... not that their appears to be much of it at St James' Park at the moment.
Owner Mike Ashley who has made a catalogue of errors since his arrival at the club has proved his arrogance this week by allowing 2 players with potential to leave amid claims of a pay rise for some of the better paid players.
Hughton told The Journal;
"I don't know how long I will be in charge for. It could be three days, a week, two weeks, three weeks, I'm not sure.
My job will be to make sure that the squad is properly prepared, to begin work on pre-season and begin a good programme that gives us a chance of doing what we want to do - getting back into the Premier League.
As regards anything else like bringing in players, that is not my responsibility at the moment. At some stage someone will come in and take over from me."

The man is completely out of his depth managing. Bringing Kinnear back in would be better for the team, though it might kill the man!
