Yeah I don’t recall them been overly defensive or boring in the championship anyway. One thing I would say about Bruce though is I thought we looked very limited attacking wise under him in quite a few games last year, I’m not sure Bruce is what you would call an attacking manager. I know he was trying to stabilise things defensively and didn’t have his own players etc which are valid points, but it wasn’t exactly edge of the seat, swashbuckling football every week was it?

So what you're saying is, you want Carlos back as long as he plays how he did the first season? I'm in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage owl Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Something Bruce said when he was appointed " my dad used to say to me when I took another job, how much more money do you need son ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 He’s been here 5 months, brought all his own staff in, players have renewed, players signed, players lined up. And let’s not forget he was unemployed when we signed him up on £2m a year. 3 weeks before the season starts he’s off, despite denying knowing anything about it 48 hours ago. And yet we still have some defending him. It’s no wonder we have our bellies tickled. Soft as muck. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in No I’m making the point that people are saying they don’t want Hughton because of his style of football. Don’t get me wrong Bruce came in and got us out of a hole, I was just pointing out that it wasn’t exactly champagne football under Bruce was it?

This. In the context of “it’s not about the money any more”. He is very good at telling fans what they want to hear. Unfortunately after Carlos and Jos, this came as a welcome relief to most of us.

I agree with you, but Carlos the first season, was, well, until the play off final and for some reason he changed. We were entertaining to watch, scored shitloads of goals and were generally a bloody good side. I'd love to go back to that rather than the sh*te Jos served up., or even bruces footy. Also, I'm kind of with you, Hughton in the championship played more expansive and attacking footy than he did in the prem. Although, I'd still want the Cowleys as the next people in the door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Plum Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 SkyBet 1/16 now, surprised they haven't closed the market, suppose they'll be a couple betting on the outsiders, I had £0.63 on Hughton for the Geordies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he'll be able to walk away with a good pay off and also be able to say that he was only sacked because it was due to the new owner wanting to bring his own man in.

He will be doubling/tripling his wage of not more. Gets sacked and he still gets all his wage. He isn't a man of principle, he is going to work for Ashley for f c k s sake.
