Fail to see the point of giving him one,two or even three more games. He should be judged on the last thirty or so & therefore should be sacked whatever the result on Saturday.

How about "give him until the end of 2017"? There's a big difference between that and the other options. Agree with this. We aren't going to make any progress on a replacement over Xmas and to go managerless into 3 winnable games would be stupid - ask Everton how that works out. Get 7 or more points and we're back in the mid table mix. Less than that and make the decision on new year's day and if we don't make the top half make the decision at the best time - the end of the season.

How many Supporters do we have? and how many log on to this site? God forbid that some looks at this site from around the World and takes it as the Normal Stoke View. TEST Thankfully it's not full of fuckwits who keep putting TEST at the bottom of everything they post 😎 Excuse me, but why the abuse? I don't put it at the bottom of every post either, it just appears, if I could change it I would. I think the guy from Coronation street has the same issue but you do not give him abuse, or is it who you know on this forum? TEST

The deadline has to be Newcastle if no improvement they have to act . Get their new man in who then has time to look at the squad in a cup game then a weeks training before a free game vs the shit. They will have.to back him though Pep would struggle to keep this lot up

1000 people provides a fairly (up until recently) election poll.
Already near 500 here and it’s quite damning.

Looking at the team and his signing he should be gone on the basis of being unable to build a decent team
Having said that, if he does go then he needs to take the scouting staff with him ( Cartwright et al)
We last played decent football almost exactly two seasons ago. Since that time Hughes has become progressively more negative
His three top signings are making next to no contribution to the team and others such as Chuppo/Jesse are not covering for the likes of Arnie
On top of that he has become more and more defensive without being able to defend
And he is unlucky. Best defender goes off at Burnley, long ball - goal
Saturday, Shawcross hits post and Lanzini is able to run almost unmolested until he dives for a penalty Stupid effort from Peiters giving the ref the penalty option
If he stays till January, would you give him the substantial funds needed to rebuild - don't think so?
...so he has to go

Mark Hughes helped us produce some very entertaining football in his first two seasons here. However, last summer was the time he should have gone, as all the danger signs were there last season. He is now past the sell by date, and should be replaced urgently. Sadly the man with most influence in selecting a new manager will be Scholes, and he will not recommend a manager who would get rid of him and Cartwright. Scholes and Cartwright must go as well.

Go to your Profile at the top of this page and then click the edit profile button. Once there click the personal tab and scroll down - it should show a signature box in there. Have a look and see if the Test thing is it - if yes, delete it and save your profile.

I asked the question as to whether the directors would have had the good sense to look at alternative managers over the past few months
And if not, then why not - that is their job!

He’s our LEFT back- where were the two center backs and the right back who should have been there before Pieters?

Even there were decent players available in January, which there rarely are, there’s no chance they’d jump onto a sinking ship. Only the dregs from the Summer are usually available in January.

Trouble is we are always left with the dregs because we do fuck all in Summer. All this was avoidable. It goes back to not investing in the squad when we were riding high after thrashing Liverpool. As you say, who would come here, now?
