"The hardest job is done for the Southampton manager"

[Saint-Armstrong]

The National - an Irish paper did a write up on Nigel/Saints ahead of this opening weekend of the Premier League season:

A really good read I thought.

Good article. The paper is from the middle east though, not Ireland.

[Saint-Armstrong]

Massive fail. Apologies.

Nice to see a positive article on Saints in an Abu Dhabi based Newspaper before they play Citeh who are of course sponsored by Abu Dhabi's Etihad Airlines.

"Aiming for 17th place is wrong"

 

That is the best bit in the article as far as I am concerned. A POSITIVE mindset

 

None of this "we'll be happy to stay out of the bottom three" garbage

 

Good on you Nigel Adkins .....

 

 

 

 

(Mind you, a couple of decent CB's and a long range shot stopper would help )

Yeah but those scabi's are still miserable sods.

 

No sign of our freebie flights & corporate from them

 

They want 1200 QUID for the package to go back for the game.

 

Ain't gonna moan about the ticket tax in future

no-one ever achieved anything by just hoping.

 

Nigel Adkins' mindset is the secret of his (our) success. There are lots of negatives in the world, but success comes from looking for the positives in every situation.
