My previous post simply stated that it's better to have an opinion than not.
Nothing to do with positivity, or negativity.
fair enough moomba, i'm all for a good debate, even a heated one ;) it just isn't as much fun on here at the moment! the 10 threads a minute culture isn't helping.
I suppose at the end of the day most of us want the same thing and half of us will be proved right? i honestly believe Hughes has to stay and will get it right (i didn't look in the handbook for that either ;))

Because our performances merit it. ~I have been highly complimentary when we've been playing well.
FWIW, I posted last week that the West Brom game was a great opportunity to start a real run up the table, and I've posted all year that I think we can still make a UEFA Cup spot (don't believe that any more).
But people will read into things what they want.

Ajay, agree with your comments.
I am not pro or anti Hughes at this moment in time but I am prepared to give the bloke a fare crack at the whip. Lets just remember a few things here.
Hughes has inherited a squad, that for the second half of last year was awful, (boro, fulham). HIS purchases on the whole have improved the team and I would expect more improvements in January, although I believe that these will not be the superstars some people want, but will be want we need in our current situation and move us forward.
I have taken a good long hard look at our squad and not many of them would get into the a top 4 starting eleven, Robbie (yes), Ireland (maybe), SWP (tried once, maybe), Kompany (maybe), Zab (maybe), Hart (maybe) not many others. If we want to achieve the vision set out by the new owners, then we need to be prepared to build a team and allow Hughes to do this. I am sure he has style of play he wishes to impose on the team but he currently doesn't have the squad to back it up and the currently palyers have seriosuly underperformed.
Come on we gave SGE a year, it is the least we can give Hughes.

Stop being negative. The M doesn't stand for Mark, that's just a pseudonym. It really stands for Messiah.

Bunch of drama queens. When Hughes performs like a manager we'll treat him as one. He deserves all the criticism he's getting at the moment (except any chanting at games which, despite my hatred for the man, I don't think should happen)

Good post from ajay-i think it's clear now to anyone with a bit of sense that mark hughes has a team on his hands that needs a lot of changes-he does not only need the january window but the next as well (and maybe more after that ) before we can see if things are on the up. untill then it just does not make sense at all trying to second guess him or insulting him.Yes things do not look good at the moment but all blues must be patient ( and i know how hard this is,i have been a fan for 38 years) and calm the fuck down.Anyway, may i take this opportunity to wish all blues a merry christmas and a successful and table rising new year.
Not all the fans were involved in that chant, in fact many tried to stop it.Ajay said:The negativity on this forum is unbearable!
We should all sit back and read what is being posted and reflect on what other people think of us and our club when they read the crap we say about ourselves!
Talk about the squad not having a winning mentality - more so it is the supporters who do not have a winning or supportive mentality!
Negativity breeds Negativity!
We where there behind our club through some tough times, much tougher than we currently face but some posts on here sound like it is the end of the world and MH is the Anti-Christ!
Well I said it before and I will say it again - we must have faith, we must support and we must cheer our squad and our manager rather than act like a bunch of school kids, I was horrified when I heard the chants at the WB game - actually disgusted is a better description!
There are no excuses for those chants - maybe our boys didn't start it but we certainly carried it through!
Please - remember who we are, why we support our club and the fact that we are entering a new chapter in our life - a solid positive move that will take time!
Cheers
But you'll find that the majority of fans on here agree with their sentiments. I don't.
The supporters want to win at all costs. They see Hughes as a problem not the solution, but they don't know the facts.

then enlighten us, please
I've supported hughes for months, even supported vassell over elano etc etc. but when i went back and looked over things again, i've decided I can't do so any more. I agree there are problems at the club, but i can only conclude MH has tried to change too much too soon, and has made several glaring errors that have only made things worse. I'm not saying he has no chance of turning it around, but i think he has made more of a mess of things than ever needed to be the case.
