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?

Yep. Took Spurs into the champions league for the first time ever. Won Pompey their first major honour since the war. Took West Ham to their second highest league position ever. Took Bournemouth into the 2nd flight for the first time ever. A truely sh*t manager with a horrendous record of turning decents sides into mediocre ones.

i'd just like to add that the missing spoon was taken very seriously by powers inside of St Marys.

this my view on it. I cant believe he would just stick to 4-3-3 considering his success in changing shape to suit the opposition.

Well in that case he has gone down massively in my estimations for persisting with a formation that we dont have the players to play effectively and isnt working.

He didn't talk in Adkinspeak when he was on about picking the players and living and dying by his selection. Dont know why he didn't include formations in that as well if he believes in it so much.

'We will play 4-3-3' HTH

So actually if we'd average his points per game over the whole season we'd have stayed up. Another anti Redknapp myth quashed,

He didn't say that though did he. he said he was adhering to the process at the football club, Why not just say he loves 4-3-3, thinks its the best formation in the history soccerball and he believes its the best option for us?

Is NC there??
