Glasgow_Saint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Thought he deserved his own thread, has been with us since 2009 and helped deliver some good times Also instrumental in the recruitment of a few in league 1 and Championship players His official sacking confirmed today
Appy Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Did an excellent job with us as a coach, i'm glad his disastrous time as manager didn't get him the sack 2 and a half years ago.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Where would you put him in a league table of Wilkins GS?

Colbury Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't NC say Wilkins had a job for life after his caretaker stint in charge?
Window Cleaner Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't NC say Wilkins had a job for life after his caretaker stint in charge? that would be a stupid thing to say really.
Colbury Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 that would be a stupid thing to say really. Granted, but I'm sure he said something along those lines.
Window Cleaner Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Granted, but I'm sure he said something along those lines. maybe, I was surprised he wasn't sacked with the others at that time. Totally unfussed myself, think we may see a bit of progress from a few players now.

Convict Colony Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 FairPlay Glasgow this is a classy move, your right he worked ****ing hard, won things and got his marching papers when the illuminati fancied someone else.
S-Clarke Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't NC say Wilkins had a job for life after his caretaker stint in charge? You're correct, he did. When Pardew was sacked, NC made a comment in the statement regarding Wilkins and how he'd now be the caretaker. Wilkins then actually came out in an interview to say that NC had given him a job for life, as he appreciated the job he'd done. But I don't believe Wilkins was sacked, I think he left out of decency due to how Adkins was treated. I don't think he felt he could stay on, which you can understand. He will be an enormous miss, that's for sure. He's had a huge influence in the up-turn of this club and I'll be forever grateful to that.

S-Clarke Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 What losing 4 straight? Cortese must have been a lot easier to please in those days then. This was said before he'd managed us. That spell of 4 games is just a non-event, you can't really anaylse that at all. Wilkins is a good couch, those 4 games do nothing to change my opinion on that.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Thanks Dean, you've been...well, OK for the club, but we need to move on now. Bye. (Oh yeah, what's your bro up to lately?).
saintedwill Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't NC say Wilkins had a job for life after his caretaker stint in charge? Has anyone seen him since his last meeting with Don Cortese?
