What is he saying by outsiders? That Stoke fans are so thick they just suck in the press speculation and are not capable of using their own eyes, shouldn't be pissed off by the dozen (fucking dozen) hammering's we've had over the past 18 months and can't comprehend the absolute chaos that has characterised most of this season? I've refrained from this so far, but how about you just fuck the fuck off, Mark.

It's perhaps will in future be seen as Hughes' Keegan (I'd love it...) or Rafa (I want to talk about facts...) moment Soon will be over in that case...

If he didn't we would be sure to know. Stories would be leaked to the press, poor discipline would show itself on the pitch and in training ground accidents, results would be far worse. What results and performances say is that players are bereft of confidence. Or maybe they’re just short of managerial motivation and tactics Again if that was the case it would manifest itself in other ways than just a bad day at the office vs B'mouth. Players would send in transfer requests and so on. Apart from Arnie, Nzonzi (both of whom has spoken highly of Hughes) and Wilson (who hasn't) there has been no other in 4½ years

I don't know if this is wishful thinking but this week has all the hallmarks of a manager up against the wall and under pressure. Coming with sound bites that are completely against the reality of what's been going on. 2 fucking games... On the other hand, he knows he's fucked and he's trolling for that fat pay day with his P45. Either way he's an absolute bell end. Stop wasting our time and fuck off.

Staggering arrogance from the manager. Our football has been ropey for nigh on two seasons. Yes, I think we've made baby steps this season to claw it back a bit but a bit of self awareness won't go amiss here.
He does have this nasty habit of biting the hand that feeds when he's on the ropes doesn't he?
Big mistake.

"Guys, I hold my hands up, I don't know shit from Shinola!".

On the one hand, a manager has to have self-belief; on the other hand, when does that self-belief become head in the sand? I think LMH is a decent guy, with a good pedigree. The first 3 years, we saw some great football but the last 18 months, performances have generally been utterly frustrating and the wholly unacceptable number of 4 goal defeats have been humiliating. Sadly, I feel there is a dawning reality - that cliff edge is fast approaching. Unfortunately for our manager, Hughes, very fast needs to deliver. I reckon he has 3 games.

Pulis wasn’t manager in League One. He also lost the plot in his last two seasons just like Hughes has, yet you thought it was a travesty when he went, exactly what you’re accusing others of. Don't let facts get in the way of open discussion, two seasons? The reign of TP went down like an areoplane without fuel from January of his last season. Without doubt something went on behind the scenes which ended the PC/TP love affair. No one without inside knowledge will ever be in a position to say what the issue was We won four games after the turn of the year in his penultimate season. Then three games in his last five months in his second. Sweet that it must be ‘something behind the scenes’ though, excuses you’ll make for him that you won’t make for Hughes.

Any manager has to stick with his beliefs and principles, certainly they must never under any circumstances abandon those beliefs and bow to fan pressure. Mark Hughes might lose his job, it's not the end of the world for him and like Pulis he will attract interest from other clubs.

He's doing what any good reputation management advisers would tell him to do:airbrush shit out of history. Don't answer the questions put to you, create your own. Hence, the two game losing streak, shocking isn't it quote. Classic don't look there, look here, diversionary tactics. Politicians do it all the time.

Good point how about 1 how many away wins this year 2 how many away points this season on. That basis why should anybody expect anything but another sound hiding .

I saw a stat there, so is it true the only away games we have won in the last 18 months are hull, sunderland and the dead rubber at Southampton?
Fucking hell

There really isn't any big fat payoff to be had he's out of contract next Summer any payoff will be manageable. In a way he's right we're on a 2 game losing streak, alternatively we've had a couple of decent performances and several dreadful ones out of 11 fixtures following on from a season that he eventually admitted himself was fairly abysmal with very few exceptions(half a game against Sunderland away and half against Leicester at home)

My opinion is that he's an arsehole.
I didn't like him before he was here. I've put up with him because he's our manager but 98% of the time he's a complete arsehole. Once we finally get rid of him we'll understand what a total arsehole he is.

There is no justification - only a demonstration of your bile. You don't know him personally, you have no clue what he actually is.

With no contract extension, he has only a few months pay to lose.
