[iansums]

This is more exciting than the takeover last year!

[Saint_Ash]

If odds are to be believed (which they aren't) Adkins has just jumped to 1/2 again at skybet. I reckon he's saying he had an interview but has heard nothing more as we're still going through the interview process.

The La's excellent...

[Appy]

All i'm getting is the song `There she goes`.

 

Sign that Adkins is off?

[wild-saint]

http://www.thisiss****horpe.co.uk/sport/Uncertainty-deepens-Adkins-future-S****horpe-United/article-2626281-detail/article.html - seems its still on

[Lord Duckhunter]

Future oop in the air.

[Appy]

The ball is in our court then.

[the wedge]

'Remains a possibility'

 

'Negotiations still continuing'

 

'All are united that it has to be on the terms of the club (S****horpe)'

 

'Got an hour's sleep last night.'

[del boy]

"Remains a possibility that he could still be happening - negotiations ongoing. Has to be on right terms for Scunny. NA had one hours sleep last night. Seems to be leaning towards him joining the south coast club etc"

[CanadaSaint]

"Adkins says it can still happen but it has to be on the right terms for the Club (Scunny)."

[stug76]

"leaning towards joining the south coast club"

[buctootim]

Interview with Adkins at 5.25pm

[Appy]

I wish i got on the 14/1 that Adkins drifted out to earlier.

 

They seem worried.

[CanadaSaint]

The ball is in our court then.

 

No, it's "oop in the air".

[Saint_clark]

Sounds promising.

[jam]

Is it me or does it sound exactly like Solent except for a few different names?

[Lets B Avenue]

I wish i got on the 14/1 that Adkins drifted out to earlier.

 

They seem worried.

 

Perhaps NC and the Scunny Gobsh ite did. (Winky thing)

[buctootim]

Perhaps NC and the Scunny Gobsh ite did. (Winky thing)

 

lol. That might be how they agreed to pay for the compensation.

[Appy]

Perhaps NC and the Scunny Gobsh ite did. (Winky thing)

 

Perhaps, hardly helps my wallet though!

[Saint_clark]

I like the guy "duh duh duh"ing along with the tune.

[Saint Billy]

But do we know for definite that he has been offered the job?

[dune]

I like this station. Reminds me of Smooth Radio.

[Matthew Le God]

Anyone else get the feeling Adkins wants one last home game at S****horpe vs Bristol City this weekend to say goodbye and thanks for the 14 years he had there?

[Toadhall Saint]

Posted on another thread but Solent just said something along the lines of Nigel Adkins is in S****horpe discussing things with his coaching staff and his family.

[moonraker]

So the OS statement was pretty accurate, seems the Scunny head honcho was making a last ditch attempot to keep his man, I dont blame him.

[del boy]

you do the Okee Kokee and you turn around....

 

[Saint Fan CaM]

So basically Adkins has not dismissed Saints then and still wants to join? And that tells us that he wants us more than we want him perhaps and that NC is the white man in the negotiations - the Scunny Chairman is looking a bit unprofessional frankly.

[Saint Fan CaM]

It doesn't tell us that. It tells us negotiations are ongoing.

 

Don't be thick - that's exactly what it tells us if the negotiations are on-going. If Adkins felt NC had been unreasonable or unprofessional then he could have said "no thanks". The fact he still wants the deal to go through says everything we need to know about who has been professional in all this and they don't come from Scunny.

[dune]

Latest feeling at Radio Humberside is that Nigel will join us tomorrow. Just said so on the news.

[JonnyLove]

Has Rudi signed yet?

[surrey1saint]

Latest feeling at Radio Humberside is that Nigel will join us tomorrow. Just said so on the news.

 

SSN say offer has been withdrawn!

[SO16_Saint]

SSN say offer has been withdrawn!

 

THe man from del monte say yes

[surrey1saint]

Think we will have to wait to see what is said on the OS!

[surrey1saint]

SSN say offer has been withdrawn!

 

S****horpe saying Adkins is staying?!

[Liquidshokk]

He likes repeating himself!!!! and saying "would be fair to say..."

 

and talking about himself in third person??!?! "Nigel adkins may leave now or in the future"

 

Never trust a man who does that lol

[saint_stevo]

I actually love how Cortese won't play games

[Liquidshokk]

Lol... talk about avoid the questions....

[Badger]

so what has he said???

 

Can someone summarise it??

[Lord Duckhunter]

He keeps saying everything should be private and confidental, was that a dig at their Chairman. He kept saying it.

[scotty]

so what has he said???

 

Can someone summarise it??

 

He may be leaving scunny or he may not. If he does, he may come here or he may not.

[Liquidshokk]

Not a lot. He has expressed a strong interest in making the move but has to be done in the right way. He avoided commiting himself to anything concrete but sounds a certainty to me. He isnt particularly easy to listen to though with his repeated phrases and talking about himself in third person all the time. cringe.
