Adkins gone?

The thing is, if Cork hadn't been injured we wouldn't have given Hammond a second thought. He's too good a player, with too much passion for the game to sit back as 5th choice CM and I expect it was ultimately Hammond's choice to go out on loan.
 
I doubt that any Saints manager is loved as much as Nigel. I'm hoping he will have more success with us, but, when he moves on, his new team will become my second team. He says that he is a better manager now than when he joined us...he may come back to bite us in the future.

I hope he doesn't replace Appy at Pompey then Fran!
 
If we win at the weekend, we can get back on track. I work on points roughly equaling the number of games played to stay up, and we are not that far off track.
 
I gave a thumbs up and said the loyalty is great. I was merely pointing out that the situation is unusual.

With regards to Allardyce. He has us ticking along quite nicely thanks.

With so much negativity it is easy to read into things that don't actually say what they think you are saying! Word choice is important with touchy chaps like ours! Sam had the benefit of experience and as you say is doing quite nicely, some of our lads don't like him for what he said in our Promotion run up, can't blame 'em for that.
