Thought his comments last week on Stokes were a bit off the wall as well. Maybe life in the Highlands is getting to him.

There's clearly a big rift between the manager and board at ICT. On more than one occasion Hughes has expressed his frustration at the lack of budget available to him, and this is the second time the club have come out talking about how they've backed the manager and this is the highest budget they've ever had.
It's well known Hughes wanted the Dundee Utd job when Mixu got it, and it looks increasingly like he's trying to work his ticket at ICT and getting his excuses in for their underwhelming performance this season. It seems to me like a parting of the ways might be on the horizon if someone wants to take the manager off their hands. The irony is, they probably can't afford to sack him!

Well they did not own us in the League Cup Quarter...
ICT, who cares what they do really.

It always seems that both manager & fans use the budget as an excuse for failure or a stick to beat the board with, hopefully what Leicister have done this season will stop managers bleating about budgets and kick that excuse into touch.
My impression of Hughes approach to management (despite his abilty to do a number on us) has always been "that if one throws enough brown sticky stuff at the wall some of it is bound to stick" rather than a good manager that considers and husbands his resources wisely. Give me JM any day.

I'd like to think that was a genuine trolling attempt from ICT because if it was it'd actually be quite a good one. However, I suspect it's probably just an automated league table that fails to take it to account the split!
