bjk Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 If we draw at Coventry thus getting a replay Lambert will only miss 1 league game.
S-Clarke Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Yep. the replay will be the week before the Leicester home game.
Wade Garrett Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Do a deal for a draw and a Coventry win in the replay. They'll be happy with the extra revenue, and we'll minimise the loss of Ricky.
bjk Posted 2 January, 2012 Author Posted 2 January, 2012 Yep. the replay will be the week before the Leicester home game. Thanks,here's hoping for a draw then
SaintRichmond Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 If we draw at Coventry thus getting a replay Lambert will only miss 1 league game. Clutching at straws already Our current "Form" is pretty close to Relegation form We have not been playing the "pass across the ground" game that wore down the opposition Something IS wrong in the camp (dressing room) Forget todays sending off. I said long ago that our away form would prevent us going up. Brighton had a job fielding a Team, yet we could not score against them Adkins is running true to form. As with his other Clubs, it is this time in the season he runs out of ideas People DO get fed up with hearing the same old Guff after every game The Chickens certainly are coming home to roost

We are having a bad run and still creating chances. Things are not going away and we have dropped points. We are still top because we built up a great lead and you are crying. This is one of the most competitive divisions in the world, as the Hammers and Boro' have shown recently too everyone beats everyone. You seriously didn't think we were going to carry on as we started for the entire 46 games did you!?

Chin Strain Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 You don't have to actually HEAR a fart to know it is in the air So basically you just made that all up.
Channon's Sideburns Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Some people obviously still think we have George Burley in charge. Short fookin' memories....or perhaps you'd prefer Poortvliet - or Branfoot? Christ. Most successful season since fook knows when, we have a sh1t month and posts about it falling apart?! Get a grip FFS.

For years Saint Richmond has been, by far, the biggest div on this forum. The man who hailed SISU as messiahs and god sent saviours spitting blood and fury when they didn't take over. The man who pines and whines and grizzles and groans about the fact we haven't got a 25,000 seater stadium in some retail park. The man whose every utterance, word and thought on this forum is a truck load of ill-informed rancid horsesh it. I cringe with embarrassment at how everything you ever say on this forum, yes everything, is so utterly, pathetically wrong. Your contributions on this thread keep up your fine tradition. Get back under your rock and start wa nking about SISU again.

We did score today. And we are still top of the league. Players are coming in and we will have injured players coming back soon. Now is not the time to panic, it's the time to get behind the team. we will be promoted this season.

Crazy Diamond Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 We're having a blip and suddenly that means Adkins has lost the dressing room? Have a nice big dose of reality would you please? ****ing hell...

thorpie the sinner Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 FFS. We did score today. And we are still top of the league. Players are coming in and we will have injured players coming back soon. Now is not the time to panic, it's the time to get behind the team. we will be promoted this season. One of the three sensible posts I have read here since 455pm!!
VectisSaint Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Why not try to assess the results from a "neutral" viewpoint ?? Most neutrals would see that we are top of the league and not see the short term run of bad form. Not everything is rosy in the garden, but FFS we are not going to be relegated (unless we get docked points). I'm really hacked off this afternoon after the last 2 results, I'm not a happy clapper, and you are quite right that you are entitled to your opinion. But opinions are one thing, spewing utter tripe is quite another. It is not that everyone is being happy-clappy, just that the majority on here have a modicum of sense. I really am beginning to get fed up with this Forum, I'm ****ed off enough without reading such codswallop from people like you, Alps and Metal Mickey.

Adkins' previous record of taking over a club and getting it promoted in ten months, you mean?? That one where he ran out of ideas about what time - May 30th?
View From The Top Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 A very good post indeed. Someone else who dares to ask questions of the happy clappers. I bet you've be wan king yourself stupid now that we've lost two in a row. I bet you're praying for failure and Adkins head on a platter. Cock.
Crazy Diamond Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 "Try being realistic for a moment" Okay then. We lost 3 - 0 today and are top of the league. ...Do you want more realism or was that painful enough to take in?

saint lard Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 I bet you've be wan king yourself stupid now that we've lost two in a row. I bet you're praying for failure and Adkins head on a platter. Cock. On the contrary,i want success at SFC and i don't care who makes that happen,be it Adkins or someone else.......Just because i don't fawn over every utterance Adkins makes,or agree with everything he does does not mean i want him to fail......do you seriously think any Saints supporter wants that? You can think what you like of me(if you don't follow the train of thought of others on here you get called abusive names) i'm not overly bothered. I think you, like others, on here show their true colours by not being able stand any critisim of Adkins. The love in with him has/is been nauseating. But that dosen't mean i want failure to be brought to the club i love. Problems need to be addressed,i don't see him doing that in the 6 games or so.....hence questions should be asked......and i hope he is asking questions of himself,otherwise he will fail and hit the brick wall, like he has in the past.
slickmick Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Is it safe to question why we get turned over every time we come up against pacey wide players when were away from home. Why do we continue to play narrow when it fails so often when were away ?
um pahars Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 I'm just waiting for the spanner to link Lambert's dismissal to the binge drinking session on Boxing Day.
Thedelldays Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 god.....we at saints (or some) really cant deal with the ups and downs of being very good can we....really really do not know how to react......we go through a bad spell and remain top and people are actually asking if the manager has lost the dressing room....yep the same dressing room the best players at the club keep signing up long term to be a part of, the same dressing room that has been pound for pound the best place to be for about a whole year...........what is wrong with some of you...? seriously...? I almost wish we were never top and 4th (like cardiff) just so we dont read pathetic horsesh it like this.......why do saints fan need toi constantly moan...why...?
Norm Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 I wonder if Rickies sending off is down to his binge on Boxing day? There you are Um, anything to keep you happy!
um pahars Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 I wonder if Rickies sending off is down to his binge on Boxing day? There you are Um, anything to keep you happy! I think you're right. It was an obvious response and a symptom of his current frustration with the people, the Club and the area.
Crazy Diamond Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 I think you're right. It was an obvious response and a symptom of his current frustration with the people, the Club and the area. Wrong. He obviously wants to go to Hannover or Newcastle, he got himself sent off so he wouldn't be forced to play in games where he might get an injury and fail a medical. IT'S OBVIOUS.

