oh yes it is!

[del boy]

Anyone got 2+2 to equal 4 yet, or are we all still stuck on 5?

[Gingeletiss]

SSN just said that Saints have told them that they are talking about compensation. A bit surprised as I though that Saints no longer leaked any news.

 

They didn't, just sloppy stuff once again by sky. They more than likely, lifted it from the Adkins interview.

[Wycombe Saint]

Think we will get him but Wilkins will be in charge for Saturday. He seems like a intelligent, articulate man. With an obvious competent football brain

Hope he comes soon.

 

Are you Mrs Adkins ?

[Tokyo-Saint]

Speaks about himself in the 3rd person a lot in his interviews, doesn't he?

[RobM]

audio of Adkins press conference here:

It's fair to say Nigel Adkins talks in the third person a lot. Nigel Adkins thinks Nigel Adkins should sleep on it.

At least he wasnt entering a minor passageway

[Master Bates]

I wonder what the Adkins Diet's like.

[derry]

SSN saying we are near to agreeing compensation with Scun-thorpe

I wonder what the Adkins Diet's like.

 

Bastard. I was supposed to be the first person to make an Adkins Diet joke.

Tha actor Brian Rix? Fair play he's 86 and still up for action.

[RobM]

In all seriousness... everyone should listen to that interview. Apart from that fact that Nigel Adkins, in fairness, thinks Nigel Adkins thinks this is a great football club in fairness Nigel Adkins... he does come across very well.

Nigel Adkins is a brand, we do the same here at jamesfp1.

[Tokyo-Saint]

Tokyo Saint thinks that in fairness Nigel Atkins thinks that in fairness Southampton football club is a great football club and in fairness is very professional. However Nigel Atkins knows that to be fair Nigel Atkins is professional and is moral and must do the right things by both football clubs. The most important thing though is that Nigel Atkins must get some sleep now. Nobody told Nigel Atkins that Nigel Atkins could fly to Southampton to meet with Southampton football club or that it is possible for Nigel Atkins to sleep when Nigel Atkins is a passenger.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Mmm, I have got to say after reading the transcript of his interview Adkins has gone up considerably in my estimation of him. He seems to be a likeable, intelligent and principled bloke who clearly has got a huge desire to manage Saints. For that and the fact that it looks pretty odds-on certain he'll be joining us, he's gonna get my full and unconditional support from this point on. Unless it's MoN...then all bet's are off. (;

Hey Fitzhugh, their cannot be that many on this forum that know what you mean by that, apart from me of course because I do remember Mr Rix, although I hasten to add that I was just a kid at the time.

[corsacar saint]

NA comes has always come across as articulate,decent and honest,and his side play excellent attacking football,whats the problem with that.[Apart from the fact we are struggling to agree compensation]. I hope he joins us.

I'm on my way to help sort her out. Can you tell her to move well away from the sick though?

[jasoneuelllfanclub]

Adkins comes across very well in his interview. Shows so much enthusiasm for Saints, makes a change.

 

That was a criticism of AP in that he would often talk in riddles and many interviews came across unclear. I always got the impression he tried to give little away as possible in interviews which may be why he didnt always make much sense.

 

It seems Adkins is open and honest which may not be what NC would like! NC should employ someone from MI6 to keep everything in house lol

[Dalek2003]

Adkins is not a good appintment if it happens. Hoddle would have been much better.

[sidthesquid]

I would have been delighted with Adkins, but what a fecking fiasco. Cortese is looking more and more like a boy in a man's job. Even Rupert would have got the fine print sorted first.

What do you mean? Compensation for a manager is ALWAYS discussed after contract terms are agreed.

He turned us down...he heard that a few sang a song about him at the Rochdale game and rang the chairman and said if 100% of the crowd don't back me I am not coming.

[Miltonaggro]

I've heard she goes down like the Titanic!

 

Sorry...

[Dr Who?]

If I was Adkins I would say sod off... what a shambles. If Adkins does not take it the job then what? Brown.

[del boy]

Just seen Kate Winslet being sick by the Shield and Dagger in Shirley! Fact!

 

Pre-interview nerves... probably doesn't realise that NA has already got the job - but then does NA? ....does NC, and who's is that boat parked outside the Grand Harbour?

Are you sure it wasn't NC who bottled it and made a decision to appoint the under 12's southern area coach from plymouth instead ?

[Saint_clark]

If I was Adkins I would say sod off... what a shambles. If Adkins does not take it the job then what? Brown.

 

Why is it? Have you followed everything that went on today?

Even Adkins has told his own chairman to shut up.

Yes but since this morning and the SFC coming out and saying that they have withdrawn the offer and would carry on interviewing, and even after that offer the job to someone else only for him to turn it down. After all this to go back to Adkins seems wrong to me. All I was saying was if it was me I would not be impressed.

OOps sorry GF problem there. Think she's a bit upset I googled the above and seems she spotted Angeline leaving my bedroom earlier. Make of that what you will with regard to the managerial situation.

 

Will be back with y'all shortly, once I get this large kitchen knife out of my lower regions

Did any of this actually happen though or is this just more speculation? I've been checking on and off all day but havn't followed as closely as others so just curious to know.

Well who knows anymore mate. does not seem like anyone knows the true anymore. This is what has come out today from 3 different clubs about the job. I am lost and I do not think anyone knows 100% what is the truth anymore. This is better than Eastenders.

[Dr Who?]

My bet.

 

What odds?

The Howe thing was b*llocks, there is no way we offered him the job.

IMO we never withdrew the offer for Adkins.
