Lock it then, it might speed up the forum!

Can't this be added to one of the other threads I'm getting dizzy

You're making the assumption this is down to NA. Sounds like an issue between clubs to me but then of course I am not ITK

Agreed lol. I can't see us withdrawing an offer over the sake of a couple of hundred £K at most. Still the first time we have seen our activity in either the transfer market or managerial market played out in public. NC won't be a happy bunny.

I would imagine it's no more than a detailed point of negotiation in the grand scheme of things but would be better if it was not played out in public. NC seems to be quite a 'character'.

I see what you did there.

I'm sure it will be confirmed that Adkins was our first choice.....funny that the one appointed is always the 'first choice'. Anyway good luck to the man. COYR

On the Echo now as well http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/8381139.Adkins_move_in_doubt/

It will be Friday, it's always a Friday...isn't it?

That's about how I see it too...

That Lallana fellow is still pretty useless I understand

OK let's remove the word 'exactly' from both our posts and then agree that he know's 'enough' to be able to comment on the state of the Club?

I'm sorry but if you don't think he knows exactly what is going on at the Club you are kidding yourself.

I'm sure he knows more about the Chairman than any one poster on here despite what the ITKers would have you believe. I don't agree with him going public on this but at the same time it would be foolhardy not to atleast listen to what he has to say. There is a significant ground swell against NC right now and there must be some substance behind it. Personally I find it a worrying time for the Club.

Sorry if already posted but there's a new article on SSN ref Adkins http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6364741,00.html ...reading between the lines I'd say he's definitely been talking to Southampton

Whatever happened to Friday? It always used to be Friday!

Maybe Reed is a candidate himself.....

SSN also reporting it to be this week with Howe and Adkins both mentioned http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_6362090,00.html

Sounds more than plausible.

I see McLeish has had a pretty significant bust-up with his Chairman so based on this 'fact' alone it is clear he is coming to St Marys...cough

I honestly expected us to announce a replacement within hours which clearly wasn't the case, maybe there was a last minute hitch with the candidate who was lined up or maybe it was unplanned (at that time) afterall

Sorry if this has already been posted as I haven't read all the posts but Martin Samuel wrote a short article in today's Mail that was quite scathing of Cortese to say the least. He pointed the finger to a text that NC alledgedly send AP after the Rovers game asking him why Guly only got 5 minutes, it would seem NC was behind the signing rather than AP. Anyway apologies again if this is old 'news'

I've hardly posted in months so I'm not sure if I should be offended or not lol! Blimey it's all going on with our little club isn't it!

I haven't posted for months but felt compelled to after hearing the terrible news. RIP Markus Sir you saved The Saints and will forever be in our hearts.

It's a shame he hasn't conducted himself in the same way as Paul Hart did in similar circumstances. Constant moaning and belly-aching about the 'woe is me' situation. Can hardly be an inspiration to an already demotivated bunch and now he has basically thrown his toys out of the pram. All very sad...but quite funny.
