Legod Third Coming Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 Seems that although I for one was pretty uninspired by the selection of Adkins, we got a lucky escape when Senor Cortese swept Micky Adams' CV into the bin because he was unlucky (that's an Office reference for anyone who hasn't seen it).... Shame, I was looking forward to another trip to Sheffield next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twopintsnilnil Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 I always wanted Adams to be a success after doing so well for us, and at one time would have loved to have him back as manager. Sadly have to agree with Legod though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deppo Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 Agreeing with Legod is indeed very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Fry Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 To be fair, he has had a successful career. I still think he is the only manager to get promoted from all three divisions with three different clubs. He was genuinely successful at Brighton, Fulham and Leicester. Seems to be one of those managers that have lost their mojo, but his appointment at Sheffield United was a homecoming, he is a lifetime Blades fan so had a bit of romance to it. It's a real pity he seems to have completely guffed it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 It could be worse, they could've appointed Megson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richie Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 He's done well at all his other clubs I think. Must have been tough at Fratton yesterday, which fans hated him more!!!?? Was on Sheff Utd message board last night. **** those boys are all slitting their wrists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintNeil90 Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 Whats happening at Sheffield United is not Adams fault. No manager this year has managed to get them consistent. I know you will all point to the stats saying they havent won under him etc etc BUT they actually start the game very well but as soon as they concede all their confidence is shot and they get nervous. It a similar situation to when we got relegated. Played some good football, couldn't score then soon as we conceded we were cack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 Totally ridiculous to suggest he would not have been successful here. Do you not follow football on a regular basis? Are you totally aware of the situation at Sheffield United? Many, many managers have been very successful at one club but at another club it just does not work out. Surely you have not forgotten Redknapp, and, to use a current example that you are surely aware of, Roy Hodgson. There are so many obvious examples though that I am wondering why I am bothering to make the point. Good luck, Micky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck, Micky. many examples of how right you are, many managers are right for some clubs but wrong for others, strachan was great here, i doubt if coventry or boro fans would have the same opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 tbf, its about time Sheff Utd got what was coming, they havent been playing well for ages, just theyve seemed to grind out results, but i think the older guys in their team are now past it, and havent really bought very well pre adams.....saying that, he should still be doing better than he has done.

Tac-tics Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 I went to the game at Krap Nottarf, we took all our mini soccer for the day and to be honest and fair. Sheffield United looked like a Sunday league side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
