So basically, "Please don't get rid of Nigel, I've been useless for Months and he's the only one keeping me in the team because any other manager would've have dropped my worthless arse months ago."

floyd__streete One of the people best placed to help out the manager is, of course, yourself Gunter yet it is you and your team mates who continue to undermine the manager you so passionately defend with your consistently hopeless performances. Put up or shut up.

Sutekh Honestly how did this get to be a story anywhere, player in backing current manager shock.
Of course all players are going to come out and say that a manager should go aren't they....

That might, conceiveably, possibly, be because the essence of his interview is about what has and is going on behind the scenes at the club. Label me an Adkinista if you like, and call me naive; but for some stupid irrational reason I reckon he's got a a bit of insight into what's actually happened, and is still happening at the club.
Call me a fool if you like, but I give more credence to his words than those written by keyboard warriors with their own agenda, who have none.
Your team plays badly. Your team gets beat. Sh1t happens. Pogrebnyak is on thousands a week. Paying him £100K more a week is not going to make him a better player. He's not worth the money, but he has a fat contract and there's O*ford all anyone can do about it. Same with Guthrie. Deal with it FFS.
If we wind up being relegated, then so be it. That's football.
Much bigger, much better clubs than ours have gone through it.

I like the cut of your jib, young master Tin.
Relegation seems pretty unlikely to me, but honestly, I wouldn't lose any sleep. And I'd be back next season anyway.

mambo3 Gunter also mentioned he is a "Top Manager" and that's been proven in the last 2 years.
"You have to remember what he’s had to work with this last year with everything that has gone on" must make the players feel good about themselves coming from the Captain, great inspirational speech.
Gunter should explain his own performances as well.

Depends how you want to 'interpret' the comments.
Even the stupidest poster knows we've had a whole teams worth of players out injured. We've had long running ownership uncertainty and financial issues. That is what Adkins has had to work with. Not ideal for any manager and reasonable enough for it to be raised in his defence. Of course you can still argue that he hasn't played the hand he was dealt as well as he should have done. But pointing out that he's been working in less than ideal circumstances is hardly a revelation and highly unlikely to have any impact on the players. They know better than us what issues there have been.

How many injuries from open play? Most occur in Training

mambo3 up and down the country there are managers from all walks of life that have to contend with reduced or no budgets not being available what makes him different.
