What's frustrating is that we may have spent weeks chasing him, when we could have appointed someone else, who really wanted the job... Bit like chasing a really fit bird, only for her to just turn out to be a co*k tease... When all the while you could have been banging her slightly porky mate with massive jugs! Great analogy that mate! And i agree! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauchief Owl Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Pity that CH does not want job but we move on. Transfer window closes in 8 days and we're unlikely to be appointing this week as LB in charge Saturday so time is very tight. Maybe another offered job this weekend but if not might as well let LB take first few matches and see how it goes. Any incoming manager would probably go with his advice anyway for these early matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is rushed by him. If you are on a tight budget, which we seem to be on, I think it helps if you know the division. If you're coming in blind, you will have to give the current players time to impress, you will also need to find players who can improve the squad Someone like Hughton or Rowett, will already have a pretty good idea of our players, they will probably have a pretty good idea of which players can improve us With the window coming up fast, this is a massive help A foreign manager will probably not have the insight of someone who has already managed in the Championship It isn't essential, but it's a big help if you've already got a good idea of what the Championship is about A foreign manager will catch up, a domestic manager has a bit of a start, that's all 2 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Yellowbelly Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Not overly bothered if true tbh, not the biggest fan of Hughton and I reckon he’s generally in the same bracket as Pulis & McLaren. The main concern I have is the potential leap into the unknown with a manager we’ve never heard of. That said, there has been a number of good Portuguese coaches working over here recently.

ChapSmurf Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) This is old news. There is absolutely nothing in this article that wasn't known publically weeks ago, as Hughton stated he wasn't interested and nothing has changed since. "A Wednesday source has told Football Insider that the Championship club have offered the 60-year-old the chance to take over the job......" - yeah, we probably did, about 3 weeks ago. "going into the new campaign this weekend." - well there's breaking news! Well done Pete O’Rourke. Basically he is using this phrase to make it seem like the offer was made this week. As for Hughton suddenly going back to favourite, unless there is some truth in the odds, I could lump £1000 on Bobby Robson being our next Manager, and within 5 minutes Sky would have cameras outside St. Jame's Park, and interviews lined up with Shearer and Morinho asking him how good he was and whether he will take the job! Sh!te journalism at its best. Edited July 31, 2019 by ChapSmurf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is rushed by him. I absolutely agree with most if not all of your points, however at this stage of the year, with the season starting, someone else's squad with the obvious flaws we have, feel experience of the league is a key attribute. There is no time to work on the training ground, it's all about recovery and a relentless fixture schedule. It needs in depth knowledge of the league. With a full pre season and opportunity to recruit, no problem whatsoever. Farke for example at Norwich, first season he struggled, second season he excelled. The Championship is a unique league, as tough as it gets and far removed from anything most foreign managers will have faced. I would have liked to see someone like Stendel considered as soon as Bruce left, but we've left it too late and seem to have been plundering a pretty shitty pool of out of work managers, pinned our hopes on the only one with a decent CV and now in a pickle.

Owls-Fan Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Haven’t got an issue with Hughton turning us down, a large majority of clubs have been promoted without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
