How do you think the whole situations been handled Dave? Isn’t Hughes been used as a scapegoat by Scholes and Cartwright who are equally as responsible. Surely PC can see that? I think that a statement from the board would help. Statement incoming Dave, or just your thoughts?

The board are again having meetings to try and push the club forward.Decisions still need to be made on what's best for the club at this moment in time. Do they actually have no contingency plan in place ? fuckin amateurish outfit.

Same bloke who signed off on 1 take that Arnie we’ve signed Jesse on,On now that’s ambition. 2 what problem they can keep their statements and just start acting like a commercial organisation. With the firing of the principal offenders who’s watch such a catastrophic decline has been allowed to happen on, the by at least trying to hit their way out of trouble with significant investment

Just to be clear: are we talking about the management group called the TeleTubbies or, if I've got that wrong, the Clangers - that are currently busying about down at planet Bet365?

You can safely bet that the announcement will be something like "Stoke City are fully behind Mark Hughes in this difficult period and will make the £5m from the sale of Joe Allen available plus another £1m to spend on 2 full backs a pacey midfielder a right winger (for when Shaq leaves) and a 20 goal a season striker, we (the board) will be confident of and expecting a push towards a place in Europe this season following the sizeable investment made." Gouranga.

Gouranga. Is that "fully behind Mark Hughes" as in on the edge of a cliff? Or, is that "fully behind Mark Hughes" so that they can hide behind the poor sod and let him take all the flak? Clarification would be earnestly appreciated - so as to alleviate the pain and grief that is currently afflicting the demented souls on this fucking Message Board.

The board are again having meetings to try and push the club forward.Decisions still need to be made on what's best for the club at this moment in time. Will they finally realise that a business model of self sufficiency is doomed to failure in the premier league, especially when all of your rivals are moving in a completely different direction?

Surely they must realise that their inaction and dithering is doing tremendous damage to the club both on and off the pitch. We are now (rightly) being portrayed as a complete shambles with no plan to stop the rot, no plan to replace a failed manager, and no ambition for the future, and are simply failing to react to the mounting list of problems.
They may be reasonably happy to stumble along this path to the Championship but the fans will let them know their feelings in no uncertain way at the first available opportunity.
I fear this is all going to get very nasty before much longer.

All well and good Dave but if the gruesome twosome , can’t or won’t sign them , because they can’t sell the story , won’t pay etc then he is their patsy at the front of the shop every Saturday while they enjoy the chilled wine , comfy seats and anonymity

Every chance that we havn't made a change because nobody else worth their salt will work under those circumstances. A change means ridding the club of a transfer team & the club's transfer policy

Not suggesting anything,I would hope that if a Manager was not happy with signings then he should say so, I have not heard any comments from Mark Hughes to suggest that he is not happy with the signings,surely now would be the time to say something, before any more money is wasted in this window.
