I know Durham's a twat, but he's made some good points on them both. West Brom on the beach, us extending Crouch's contract etc.

It's hard to argue with what they're saying tbh and it's about time the media realised what's going off at our club.To not be mathematically safe with 3 games to go is just unacceptable with the squad at our disposal.

Extending Crouch's contract is something that's never really bothered me, I was never either "FOR" or "AGAINST" it.....Peter can still be a handful,
But if he's looking for more game time, he's probably best dropping down a league now!!!
However....extending Johnson's contract is nothing more than ludicrous....and I'm amazed Coates has even considered it never mind allowed it!!!
Same goes for Walters with that two year extention!!!

I tuned in after reading this thread for a laugh. First thing I heard was Durham: "When will we hear the manager of a club like Stoke say that it is about something other than 40 points and survival every year" (or close words to that effect - apologies to Mr Durham if i've heard it or interpreted it incorrectly)* Hughes has said it every year since he's been here. He should try a bit of research every now and then. Edit: talksport.com/radio/listen-again/1493650800Click the link, click on 1800-1830 and it starts from roughly 3 minutes before the end of the section. *A little bit different to what I thought I heard at the time, so apologies for the incorrect quote above. The general concensus of his point is still wrong though. Hughes has always spoke about it being more than 40 points, wanting to consistently finish in the top half and possibly have a shot at Europe. He's also gone on record this year expressing his disappointment and saying that we have fell below our expectations. |

A lot of the reason,s we have not achieved expectation, is mainly because of Mark Hughes and his bonkers substitutions. I was a big fan of Mr. Hughes, but I am fast becoming fed up of him and his style of play. I genuinely though that we would blow a point on Saturday when he brought Charlie on, and we nearly did with his first touch of the ball. I was also quite a fan of Charlie's, but for me now, he needs to drop a division.

Can't remember who it was to but it was an excellent ball. |

Just maybe Coates has actualy told Hughes what funds he has next season, and he has to keep these type of players.All you silly boys on here want 5 youth players in the team, so heyyyyy, bring it on, lets see where youth takes us next season. Blames Hughes for not playing young kiddies, blames hughes for playing young kiddies, truly unbelievable. Dont get me wrong the numbnuts of man poo, are the same, blame managem,ent for the injuries, blame the management for not spoending another 200 million on players etc etc, the supporter of today is beyond me. |

He's not the long term answer but I'm happy for him to be a squad player. |

I think the answers somewhere in the middle. One things for sure this has been a very worrying season and changes have to be made and the age of the side particularly the engine room needs to be lowered. |

No. He's not good enough because he's miles off the pace, isn't a particularly good passer, and his set-pieces these days are pure bilge. If he's anywhere near the starting XI next year, it's going to be a long old season... |

Another reason Hughes has fallen short of expectation is because thanks to him the bar has been well and truly risen risen. Came in, never mentioned 40 points, talked us up constantly. If he'd "managed expecatations" like other managers do I think he'd be getting a far easier ride. But he's not daft and I'm sure he knows that..... |

There is quite a difference between mate actual safety and actual safety. We are totally and utterly safe. Job done. Now we should relax and perform like we know we can. Three wins please Hughesy!

In this latest dreadful run Charlie has been now worse than the rest of our rancid midfield including glory boy Joe Allen.
It's absurd that he gets a special mention whilst others continue to get away with absolute murder.

Actually I hope the logic for the Johnson extension is to loan out Tom Edwards for 6 months or the season and then to bring him into the squad / team. |
