: not long left for hughes

Why doesn't he get rid of Mark Bowen and bring in a coach with different/fresh ideas?
His main tactic is to stand on the touchline with arms folded looking angry.

Errmmmm

Re: not long left for hughes

qpr have got some really good players,at home they really should be a tough nut to crack.

they will gel and become a better team im pretty sure of that,but i reckon harry is sniffing round in the background,he was hailed a hero for spurs"saving them from relegation" which they would of never been in trouble once that team started to gel,he will see his chance again here,do a good job with qpr,then when roy gets the england sack he will be a shoe for that,hes one lucky fukker.

Re: not long left for hughes

Tbf 2 him he only spent about 200 odd million on new players whilst with us and we did get some vital home draws against Fulham , Burnley and Hull

For me the highlight was getting spanking off bottom of the Championship Nottingham Forest on our own patch, playing Richards, Zabaleta and Kompany (although obviously not as a defender, how stupid would that be)... Oh, and never winning a derby. That was awesome too.

Completely forgot about the Forest match what a fuckin joke how did he keep his job after that 4 nearly 12 months , remember De Niro still sayin Hughes would turn it round , how we laughed.

MCFC OK

Re: not long left for hughes

Has anyone ever been given as much money and support as Hughes and produced so little?

Steve Bruce and Roy keane

One of the worst City games I've been to that. Absolute shambles

And look at the team we had out that day:

Man City: Hart, Zabaleta, Richards, Dunne, Ball, Elano, Fernandes (Hamann 60), Kompany, Wright-Phillips (Vassell 24), Caicedo (Jo 70), Sturridge.

Hart, Zab, Richards, Elano, Kompany, Wright-Philips, Sturridge - some good players there totally mismanaged which lead to an absolute embarrassment of a performance

Re: not long left for hughes

Like others I backed Hughes when he was our manager up until the time he was sacked, but I'm now grateful we flirted him when we did because if he was still in charge I very much doubt we'd have won the league by now. I'm not sure he's quite as clueless as others think but it's clear that Hughes is a better manager when working with a small budget - he had Blackburn finishing in the top 6 and did ok at Fulham a couple of seasons back, both jobs where he didn't have a great deal of money to spend.

However, with us and now at QPR he's spent shit loads of cash and the return so far has been poor and his purchases do have a whiff of a scatter-gun approach. There's still time for him to turn it around at QPR and despite the mocking and him sounding like a broken record his teams do generally pick up in the second half of the season. Thing is, he might not be around long enough at QPR to prove it. Fernandes seems to be a decent owner but I'd imagine he's already getting a bit nervy.

That was indeed a piss-poor performance and looking back, I'm surprised how strong a team we had out.

Shades of a very recent League Cup line up and performance.......

I looked at my facebook timeline over the weekend. Following Hughes' dismissal, my status read, "City sacking Hughes is a massive, massive step backwards".

Thank fuck I have nothing to do with running MCFC.
