[Albion] Chris Hughton - isn't he bombproof in any circumstances this season?

[hitony]

I can’t imagine TB being anything but furious if we go down, Heads will roll if we do imo. No idea which ones though.

It would be harsh if it was CH’s though but this is a results game.

I have spent quite some time browsing through the threads tonight, what I can't get my head round is many are accepting relegation but in the main are expecting CH to just pop us back into the PL, sadly I am not that confident, firstly I think one or two players might want to stay in the PL and will quite possibly get there wish, a large amount of the lower level clubs will be interested in a few of ours, also in my opinion, it is far from a gimme that we will just cruise back into the PL, that said I honestly think there are quite a few who would be happy with Championship football (I am NOT one of them!) Personally and it is only my opinion, I don't think CH is as safe as many think on here, TB will want to stay in the PL whatever it takes....TB is a life long fan and massive supporter of BHA.....CH is not! it is just a well paid job to him......

Good post.

It's funny, I've always thought CH's job is secure and in my humble opinion our awful form is due to a squad lacking in many PL ways. But for the first time earlier, it crossed my mind that we might see his shock sacking. Simply because Chairmen will try absolutely anything to stay part of the £100m additional income PL.

The big question is how much of our failure in recent weeks do you put down to CH either tactics or team selection or even squad additions?

Or a deficient squad that any manager would struggle with?

It matters nothing what I think........It is what TB thinks and in my opinion he will want to stay in the PL whatever it takes.

As borne out by PB stating that staying in the PL is everything.

No money movement, yet

Who decides an players being good enough or coming in?

tb, pb, ch & pw.

 

[BensGrandad]

tb, pb, ch & pw.

I would suggest that only 1 of those has any input on the players ability I on the availability and 2 on the financial viability so the buck stops with CH.

But if the 2 say we want these quality players, and circumstances (much discussed last summer on nsc) mean that we don't get them, leaving a PL deficient squad, is CH still the fall guy?

You do not expect TB and PB to say they are at fault do you?

 

[Springal]

Not bomb proof but I’d certainly be reviewing everything from this season as tactically I don’t feel like Hughton has really learnt from previous PL outings. Fast start to next season essential though

No. Just saying that the bad luck or whatever on Andone etc etc, can't be pinned on CH.

I get your point that TB won't dimiss TB.

or PB so only 2 to take the can if it is thrown.

I cannot see CH being dismissed but I can see him resigning. He has been here a good while now and he might like a different challenge. Have we reached his ceiling ?. All I would say to you doubters is 'be careful what you wish for'.

 

[Surf's Up]

The only problem with sacking CH anytime soon is that it's simply too late - if Prem survival is the aim who the **** does TB replace him with? All the usual suspects have been snapped up by the competition!!!

I told everyone "Hire DiCanio. Passion is what you want from a manager. Nothing more essential."
But did anyone listen? You want a guy to do his nut? None nuttier.

Their 'nutter' did win the Premier League last season. Now, you were saying what exactly? Conte was coaching continually from the sideline. Yes animated but full of passion and guidance.
