is jake on his way?

Loft can go too... but only Hassocks would want him.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Probably the best move for all parties.

FAO: the poster who said Adams is ruining our youth players, how exactly? It's obvious the man is completely losing it but I don't buy this 'he doesnt like the younger players' bollocks. The only young player who is worthy of a place but he hasnt persisted with is Joel Lynch, and that's partly because he wanted to leave anyway.

IMHO lacks the bottle to be make it in a grown-up team

We do seem to have this thing on NSC, whereby if a player isn't in the team, or has a bit of a strop on, it must be because the manager at the time is a complete fuckwit.

Let's see- Colin Kazim-Richards gives it the biggun on a regular basis: all McGhee's fault.

Leon Knight acts like a big time Charlie: all McGhee's fault.

Robinson doesn't get picked after four or five years of not being a regular- oh, it's not down to his ability, it must be Adams being a bastard.

O'Callaghan gets a sulk on- not his fault clearly, must be Dean Wilkins lack of personal skills.

Hammond leaves- yep, you guessed it, Wilkins can't manage players.

Savage thinks he's worth three times what the club think is a fair value- it's definitely down to Wilkins, and not by any stretch of the imagination Savage's ego.

Joel Lynch gets a cob on when he's dropped, despite being out of form and making regular mistakes: Adams it's ALL DOWN TO YOU!

Does it occur to people on here that footballers aren't always flawless human beings, but also have egos? That sometimes when they don't get selected, it's not because the manager secretly wants to have them exiled to Siberia but because they're not up to scratch? Or because the player has his own agenda (new contract, engineering a move etc)?

I'm not saying Adams is likely to be troubling the manager of the month awards committee any time soon, but come on, you can't blame him for absolutely everything that goes on, any more than you could blame Wendy, or McGhee, or Coppell etc.

I am taking this as sign of the domino effect - Jake moves on and someone else arrives.

Surely should be the other way round

But I told my daughter that it was DEFINITELY Mickey Adams' fault her gerbil died.

Robinson showed yet once again last night why he is not considered by many to be worthy of a first team place. I would have thought the ideal club for him would have been Barnet or Dagenham & Redbridge.

Oh fair enough. And if you study the old photos closely enough, at the very moment the bullets enter President Kennedy's brain, there's definitely a stocky man with a recognisable side parting and an Albion tracksuit, crouching just behind the grassy knoll

It depends on whether you wear blinkers or not doesn't it ? Under whatever circumstances the next manager comes in unless he walks on water it'll be Dick Knight's fault for employing the wrong man.

Exciting for 5 seasons....

Correct - 5/5 for counting skills
