  - The argument for keeping him last season was his record against the big sides (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 3, 00:26:22
  - IF we beat West Ham next weekend, we go above them, we could possibly go 14th. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 3, 00:24:36
  - Very worrying we've been comprehensively beaten by all of those teams already. (n/m) (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 3, 00:23:41

    - Yep in a way nothing should change after today (NCFC) - Yellalee, Nov 3, 00:07:31

        The good thing is, the crowd (up until today) has been largely onside (NCFC) - Yellalee, Nov 3, 00:27:25

we've spent 15 million on a couple of strikers who cannot hold onto the ball (NCFC) - thirsty work, Nov 2, 22:36:04
- We've signed 2 strikers who do their work in the box (NCFC) - wolfio, Nov 2, 22:58:13
- ...and strikers coming into the premier league (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:38:00
  - and how can they do that when they barely see the ball. (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:42:11
    - most lower mid table sides in the premier league don't score many goals (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:49:12
      - no teams score less than us. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:52:29

Bennett for Bassong next week? (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 21:56:59
- Awful man management to drop him at the time anyway (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 2, 22:12:36
  - He was *extremely* pissed off about it, to be fair. (NCFC) - mr chimp, Nov 2, 22:27:47
  - Like R Bennett last season, came in (on the Right Wing) and was great (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:26:49
- not likely to drop his captain I'd imagine (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 2, 22:02:13
  - Same with R Martin. Been mostly crap this season. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:11:14
    - We need a new right back, neither can defend anywhere near well enough. (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 2, 22:12:59
      - I'm ready for 3 at the back (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 2, 22:24:42
        
        Apart from against the top teams - we've conceded 2 in 5 games this season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:26:52
        
        Geez, I feel Russ has been terrible, different eyes I guess (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 2, 22:30:09
        
        I don't think he's been great either (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:32:26
        
        scored 2 in those same 5 games against shit sides as well... Woo Hooo (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:28:39
        
        well.. we're discussing the defence in this thread (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:30:51
        
        Just we can't score playing said system. (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:32:23
        
        not sure how changing to 3 at the back will make us more of an attacking force (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:34:14
        
        I wonder if this management team have any idea how to coach an attacking side (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:39:17
        
        do you not think there is an element that we have been found out? (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:44:14
        
        we have an almost entirely different squad to the start of 2011/12 season (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:50:54
- Hoots doesn't really drop players like Bassong though, does he? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 2, 22:00:19
  - he doesn't embrace change (NCFC) - dr fanta, Nov 2, 22:10:02
  - No. My Newcastle supporting mate said that he stuck with players when noone else could (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 22:02:53
  - it takes an injury (n/m) (NCFC) - matgore, Nov 2, 22:02:06
- Martin first on the chop block for me (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 2, 21:59:40
  - Howson is just lacks that creative edge. (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:30:13
- Hoots didn't sign Bennett so he won't play (n/m) (NCFC) - colincanary, Nov 2, 21:59:33
  - What a ridiculous statement. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Nov 2, 22:17:53
  - How do you explain Ruddy then or CAFU? (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 22:02:04
He isn't going to be sacked this week. Not a chance. (NCFC) - norway, Nov 2, 21:40:11
- Exactly the same position as you. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Nov 2, 21:50:08
  - and I'm also same as you both... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Nov 2, 21:58:50
    - But how long does it go on for? (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:00:33
      - if we win next week (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:16:24
        
        No it wouldn't. (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:20:30
        
        well.. we've had four games that were (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:23:29
        
        Yes I do. I expect us to beat Hull snd I expect us to beat (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:31:51
        
        so basically you think we should be challenging for 6th or 7th place? (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 22:35:14
        
        No. But I think we should be mid table and (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:40:27
        
        Sorry for the typing malfunction! (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:32:38
      - not really. besides, things can change, click into place, confidence grow (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 22:04:57
        
        You have to draw a line at some point (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 22:06:07
        