Crazy Diamond Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 And be cup-tied!!!!! You're learning, good lad.
Frank's cousin Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Feck me we have some right prima donnas on here... What is the problem with some 'fans'? Everyone who has half a brain KNOWS Adkins is entering territory now that he has not faced before - he has proven he has what it takes in L1 with 3 promotions - he has proven he has what it takes to get a side not much different from that in L1 to begin the season strongly, be well prepared and achieve more that any of us though possible at the start of the season. HE is young and LEARNING FFS - and now is a test for sure, but to dismiss him or criticise as some of you are is frankly pathetic. West Ham couldn't buy a win, Boro just got thumped, reading just got turned over - Well feck me - have their managers all lost the dressoing room, are they all suddenly ****? I dont know if he is a manager who will succeed at ten highest level, and we dont know whetehr he is ready and experienced enough to get us out of the curent poor run either - but you know what? I can Guarantee he will be trying his feckin hardest, giving it his all and importantly doing it with passion yet with a smile on his face - and he DESERVES our SUPPORT, Jeez there are some posters on here (I wont call them fans) who are spanking their small planks at being able to have sly digs, or blatent ignorant attacks.... FFS grow up. NOo one is above criticism, and football is a game where every fan will have their own tactical opinion - mostly complete cock but nevertheless its what makes this game so facinating - and discussing the merits or otherwise of formations and players is one thing but to start speculating about the dressing room or other such ****** is plain feckin stupid. What the feck is wrong with some of you people? The club has been in the ****, has been saved and is now 3 years in to a 5 year plan and we no doubt ahead of schedule - so what if mistakes are made, mistakes WILL be made as NC and NA and the squad LEARN to deal with a difficult step up - yet some of you clowns act like it should be a foregone conclusion - jeez. I know feck all about football, but some of you arseholes make me look like Alex friggin Ferguson. Its easy to support when we are winning every game, but its during the tough times that the proper fans get behind the club, the team, and the manager, especially when they have shown us what they are capable of. Heaven forbid we do get promoted when losing becomes more common - what you going to be doing then? Grow some feckin gonads and stop acting like a bunch of pussies.
Legod Third Coming Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Umm, I have axe to grind with Adkins (except our recent form) but this is stretching it a little too far. If you can find a bloke who has won a higher ratio of games, I'm all ears!! He is still the most successful manager in the football league bar Fergie...
aintforever Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 If you can find a bloke who has won a higher ratio of games, I'm all ears!! He is still the most successful manager in the football league bar Fergie... Having a high win ratio hardly makes him more successful than Lawrie Mac, especially given that the big guy wasn't bankrolled by billionares.
Norm Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 If you can find a bloke who has won a higher ratio of games, I'm all ears!! He is still the most successful manager in the football league bar Fergie... You wrote, And yet we are supposed to turn against our most successful manager ever on your say so?? This is not the same as your quote above. More successful then Ted Bates and L Mac? I don't think so (yet).
Frank's cousin Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Having a high win ratio hardly makes him more successful than Lawrie Mac, especially given that the big guy wasn't bankrolled by billionares. er... would hardly say NA has been bankrolled to a stupid billionnaire level...sor far... and b) in Lawries day you didn't need to be, different era, when you could sign teh European footballer of the Year on 145k a year salary (equiv of about 10k and week in today's prices)....
Legod Third Coming Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 Having a high win ratio hardly makes him more successful than Lawrie Mac, especially given that the big guy wasn't bankrolled by billionares. There is only one measure by which all managers can be judged across decades and that is the volume of games they win. Lawrie (of whom I am a huge fan) wasn't bankrolled by billionaires but in the First Division he was able to sign: Shilton, Watson, Mills, Ball... and lest we forget, the messiah!!! (I don't imagine Adkins will be bankrolled to sign Messi - today's equivalent!!!) I appreciate it's arbitary - Lawrie was successful over a long period and it's a bit like comparing Arkle with Kauto Star. But really, in all the years following, do you recall 20+ consecutive home wins... Adkins is Kauto Star and you're just from the Arkle era my friend....
aintforever Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 You're talking b*ll*x, silverware is how you judge managers and so far Adkins has nowt.
Legod Third Coming Posted 2 January, 2012 Posted 2 January, 2012 You're talking b*ll*x, silverware is how you judge managers and so far Adkins has nowt. Oh right - so Pardew is our most successful manager of the recent era - much more than WGS or Adkins... brilliant.
