I think most people were objecting to you saying that this will cost us money WHEN it goes wrong. Fair enough you may not be confident that Adkins can carry on his success (though surely it is better to give him a chance.) but to assume that he is going to fail based on not a lot is a little silly. In quite a few areas I agree with you, but I also think that by getting us promoted, Adkins deserves a chance to see what he can do in the league above. It's really unknown territory for him as he's never been expected to go for promotion in this league so it should be interesting.
