    on the basis that Ido not see live games and therefore my view is limited but as dear old Nicky saya enough is now enough OK we finished 9th last season but only because those below i
    us were worse
    IMO our problems started when Hughes got rid of Huthy He was probably then the best CB in the Prem and made ShawX look better than he was / is At least under TP we were hard to beat now we are there for the taking We seem slow sluggish and lack desire
    For me tbat is down to Hughes He may get angry at refs but in interviews has always got a glib answer for why we failed For me he could not motivate SFA
    Traditionally those who start as badly as us get cut adrift I forsee defeat at CP and about 10k to watch us lose to Hull
    IMO if Coates wants to protect his fortune he gets rid of Hughes now to give someone time to rescue us

    Hi there SIS, how are you and your good lady keeping old chum?

    Having a limited view is a godsend, losing is one thing but putting up no fight and getting trashed is another. The blaise attitude as you point out is totally unacceptable. Spot on re Huth, 3 transfer windows to get things right...nothing done.

    I honestly believe that he is doing to us what he did to QPR.

    Anyway SIS, all the best <cheers><cheers><cheers>

    ps heard from Potts ?

    Ive always said that Huth was a massive loss and didn't make sense to break up arguably the best pound for pound partnership in the league. Admittedly there were injury concerns but it appeared that Huth did not fit in with Hughes's plans.

    In relation to changes I'm not normally one to agree with a quick fire solution, but something just feels wrong at the moment. We have got a top 10 team easily and have made some decent business, but he starts every season not knowing his best eleven? The big issue however is that there doesn't seem to be any decent alternatives at the moment - we sort or missed the manager merry go round in the off season!
