Millenniumram Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Mental really, you’ve gotta give a manager at least one transfer window lmao, even we haven’t been that harsh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenBr Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 FIngers crossed this disrupts the dressing room so much that they never win another game for the rest of the season. They go down with the new lowest points total and we get Will Hughes back for a cut rate price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is more a symbolic one for me anyway - managers don’t tend to handle transfers these days. It’s more being in charge long enough to have a transfer window- ie about half a season at least.

Well if managers dont handle it your point about having at least one doesn't add up then I am sure managers must be involved and even if he had all but 5 days i am sure the transfer window work starts weeks or months before it even opens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you have a time machine there is no way to know if they will or not. I don't expect them to beat the record, but they could certainly take some of our records as Huddersfield did last year. A lot of the Watford fans I know don't really seem to like Hughes. He plays on the right of a three behind the striker usually, which to me doesnt seem like his best position (even if we were playing him as a defensive mid at times). I imagine they would probably hold on to him if they find themselves in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a transfer window every 5 months or so, no manager should be sacked really without getting around that length of time in charge for me, not withstanding a Pearson scenario. Im sure managers are involved obviously, but I don’t think they really define the sort of targets teams go after these days, not generally anyway.

But Mac had got Boro to the UEFA Cup final and had won the Eredevisie before he came to us tbf. Clement has, at best, been average, and at worst, failed, in every job so far.

David Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 More managers this season than wins. Allardyce will be sat by his phone, wouldn’t be a bad idea either if it’s just till the end of the season with the one objective of staying up.
