Hughes - too good for Fulham?

Not in my estimation. His obviously healthy ego seems to me to be based on quite flimsy evidence.

And now Villa are saying they don't want him.
Post-Hodgson Fulham is a very good club. I felt sorry for Hughes after the Man City affair, but he's just done to Fulham what City did to him.
Which part of his contract has he broken?
Press reports infer that he had as break clause allowing him to walk free after 12 months
Assuming that's true, what's the problem?
Fulham fans feel a bit cheated
because he basically said he would stay. There's nothing legally he has done wrong, but he verbally promised the fans he would be managing the club next season.
My point is not a legal one,
just that he obviously feels Fulham are not a big enough club for him. I say the jury's out on that.
He is Welsh
and there is a job vacancy in Cardiff. I will drive him there. Great player, pretty average manager.
He was happy...
to negotiate earlier in the season apparently and Fulham stalled so can't see he has done anything wrong.
We should remember that Fulham treated Micky Adams rather shabbily the second that Mr Moneybags appeared on the scene. They were an average third division team before they bought their way to the top flight so they shouldn't really bitch when it happens back to them.
As a Blackburn Rovers supporter
I would love him back. Randy Lerner ('he's a Randy Lerner, he'll get a hold on you believe it.' No? Just me? OK) is a fool if he doesn't hire him. Did wonders with us on no budget whatsoever.
Randy Lerner
Every driving instructor's dream.
He resigns
from a lucrative job offering European football because neither he nor his agent have been in any sort of discussion with any other possible employer "alledgedly"...yeah right!
Of course accordingly to his Agent, Kia Joorabchian, Hughes would be "honoured" if Chelsea were to approach him in the terrible predicament of finding himself unemployed, flogging copies of the Big Issue in the underpass at Fulham Palace Road. Jesus, and people look at the players for a lack of morals...
I raised an eyebrow
at the Chelsea link. I know he's an esteemed ex-player but Abramovich is not known for his sentimentalism is he? Hiddink, Van Basten, Mourinho, even Redknapp, yes. But Hughes? Can't see it.
