Fence. He hasn't inspired since coming in but I'd like to see what kind of squad he can assemble in the summer before giving him the chop.

Let's judge him after a few games next season when he's had the chance to bring his own players in.....but if one of them is Leon Best, then we'll give him a shoeing before that

Fence, needs more time, but so far its been pretty crap and his signings have not exactly set the world alight (Kayal excluded)

Fence - mainly because Sami didn't do any better. We seem incapable of scoring lately.

We need somebody to build from scratch. May as well be him.

Its not easy coming in halfway through a season. He has only brought in had time to bring in two players, one of which is our best player and one our worst!

All you can do coming in that late is batten down the hatches and stop us conceding - which he is done. If the rest of the squad is so underpowered up front we can hardly blame Hughton.

We have lost our last 3 or 4 matches and scored 1 goal in ten hours, how is that bettering down the hatches and what from that set of results makes you think he deserves more time.

So many others manage to turn inherited squads around. He has had almost half a season-that is plenty of time to at least give us some indication that things are improving. They're not! I was disappointed when he was appointed-even more so now.

In - not even up for consideration. I feel the prem league manager merry go round has left some of our fans unattached from reality...

Judge him after a whole season next year. Unless we're in a similar position to where Hyypia left us and he has to go at xmas...

Four. Kayal, Best, Carayol and the other 'Boro bloke.

He has stopped us conceding as our fullbacks don't wander as much. Thats the battening down of hatches. If you brought in Guardiola half way through a season he wouldn't be able to do much with our awful squad. That is not Hughton's fault. He is marginally better than Hyypia but you need to let him have a pre-season and a clear out. If CH goes soon we will become one of those revolving door clubs.
