I am more than happy to stand by what I have said. If some of you think he is the right man for the job, that's fine by me. I will NOT change my opinion of him by being bullied or ridiculed. I hope you are right and that he does do the job for us, he won't, but I hope he does. How long should we give him do you think?

Oh come on Shefford. Respect to you for holding your views but you're not being bullied ( though maybe slightly ridiculed :) ) .
And in answer to your question, I would give him a season at least.

Monday morning.
What may hold up his departure is the fact that TF went out on a limb sacking NW
and bringing MH in. Does he have the stomach to be quite so radical again?
Will TF/Board consider it an admission of failure on their part and delay making a decision?

If they are reading this forum, my message is simple, do it now, get the pain over with and give a new appointee adequate time.

MH has had a go, no hard feelings.

If they are reading this forum they must think we are the most fickle fans in the league

Don't think TF will! Probably till Xmax and rightly so, but if we are in and around the relegation zone and there's not been much improvement in performances by then I think he'll go!
Long time till then though and we need some stability.

My support for Hughes?! It comes from being a lifelong Qpr supporter who has seen the good, the bad and the ugly.

Hughes took over a team that was fractured and heading towards relegation, he brought in some good players and despite some of those players trying their best to screw things up with a hatful of red cards, he still kept us up by the skin of our teeth.

He continues to buy some quality players, the like of which would never have joined under warnock. But the fact remains we've had 3 teams in the space of a year, but the new team has only played two games, 2!!!! If anyone thinks that a team should be playing like brazil after 2 games need to take a look at history and see if there are any teams brought together who have performed after 2 games.

But having been a fan for so many years, I remember what it was like going from a poor team to a winning team. Under venables, Jim smith and Gerry Francis, it all took time and we reaped the success of those managers having time to build a team. But back then fans tended to support the team come what may. If a player played badly, you groaned, but you still supported them and cheered that bit harder to give them confidence. Yet we seem to have acquired fans that seem to think that in 5 years from being close to liquidation we now deserve to be challenging for the top places after 2 games with a new team.

It doesn't matter if we only sign 1 player to go in to the team, that 1 player needs time to settle, let alone all the players we've signed. So it will take time, but it all counts for nothing if we get rid of the manager after 2 games. What do we get then? A new manager with a squad full if players who bought in to MH way of thinking and now a new manager who will have to rebuild, yet again. Where would that leave us? Better off or back to the days under briatore where a team of good players were heading down the league at a rate of knots?

Good job Man Utd didn't sack fergie after his first season when he'd spent an unheard of amount buying all the best players, who were languishing in the bottom half of the table and nearly knocked out of the cup by 3rd division opposition. He wouldn't have got his knighthood after winning everything. Why? Cause the board stuck by him and the rest is history.

So before calling for the bad times again and sacking managers at the drop of a hat, grow a pair and look through history to see if Rome was built in a day.

As much as I'm a long way off being convinced that Hughes is up to it tactically, I agree he should be given time.
That's an excellent post Lone!

Then what happens at Christmas Col ? Back to where we started, if some on here get there way with 'Honest 'Arry' in charge, new players in, MH's old players out. And the press et all laughing at us for sacking yet another manager. It all becomes far too tedious and beyond a joke.

Your last statement is spot on........stability is what we need.

Didn't say it is what I'd do mate....but I think TF will if that's the position!
 
Also.........it's a tough choice for the board. Obviously they want stability....but they sure as hell don't want to be relegated!!
 
see where we are in december before jerking the knee,don't forget the squad is being rebuilt not dismantled,and skegness wasn't built in a day.
