So basically no one really has any legitimate alternatives to what we have other than Eddie Howe and Pulis. Im of for a lie down in a dark room Rafa Legitimate just signed a massive contract with the deluded so would cost more than berahino more like

3 months for me. We need to show we have a game plan at least. I want him to succeed desperately but at the minute he's raising more questions than answers. He can do it though, he's shown that in his first season here. Have to agree with this statement i like Hughes & am desperate for him to succeed but my worry is he has got to comfortable here with a chairman/owner who does not sack people at the first sign of trouble. I am really hoping the next week or so we see some signings to address the problems that are clear to everybody.

Reading some of the posts on here about how Hughes has peaked and we are now spiraling out of control back towards the vale being the number one club in the city. I may be paraphrasing a tiny bit there So the question is to all of the minu Peter Coates out there is who? If you could replace him now who is a genuine replacement who you could see here. Myself im happy with his tenure and arent thinking it but thought i would see how many are and their thoughts. Personally I would have gone for Big Sam at the end of the season, a mid way balance between attack and defence, I think he will be a good England manager. The question was if you could replace him now.

Sean Dyche. Massively underrated manager. Bit exaggerated but hey😄 It really isn't though. He barely gets any recognition. It was all about Zola at Watford when he was by far a better manager and even now he doesn't get a mention despite never really failing as a manager. The only unknown with him is how he'd cope with having money to spend. Quality manager.

I wonder how many would go mental if we get relegated under Hughes ?. So his record would go from 9th,9th,9th, 17th, not sure that will happen. I would settle for 17th right now

Coates will only react if the crowd get on the back of the manager. He's started to back him to the hilt so it would be a big decision for him. Let's wait until deadline day has passed before we start ordering the incontinence knickers. We'd need to start competing from now though - harassing the oppo high up the pitch is nowt to do with ability. He needs to get into his players. For once I agree, the thing that concerns me is that since he has started spending big money we look weaker than we did before, he has to sort the defence out first and foremost we have real issues, not sure if it is a lack of quality or something else is amiss we have to bring in another commanding CB. Competing all over the pitch is a key point we are far to soft give up the cause far to easily, there seems to be an air of apathy that we all thought was due to players saving themselves for the Euros at the end of last season, we appear to have carried that into this season do we have to many big time Charlie attitudes in the squad ? I also agree that he needs to get stuck into the lazy bastards in private of course, FFS he played under Alex Ferguson would AF have accepted the attitude and half arsed attitude we are seeing since January, you bet your feckin like he wouldn't so why should Hughes. In short if he does not pull his finger out and sort out his players the crowd will get on his back and the Coates family will act it is their business that is inexorably linked to our club, they will not tolerate failure if it can be avoided.

Who ? Why??????
Some people need to get real and face facts.
Unless by some miracle we do a " Leicester", we will always be a mid table team with the odd dabble at top 8 if we do really well or God forbid a relegation battle, even going down at worst.
I have and always will be a fan of this club, through thick and thin. Two games in and people are asking nonsense questions. If we are down in the relegation places and the Coates want a change of manager or if we are in the top 6 and some "big" clubs came calling for Hughes who do we think would really be interested in managing us? Certainly not a currently so called top manager.
It's great to dream of winning leagues and cups, playing in the champion league etc. Top half finish, a cup run (win would be fantastic) perhaps another trip into Europe in my opinion is more achievable.
I am not saying people shouldn't have opinions, and if we are languishing at the foot of the table into the new year, I might be more critical myself. But knicker wetting this early in the season after a draw and a loss to the richest team in the league is plainly ridiculous.

The only unknown with him is how he'd cope with having money to spend. Quality manager. He's not massively underrated at all. He gets plenty of well deserved credit. I'd take him at Stoke all day long. Question mark might be his ability to attract players.

There's so much money involved in football nowadays. The Coates-family didn't become so wealthy because they would accept a failure so that they might get even the next year (that is relegation so that the club might get promotion the next season). Football is pure business and a lot of money is at stake. I would guess that Coates will find a new manager if we're in danger of getting relegated. There's just too much at stake. I might be wrong, but I've read somewhere that the person in control is Peter Coates daughter. I'm pretty sure she's not in favour of a possible relegation. The club playing at the Bet365 stadium getting relegated? Not without doing everything to avoid it... I don't know who might take over from Hughes if we're in that situation. Rafa has been mentioned, but there are other good (and foreign) managers around. If Hughes is replaced then I guess it will be by someone who knows the game in Premier League. Besides that, I wouldn't mind Bob Bradley, the former manager of the US national team. There's just one person I don't want as a SCFC-manager...

He was Harrison Park on thursday apparently. Heard high praise for Dyche on Talksport about him being visible and involved at all levels. No where near reached the point of replacements yet though.

Bit of a direspectful post given what he has acheived thus far. Having said that, if I am honest, I am struggling with what he is trying to acheive and I can understand the sentiments. Since the transfer window last season where we lost Bego, Nzonzi and then he gave Huth away I have been a bit bamboozled.
There is no balance to the team(which has been mentioned already in other threads). No competition in certain areas of the park, now only 2 viable centre halves at the club, which is getting almost comical. Too many flair players just being thrown in, no defensive unit or plan
Allen added some much needed balance to that midfield yesterday and the window is still open so let's see what he does. It looks like we are trying to bring in a Centre Half and striker, we desperately need to add pace to an exposed defence and a new no.2 keeper also, although we wont be worrying too much about the keeper if Butland comes back and plays a full season.
But yes deflated, confused and a tad disappointed as it stands at the moment. Dont look good going forward, not sure where a clean sheet is coming from, usual slow start with players not looking fit or prepared - arrrrrrrggghhh.
Sort it out Hughes for feck sake

You know What Carpy as much as this hurts me I agree! You do moan your bag off which grinds peoples goat but that post is near spot on, there is something wrong, hopefully Hughes will sort it. Fingers crossed eh?
