If I have learnt anything from all this, it is that Nigel is so positive he starts off writing a letter "k" with a tick!
Thanks Fran. Can always rely on a pragmatic comment from you - you're the female, non-managerial Nigel Adkins!
Also, Corns has removed the tweets he sent in conversation with a journalist who asked for permission to use the picture in an article. Uh oh...
I just saw it as the fact that he wanted to watch a wet scene in a wet movie (no pun intended), in which he can enjoy crying along to something of emotional weight - much like a woman may do when she's been dumped, for example. Perhaps eating ice cream from the tub as he did so. I have a feeling there was some tongue in cheek too. However, I also like the subtext that is being uncovered here - with Saints the ship, and our new manager the iceberg. Adkins is Leonardo DiCaprio, Come Back Papa is Kate Winslet. And introducing PompeyLapras as the plank of wood. Cortese is Billy Zane, who went on to shag Kelly Brook, and thus comes out of it all quite well in the end.
Really? Steve Corns was merely trying to show what a gentleman Nigel was and the club wont even let him get away with it.
How could i eat popcorn while watching titanic when 1500 people died including leonardo di caprio and kate winslet? A sad scene in a movie and an actual historical event are the same thing!
That means I have to let go of Adkins whilst freezing my arse off Lying on top of Lapras, I think I might not turn up for that audition
That's fair enough, I just think something that wasn't both such a tragedy and something that actually happened would have been less.... inappropriate perhaps. For example the ending to Forrest Gump. That's incredibly sad!
I ****ing hope that's real. What a likeable and dignified man. You lot did well to have him for a couple of years. Hopefully you don't suffer too much after this.
Absolutely right, Nicola Cortese didn't even deserve to have Nigel as one of his employee's. True Gentleman.
