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.

Make that top of the league and through to next stage of Champions League!

    • I was woken around midnight the other night as a Lime man tried to untangle a heap of three bikes someone had piled on my driveway. They block the pavements and people knock them over in frustration. I wrote to Lime and told them that in future any bikes left near my property would be securely stored away for collection at a mutually convenient time for both parties. I confiscated one at the weekend but a man knocked on our door looking to rent it while I was at work and my son gave it to him! I told Lime it's not fair of them to push the problem on to the local collection depots, they create the problem by allowing users to dump the things wherever they like. If they were penalized for doing so that would put an end to it.

    • The address is: Bradbury Oak House, 4 Underhill Road, SE22 0AH
    • "2.2.1 The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) has undertaken a comprehensive consultation process with its residents and stakeholders regarding the proposed development which aims to create 41 additional units and has been designed to address the growing demand for accessible and supportive accommodation for individuals with visual impairments. 2.2.2 The consultation process has been a key part of the planning phase, ensuring that the needs and preferences of current residents are taken into account. RNIB has held several meetings, workshops, and surveys to gather feedback on the design, facilities, and overall impact of the new development. Residents have been encouraged to share their views on various aspects, including accessibility features, communal spaces, and the integration of the new blocks with the existing infrastructure which has directly informed the proposals. 2.2.3 The Applicant also engaged with the local MP, Helen Hayes, and a couple of local councillors at the behest of RNIB tenants to provide new homes to promote independent living for its Blind and Partially Sighted residents"     Seems like a very sensible and necessary proposal to me.
