AshVilla Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) Replacing a manager who got results by getting his team to play dire football With a manager that fails to get results by getting his team to play dire football Makes perfect sense. I wish I were Mark Hughes be completely shit at a job.... Get sacked earn loads of money in the process then get offered a new one doing exactly the same thing Can't exactly blame him can you Put your money on Stoke to get relegated folks Edited May 29, 2013 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lp_villa830 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I don't think he will do too badly there. At Fulham and Blackburn he seemed a decent enough manager. It was only when he got given big money he seemingly regressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Cringing listening to some Stoke fans on SSN who are disappointed that mighty Stoke didn't go for Benitez instead of Hughes. And I thought we were delusional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted May 29, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 29, 2013 Cringing listening to some Stoke fans on SSN who are disappointed that mighty Stoke didn't go for Benitez instead of Hughes. And I thought we were delusional. There were fans on here calling for Ancelotti, Benitez and Capello after McLeish was sacked. All fans have a group of morons.

Demitri_C Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 god what a very poor appointment they were better going for someone like poyet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted May 29, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 29, 2013 Im not so sure he is going to be a bad appointment. He seemed to do well with the physical side that was his early Blackburn side and they have a lot of similarities with the current Stoke side.

MrDuck Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I'm not sure how Hughes is a step up from Pulis, or a step in a "new direction". Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 30, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2013 Seems like an absolutely terrible appointment to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I think they could have done much better but they could also have done worse. He was poor at QPR and Man City but good in his 3 jobs before that. Didn't he get Blackburn into the top 6 at one stage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legov Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I'm not sure how Hughes is a step up from Pulis, or a step in a "new direction". Odd. I agree. But they don't need one. I think Hughes will do ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted May 30, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) Whether or not he is successful is an merely an afterthought for Hughes. The man has reached the pinnacle....he gets to live in Stoke! Edited May 30, 2013 by Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I imagine he lives in Wilmslow / A Edge area which is a piss easy commute to stoke Lucky boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted May 30, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2013 They are going to be even more horrible to watch / play against now. I expect the yellow and red card column to fill up pretty bloody quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Really? They can not play an uglier style than Pulis did surely. Hughes's Fulham were not as ugly as Stoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
