Micky Adams back at Port Vale ?

[Leekbrookgull]

Just been announced on BBC Radio Stoke that the Port Vale board are set to offer Adams a lucrative three year contract as manager.

Never go back Micky.... Never go back

Never go back, Micky.

Actually, in this case, he's got to take the offer. He might not get too many others this summer.

 

[See-Goals]

Because going back worked so well last time...

port vale is his level

Be interesting to hear what the occasional Vale fans who come on here think. I'd go with "tainted no thanks" if I were a Vale fan.

 

[BensGrandad]

The fors are that they were doing well and apprearred to have a happy contented squad under him. The against is that he left for pastures thought to be greener but then who wouldnt have for the team they have supported since their childhood. They say dont go back but prior to Poyet how many would have had Coppell back here.

I would think it will be good for both sides.

What are you doing Port Vale

 

[Monkey Man]

Sheffield Utd was a crazy move for him - don't blame him for giving it a go but the board must have been delusional.

Port Vale is a much better option, even second time around. He's better off with lower league players and budgets and lower fan expectations. Hope he does well there if he returns.

 

[Franks Wild Years]

Didn't he have a clause in his contract that said if Sheffield Utd came calling he could leave ?
Either way I feel sorry for the guy. Getting the opportunity to manage the team you've always supported and then ending up relegated and sacked can't do much for your head and self confidence.

 

[public school boy]

I wish him the best of luck. If Port Vale want him, they must be looking to go into the conference.

If I was a Vale fan I'd be a bit irritated that Adams was being offered the chance to come back. If he does a good job again, I'm sure he'll simply walk out again for a better paid job if it was to come along.

Adams has proved that he's more than willing to jump ship when something 'better' comes along, on both occasions he ended up getting fired by his new employer. I think that he walked out of Port Vale shows a lack of initiative on their part for wanting him back. There's enough decent managers looking for work without going back to somebody who let you down before.

The grass was also a lot greener at Leicester wasn't it ? He may well have a go at the Blade's board but you would have thought his previous experience would have taught him a lesson. If he'd stayed with Port Vale he could be playing League One football.

If he'd stayed with Port Vale he could be playing League One football.

I think that was his goal with Sheffield United

 

[lichfield seagulls]

FFs tipped Port Vale this season along with Man Utd,QPR,Brighton to go up.

I suppose they can afford that with the compo they received when he left earlier. Probably not costing them any more overall than what they had agreed previously.

tears end in it all will





rearrange to make (what in Mickey's case) is a very well known phrase indeed

I know what you mean, but losing your manager when a better job comes on offer, is just the reality, whoever you appoint.
