Indeed.

We're already 3 point from safety this early on. This is a relegation battle already, with a set of player shorn of confidence.

Only one person has got us were we are and its not working for him.

Give him to end of November, and if no improvement then he has to resign. This gives a new manager to assess things in December and prepare for a january window.

Sorry Bryan as much as you were good for and had a good playing career maybe management is a step to far at this time.

No that's far to long to give Hughes and tbh he should have been gone today. We need someone in now to grab this squad by the scruff and get them playing again. There is ample time to go for a PO places and if things go well promotion, I think someone said theres 102 points still up for grabs??? We have players like Lainton and JJ to come back into the squad and ideally we can get a holding midfielder in on loan. Whats important though going forward is that Hughes, Darlington and Flynnn are nowhere near the club anymore.

I would hope that given it doesn't look like he is going before the weekend, that if we fail to BEAT Ebbsfleet he is shown the door immediately, along with Darlington and Flynn.

As for who chooses the successor, it will be likely its the same people again. But surely, they couldn't make another bizarre decision.... could they?

If they even look at an ex player with little or no management pedigree as the new incumbent then I think it would confirm they have no idea...

Success for me is promotion anything less if we are there abouts doesn't mean we have had a bad season or we should want to sack everybody in sight but 12 years down here is a long time and every season we miss out is another failure. Agree we seem to have decent players but non of them are consistent and we only play well in patches. Although Dibble is a good shot stopper there is at least one silly mistake and goal conceded in him every game he plays which puts us on the back foot before we even kick off.Would need a drastic turn in performance and fortune to get near the play offs now so think we can write this season off whether Hughes goes now or in a few weeks time but dont think we are bad enough to go down either way.

With the size and dare I say history of the club, as well as the potential fan base, then I would say that our natural level should be Level 3- in league one. Anything beyond this would be considered success imo.

A realistic redefinition of success right now would be winning the Tunnocks caramel wafer cup

‘A good shot stopper’ what utter drivel, come on you must know you’re talking rubbish there. Watch all the goals conceded this year and then come back to me and tell me he’s a good shot stopper, watch the goal on Saturday he still hasn’t reacted.

Whatever the board decide, like having a club?
