Reception for Mark Hughes...

[Matty]

I'd imagine he'll get some polite applause from some fans, and then it'll all be forgotten. The media will make a far bigger deal of it than anyone else. I'll not experience his "welcome" first hand as I'm in Prague on a stag do the weekend Fulham visit COMS.

I should hope he gets a decent reception, he's been very dignified since his rather badly handled exit and hasn't bad-mouthed the club at all.

A few chants of 'Hughsey, Hughsey' a lot of clapping, a polite wave back from him and then that'll be it.

He didn't do anything wrong whilst he was here. He went very quietly and barely said a word about it to the press. Many lesser men would have been slagging the club off left, right and centre after having their pride dented in such a way. He has my respect for the way he handled the whole situation.

I wonder how he'll feel about meeting Manchin though. He was the guy who, allegedly, was being lined up behind Hughes's back. It'd be nice to think that they have a drink together after the game.

Good luck to him - for most of the time at least.

We'll look small time if he gets a bad reception

That's the reason I will clap.

As fans if we want to show Character/history/sincerity then we should give him a lovely warm reception......if we want to behave like brainless/bitter Neanderthal dummies we could scream rag obscenities at him........I expect more of the latter sadly.

why...?

 

[gio's side step]

Hughes at Fulham could be great news for us because if he signs Bellamy, Ireland and RSC, then it means a top 6 club aint going to sign them, thus less chance they are directly going to hurt us

Just a thought

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

He will get a brilliant reception off all TRUE BLUES good luck in your new job hughesy.

 

[masterwig]

It'll be mixed. There were a lot of fans who hated the guy from the start and couldn't wait to see him sacked. They will probably boo. Others thought he was doing his best under difficult circumstances and appreciated the dignity he showed when leaving the club. These fans will politely applaud Hughes.

Didn't like him before, Didnt like him when he was here and now I can carry on my dislike for him

As for what he did, i admire the work he did on the infrasturcture of the club it was top class but was well out of his depth with great players and challenging at the top

Wont bother slagging him off or booing dont even think its worth acknowledging him, he wasnt here for long and didnt do a good job.
