On the plus side for Adkins - a team that can play a decent passing game. 2 promotions, the second of which was an outstanding achievement. Don't seem to have a problem scoring goals. On the minus - errors in all four games so far this season, both with tactics and substitutions. Zero points after 4 games. A fragile defence that aren't great at defending set-pieces (this should be drilled into them), we seem to persist with zonal marking which just isn't working. Difficult one to call. The fixture list has been terrible for the manager, to be fair. The main question I ask myself is will another manager get more out of our squad?

Seriously?

I've just posted this on another thread, but I reckon Adkins could be toast. Just the impression I got from his bbc interview.

He has reportedly turned down Villa and Liverpool. Dream on.

Adkins interview on Match of the Day sounded like he was begging for his job. I reckon he's toast. On balance he deserves a bit more of a chance, but we have a ruthless Chief Exec.

I blame Henry, the mild-mannered janitor. C*nt.

The man is an embarrassing c*nt.

Nor did Steve Kean at Blackburn, or Wigley for us. Your point being...

Whilst I don't agree with your opinion on Cortese and the Liebherrs' motivations, I do agree with you on his single-mindedness. I reckon there's a chance you could be right on a sacking.

He might bring Messi in January.

Uber fans on here who label anyone with a different opinion a bed wetter. I suppose it makes them feel hard. Sorry for the disjointed post. Sausage fingers on an iPad.

I'm on the fence in the manager's debate. The hysteria does make me laugh though. We used to go an amazing losing runs at The Dell, but always came up smelling of roses. But the rose-tinted brigade who say we always backed the team are talking out of their arses. I remember Chris Nicholl and his team taking terrible stick from the fans, as did the others. It seems like we have

You missed out Peter Reid!

He is well respected and trusted by the Liebherrs'.

I'm not saying whether it's right or not, but I don't think Cortese will take the chance of keeping Nigel. Very harsh, considering the excellent job he has done in the previous 2 seasons, but Nicola is pretty ruthless. If he has lost confidence in the manager, he will waste little time appointing someone else.

HTH? Cheers for that. I was being ironic. Way over your head.

Get a sense of humour.

You can add out of contract players to your squad, but can't have a squad of more than 25 players. I think...

I find it bizarre that anyone can come up with positives after a 6-1 defeat.

Anyone who thinks Adkins is not out of his depth at this moment in time is a c*nt.

They look hard as f*ck.

Never noticed Deppo and Bearsy on here at the same time....

Anyone who wants Adkins out at this moment in time is a c*nt.

Wow, an Aussie that can't handle a bit of straight talking. Can't say I'm surprised. Dude?

Thanks for the info. Sounds like an exciting prospect. His goal scoring record suggests he knows how to finish. Anyone prepared to judge him on the strength of 20 minutes against United is quite frankly a simpleton.
