It's quite simple... Hughes won't make the same mistakes because Mr. Coates unlike the QPR board and owner, won't let a manager spend the farm on any player he wants irrespective of the wage bill.

Wow... That's really a piss poor article. Not so much the fact it's not researched, but the lack of justification to his conclusion. He's provided no evidence at all.
The way we pulled out the Shaqiri deal to me shows that Hughes probably has picked up a few things from his QPR days.

The huge difference we are attempting to being in quality players in their prime to improve Stoke City not jaded has been's and used to be names like happened thanks to the the money men at Rangers wanting to be seen as a big name football club when they are clearly not. The result they were relegated and deservedly so. If we had gone down the route of maybe a Drogba or some other mid 30 something on their past glories the story would have a few grains of truth but the players we have attempted to bring in are quality with their best years ahead of them and when it became obvious it wasn't going to happen we moved on and I do believe he will bring that marque signing to Stoke eventually but it may take European football to convince them to come. As for being relegated, of course anyone can have that implosion season I personally don't see where its coming from in the near future so the odds are merely a talking point to fill some pages.
