JoCo85 0 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Very surprising, not gonna please the English contingent. Hopefully will knock the wind out their sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bias 3 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Sounds harsh but I hope they snowball down the league now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Would love McDermott to get sacked and have Adkins replace him. Now I know how Aeris feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Simon Peach@SimonPeach This is why #SaintsFC fans love Nigel Adkins. Here's the message he left, thanks to @Cornsy69. Positive to the end: What a guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally 0 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Strange decision but the same Saints fans who are in uproar are the same who were delighted when Cortese got them out of the shit and got back to back promotions. Can't have it both ways and sadly these days if you want owners splashing the cash you have to face the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33820 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I remember being at the Dell when Le Tissier scored those two goals that SKY wanked over for years. (Yes I'm still bitter as we were the better team that day). They had an organised fan protest to sack their manager Ian Branfoot, that day. Don't think they were complete shite at the time. Wonder what he thinks of the fans loyalty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17642 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 1934: Southampton have also confirmed that three of Nigel Adkins' coaches have been released as Mauricio Pochettino looks to finalise the make up of his backroom staff. Assistant manager Dean Wilkins and first-team coaches Andy Crosby and Jim Stannard have left the club. They have been replaced by Jesus Perez, Miguel D'Agostino and Toni Jimenez respectively. All three coaches worked with Pochettino during his time in charge of Espanyol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Looks like he's off to Reading. Fantastic appointment by them longer term as I really rate him. Might see a resurgence in Guthrie too as Adkins encourages the kind of football that Guthrie thrives on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might see a resurgence in Guthrie too as Adkins encourages the kind of football that Guthrie thrives on. Agreed, nice to see him being picked up again and hope he makes it back up (I don't see him avoiding relegation). Would be funny if he pulled them up and Southampton went down though.

mincepie 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 He did very well at Southampton so should get another job. Good luck to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1260 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Too late for Reading though imo. Hope they stay with him when they go down as I'm sure he'll do well for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Finally a manager who should know what he's doing. Should've brought him in the moment he got the heave ho from Southampton though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2207 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Was surprised he got the sack at Soton.....I hope he gets time to build something at Reading, most managers seem to get bugger all time these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33820 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Adkins always looks like he should be a red coat at Butlins, (especially with his posh-ish scouse accent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
