Absolutely bang on.

but you could say the same about Pardew, took a team that had underperformed for 5 years, built a new team won a cup, decent FA Cup run would have got play off but or a 10 point handicap whilst at Saints that in the circumstances is a succesful season. You could argue he overachieved at West Ham with a cup final and 8th place finish and got them and Reading promoted. I think and hope Adkins is a sucess but there are no guarentees, just look at Strachan at Middlesborough. It's a good start, but if anyone thinks, like saintscottofnortham that he can be judged as a success after 6 games then it is foolhardy.

I am neither agreeing or disagreeing if Pardew should have been sacked, we are where we are. IMO NA is doing a good job so far and long may it continue, he has made an instant impact, but then a lot managers experience a honeymoon period where things go well for a time. Alan Perin at the skates, Juande Ramos at Spurs all had great starts but are regard as up there with the worst managers in their clubs history. To say NA is a roaring success and the Jesus Christ of football management after 4 weeks is foolish.

Adkins is better qualifed academically than Alex Ferguson, does that make him a better manager than him? From what i have seen of Adkins he does seem to be a good manager, the team are playing well and attractive football, but he has only been our manager for 6 games, no time to judge at all.

how can you say that after 6 games?

Err, no they dont.... The majority view seems to be that we would have got promoted under Pardew.

Bristol Rovers are on the same points as us and Swindon, who have recently beaten us twice, hardly dire. To win 4-0 against anyone in the same division is a great result. And you are wrong, people would have given a sh*t if Pardew was sacked before Bristol Rovers, as you can see from this thread, most people were happy with him.

my hands are like a bunch of bananas.

It has, there is a lot more energy in the midfield with him it, i really hope we can keep him.

No, f*ck um, if their statues are dull i dont want to read them.

it makes me glow with pride.

it is but the way we are playing now suits the players we have a lot better. Hammond & Seaborne look different player, it has helped having Lallana back as he is a big miss and Chaplow is a good bit of business and i hope he stays, it seems he wants to make the switch permenant. Pardew is a good manager and i really feel he would have got us promoted, it's probably to early to judge Adkins yet as most managers, (although not most Saints managers!) have a good run when they start at a club, but i feel he will get us promoted as well.

Yep thats right the most important thing in my life is to be the most popular person and the person that gets the most attention on an internet message board. Although it seems not everyone thinks they are crap as my last two threads have almost 300 posts between them

Nonsense, i have over 250 friends on facebook and that is after several culls, one only last week. See you know nothing about me ol' chum. Now rung along, someone needs you to teach then when to use a semi colon which'll suit your rock 'n' roll lifestyle.

bet you cant wait for this weeks OK to come out, you can find out all about Russell Brand, Kerry Katona and how much David Beckham pays for a sandwich.

why are you having a pop? It's a reasonable question to ask. It seemed after Rovers we were getting there and i fully expected us to get promtion under Pardew and now do under Adkins, but after 5 games of Adkins i like him and we are much more attractive to watch, i feel that the end result may well have been the same under either of them, but with Adkins it looks like we may get there in style, playing attractive passing football, which suits the players we have.

ohhh look at Mr Pedantic picking up on a typo to make a point, i take it you are one of the clowns that screams at the referee everytime he doesn't send of a player for touching on of ours. The fact you typed LOL afterwards is a give away to the type of div you are.

and Bale scored for Wales, basis of a decent side here........

Brighton are top and have a much better away record than Peterboro, who are consistantly incosistant.

i am glad you missed me x I have been working on customer site the last couple of days, fear not i have returned and normal service has resumed.

Why would be beat Brighton at home and only draw with Peterboro?

As we all know, any football related offences carry a higher sentance, given throwing a coin on a firday night warrant a fine, yet outside a football stadium gets you a year in the clink, what would happen if you are caught speeding on the way to a football match? Football related speeding should proportionally carry 12 months inside. Shoplifting from the club shop or football gear from any sports shop would warrant the same and football related fraud, maybe something like pretending to be a fan of another club or wearing the shirt of a club you dont support or nation you dont come from, would probably warrant death by firing squad.

brillant, that means people can eat and drink even more on a match day. I am sure the gutty f*ckers amoungst us will be delighted.

/\ Correct, it does sell more papers, but it is pathetic. An attempt to make it sound football related, even though it was miles away, commited by two blokes who they think are saints fans but not sure if they went to the game or not.
