What time did they announce Hughes' departure after Coventry? No point delaying it past tonight About 6.30. We were still in the bar in the Casino at the Ricoh. Unfortunately I think there is little chance of ponderous Pete wielding the Axe for a year or so yet. BM

The club should have been doing due diligence on a number of managers in the recent weeks.
IMO, they should always have someone on their radar no matter what.

He can't survive this now. He's a dead duck. The atmosphere today matched his football. Diabolical.
Time to stand up and show us what you have learned Peter, John and Tony.

I used to laugh at Watford lining up a new manager every year. They certainly got theirs right even though I still think they change too often.

"There's no way he can get the fans back on board"
Yeah he can, we're fickle. If we'd have beat these 3-0 today all would be forgotten. But we haven't and won't for today.
Coates has to ask himself a serious question. Were we (SCFC) right on one of two fronts. Were they right with transfer backing? Meaning have they given him what he wants transfer wise... Or were we right in hiring him.
Those two questions and answers will determine if we back or sack him. I'm inclined to assume the latter.
We've got to move quick in either backing or sacking him.
We can't afford to dwel. We've got to move fast.
Personally I'd want him gone but everything else has got to be right. There's been a few managers now with strongbhints of transfer unhappiness and we've already discovered chopping the manager hasn't helped either. It's not all at GR feet by the looks of it.

Thoroughly fucking depressing. No goals in a week against shite like Birmingham, Bolton and Bristol City and the same diabolical wank defending that’s been displayed all season.
Half a season in and only one good 90 minute performance. It’s just completely unacceptable and a waste of a season. Just what the fuck is he trying to do and what does he think he’s offering up? He seems happy enough with this awful set up but why?
This run of games should have seen us get near maximum points and instead we’ve been served up complete shit. How has it come to this? It’s like it’s gone full circle and we’re now back at Stoke 2004 levels of shite, but at least we were poor and shite.
Got to go.

We will struggle to get a manager who is rated as well as Rowett into the club, however the crowd have turned which means Coates needs to do something, it was clearly having an impact on the players on the pitch. Only two players for me who turned up today was Mclean and Etebo, rest were useless against a team that didn't even try and compete, only to counter. McClean, that clueless joke of a footballer! I'm sick of his decision making, stupid is a very mild word here!

Rowett has to go!
Stoke and GR thought these strikers was good enough shoot us to PL again: - Berahino that had zero goals for Stoke in PL. - A Peter Crouch that is 37-38 years old. Past it. - We bought Afobe an avarage Championchip player at the best. - A 18-19 year old Tyrese Campbell. Too young. - Mame Diouf....is he realy a striker?
You have to be a very optimistic person to believe in promotion to PL with these strikers.
We now need two strikers that is better the strikers we have. A new creative midfielder, center back and a full back would also be good.

Not sure Coates will have appetite to pay compo, get a new manager and back room team in while providing further funds to completely overhaul Rowetts shambles. Think we’re stuck with him onlooker

We met Bolton some days ago without creating half a goalscoring opportunity, well tonight they met a "mighty club called Hull" and see how that panned out!

I don't dislike the bloke but at the end of the day it comes down to performances and results. This hasn't happened over the last 3 games but since the the 1st game of the season.

Seriously though could FFP be an obstacle in getting rid. Surely we are now accepting promotion is looking unlikely this season can we really afford to fire the gun?

He inherited a totality shit squad. He's not a magician. All the mega signings are on loan as they are shiter than shit and the ones that have stayed are just here to top their pension pots. What the hell do you expect him to do???? Mark Cartwright and Tony Scholes need to be dragged into the car park and publicly hung along with Mark Hughes.

I'd like to see him set the team up in a style of play that wasn't proven hilariously inadequate against an organised defence on November 1st 2008 (I should mention, it was already on the wane by then, and had largely been proven inadequate and not really something being used by successful teams at that point already)

We need a new manager, the new manager backed in the January window and again in the summer, and Cartwright and Scholes out too. Does anybody believe that any, never mind all, of that could happen?
