why sack hughton for is this at another club cause if its old news its gone lol

[McFaul 35]

Not to 1/2 it hasn't. I heard before we beat the mackems, Pardew had been offered the job, if that's the case or some other useless cockney wank like Kinnear am not gann back. We were shit yesterday, but we were missing three midfielders who change our game immeasurably, all yesterday showed was our squad is shit, and that's not Hughton's fault.

19 months on, I'm prepared to hold my hands up and say "well done Mike", still a fat cockney wank though.

Mind, there's still the "Pardew Out" photos somewhere on my Facebook, so there you go.

Couldn't find the best place to put this.

"I think we are realistic about where we think we are' date='" Pardew said. "I think we are in that group with Tottenham, Everton, Liverpool. But whether we can reach the dizzy heights of Man City, Man United, Chelsea … where they are now … it's going to be tough. But you've got to believe you can.

 

"[b']The only time I hear the word 'expectations' from Newcastle fans is from journalists from the Midlands and London.[/b] But up north, they know. We will continue hopefully to excel this year and get a top- eight finish. Top five would be a great achievement."

 

He's spot on though.

Pardew knows, it's cush.

Shame he didn't say "or from megatron head himself, Sam Allardyce."

[Tooj 17]

Top class bloke who I'm glad to see is forging a very good managerial reputation for himself.

[Noelie 103]

Norwich in 7th. place now, bring back Hughton.

[Tooj 17]

Some fucking nerve getting his team to go to the Etihad to actually try and win the game and not just roll over due to who they were playing.

[Monroe Transfer 0]

I'm not excusing that performance but we went to Old Trafford and the Emtirates and didn't roll over. We were well beaten at Stamford Brdige too but again didn't roll over. Went to White Hart Lane and would have gotten a point if not for Bale.

 

Norwich have rolled over a few times this season, most notably at Anfield if I recall correctly.

 

Different circumstances today as well - Norwich had nothing to be nervy about like we did a couple of months back, and Man City have had a turbulent week and have no manager.

 

Agree with your underlying sentiment but I think you're being a bit kind to Norwich/Hughton there.

I'd take Hughton over Pardew on this seasons performance, if the roles were reversed there's no chance Pardew would have finished in 11th with that Norwich team.

No way that can be proved.

Pardew might well have done better with a more 'home grown' squad than the squad he has here now.

If the masterplan is getting cheap players from abroad with a hunger (to move on to better things with and after us) then maybe they need to work out if Pardew is suited to his new 'foreign correspondent' role?

[Monroe Transfer 0]

On that note I wonder if Hughton would have finished fifth with our squad last season?

[scoobos 298]

wow, just voted on this poll - unbelievable with the 80%+ strongly disagree (although that was my vote).

Why is that a surprise?

[scoobos 298]

Because there really wasn't that much of a stink among my mates at the time - and not much pitch side protest either? or did I miss something?

[Happy Face 29]

There was plenty of "one chris Hughton" at the games following his sack iirc.

 

Local bars [were] quick to cash in by doling out logo'd up pro-Hughton T-shirts.

 

Much attention had been devoted pre-match to the behaviour of home fans, with talk of protests, boycotts and various delayed entry schemes. With the game already heading for a 50K gate before Hughton's ousting and ticket prices £35 and upwards though, it seemed unlikely that punters would vote with their feet. That made the pertinent question how the mood of the crowd inside the ground would affect the game.

 

With memories of the post-Keegan departure game against Hull City in 2008 - and United's slipshod display - still fresh in the mind, that was something of a concern. In the event,as many cheers as jeers greeted the appearance of the teams, with only a couple of Hughton-related banners in the Gallowgate End giving any real clue to the untutored that all wasn't well round these parts. The biggest difference two years on proved to be that United scored early, breaking the off-field tension and seemingly strengthening belief on it.

I would use his shit for toothpaste.

 

 

Wish him luck with his Brighton adventure.
