So are yoy saying that some the 'meeting" we've improved, just by coincidence.

Nothing to do with Adkins then?

Of course it is.

This.

So do we agree there was a marked difference today or not?

Unless you can provide proof this is true this can be filed under bullsh*t as well, no?

And they still wouldn't. It for a horrendous defensive error, who made the signings that led to tht balls up?

Did they ever look like scoring until that utter balls up? Marked change in approach since 'the chat' on Tuesday. Quite clearly Nige is dojng things his way. First impressions are it works.

He was a disgrace today. Two clear dives neither pens. Very sad to see and it Cost him at the end when he was fouled and didn't get the decision. Buck your ideas up Lallana son, it was almost embarassing.

Much better than the Southampton way it seem. We defend well, looked good as a unit and no Guly on the bench or Lambert substitution. Baring one defensive howler I was chuffed for Nige today. A good solid display, Swansea never looked like scoring and if he's been given the centre half he wanted they never would. Immediate improvement for all to see by letting the manager mange. Well done Nige.

Obviously injured or Adkins doing things his wayz

What is it about you fake Arabs?

I think Adkins does what he has to to keep the powers happy.hence the constant praise of the chairman 'working hard behind the scenes' during the summer. If he picks the team, the tactics,the formation, all the subs and transfers then he's incompetent and should be fired.

Only repeating what's in the news and the public domain, I'm not the one starting the rumours.

So you don't think managers are every economical with the truth and everything they say is 100% FACT?

No. I really DON'T want it to be the case. I want a club where the chairman isn't a lunatic dictator who bans anyone who says nasty things or questions his decisions. Where fans are treated with respect not disdain, where there aren't constant rumours and speculation that the manger is being undermined. I also want to like Cortese but the more I hear about the more that is impossible to do.

Great post. Pull down the Ted Bates statue, whats he done for the club since he died? Ban Lawrie Mac, what's he done for the club since he retired?

I can see this being the case.

We can bring it to people's attention and rather than people blindly backing the chairman and lauding everything he does as amazing. This is a football club, not a business or dictatorship, without it's fans it won't exist. We've already seen how NC views the fans by his banning of a Nick Illinsworth for daring to question a decision he had made. Some helmets praised this decision and said it was brilliant. Is it brilliant that a loyal fan over 40 odd years is banned from buying a season ticket because he posted on a fans forum that what the club had done was wrong? Some people continue to ignore these FACTs and dismiss rumours but put it altogher and it doesn't make a good picture.

As with all good dictators, Nick Nack doesn't care what the majority think, but that doesn't mean we should remain silent. Did anyone in before the 90s ever believe Ceausescu would be overthrown or the Berlin wall would come down?

Thats it, focus on Guly. What about all the others pointsa. If you 100% beleive Adkins then all I say is true and he iss totally incompetent and should be sacked immediately, shouldn't he?

Crusade? It's an Internet forum!!

Well if you believe Adkins 100% like some seem to he has basically wasted £30m in the transfer market on players in the wrong positions with no premier league experience, failed to address the key areas in the side that needed strengthening, something he said he would be doing as a priority. He is tactically inept, makes bad substitutions at the wrong time, leaves our best striker and possibly best player on the bench or takes him off at key times during the games, Has some blind faith in Guly, a player who has done little to justify this for a year, has a rotation policy for goalkeepers and doesn't know what his best team or formation is. If you believe this then I say we need to get rid now as this would make him the most incompetent manager in premier league history!

Morning Barry.

So is a Nick Gs one. But presumably as that is a postive thread that is allowed to stay?
