Pardew is gone,unfortunately.
But i always felt under him we were moving in the right direction and we were a big fish in a small pool.
We were more often than not expecting a win against the oposition as we were getting results.
In my opininon we are and will remain a mediocre league one side whilst under the tenure of Adkins.
I truly hope i am wrong and Adkins makes the best of what he has got,just like Pardew.
The blind faith that some people had in stating what an 'inspired',excellent' aquisition when Adkins was put in place was,to me,way over the top.
All based on what he had done at another club,two promotions and one relegation, with no pressure on his shoulders,little expectation and with players with little pedigree and ego's.
Well.he could not be further from his comfort zone if he tried.
I am amazed how many seem to post 'as fact' that he will take us forward.
The furthest he will take us is possiblly out of this league,shortsighted appointment and not for the long term.
The manergerial revolving door will be in operation again soon,imo.
I don't claim any of the above to be fact,just opinion,those who oppose my opinion...thats what you should base your blind faith on also.
