Happy with Hughton?

[clippedgull]

Pretty much in the middle for me on appointments. But in our position we are not going to attract top managers. Still, as all managers/players. I'm happy to give them the benefit of the doubt until I have seen the fruits or otherwise of their labour.

 

[zefarelly]

Yes good appointment, good guy, I wish him all the best

Really pleased we didn't get Pulis, Sherwood or Warnock

 

[Guerrero]

How can anybody not be happy?
He hasn't done anything yet!

 

[Dick Head]

Yes, lets all get behind Mr Houghton

Ah, but is that ough pronounced as in cough, rough, though, through, thought or plough?

 

[Guerrero]

Try Hooten.
Scottish like.

 

[Invicta]

good appointment - uta

 

[pensionseagull]

let's hope that we get the January transfer window right and build on the last three games.

PS - those who went to Fulham congrats. A Fulham fan friend of mine at the game said it was the atmosphere of the season

 

[Acker79]

To be honest, I'm a little disappointed it's the guy who has been expected since the vacancy arose. Sure, some people suggested Pulis, but that was never realistic, so the "second choice" of Hughton was expected.

I guess after the weeks of Clement/Ince/Sherwood/Mackay followed by the late twist of Hyypia I was expecting there to be a twist and am a little disappointed not to get one.

Ok - I will be the first - I am totally underwhelmed

I agree.

 

[Giraffe]

He will do for me.

 

[Titanic]

Ok - I will be the first - I am totally underwhelmed

Pretty much this.

 

[Gully Forever]

Happy With Appointment, Anyone Who says this is underwhelming needs to wake up. We are NOT Real Madrid.

Having someone with Experience in this division and English Football is the key importance for me.

You grossly under-estimate what NSC is capable of.

You grossly under-estimate what NSC is capable of.

Someone, somewhere, in a dark, dank corner of Sussex is undoubtedly drawing up the blueprints for a Houghton out banner as we speak.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Ok - I will be the first - I am totally underwhelmed

So who would you realistically have liked?....bearing in mind our league position and the Premiership opportunities just now

 

[Questions]

At least we know this mans record, experience and success at this level. Hyppia was just an ex centre half when he came here . This is a good appointment but ffs everyone be patient.

 

[Mackenzie]

Don't know. Depends if we start winning a few games and if he improves the players, bit too early to tell before his first training session.

 

[MattBackHome]

Basically yes.

Best we could expect. Boring, but better than competent football.

Very Oscar.

 

[pigbite]

Happy we have made an appointment. Happy it is someone with some kind of half decent track record. Confident that he should have the ability to get us out of trouble this season. Time will tell as to where he can take us but right now it's about securing a place away from the relegation zone and rebuilding the team and it's morale. For that, I am very pleased it's not Ince.

His profile on Wiki paints a great picture - popular with fans wherever he's been (if not boards!!)
