[AirRaidSiren]

still on the fence. next season will answer this question

[Man Friday]

When are people going to shut the fcuk up about Brian? Its in the past so move on, get over it, and if you cant see that it was the right decision then you are simply a brainless pcunt.

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

Or, in your case, in the land of the small-brained you're completely brainless.

Erm yeah right.....

In the land of the pcunts, you are the king.

I can be, I can be.

Whilst you are King W@nker.

Just curious if the right decision was to replace Brian right away instead of getting someone in a care taker position to hold over until end of the season. Trying to pluck a manager from a club who is heading to the playoffs is a bit retarded when they could have just been patient and got their man. Season was over when Macdermot was sacked so no need to hurry in finding a replacement. Personally feel like Adkens is the wrong person and will end up being another Rodgers.

Are you on a wind up?

[Haag Royal]

FFS can't believe the idiots on this site still want to debate this.

Please. Move. On.

Oh and by the way, and just as relevant, anyone reckon sacking Jack Mansell was the right decision?

[Man Friday]

It's a discussion board. The discussion involves Reading Football Club. You move on.

[Avon Royal]

probably the right decision, possibly should have been made sooner even

Can't say I didn't try to tell you..........

I don't know where to put this nugget of information, not going to start a new thread but I am claiming ITK

Heres the source, friend of mine does work for someone high up at Brighton.

So the story goes, Poyet and the board had/have massively fallen out (hence his rash comments after the palarse game) the board had been slowly taking away his powers and rendering his position to be one of a coach and not much more.

He was obviously not happy with this and its caused great friction. Brighton can't afford to buy him out and the fans will react badly to his sacking but the club is losing money even with the Amex full. Poyet wants to spend more and quiet rightly. Poyets ambitions don't match those of the clubs at this stage.

So when dear old Brian was let go Brighton approached Reading for us to take Poyet knowing their was previous links. The rest is history but if true (and I have no reason to doubt its not) Adkins was always in our sites and isn't second choice but when Brighton asked we did have a look at Poyet.

Take it or leave it but thats what I was told.

[HoneyRoastHoax]

Thats disapointing, not even a shout of Bullshit?

[maffff]

Sounds plausible.

Or not.

[Elm Park Pasty]

Interesting. Can't recall that many clubs touting their manager for a job somewhere else. Most interesting thing for me was your point that they are losing money even when they are fully selling the Amex out. Absolutely toxic position to be in. Cheeky bid for Ashley Barnes or anyone else?

[HoneyRoastHoax]

I'd take Bridcutt and Ulloa

I believe that actually - Poyet & his staff now suspended.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

I think Adkins was always our target. If he wasn't I don't think we'd have sacked Brian when we did - Anton had to move quick as a whole host of clubs would have swooped for him.

[St. Brynjar]

Poyet can come and be joint assistant manager.

[windermere_royal]

Poyet can come and be joint assistant manager.

He had his chance, he chose to stay at Brighton, he can piss off.

[Mike Hunt]

Bullshit.

The local paper down here reckons he was suspended for failing to deal with players out of contract and on loan.

Adkins >>>>>>>>>>>> Poyet
