Hughton in!

[tiotom92]

Managed Newcastle, won the Championship first season. Sacked next season with Newacstle 11th in the Premier League. Harsh.

Managed Birmingham, finished 1 point behind top in their Europa League group whilst in the Championship, where they finished 4th.

Managed Norwich, sacked whilst in 17th place, they were eventually relegated. Harsh.

Not a bad record for the three seasons he's managed.

Also, taken from Wikipedia: When Hughton was dismissed as Newcastle manager, Kevin Nolan told The Sun, "Sometimes at clubs, when a manager goes, there will be some players who are pleased to see the back of him ... But everybody liked Chris. He was very popular, not just with the players but everyone who worked for the club.

Hughton in!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention TipTopTom.

Do you think he's in the running to replace Hyppia? Any other rumours that you can share?

Bore off LICKER

Point well made guys, point well made.

To be fair, other than the 'Jones or Hughton' thread on the second page, I couldn't see any other threads on Hughton.

I just don't get the negativity about Hughton with a record like that, the majority would prefer Jones to him, what?!

 

[Max Paper]

Jones IN

 

[Insel affe]

Bollox Nathan in....


Feck far more passion and he cares about the club.

 

[tiotom92]

Cares about the club? Didn't he pretend to be hit in the face to get one of our players sent off a few years back?

And IMO passion doesn't equal a good manager.

Saying that, if we do hire him, I hope I'm proved wrong.

 

[Bladders]

Just like he had passion for Charlton when they were paying his wages

 

[JOLovegrove]

99% of players/managers have been at more than one club. Unless you are Steven Gerrard or John Terry, you have to show passion for the club you are currently employed by. Believe it or not, even the likes of Calderon was once employed by someone else. Sami got moaned at for showing none, Nathan gets moaned at for showing some. People cannot win.

How many players kiss the badge when they score, it means nothing but keeps the supporters happy them showing their 'loyalty' and how many like Dan Harding say they are joining their favourite clubs. Recently a player from Belgium said it about Middlesbro when he joined, absolute rubbish.

 

[Rich Suvner]

If Chris Hughton is genuinely the only real option right now I'd rather NJ was given the rest of the season - he'll keep us from going down - and frankly that's all we're playing for.

More of the Same?

Who was understandably frustrated at seeing his side dominate against Cardiff but only collect a point?
They had 61 per cent of the ball and managed 31 shots in total – more than any side in one game so far this season – but still failed to beat Cardiff keeper David Marshall.
It’s not new , however. In the 11 matches since he took charge in which they have achieved more than 50 per cent possession they have failed to win any of them.

So Hughton might fall seamlessly into the Albion system?

Give the guy a break. This is a message board where people can discuss whatever is important. There is nothing more important than the new manager. It's not clever to continuously dismiss anyone who starts a thread on something that is already known.

I completely agree, if a club were paying me stupid money to do what I loved doing I would kiss the chairmans arse in public let alone the badge!! this loyalty thing is complete rubbish (with the exception of a few) a player / manager goes to a club and they always say what the fans want to hear, the only loyalty they have, and quite rightly so, is to themselves and where necessary their families, its the money that buys temporary loyalty, sadly!

Hughton is on the Radio 4 Today programme this morning - to discuss the vacancies in the Premier League.

I'm assuming you are one of the people who have " Gone Large " on him at 1/7 on then ?

Even Calderon was oh so close to moving to Southampton

Thanks for listing all this. I've always liked Hughton, both as a player and a manager.

Hughton "not interested" in unfinished business at Newcastle but definitely interested in Albion job. Both of them unfortunately according to his Radio 4 interview.
