Why the edit of my post? Anyway, not sure why that would be unbelievable to anyone with a balanced mind. Think about what I've actually posted as opposed to viewing it through your blinkers. It's progress we are talking about. It's happening and quickly. It can never be too fast but Racism was neve...
Times they are a-changing. Rapidly. And people are learning all the time. And that's a huge positive. The fallout from Whelan's ill-advised words is actually another positive step in educating people what is and isn't acceptable. But I really don't think rabid over-reaction such as we've seen / hea...
Has anyone seen that crime thriller film starring Stephen Baldwin, Pete Postlethwaite and Kevin Spacey? Were Whelan's words ill-advised? Yes. Has he apologised. Yes. He is the owner of a private company, do you want him to resign as rentaquote Clark Carlisle does :lol: ? He's not a public servant. ...
Do i think Adkins is the right man? He was the best choice to come here at the time imo and i wont judge him until he has a full season with us. Did last season not count? Sorry, there was me thinking he had the entire 12/13 season. Silly me. just to clarify he had the whole of last season (and the...
Think back to McDermott and Coppell - they had to sell their best players every season and were left with a small proportion of the money and talent Adkins has at his disposal, yet they never complained and got on with it in a no nonsense fashion. Even when Brian was sacked we were still in with a ...
Just heard our captain on bbc saying how well we played in the second half against Cardiff. After listening to the after match interview with Adkins it seems our whole set up, management and players alike believe we are doing ok and 'playing well'. Don't they all need a big reality check? If Adkins...
According to BBCRB Adkins and his "coaching" staff where handing notes out to the players on the pitch last night. They were reading them then throwing them on the floor. The Cardiff players then picked them up and read the instructions. That's not what BBCRB said at all. And there's no n...
This was always going to be a mid table, rebuilding season. It seems to me that those who were in agreement with that view in preseason are now the key protagonists in wanting Adkins out when the midtable season starts to materialise. +1 I respect both of you as posters on the team board (AE is ano...
Absolutely 100% spot on. The total lack of experience cover in central defence and the absence of a specialist left back says it all. However, there is a solution. Ady Williams is great pals with Madejski and from the way he was going on last night thinks it's all extremely simple to fix ( mind you...
Wanting the manager out, sack the Board type stuff is ( in most cases) standard football-mong behaviour. Oh - did you want to keep Burns and Bullivant then? :roll: ha ha she's got you there LUX. I do find it amusing that it appears the most ardent Adkins fans are the ones that don't actually watch ...
Away from HNA for a while as whilst most of you are alright, there's a big enough minority of bellends and apologists (not mutually exclusive) to ruin a great site. After hearing the radio last night I was shocked that the general vibe was that Adkins' days are numbered. I'm a little confused. Adki...
RE: Dave Whelan MELTDOWN currently being led by (who else) the BBC and from a mate of mine though I agree with every word: This sums up today’s absurd society, where people with too much time on their hands sit around excitedly waiting to be offended so they can then complain about it. What the hel...
What money would you invest Jimmy, putting in 80k for the wages are you? I and 13,000 others invest our hard earned money into the club backing our club. I expect the club to invest whatever it takes to sort our defence out. So the great 13000 raise c6.5 million and expect this to be enough to run ...
Royal Rother I didn't hear the context of it but in the pre match chat to Dillon didn't he say that, if offered a job, he thought Steve Coppell's would consider it..,?
