trousers Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 Nabil Hassan now reporting on twitter that Adkins found out he'd been sacked when he saw it on tv. What are the thoughts from the Cortese worshipers on that? http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/nigel-adkins-sacked-southampton-manager-1544359 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le Tissier Posted 18 January, 2013 Author Share Posted 18 January, 2013 I think the sacking of Nigel is disgraceful. However' date=' your views on Cortese are entirely subjective. Your opinion is formed by hearsay and second hand knowledge. You have no direct knowledge of anything yourself. Therefore it is no better than idle gossip really.[/quote'] Correct . I said from the day one these are my opinions and unless you hear your self from someone who is a reliable source to you then why should you support them. Some people choose to listen to others experiences and some choose not to. I wonder how Nigel would have done as Barcelona manager? Lets face it they train and play together for Spain and they are all in the top 10 in there own positions in the world. So you would have to be a serious retard to not do well. The team picks its self to be fair and they play with each other with Spain. So seriously whats left for the manager to do apart from sit back and admire. Oh and get up every ten minutes and wave his hands around and sit down. I'm not slating pep as I'm sure he's very good, all I'm saying is you could put most managers in his position and I'm sure they would do well.

St Marco Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 If that is true that he found out on tv then sorry I don't see how anyone could defend the way Cortese has acted. If you want rid of him then fine but do it in the right way with the respect EARNED from two promotions and having the club sit 15th in the PL. Adkins did not deserve that at all.

LVSaint Posted 19 January, 2013 Share Posted 19 January, 2013 Calling Cortese names is just retarded. Lets just simplify it for you bed wetters out there. Adkins did a superb job getting us to the Premier but was clearly out of his depth.If you dont believe just go back over the results this season. We have lost and drawn from winning positions. Not to mention a couple of appalling matches Wigan, Sunderland. Some outright peculiar substitutions. The faffing around with the goalkeeper situation and so on. Not to mention the amount of money Adkins was given to spend and still we are only a few points above an absolute ****e Reading. Cortese was absolutely right to make the decision. The fans reaction has verged on a Diana like form of mass hysteria. What's your opinion of the timing of all this? Isn't this a stupid time to be booting out a manager after the promise we've shown recently? ****ing huge gamble if you ask me..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Posted 19 January, 2013 Share Posted 19 January, 2013 Personally have no problem with Cortese's ambition and Pochettino doesn't sound a bad option except the language barrier, which is not insurmountable. But the manner in which Cortese sacked Adkins, and probably played with his head these last weeks when he must have known something was up, was pretty low. And it turns us from a club which was gaining a lot of popularity regarding our style of football and manager into one most observers now hate. And that embarrasses and saddens me.
