KelvinsRightGlove Posted 21 January, 2013 Share Posted 21 January, 2013 Ok, So, in the cold light of day... I'm willing to admit that I perhaps over-reacted and threw my toys out of the pram a little bit. I was, and still am absolutely gutted that Nigel has gone. I felt a great affection for the guy, given what he achieved at the club and the way he conducted himself through out. Perhaps, writing off my involvement with (i.e. following) football was premature and knee-jerk, but it has certainly dampened my love for the game somewhat, albeit temporarily. Time to look forward I guess, and hope MP is as good as some people say he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain sensible Posted 21 January, 2013 Share Posted 21 January, 2013 It will never be seen as a masterstroke, as the timing of Adkins dismissal is anything but a masterstroke. It has served to unsettle the squad and the fanbase. To me it is a gamble of the highest proportion to do this at such a sensitive time, and especially with someone who can't speak English. The appointment may very well elevate the Saints to bigger and better things, however there is also every chance it may send us down to Championship. As previously stated, only time will tell. But lets not delude ourselves into viewing it as nothing other than what it is......a gamble. Cortese found us in League 1, and will probably argue he has the right to take the proverbial winnings back to the table and play some more. I personally find it to be utterly reckless and ill-advised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
