rshephard3 Posted 18 January, 2013 Share Posted 18 January, 2013 Adkins is seriously a role model for me. Top bloke!!! I agree with this. He is a role model. I, like many on here I'm sure, have a tendancy to get a little downbeat and grumpy sometimes. I truly see Adkins as the epitomy of how to straighten your back, pull yourself together and see the positivity in everything. I really really hope he moves onto better things in the future. He is a talented rational hard working man and it's sad not to have him as manager anymore. When Alex Ferguson is baffled as to a football decision you know it must be questionable at best!

We've let one of the brightest young managers in English football go. He'll get another club and he'll do well. We'll have to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
