  • I'll be stunned if Hughes isn't first man out the door this season.
  • Nah, Hughes surely, owners 'meeting to discuss his future' this week.

    Absolutely dire manager IMO, they all get found out in the end!
  • Find it sad and angry that people like mcdermott and adkins might get sacked

    Agreed, it is infuriating when this happens.

    However, I do get the feeling that these two will be OK if they get relegated. Madejski still has bit of a say at Reading and seems to be a relatively fair chairman.

    Adkins has done wonders at Southampton and I can't see him being the type to fall out with anybody.
  • One of the comments on that BBC article at the bottom:

    "He looks like the bear from Bo Selecta"
  • Find it sad and angry that people like mcdermott and adkins might get sacked

    Agree. WTF do the owners/Board expect when their team is taken up into the Prem? These guys deserve a chance to make it work.

    I can't stand Adkins as I think he is a smug prick but that doesn't mean he should get the push having taken them up.
  • I think Adkins and McDermott will be fine, barring a dreadful run of ten defeats in a row or something. Chairmen at their clubs both seem a bit more clued up than the usual mugs. How Hughes is still at QPR I'll never know. Geezer's as shit a manager as Bryan Robson but still keeps getting jobs.

    He's led Southampton to 2 consecutive promotions - it has to count for some loyalty towards him.

    Without Adkins, they could still be trying to get out of the Third Division.



  • Curbs and Arry .................shopping in Westfields white city just in case they get a call......Dowie on Sky saying Hughes should be given time as he is an experienced manager........no mention though that he is a good manager ...............and me thinks thats what they need ....he has made some terrible signings

    That bloke is a moron - surely you'd give time too inexperienced managers
  • Anyone know what Hughes' record as a manager is, in terms of P/W/D/L?

    Don't think so Oggy. Agree he has done a very good job but the club is minted and if it wasn't him it would have been someone else. He deserved a shot at it because of the good job he did at Scunny (if I remember correctly) and he took his chance well.

    Do they? I'd suggest they never do. They get sacked, get a big pay-off and then another club comes in for them and it goes round again. Clubs rarely look outside the 'usual suspects' when appoiting managers.

    I guess 'in the end' can take a while.
    I remember when the likes of Peter Reid, Harry Bassett, Dowie etc were getting every mid table prem/Championship job, but they got found out in the end and so will Hughes.
  • Sven-Göran Eriksson has made a very profitable career out of it!
  • QPR FC ‏@OfficialQPR
    Queens Park Rangers Football Club has today (Friday) terminated the contract of manager Mark Hughes with immediate effect. #QPR
  • Not much of a surprise really. Bet they get that other useless c**t Roy Keane in now! That would really destroy them!
  • Redknapp has gotta be nailed on surely?

  • Di Matteo in for the away game at Old Trafford? Nice start!
  • The only surprise is that it didn't happen on Monday.
  • I reckon Ukraine's interest in Harry pushed their hand. I don't think for a second he wanted that job. Hughes can have no complaints, done an awful job there.
  • Would be interesting to see how Mark Bowen would do in a manager's job.

    Has so far followed Hughes around but maybe like Steve Clarke and Powell he could be a successful manager in his own right.
  • 'Arry will be announced but won't be officially in charge until after the United game, that way if they do pull off a shock result he can still be blabber on about it being something to with him.

    Was just about to post the same thing! Great minds...

    Ha, good one
  • Harry will keep Qpr up if he goes there.
