Pearl Ram Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I’m guessing Mark Hughes will be down the road before the night’s out, 3 nil down at home to West Ham currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 to be fair, they were saying earlier on Soccer Special that Hughes has protected the chairman. Not once has he ever moaned about lack of investment. The owners have pocketed cash without investing in the team, if they go down, the owners deserve it.

Parsnip Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 No idea what Birmingham need to save their season (aside from a time machine so they can throw some money at Gary Rowett instead of sacking him), but Steve Cotterill must be on under pressure now.

I guess it depends on what you'd classify as a lack of investment. Stoke have spent about £100m on new players over the past two and a half seasons. Is that reasonable for a club looking for midtable PL football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling Arnautavic and spending the budget on two defenders (and they still concede loads) doesn't look good for Mark Hughes at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 606 will be fun when Hughes get sacked. Robbie Savage for two hours ranting that his mate is the best thing ever for stoke and should've been offered the spurs/man city/man u/Chelsea etc jobs becuse he failed to qualify wales with him in the team.

He’s already had a go at one of those jobs. His performance there explains why he’ll never get anything better than Stoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjam Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Angel Rangel says 'the Swansea City way is not in place anymore'. Interesting that seeing as the same manager never bought into the 'Derby County' way. They desperately need a new manager in before the transfer window opens to give them any hope. Hughes should go at Stoke as well, but thats based more on the fact that I can't stand the bloke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were very hoofball last night as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
