[Dave the OAP]

Mullery. Great manager, lots of talented players...
Taylor..found wardy..Great tactician
Poyet...created a team spirit leading us to falmer...brilliant record
Melia...took us to Wembley ...
Hughton...team spirit..Great motivator.. gets the best out of players..great technician


What do you think?

I think he is the absolute perfect manager for our current situation.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

The sheer dignity and genius of the man. There just aren't enough superlatives, and the beauty (imho) is that I can't see him bring poached by a bigger club/Premier League club any time soon because he's been through that mill before.

Totally agree...they can all fu.ck off!

We're extremely lucky to have him. The job seems to suit him as well.

 

[Mackenzie]

Chris Cattlin might have been had he been given the chance.

 

[Mayonaise]

Hughton has fantastic man management skills to go alongside his footballing nous. He keeps his ego in check and remains level headed regardless of results.

Bloom as Chairman, Hughton as manager and an excellent set up behind the scenes. What's not to like!

The right bloke at the right time

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Steve Coppell was a very good manager....

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

The less he seeks the limelight the better it seems to get. Somehow I can't see him on the MOTD couch, or doing Danny's sausage sandwich. Not justnow, anyway.

Huge gamble I thought at the time as TB seemed to be convinced the Head Coach, continental style was the way forward.

We are very blessed to have CH as manager.

Gamble? He was a proven Championship manager at the time who had already got a team promoted from the league. If anything he was one of the safest and most suitable choices.

 

[Megazone]

IT all depends on what sort of season we're having.

In terms of relegation survival, Russel Slade for what he did in 2009 was tactically brilliant. Same goes for Gritt in 1997.

In relation to promotion managers, Hughton has been spot on so far. Reminds me of the Micky Adams season back in 2001.

To be fair, where we were at the time, anything was a gamble to keep us up.

 

[Sheebo]

When he leaves, whether it be for bigger things or possibly even retirement, (who knows?) you can bet your bottom dolla it will be with dignity and he will be an Albion legend forever for sure.

 

[Luke93]

I've spoken with him a few times, an absolute gent! Best manager by far in my 18 years as a supporter.

 

[ferring seagull]

At this point in time I reckon he is 100% perfect for Albion AND Albion is 100% perfect for him !

 

[lawros left foot]

I wanted Hughton when we got Sami, but, better late than never.
He is a very,very good manager, and he came here with something to prove.(Norwich, and getting sacked at Newcastle)
Steve Gritt was the right man at the right time, and to be fair I never wanted him, I'd never heard of him, before he took up the job, but, what axsuccess he made of it, I, along with many others thought we were dead and buried, so, in my lexicon of Albion managers,


Alan Mullery,
Steve Gritt,
Chris Hughton,
Gus Poyet


However, if we go up this season, Chris Hughton goes to top of my list

He was by far the best available choice at the time.
