Chris Hughton

What a fantatic job he's doing at Birmingham. Top of their Europa League Group and with the 3 games in hand, only 3 points off the play off places. That's all after the upheaval that's been going on at Birmingham and losing all their best players.

Just imagine if he'd come here to work alongside Jol as was mooted in the summer? I think he's an excellent man manager and we wouldn't have any of the rumblings from the dressing room if he was here.

Good luck to him as he kept his counsel after doing a great job at Newcastle and then getting kicked out.

...another fan of Chris here, I like his style and he gets his teams playing football. What happened at Nookassel was a disgrace. It would have been interesting to see if he could have got the magpies to their current heady heights, but I think he will become a 'big' manager in his career, maybe even England one day...

He has beaten and drawn a very competitive Club Brugge. Moreover, they deserved every point they got in those two games (and should have gotten two more). I am not following the Championship but their performance yesterday was class...

There's no reason why he shouldn't be first on the list when the next Prem manager is sacked. He should have a long and storied career as a top-flight manager.

I don't think he'd leave even IF a premier club came knocking ... after being dumped on the way he was I believe he'd show loyalty to Birmingham and take them back up ... seems a decent bloke.

He's a good coach and that is why I wanted him brought on as an asst here with our club.

[SHADY1]

he is a good coach and thats why he felt he didn't need to be anyones assistant...

Alan Pardrew doing a much better job having been made to sell the crown jewels.
