Great news about finally getting there, and welcome Nigel to the gang, and note JJ staying as assistant more good news, now maybe make sure JJ is happy and signed to a similar contract. Wonder what Lee will think of all this regarding JJ and wanting him at Brum.
Good appointment. But not sure its wise to of TS and Nigel to speak about the prem so much, if a current player reads that it can't do anything good for their confidence.
Adkins did brilliantly for Southampton TEN FUCKING YEARS AGO - he has not worked for two years and failed at his last three clubs.
This is just so gutting, I am sure he is a lovely bloke and all that but come on people if Sunderland appointed him after sacking Parky we’d have thought them mad.
Obviously he knows Ged Roddy from working together at Reading and that’s why he got the job, and that is just not good enough I am afraid.
Feels like a real kick in the teeth and confirms what others have said about tension between Bowyer and Roddy with the former fearing a replacement was being lined up.
I would love to be wrong but this looks like an awful appointment, please show me a manager that has failed at his last three clubs and then suddenly finds success after two years on his arse. You won’t be able to.
Really quite angry about this, feels like a complete piss take to be honest.
Said i was underwhelmed yesterday, reading more about him today i actually feel quite positive. Enjoyed his interview too and i think its great JJ stays assistant. Up the Addicks!
Just watched his interview on our website, he's the complete opposite to Bows. Nice to see someone speak with enthusiasm about the club and not seem like it's the worst thing in the world.

Is that the Roddy who worked and Reading in 2018 and the Adkins that left in 2014? Or a different pair?
Seems a great appointment, successful promotions and play offs up to prem level and steered hull away from relegation. Has also been relegated so brings all round experience and lessons learnt. And JJ stays. Lets go baby!
Compared to bows who had little experience and took us up with a great team but ultimately was tactically and selection inept, disinterested (and may have lost to the team)... this is a positive move.

What a load of rubbish.
He didn't fail at Hull, he did a good job and then resigned because of the board. Hull fans were gutted he left.
Plus he didn't work with Ged Roddy at Reading, they were there at different times.
He's won promotion from this league 3 times. I don't care if that was 20 years ago 10 years ago or last week. That proves to me he can organise a team and get them moving in the right direction which is exactly what this team needs at the moment!

Can we get an eye roll button next to the LOL one please?

"Adkins is a huge appointment mate. I love that man"

Mike, where I live I'm surrounded by Palace and Chelsea fans so I can't say Nxxxl without feeling nauseous.
So I will have to say Nads or Howard (middle name)
Adkins and Jackson; The way forward.

I think this is a great bit of business.
He has all the attributes we require right now, and after watching the video it inspires me that he will indeed succeed.
Welcome Nigel. (Has he got middle name we can use instead of Nigel!?) 😉
If anyone needs convincing this is a good appointment....

Strikes me as being the exact opposite of Bowyer
Up the Addicks!
Good start.
No idea what it means, but guess its something along the lines of him being a nice guy.
It was a great video and Howard is N.Adkins middle name.
100% support
😩

Best of luck Nigel.
