Err, yeah thats kind of my point, in Adkins 4-3-3 system that he chose and is desperately trying to adhere to he can only play one striker, but we've signed two, both of which should be behind Lambert in the pecking order, meanwhile we've got one average Premier League centre back and two championship ones to fill our 2 positions there.

If you're going to look at it like that you could say if Strachan hadn't left wed never have appointed Sturrock which lead to our revolving door management policy, which lead to relegation, which lead to admin, it's Strachans fault we went into admin. Nothing to do with Wilde and co spunking £7m we didn't have up the wall.

a private toilet. That was on here a few weeks back. Only one person is allowed to use it.

Not really. As i said above, if we'd have averaged his points per game over the whole season wed have stayed up. The damage was already done by not improving the team and appointing Sturrock and then Wigley. Funny how people blame Redknapp when it suits them and blame Rupert when it suits them.

Oh sh*t sorry, i forget about a £100k loan fee for a player that never played for us!! The point was, was Redknapp the reason we went into administration, like the poster i replied to was implying.

very good!

I'm a telesaleist extrodinare in the Paper and ink industry, my career is well documented on here as a lot of people are jealous of it. I was working from home today though.

massive :lol::lol::lol:

IIRC Adkins said the week before we signed Yoshida that we wouldn't be. This is from memory so dont ask for me to provide links or quotes as i cant be arsed to trail back to August to find it. Some input!

I Like it. Shouldn't it be 'the man without the silver spoon' though?

We should just back the chairman and sing the song FFS. Cortese woooh wooh He comes from Italy He really rates Harry Back the chairman, he's not got much wrong so far you bunch of agenda ridden mugs.

IF they find it and i am made aware i shall start another thread, it's worth the risk of an infraction point for this.

The same ones who say Allderyce is a sh*t cluessless manager probably.

i dont know. As i understand it, it was still missing last night.

Have Bournemouth and West Ham gone into admin shortly after he left? I dont recall this, remind me. As for us, it wasn't Redknapps fault we went into admin, he spent £90k when we got relegated and his only major permenant signing in the PL was Quasie. As for Pompey, are you really putting that at his door and not the fake owners, arms dealers, money launderers and so on? Oh no, its all Redknapss fault, lets ignore the fact that most of the signings he made were sold at a huge profit.

Not forgetting the goalkeeping situation where Adkins again said he wanted one or two, he got one from L2 and then the panic freebie of Boruc when it soon became apparant we had f*cked up that area as well. Meanwhile £10ms worth of strikers sits on the bench most weeks.

So they just happened to pick on a thread which was blocked yesterday afternoon about a missing spoon and decided to make it a story did they?

Are you alright NickG? Do you think you should have a puff on your inhaler to calm you down a bit?

Yep, the echo report every thread that appears on this spaz board.

We also had the longest summer break in years so it's not like time was an issue. I just find it an incredible coincidence that last season we gaffed and missed out on a load of targets when trying to sign a centre half and got a last minute panic and exactly the same thing happened this year.

What we do know is that Adkins said in July he was looking for two centre backs to improve the team, he got one on the last day of the window. He said this in July. We also know Les Reed in in charge of recruitment and all scouts and recruitment people report to him, he has said this himself. So there is a huge disparity between what Adkins got and what he wanted. For this reason, i do not believe that Adkins is to blame for our current situation. he wanted defenders to improve the team, he said it was our prority. He didn't get them and we are paying for it. So before Adkins is sacked, Cortese needs to look at Reed. If Cortese backs Reed over Adkins then he has let the Adkins, the club and the fans down.

We'd have stayed up on goal difference.

The myth that he's a sh*t manager simply isn't true. And as i said, if we'd have averaged his points tally over the season we'd have stayed up. ie The damage was already done.

So Les Reed carries the can for that then.

Dave Im not asking people to look into a crystal ball. I'm asking in the current situation where it seems to be a case of when and not if he goes and with the pressure he is under. Is his job tenable in people on this spaz boards opinion. Which is what an internet forum is for is it not?
