10/1 ON to get the Blackpool job,according to SSN.

This is one of the strangest sackings this season (and let's face it there have been a few).

Great reward for the back to back promotions and on course to stay up. QPR and Reading won't believe their luck!

i whole heartily apologise for starting a thread announcing Adkins had been sacked I never knew it would upset so many because another thread had started 20 mins earlier ,
I was watching sky sports news when the announcement was made and thought I'd make a quick thread on NSC about it
Once again I apologise for offending the NSC thread starting patrol

Not everybody gets that upset about it. I don't think an apology is needed.....

And if you are being deeply ironic, I appreciate it!

First thing first - Pochettino will be doing a press conference at 2:30pm - with an interpreter - he doesn't speak English !

Just ridiculous!

Incredible. I'm no fan of Adkins but sacking him is just crazy after their recent results.

He's going to walk into another job.

Adkins is a weirdo but still amazed they have sacked him.

New manager that doesn't speak English :lolol:

Best news Harry Redknapp's had all week.

This is a staggering decision. Adkins' mission this season was to finish 17th or better. If I was him I'd f*** off to Dubai for 4 months and then see what jobs were on offer come May.

Small club in Portsmouth.

The Scummers really are just thaT aren't they? Now don't get me wrong here. I don't like smug Adkins but he hasn't done a bad job in taking a relatively little club up to the top flight of English football. With boards like Scummers have, it makes you really apprecIate the class ones like we have.
