First time you've spoken sense in a whileJim Phipps goes to Nigel Clough's house, apologises and gives him the job as interim manager, so we don't get relegated. He saved us last time
Clough will tell him to fuck off and then set the dogs on him.
How about McCabe apologises to Warnock?
Sometimes I just predict the future but it seems complete rubbish when I say it.First time you've spoken sense in a while![]()
I'm just having a little jokeSome people.
I have such an issue with this whole 'get Clough back' line that people are pulling out.
Firstly, you seem to remember just how dull we were under Clough. You didn't need to even bother turning up until half time every game as you wouldn't have missed anything.
Secondly, we were garbage. However, there were games where we would be truly atrocious but Murphy would wave his magic wand and win us some points. Adkins doesn't have the luxury of having a player anywhere near the quality of Murphy. We haven't replaced him and now the cupboards are bare.
If Clough had this squad we would be in exactly the same position. Changing managers will ache ove absolutely nothing. We need new players. 11 to be exact. Whoever is in charge will need money though, which the board won't allow. Look at Steve Cotterill, truly terrible manager, but he was given money and smashed the league with Bristol City.
Doesn't matter who the manager is if the players available are of as poor a quality as ours.
I started it I think. You're welcome.Some people.

Adkins style of play is boring too. This difference is Nigel Clough got the results from his.
And gets Bean to ???????Clough will tell him to fuck off and then set the dogs on him.
How about McCabe apologises to Warnock?

Get him back
Do you mean 'gets Bean too' or do you want me to fill in the blanks?And gets Bean to ???????
Yes - he should've sold Collins and JCRDeary me, his transfers a huge part of the problem.
Yes, but as I said, only because of Murphy.
Adkins style of play is in response o having poor players who can't play expansive football.
You only have to cast your memory back to Adkins' Southampton and Scunthorpe teams to know this isn't a usual Adkins team.
Yes - he should've sold Collins and JCR
Fill in the blanks please.......Do you mean 'gets Bean too' or do you want me to fill in the blanks?
look at the talent Adkins had at Southampton. You forget Clough brought in some good players such as Che, Basham, Brayford, Coutts, Harris, McNulty just to name a few. Who has Adkins brought in Hammond, Sharp, Woolford, Sammon. At least Nigel Clough brought in some great talent. Also before Clough came in Murphy the fans wanted Murphy gone as other managers couldn't give him the confidence he needed. Clough did. He also got Flynn playing.
There is no way you can say we only got those results due to Murphy. They were down to Nigel Clough.
At least Clough brought in good and some shit not just shit like Adkins does, and Adkins din't use any of his connections at clubs like Southampton. While Clough did.Firstly of the 'Good players' I think Brayford is the only good league 1 player. If we had that many good league 1 players, we wouldn't be where we are! He also brought in an impressive amount of shite.
However, my point is that at least he had Murphy. Murphy was our best player my a mile last season, Adkins had him in pre-season (assuming Murhpy would be a blade come September) on for us to sell him to the first bidder and not give Adkins the opportunity to replace him.
Adkins is far from perfect but we were also dreadful to watch under Clough. The other 2 times Adkins managed in this league, he has been promoted from it. Nothing wrong with his credential, but the squad he has is utterly utterly shite.
If he comes out anytime now and admits what he has ( including some of his signings) are utterly shite, instead of the usual fucking shit rhetoric, then yes I say keep him.Firstly of the 'Good players' I think Brayford is the only good league 1 player.

Sort out our mascot?Fill in the blanks please.......
And got some reight shit for it.At least Clough brought in good and some shit not just shit like Adkins does, and Adkins din't use any of his connections at clubs like Southampton. While Clough did.
