Re: [LU] Nigel Adkins ??
and lets get a reality check here. We're talking about Adkins as if he's managed this 'tin pot' club to successive promotions and 5 wins out of 24 in the premier legue on a shoestring. He's spent a fooking fortune - fat boy Billy Sharper cost nearly 2 million and he was one of their cheaper signings. I was amazed to see they had spent nearly 40 million including 13 million on 1 player (Ramirez) and even when Adkins was in the lower leagues he was shelling out millions for players (Ricky Lambert, Jose Fonte). Incredible. He is a spectacular failure. Do you think if Warnock had a few million we wouldn't be in the playoffs or auto promotion this year ? If he could buy a Ricky Lambert or a Gary Hooper - of course we would.

Re: [LU] Nigel Adkins ??
Plus they had a bitch of a start to their first Prem season. Man City, Man U and Arsenal were 3 of their first 4 games, so they were always going to start poorly, and firmly rooted to the bottom of prem. Coming back from that was a great performance IMHO.

Re: [LU] Nigel Adkins ??
Well, Southampton were 15th in the Premier League and had lost only two of the previous 12 games when Cortese sacked him. That's not bad for a team that's achieved back-to-back promotions from League 1. Cheers!

Having said that, his middle name is "Howard", so maybe that's a good omen anyway? If you put that in the anagram mix though, then you could have "Danger, a kid who nils", which is ominious...

Re: [LU] Nigel Adkins ??
Well looking at all the comments from Warnock, it looks like he's after an early pay-off, and I hope we accomodate him! Adkins-era Southampton were patchy in the prem, but that new guy has turned them into something a bit more enterprising. I kind of remember Adkins from Scunny, and he sorted them out - I'm always a bit unsure of these evangelical types, although that's probably because I'm a cynical old tw*t who's heard enough psycho-babble to last a lifetime, so hearing a footie manager say it always makes me cringe! All in all though, LUFC have to change the entire mentality around the club - build from the team upwards, get rid of the cynicism. Mind you, with the new 'owners' basically hanging around for a big pay-day I don'y know how that will pan out? I just hope we see the end of 30+ yr old donkeys who can't get a game anywhere else. Hope they wouldn't go down the Di Cannio route, for all the reasons always touched on. We need common-sense, not a madman!
