semtex1871 If the club listen to you gimps that want Atkins sacked and appoint Parky/Pulis/Strachan/Lambert in his place, would you then all be happy that they've got the right man and support the manager no matter what?

Stupid question. It's not like a marriage. I'll support the manager until I think he's underperforming and I lose confidence that he will improve. Doesn't matter if I wanted him in the first place - I'll admit I made a mistake. I just want the club to succeed, not fall in love with the manager.

sandman And if they listen to you and Reading get relegated because of Atkins will you be happy? No, you'll moan about how your f[u]cking hospitality suite doesn't stock caviar anymore.


:lol: calm down dear....we're not getting relegated.

Mid table finish will suffice this year, serious push next season.....

Like it or not, the fact is that a significant proportion of RFC supporters now want Adkins OUT. In the relegation battle to come, the fans need someone to unite behind.

I would love it, LOVE it if we could tempt Coppell and Downes back. Can someone tell me what Dellor said about the players not getting on with Adkins and also what seemed to happen between McCleary and Adkins?

Wanting the manager out, sack the Board type stuff is ( in most cases) standard football-mong behaviour.

ha ha she's got you there LUX.

I do find it amusing that it appears the most ardent Adkins fans are the ones that don't actually watch us.

It's not amusing, it's oxf*rd tedious.
FAO those that do not attend games: your opinion is irrelevant.

fair point. I have never defended Adkins (or anyone). Although if I parrotted your views, you'd not object about me being miles away from games.

but the football-mong point is correct (no idea if you are one of them)

Can someone answer this if they heard it last night? I'd also like to know.

I initially wanted Sir Steve of Coppell, however, the old adage of "never go back" comes into play here, and sadly this will not come to pass.

Given the fact the NA and his backroom staff will all require compensation for "loss of office", we WILL fall foul of FFP, and so they are staying in place until the start of the next financial period relating to FFP. Once that is out of the y way the next RFC manager WILL be Chatchai Paholpat.

HTH.

If that's the case then lets sell a player in Jan so we can sack him before we go down!

The fact we've all been going on about this pretty much since he started means there is something wrong.
People only started on at McD when our threadbare squad was overwhelmed in the premier league. I think Tabb is great, but we was 4th choice in our promotion season and 1st choice in the PL as injuries ravaged the squad far more than Adkins has had to tolerate.
McD went from hero to jobless in a few weeks (PL manager of the moth January, sacked in march/april), whereas Adkins has been under-performing and frustrating the fans all season. He's been given much more time than poor McD was given.
I'd be happy with a few on the list, but as long as we appoint a 'normal guy', not another egomaniac like Adkins.
