Today was far better and has probably covered up the cracks of a dire season in Coates eyes
Make no mistake this has been as bad as Pulis last year
But it's clear he is staying, we all need to come together and back him
I'm one of his biggest critics but if he succeeds, Stoke succeed
I just pray he realises how much work this squad needs
Sign up Bruno, get two new Full backs, a holding mid and we are getting somewhere
Oh and please bring Bojan back

Great Result to end on but hard to call . Not sure they want their manager to stay do they?
Still need a big summer in terms of adding pace and energy I think .

I'll be getting behind him as always, but one problem he will have to sort out is those slow(stationary) starts, if after 6 games we are in the same predicament as last year, year before, year before that, then I am afraid the atmosphere will be vile, and the pressure will be on.
I don't won't a shit start and a new manager, I'd be happier with a better start and let push for Europe, and try to progress again in the cup.

No reason for one is there really, with no summer tournaments. |

Massive summer for the club as a whole, and an even bigger first 10 games for Hughes. Fully agree we need to get behind him, but he absolutely needs to deliver improvement. The "slow starting team" nonsense needs to be a distant memory, and he needs to go into the new season with a game plan and a good sense of his best eleven. Fitness needs to improve, and we need to start scoring goals. No excuses, that time has now passed. Get it right, and he'll be backed by the support. Get it wrong, and he'll be out by Christmas.
No pressure.

Papering cracks again butland game changer saves. My thoughts exactly. Almost any other keeper and we lose that game. I'll get behind the team. I've had it with Hughes. |

He's proved in parts that he can get us playing good football he just needs to be brave and not go back to the old guard next season. Big summer for Scholes too he needs to bring home the bacon. |

If there'd been some semblance of a plan this season and it just didn't work out I can accept that, the fact that it's been a disorganised mess from start to finish has convinced me that his times up. |

But as his time most certainly "isn't up", why not give this supporting malarkey a rest - until he's gone? You would, by so doing, actually give some of us, a rest. |

If support means being completely blinkered and accepting absolutely everything that unfolds in front of me without complaint/debate because I'm "just a fan" I'd rather not, thanks for the suggestion though. |

A win on the last game of the season doesn't​change the way I've felt towards Hughes and the way the clubs going over the last 1.5 years. So sorry, but no.

So if Butland had not got injured on the eve of the new season you think we would have finished higher then? Rooney's goal, but land could have saved? The mix up v West Brom? Eh if that hadn't have happened we'd be two points higher than West Brom in 9th. Just to put a bit of perspective on this. |

Where do you people get off at telling others what to do? Quite right Bayern. Right old sanctimonious dick! If people want Hughes gone then it doesn't make you less of a fan. As for "successful premier team", am I missing something here?. |
