ooh it's a corner Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 We don't like it and it certainly won't sit comfortably when you're eating your cornflakes in the morning, but ultimately we've got a new boss. Unless anyone wants to buy the current regime out, I suggest there is bugger all we can do about it. Other than raise a glass in the direction of the old boss and support the new one....
St Chalet Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Normally I would agree. But today the King was a very popular one, who had fought a brave battle to be replaced by an unknown Prince who had been plotting against him for a while.
CB Fry Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 We've got a few threads on this topic already haven't we?
Joesaint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Agree, I do not want us to do a Chelsea, we MUST back the manager. I love NA he is a great manager, and will move on and be successfull. Good luck Nigel, now lets get behind this team, and back them. COYS PS, I am in shock still!

Not a good start from the new guy plotting for weeks about this job and says a lot about his character. If the roles were reversed do you imagine Adkins would do the same thing if he was approached to take over? Not a chance IMO.

I'm not arguing, but out of interest what was the gap between Pardew leaving and Adkins coming in? And do you think Adkins was approached by Cortese before Pardew was given marching orders? As I say, not arguing, but Cortese does seem to have a plan, before making his decisions

As I say, not arguing, but Cortese does seem to have a plan, before making his decisions We had a few weeks where Cortese tried to stitch Scunny up over compensation and Nige wouldn't let him. This is probably Cortese's revenge on Nige for that. Served nice and cold.

Why couldn't this have gone on one of the hundreds of other threads already started today?
Didcot Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 CB Fry. Saw your post on the NA leaving the training ground. Just do one, please, just go away.
Shroppie Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Why couldn't this have gone on one of the hundreds of other threads already started today? Agreed. Even the title is lifted from a post I made elsewhere.

Saint_clark Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 We had a few weeks where Cortese tried to stitch Scunny up over compensation and Nige wouldn't let him. After joining adkins actually said those rumours weren't true.
ooh it's a corner Posted 18 January, 2013 Author Posted 18 January, 2013 Agreed. Even the title is lifted from a post I made elsewhere. oooh sorry about that. It could be that I used a well known phrase to sum up my thoughts, which happened to be the same as your comment, or I plagarised your words apologies for the copy infringement mods happy to close this if it's covered elsewhere, I guess I was trying to avoid the inevitable infighting that happens when unpopular decisions are made.
Toadhall Saint Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 Please keep posting CB Fry. The rabble don't like the medicine of common sense and truth but it's good for them. Not needed. The rabble you talk about are fellow Saints fans just because they do not hold the same views as you doesn't make them a rabble.
Shroppie Posted 18 January, 2013 Posted 18 January, 2013 oooh sorry about that.

No worries. Pleased to have someone sharing my take on things really.
