Richard Hughes

[USCherry]

On a more important note. Who are we going to replace him with? He has been responsible for many a good player coming to us of whom may not of joined us if it wern't for Hughes.

Are you just fishing? Ok I'll bite. R&R I hope they appoint you

 

[USCherry]

I wonder if they will bring in someone from the good ol US of A. The first PL soccer operations manager

 

[Sorry Roger]

Newcastle are my bet

Doug Freedman is reportedly about to leave his job as Crystal Palace’s sporting director to become Head of Recruitment at Man Utd. I can see why Palace might be interested in Hughes though I am unsure about the other way round.

Being multilingual is important these days if we are looking abroad to attract potential purchases. Richard Hughes has that attribute, I'm not sure Franno has.

 

[Garbo]

Hughes himself must have been inexperienced when he first took the job?
I don’t know what attributes Simon Francis has for the role, but IF he gets the job then someone in the hierarchy must have seen something in him?

Newcastle are my bet

That would be my guess especially, as I understand it, he and Eddie have a very close relationship.

 

[DJ]

None of us know how much of the recruitment is down to Hughes personally but I’m pretty sure that he will be acting on advice from others who are most likely still going to be here.

Unless they go with him?

I thought our Hughes despiser said his inside guy said they'd never work together again

I think that was Tindall but there again, it could have been both.

Great news. One down, one to go. Getting out before we can’t sell some of his average players and fall foul of FPP. Sharp….

Are any of those average players the ones that can't shoot that somehow scored at the weekend?

Careful Neil, you’re in danger of being invited to deliver the key speech at his farewell dinner…

The buck stops with Bill Foley sohe must be prepared to back his judgement.

Will this vendetta carry on at whichever club Hughes ends up at? Because clearly he's heading for another role

So Foley didn’t agree to signing Sinisterra permanently after the close of the transfer window, Hughes did without the go ahead knowing we would get done for FFP.
According to you, we can’t sell some players that your antihero chose and we are doomed.
That’s a fact is it?
Or you’re just hoping to save face. Sad!
