Royalee No manager is instantly the right 'type'. People bitched about Coppell for not showing enough passion, questioned Pardew and please explain what McGhee's connections with Reading were before he took over as manager? Why don't all you morons quieten down and let the grown ups do their jobs.

Fair enough, but Adkins is far from popular.

LoyalRoyalFan Granted that the title is badly worded, but to put it simply; Nigel Adkins and the Reading fans will just never get along. He isn't the type of manager we need, or want, and the connection between the fans, most of the playing staff, and Nigel himself just isn't there.
The ownership situation doesn't help, but the feeling around the club is one of negativity, and explains why so many people have chosen to boycott the Adkins Revolution.

RoyalBlue If we stick with Adkins (and Madejski manages to sort out the mess created by his first attempt to sell the club) we will get promoted but it may not be this season or possibly even next. However, when we do get promoted, we will do so in a highly enjoyable and entertaining way and will have a fantastic and very realistic chance of remaining in the PL far longer than we have on the previous two occasions.

Anyone with half a brain who listened to Adkins' post match interview tonight would realise just how stupid and absolutely wrong your remarks are.
'Not the type of manager we need or want' ? He is absolutely the type of manager we need. Unlike some of our stupid fans, he realises that it is no good getting promoted to the PL playing Championship 'energy/percentage football' and then trying to adapt when you are there. The PL is far too unforgiving for that and you are simply not given the time and opportunities to change your players and style when you get there. That is the reason McDermott and his squad failed so dramatically last season.
That being the case, you have to change to PL style posession football whilst you are in the Championship and get promoted playing that way. That is what Adkins is trying to do but it isn't a quick process and his task hasn't been made any easier by the squad and preferred playing style of some of the players he inherited. He isn't wanted by some of our fans and the connection with them is missing because they are the greedy and spoilt 21st Century want it now type who fail to realise that you have to work hard to achieve somethings and reward/success doesn't always come over night.
If we stick with Adkins (and Madejski manages to sort out the mess created by his first attempt to sell the club) we will get promoted but it may not be this season or possibly even next. However, when we do get promoted, we will do so in a highly enjoyable and entertaining way and will have a fantastic and very realistic chance of remaining in the PL far longer than we have on the previous two occasions.
Will our owner(s), Chairman, Board and supporters have the patience and nerve required to ensure that this happens or will we end up knee jerking and firing the very manager that we do need?

Its just words, mate.
Anyway, we've had almost all the Adkinsistas contribute to this thread now, at least you weren't aggressive - just deluded as per - unlike some of the others. Just SPARTA to come now, he'll be along soon I'm sure.....

Fair point on Pog. Guthrie has been total mince the last handful of times I've seen him play so I'm not convinced on that one.

semtex1871 Most Reading fans just don't like change, that's why most continually want the old players to come back so it can be like it always was, it was what they knew.
These are the same people who are born in Reading, have never moved out of Reading, have always worked in Reading......they don't like change.....
Get a grip you 'tards.....
