Anyone else notice how Nigel Adkins seems to know when to make a substution? Against MK Dons two nil down brings on Forte 3-2 win. Having a bit of pressure from Birmingham at 3-1 on sat brings on Chaplow he scores all 3 points secured. Brings on Lallana on wed he scores basically strait away and i am sure there are other times also. Well done Nige long may it continue.
Ah, but the secret is that Nigel doesn't make substitutions! No, he brings on "impact players". Don't forget that it's not about the eleven, it's about the squad of honest hardworking professional players going out there and winning a game of football. It's as simple as that.
That's exactly what's happened since Nigel's been in the building. Now we shall draw a blue line under it and we shall move on - we'll just keep chipping away.
The major difference between NA and the last few managers is that he always has a Plan 'B' ready to be implemented, and no doubt half a dozen other blue prints in the planning progress!
Please stop trying to find him other jobs..he's going to leave Saints in a box..Cortese will see to it personally.
