That would put them on roughly £58 a week.

Completely forgot about that, good point.

Well I completely disagree. It's good to see someone sticking to their principles for once. As he has said, he wants to leave the club that gave him his big break with his "head held high".

You have no idea whether this is true or not.

That's the Grey Hulk. Whilst more intelligent - being able to speak for example - he was never as powerful as the Green Hulk.

Come off it. We all know that Pardew getting sacked had nothing to do with results and performances on the pitch. I'm sure that Cortese would have been more than happy to see us go up under Pardew, but his hand was forced by other events. What those are we'll probably never know.

Look on google maps, the huge grassy part just above their ground is all free parking on match days. Piece of p*ss to get to, and after the match it's a simple matter of walking out the turnstile and straight down the path.

Did you really have to ask?

The exact quote with regards to "wow factor" was that the appointment would "show that Cortese knows what he's doing". Now yes, this could have been interpreted as a big name appointment coming up. But I think this statement should be taken more at face value. Cortese has been accused in the past of not knowing what it takes to succeed in football, and you'd think that someone who was naive in what it takes to get promoted from this league would just go for the big name - Zola, Shearer etc - and assume they would succeed. However, by offering the job to Adkins, Cortese has shown that he knows what it takes to get out of this league. In short, he knows what he's doing. We've got exactly what we were promised.

I think that's fair to say.

The Merlin is friendly, although there is one Swindon bloke in particular who likes to arrange his "meets" in there.

For anyone who didn't bother opening the link.

Sums up what i've come to suspect over the last 24 hours - that we've got completely the wrong end of the stick with this guy.

The day before I think and yes, he sat in the stand. He hadn't even trained with the players so it would have been stupid.

Pearson WASN'T in charge for that Plymouth game.

Where did he say that?

Personally I think we've got completely the wrong impression of Cortese. All the negativity is coming from the media and the fans - you hear people in the game talk about us and they have nothing but praise for the way things are being run. Yes, he will make a few mistakes - the photographers ban, no instalment plans etc. but he is new to this. He will learn. From now on i'm going to get fully behind him.

The Howe thing was b*llocks, there is no way we offered him the job. IMO we never withdrew the offer for Adkins.

Why is it? Have you followed everything that went on today? Even Adkins has told his own chairman to shut up.

I still think we'll go up automatically.

What do you mean? Compensation for a manager is ALWAYS discussed after contract terms are agreed.

Even so badly edited that is still funny.

It shouldn't be, but everything about that is hilarious. From the bloke right at the start suddenly disappearing to the woman sat looking round calmly as she slides across the screen at the end.

How do you know? Not doubting your credibility, just curious.

It's because of the swear filter. Type out the c-u-n-t bit again.
