Are you kidding me? He was probably the best player on the pitch and dominated our midfield. He is exactly what we need.

I agree with all that. I actually agree with the transfer comittee and having a few peoples input as it stops a manager going off on his own and buying players their own favourites from previous clubs and it prevents new managers coming in and wanting to get rid of what is already there and bring in all their own people and really believe in the whole Football development centre idea. I am absolutely certain that Les Reed is not the man to lead it though. Sacked by The FA, sacked by Charlton and labelled the worst manager of alltime. He's never played the game at a decent level and he has no management experience of any crediblity. Steve Gerrards comments on him make interesting reading as well. "To this day, I have no respect for Reed or (fellow coach) Derek Fazackerley. I was a young lad who had never been away from home to play football before. They didn't seem to understand that not everyone can board a plane, settle in a strange hotel far from the family they love, and find it easy. In fact they made me feel like sh*t. My homesickness worsened whenever I was forced to be in their company. I felt they could have shown more care and sympathy. They were always pushing me, always telling me to buck up my ideas"

No but we can look at a few FACTs. The club has been run at a loss every year since he's been here The corporate areas are virtually empty and the product is crap -we all know this is a significant revenue generator for clubs We are going back office staff, particularly corporate and ticket office managers quicker than Waynr Rooney goes through 60 year old hoares. Faliure to retain staff is sign that people aren't happy. Sponsorship - Saying global brands want to be attached to SFC and ending up with a local IT Firm Relationships with the media. - Particualrly the echo and the infamous banning of press, which was soon back tracked on. The amount of ex players that think he's a total c*nt - not nessasarily a business issue but an idication as to how he treats people. Taking out loans despite saying we dont do debt and slagging off other clubs for spending money they dont have. Poor treatment of fans. What successful business treats their customers with the distain that SFC seem to be? The mysterious stoppage of work at the training ground. - i'll call them rumours but strong suggestions the building company are yet to be paid for works done You can piece all of these things together and it doesn't paint a very good picture. As MLT said a few weeks back, he'll get away with it whilst we are winning and the fans will sing his name, but look a little deeper and things aren't all rosy behind the scenes.

Did some? All i could see and hear was fans signing Nigel Adkins name.
-
I checked last night and he has been sub 6 times this season. 3 times he came on with exactly 15 minutes to go, once with 23 minutes to go and twice not at all. However, i'm pretty sure the two games he didn't come on were when he was coming back from injury. I put a post on the UI last night before the game saying "will Guly come on with 15 to go" and though and behold, bang on 75 minutes who should be on the touchline!!!!
-
Yep i agree. The fans were brilliant last night. Very loud and great to see them singing Nigel Adkins name at the end.
-
He didn't buy it did he. He advised his mate too. And in all honesty most of us could see we were a good investment if you wanted to buy a club, premier league ground and infratructure, premier league sized fan base available at league one prices. Dont have to be a Swiss Banker to see that's a good deal!
-
Corporate areas. Expensive, crap and empty. Huge revenue stream for the club not being taken advantage of. Now lets hear how he is a great business man.
-
can you provide some evidence of this to back this up please.

So he won't know anyone that was at the club then or is now? -

He was at the club for a year when Cortese was here, so will know what he's like that we can be sure of. -
How many tactical mistakes is Adkins allowed? (Part 2)
Turkish replied to Dibden Purlieu Saint's topic in The Saints
And we all know who this will be. les Reed. -
He got his 15 minutes minimum again i see.
-
I wonder if people are still glad Cortese didn't take any sh*t from anyone when he was trying to sign Buttner. That £500k could have made a big difference to our survival chances.
-
I can believe there is something in this. He has now come on in the last 2 games with exactly 15 minutes to go and 3 times this season as well as on 67 minutes once. He's only been an unused sub twice and that is when he came back from injury!
-
What did i tell you? Bang on 15 minutes to go.
-
Guly will get his usual 15 minutes minimum, dont you worry about that.
-
Great counter attack to be fair. Gave it away again though.
-
Hero.
-
Apologies, i was too busy reading all the other sh*t on here i must have missed it.
-
You are finally getting the hang of what mongboards are all about.
-
Great point again from Neville regarding Schniderlins "effort" to block the goal. Something none of us picked up on.
-
How many crosses have gone straight at Foster.
