The Southampton Thread!

Hope the lad is ok and good luck to him. I bet he shit himself when he heard the news.


Sorry thought I was in the Darren fletcher thread.

Hahaha
 
Adkins is a classy bloke, apparently his last message to the Saints squad was "Keep Smiling, Have Faith and Belief that you are doing the right thing, keep looking to improve".

Adkins is a Championship manager, like Warnock he's good at getting clubs promoted but you need something extra.
He's not been given long enough to show if we got something extra or not. Maybe when he's sixty people can look back and say that about him but not now.
 
he was gradually turning it around

you might undrstand it if they had gone for a proven entity but the lack of loyalty is shocking

hope they go down now and would serve them right

Absolutely shocking behaviour by the powers at be.
 
He should've been given the season at least. Two successive promotions and doing reasonably well in the Premiership given the circumstances doesn't warrant a sacking. I've been chatting with people about this and don't yet know anyone who backs what Southampton have done.

The poll on a Saints forum gave 95% against the decision.
 
and i'm sure if I was a Southampton fan, I would say the same as the 95%
However, its the timing thats strange and not the actual decision.
Clearly from comments made, the new man was targetted some time ago.
If Southampton had sacked their manager 2 months ago, his support wouldnt have 95%
I feel very sorry for Adkins but we have been in the same position (on more than one occassion) where the board have decided they need a new man to take the club where they want it to go.
Whilst we may disagree (and Southampton may be proved wrong) I dont deny them the right to make that decision.
We would probably feel the same if Bobby Manc got the boot having done nothing wrong with us but as long as the men in charge make decisons for the good of the club, I dont have a problem. Sympathy for the managers who go though.

PMSL. Even more of a bizarre move by the saints.

That's one side of the things but I think it was such a bizarre decision from the Espanyol board as that one from Southampton with Adkins. The fans didn't like it too. He did well at Espanyol and after the first downfall he got the sack.

Pochettino changed the whole system in Espanyol and had maybe the youngest team in the league with a lot of academists. Seems like a decent guy as well.

I'm a big admirer of him and wish him well though the sack of Adkins was silly as fuck.

He's really getting the Mancini treatment. Hope he does well.

No he isn't getting anywhere near it

Fuck Southamton and Cortese I hope they crash and burn. Cunts
