What’s the point of getting rid when there no one ready better to take over .. your end up in the same position in 4 months time .. Adkins was the right man less then 12 ago , in fact he was the right man fir the job at the start of this season after impressing in the 11 games he had last season .. … tonight Ipswich and Pompey fans are calling for their manager heads .. it’s getting ridiculous managers just not getting time to build a team .. gone are the days a manager gets 5 years or more to do his job .DDOUBLEE said:
So you're happy with Adkins then?RonnieMoore said:

Okay, let's keep Adkins for 5 years then and see who his replacement is when we're struggling to survive in the Conference South after a 4-0 defeat by Maidstone UnitedRonnieMoore said:

Plus TS will want to do it properly .. not tell himShootersHillGuru said:
Perhaps. Need to remember that when Adkins was appointed that TS was certain that Nigel was the right man. Finding out that he’s not won’t be an easy process for TS and that why I think he’s been patient. Having said that you don’t make as much money as Thomas has in business without having enough sense to know when to act. Like I said. I think he has two games.Rob7Lee said:
Disagree, the time to press it was a few weeks ago.ShootersHillGuru said:
I think Adkins knows he’s standing in the doorway of the last chance saloon. Thomas has I think acted honourably by not pushing the button already but I’m confident he knows where the button is and when to press it.EugenesAxe said:
Problem is with Thomas’ approach as it is, Nige could still be lumbering along like that in 2 months time, cobbling a win in between two defeats and a draw all the time, and still be in the bottom threeShootersHillGuru said:Personally I think he’s got the next two games. Tuesday and Saturday. A heavy defeat at The Stadium of Light, which is on the cards might well seal his fate. Tuesday he needs a performance.
he sacked while he in the team coach coming back from the game ….0 -
Anyone who knows their squad would have realised that with the disallowed goal 3 mins from the end, Stockley should have been brought back to defend and play with one up front to protect the point.Nads doesn’t know his best team and his formation and tactics are woeful. It seems he has no game management skills either.He will be gone Weds morning if we lose Tuesday.0

Jesus wept. Yes, let’s give NA 5 years to build us into a club that yo-yos between League Two and League One. Progress, eh?RonnieMoore said:

Spot onMaccn05 said:I’ve stolen this from Twitter as I completely agree with the point made
“Don't really get this 'nice guy' thing. From Day 1 he's seemed aloof and self-regarding to me, and lacking any real interest in the club. Surprised how many people seem to mistake a positive attitude for an engaging one”
I’ve hated his attitude since the results fell off a cliff. Refusing to go to the fans, constant excuses, hiding from the truth and no apologies to the paying & traveling fans… it’s all an act to me, his persona and the cracks have been showing for a while.
I was firmly against his appointment from day one I called that he was ‘Yesterday’s Man’ but it has to be ended now.
We need a fresh young, modern manager to just start again. Not bothered about a nameZ would love Ryan Lowe but the sad fact is he wouldn’t even join us now.1 -

This side is bereft of confidence. And somehow, Super positive Nigel Adkins managed to get things so very wrong from the start of this season. It was obvious to me at the Wigan game that this group really weren't feeling it.
His flush is busted. His batteries are flat. Time to get someone to inject some sort of belief and optimism into this sorry bunch I'm afraid.2 -
100% agree. We are looking at probably one of our lowest crowds in league history on Tuesday night against a side who enjoy sticking it to the big sides in this division. What realistically is NA going to change from today’s showing by Tuesday. Desperately need to change the culture at the club. Got a perfect storm ahead of us. We need to get this sorted ASAP, should have been resolved straight after the Bolton hammering.cabbles said:Think I saw this mentioned elsewhere, but what’s the point of giving him the next game or next 2 games. Say we win one or both? 2 wins in 12 would suggest there will be no magic turnaround.1 -

Seconded!ricky_otto said:
One thing I do know, if he is there on Tuesday then I won’t be.CAFCTrev said:
100% he will be in charge on Tuesday.ricky_otto said:
If he is in charge on Tuesday them serious questions have to be asked as to what Sandgaard wants from all this.CAFCTrev said:Adkins will get Tuesdays game, trouble is if he scrapes a draw in that he will probably get another 3 games.
People will start to turn on TS if Adkins is still here come November and we are still in the bottom 3.3 -
He will probably make five changes then five changes again then no changes when we only lose to Sunderland by one goal. He doesn't know his best side and half of the players he picks are not fit enough. He doesn't know how to fix it and hopefully there is somebody who does or we may be starting next season in League Two.SouthWest_Addicks said:

Just got back - PWR
Without a shadow of a doubt, this team have no idea how to play together. No coherent tactics, ZERO confidence.I’ve done fleetwood and Lincoln in recent weeks and I cannot watch another minute of this team under Adkins. I won’t watch us play again until he goes.20 -
I think I’d give Ainsworth the job. Done well at Wycombe on little to no money, unlucky to get relegated last season, has Wycombe back up there again, play good football.Todds_right_hook said:

No disrespect to Wycombe they are a small club, small crowds, no real financial backing. It might not seem so at the moment but we are a huge step up.MuttleyCAFC said:Why would he leave Wycombe for us?2 -
