Brilliant strategy by the club. The only possible way to get the fans to accept Adams as manager was to start this rumour. and they pulled it off.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

I said this yesterday as a JOKE. I hope this is a wind up but am terrified that it's actually f***ed up enough to come true.

Because Adams coming back would be more popular at the time as was Mullery, then Lloyd take over from him less pressure on the Blooms if it goes tits up..

Micky should be Director of Football..his record in signing players we thought wouldn't come to this club is superb. Maybe he should be pushed upstairs and a young hungry manager/coach should come in...possibly at the end of the season though. In the meantime we need a firefighter someone experienced enough for a short term appointment to keep us up. And I don't mean Big Ron or Dave Bassett....not sure who I mean though!

So why noy Barry lloyd ?....just asking really because i thought he was a pretty good manager doing a thankless task under the dictatorship of Stanley and Archer.
He bought in some good players for next to nothing....and was forced to sell them for massive profits and some of the non league players he bought in went on to much better things.
The only downside was the crap football BHA played under Lloyd.....although he got you to within a whisker of the top flight, promotion to the (now) championship and alas, relegation again.
Lots of people saying no thanks, no one saying why ?

We all know what happened before but giving Micky Adams a 3 year contract and a lot of money to spend on players seems a strange and expensive way of trying to get Barry Lloyd in as manager.

Lloyd will not be the next manager.
There is no way Dick will allow that, no matter what the boardroom politics.

I agree that Adams should be moved upstairs but that would mean kicking Hinsh out which is unlikely.

"I know this sounds oh so NSC. But a guy i work with has just had a 2 calls from his DAD to say Adams is out and Barry is in."
"The person who this came from has a SON who plays for the Albion, "
so you must work with a brother of a player then?!!

If anyone seriously wants Lloyd back even as a caretaker, they cant have been watching when he was here last time. 2 good seasons out of 8, even 'GullsEye' put out a celebratory T-shirt when he left, THE only decent thing done under the Bellendi/Archole regime.
I would rather Knight go the whole hog and manage the team himself(we all know he wants to) than have Lloyd anywhere near the team again.
