I always thought that could also be levelled at Slyvan Wiltord in his pomp. :)

and yet, not that surprising is it? You got the impression the powers at Newcastle were just waiting for the right moment and yesterday's poor display was reason enough


Hard to see what Hughton has done wrong - I can't see anyone else getting them promoted and sitting where they are in the Premiership. I suspect quite a few people who wished them well will now be not-a-little chuffed if they go down again

You'd think that they'd have learnt their lesson, the guy has done them proud and that's how they repay him. There should be some kind of safeguard for guys like him that have done a decent job. I guess we supporters should be immune to this sort of behaviour by now but it leaves avery bad taste in the mouth. I hope he gets a job elsewhere and comes back to haunt the ungrateful buggers.
5-0 home win over Villa, 5-1 over local rivals Sunderland, 1-0 win at the Emirates, 1-1 against the Champions, just been promoted, half way in the table. This was nothing to do with Chris Hughton's qualities as a Manager this was all you need to know about Mike Ashley.
That shows a distinct lack of ambition from the directors at Newcastle United. Alan Pardew hasn't exactly covered himself in glory when it comes to managing football clubs. How is he any better than Chris Hughton? I predict a short tenancy. He'll be sacked within ten months.

I was being generous. He really is crap isn't he.


This from the Mirror's Oliver Holt -


STUPIDITY in a football club owner should never be a surprise but Mike Ashley's sacking of Chris Hughton has raised the imbecility bar to new heights.

Let's get this straight: Hughton gets the club promoted last season despite little investment from the owner; somehow he manages to mould a combustible headstrong set of players into a formidable unit again; he organises them into a side that exceeds expectations in the Premier League this season; thrashes Sunderland; wins away at Arsenal and gets the best out of Andy Carroll to the point where he is drafted into the full England side.

And for this Hughton gets the bullet. Madness. No other word for it.

If it is to be believed, Martin Jol turned down the Toon job because of his relationship with Chris Hughton. It thats true, Jol has gone up hugely in my estimation. I was always thought he'd been shat on by Spurs, and for him to maitain his dignity then, and act in a decent manner over this, is the mark of a decent fella in a dirty business.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