        I know where you're coming from, James (NCFC) - Huge Small, Nov 2, 22:43:55
        
        ^^ Finally, the crux of the matter. ^^ (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 2, 22:28:24
        
        Arganth comes out to defend the manager regardless... Just like in the old days. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:34:12
        
        Can you point to where I said that? (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 2, 22:50:37
        
        I agree, you do but I guess different folk will have different views on where that line (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 22:06:52
    - Just??! lol (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 2, 22:00:06
      - dog poo face (n/m) (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Nov 2, 22:15:16
- Sorry but its done. (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 21:47:21
- I'll eat my feet if he's sacked this week. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 2, 21:46:22
  - Just talk the 'lost the dressing room' stuff - speculation following poor performances (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 21:49:23
  - is that a promise? (n/m) (NCFC) - dr fanta, Nov 2, 21:47:28
- All depends on whether McNally feels he can upgrade (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 2, 21:45:14
  - True. It's less than 18 months that he last searched for a manager (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 21:46:48
- I agree. Chose 'C' earlier in the week & a tonking today by Man City hasn't changed that (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Nov 2, 21:44:02
- I also doubt it. But a failure against West Ham and that maybe it. (NCFC) - Pit, Nov 2, 21:43:55
  - Yep. (n/m) (NCFC) - norway, Nov 2, 21:45:41
- Surely lose 1-0 next week and he has to go? (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 2, 21:42:30
  - There is a good chance. (n/m) (NCFC) - norway, Nov 2, 21:44:45
    - what if we lose 0-1 but play really well and are terribly unlucky? (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 2, 21:50:49
      - I want us to win (NCFC) - duke of york, Nov 2, 22:01:41
        
        it does look unlikely right now, yes. It's natural to be pessimistic so soon after that (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 2, 22:06:51
- i think he's gone (NCFC) - matgore, Nov 2, 21:41:58
- Too late already Norway I'm afraid.... (n/m) (NCFC) - Taxi 4 Johnson, Nov 2, 21:41:21
I'm on my way home from the game (NCFC) - Waddockhunt, Nov 2, 19:47:20
- From what you say (NCFC) - Winged Eel Creosote, Nov 2, 19:55:42
  - No - you're twisting my words so that you can blame the manager (NCFC) - Waddockhunt, Nov 2, 20:07:12
    - Fair enough (NCFC) - Winged Eel Creosote, Nov 2, 20:09:26
      - And actually I like Hughton (NCFC) - Winged Eel Creosote, Nov 2, 20:12:05
    - what about the previous 30? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 2, 20:07:45
      - don't think we've had 30 managers (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 2, 20:09:01
        
        games (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 2, 20:11:01
  - Was thinking the same and by the way they are playing the Junction (n/m) (NCFC) - BSE Canary, Nov 2, 20:00:22
  - that game is the best example of players giving up on a manager (n/m) (NCFC) - earlydoors, Nov 2, 19:58:54
- Hughton bought most of those players and it's his job to motivate them. (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 2, 19:49:47
  - Who needs to be motivated playing at the Etihad? (NCFC) - Waddockhunt, Nov 2, 19:52:05
    - Well obviously he has signed a bunch of players who lack character (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 2, 19:58:28
      - lambert always looked at their character first (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 2, 20:00:15
        
        Yep (NCFC) - Waddockhunt, Nov 2, 20:08:55
        
        it reminded you of games we played when we were on the beach.... (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 22:21:36
        
        Once or twice is fine, but this type of implosion is regular under Hughton (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Nov 2, 20:17:08
    - these aren't a group just come from playing in the champ (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 2, 19:56:06

      - It is hard to work at 100% (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 2, 18:05:23
        
        That's a victim attitude, sorry don't buy it (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 2, 18:07:18
        
        Correct. Or find a different career/employer (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Nov 2, 18:12:21
So for all those who say a new manager... (NCFC) - ghost of hucks, Nov 2, 17:49:31
