    In the light of Spidrman ups thread aout bbc606 posters i thought i would post a few memory threads from the old site.

    Here is a thread started by DTLW on 12 September 2010 whn Adkins was appointed. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A74176734

    forgot about some of the users (superposh)

    here is a taster of some comments on the thread

    Well done Cortese!

    Personally think it is a great appointment, but no matter what you think, whether you agree or not, let's just get behind him and the team!

    Nigel Adkins red & white army !

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I wouldn't call 4 years in the management game experienced! The guy served no apprenticeship under any manager and was just an emergency for Scunthorpe having been there physio previously.

    Not only that, the team that he took Scunthorpe to the Championship with was not even his build!

    He barely took Scunthorpe up having scraped through the play offs. Currently he has been the boss of whipping boy team Scunthorpe. His win/loss ratio is actually quite shocking.

    His C.V is not anything near spectacular i would of thought your chairman could of seen better, i say could because he blatantly has not even bothered looking at any.

    All in all i would be VERY disappointed if i was a Saints fan!

    No disrespect i just pointed a few things out!

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    yeah mate gary johnson is quality!!!! 5-1 Bournemouth, what? Adkins is a great appointment, but cant help feel he may be ditched after we get promo? regardless, i hope he doesnt, and lets have the season we all hoped for!!!! COYR!!!

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    This appointment strikes of desperation to me, but he's a proven manager in the championship, albeit with the smallest club ever.

    Nice to see Saints fans jumping up and down with excitement....it's been a while since you've had something to celebrate.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    AHH those were the days when there were so many fans from other clubs boards coming on - kept it interesting

    Peterborough - utter joke. I went there once to get a new passport (the passport office is the town's only tourist attraction, and when I say "tourist" I mean people who need a passport to go and be a tourist somewhere else).

    Some good posts there.


    "Here's a FACT Superknob.

    When scouts visit St Marys they are housed in an Exec box with sandwiches and drinks etc. When scouts visit Peterborough, they get a seat and a ticket for a free cup of tea at one of the mobile burger bars scattered around London road. laugh

    Such class..........." :cheesy:

    Can I just point out, I predicted the Jack Cork transfer about a year before it happened. Or at least said it could happen.

    At least, that was under one of my previous guises :p
