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.

    • Hope you find someone - she looks lovely. Unfortunately we have a 14 year old female with similar  colouring to Pip, who is not tolerant to other cats as she is the last remaining cat of the 4 we originally had.
    • Husband came back with a load of household stuff from Pound Land yesterday - he calculated he saved around £7 on half a dozen items.
    • The only time I fill the petrol tank to its' capacity is if we go to visit family in West Sussex and stay in the nearby Premier Inn for a few days. There is no bus service between family home and the Inn - so around 8 miles round trip each day plus outings. I can afford to fill up completely, but choose to half fill in case car stolen/petrol syphoned.
    • We are looking for a new home for a beloved pet cat, Pip. Pip is an 11-year-old female. Later this year we are relocating to Australia. The long journey, along with a likely move into a busy household with young children, wouldn’t be right for her — so we’re hoping to find her a child and pet-free home where she can feel settled and loved. Pip is affectionate and enjoys company, particularly sitting on your lap or curling up at the end of the bed. She has spent most of her life with outdoor access but is also comfortable indoors and uses a litter tray when needed. She’s small in size and in good health. Her slightly puffed lower lip gives her a unique and endearing look. If you’re looking for a calm, cuddly companion, Pip might just be your cat. If you have any questions or would like to meet her, please contact me on  07900 671 018 Thank you  Archie and the Sullivan Family
