I know a lot of the goals can't really be blamed on Given but I'd drop him for the next game and start Grant. Due to his height next week he'll be targetted. We need someone big in there who's prepared to come for crosses. Haugaard it is then - it may be

Er... no thanks. And you don't save a team from the drop when there's nearly 100 points to play for. Happy clapper? Face facts and eat humble pie. Look at his CV, we need a saviour, unfortunatley Jesus is dead. Happy clapper? I don't think so, but the idea that Pulis is the right answer, no fucking thanks. As for his CV, yeah claiming he saved a team from relegation when there's 100 points available is the type of thing he'd claim for himself.

Actually I wonder wheather TP would even take up the challenge, have we got so bad? Is there a defence to salvage?

The trouble is, I cannot see any manager who could get this team or should I say squad of players doing much. Terrible transfer business, and players here who should have gone a long time ago! We are in big, big trouble!

We are in big, big trouble! I agree that the window was a shambles but still a good manager who could still the defence, get them sorted on dead balls both defensively and attacking wise and making a few obvious changes like dropping walters and then get in 2 good players in the January window and we could be just fine

Bullshit transfer window. Weaknesses not addressed. Shit team selection. Hughes gone by Monday.

Who would we get in as a replacement? Roy Hodgson, Colin Wanker? No thanks.

The defending is all down to the management, even with poor players you shouldn't be conceding 4 goals every week. If we don't beat WBA next week there are no more excuses for MH and his staff.

Get stuck in" IF Hughes HAS to go let's stay Welsh: Coleman

I think Hull in the cup may well be the penultimate straw. At times like these I try to remain positive but after today it's getting harder

Wouldn't be the worst choice. Did an outstanding job with the odd Galactico and predominantly puffers and duffers. A bit of passion wouldn't go amiss neither

There is no way in this world that Peter Coates will lose face and go begging Tony Pulis to come back. He is too proud to take that route. Personally i think Mark Hughes has had bad luck with Butland and gambled on him being fit for the start of the season. That gamble has back fired as Given is clearly not up to the job. I cannot however excuse that choice of back four/five today. WBA will make or break us , but i fear we are going to get bullied and if Given plays i think we will lose. You do not become a bad manager overnight. Last year we were a lottery away from a league cup final and played teams like Man City , Man Utd off the park. MH deserves longer than the WBA to turn it round but in todays modern football enviroment few are granted such mercy. PC is not a chairman to panic and he will not be swayed by the media circus leading up to Saturday. Would Hughes do the honourable thing and resign?. One thing for sure Pulis will be pumped up for this one .

I bet he has a pretty watertight contract - the Welsh want to hang on to him as long as they can. Besides, it's emotional for Coleman - he's a proud Swansea boy managing - successfully - his national team. Would he want to come and sort out our rabble? If I were him I'd stay put. On the other hand I really know nowt about his thought processes and you could be right! I do think we need a change though...

One thing for sure Pulis will be pumped up for this one . Good post!!! I neither hate nor worship TP (he did a great job for us for a while, until he outlived his usefulness), BUT I DO NOT want him back here!! I'm sure no-one will go 'cap in hand' and ask him to come back, and I really doubt that he'd consider it anyway. I believe that MH will be given a little longer to sort things out, and hopefully when he has a FULL squad of fully fit players to choose from, he'll be able to do so. In saying that......next weekend is definitely a MUST WIN game for me !!!
