Based on one win ? The last 'legend' here didn't do so well second time around despite the original hype.

1 swallow does not make a summer,i am glad he got the job and whatever happens between now and the end of this season i think if supported on and off the pitch we may have found ourselves a little gem in Mr slade,i stuck by our last manager and all those before him,i cant see myself doing any different now,he talks the talk and i have a sneaky suspicion he will back up the words with positive play on the pitch,4 goals from open play? cant remember that happening in many a year.
But the thread is not saying he is a legend - that's what I'm trying to get across. He's not a legend because of one 5-0 win. It's saying that here is the potential for a legend:
- distinctive look & style (?)
- good communicator
- track record of doing well with few resources
- personality and passion
- rapport with the crowd
- a never say die attitude
- doesn't molly coddle the players and demands effort
- ability to motivate
- and yes, a good win after one week in charge.
I would say certainly the potential to become a legend at Brighton & Hove Albion.

Think as mentioned before, the guy looks the part, i.e Motivator, Coach, Speaks the part, Shouts the orders and get's the respect.
I am confident more now than in a long time that we will go up to walsall tuesday night and get the 3 points and scruff it out!
Think some Russell Slade t-shirts will be selling soon around the Withdean!
There's lot's of people on here with photographic imagery let's get some designs going!

I wasn't going to bother trying to explain it yet again! Thanks for that Doug.
How many times do they have to tell you

Tell you what, you're not a moron the making, you already are. How you can get so excited after one win against a very poor team is ridiculous but I guess you're just too stupid to realise it. Hyping people up tends to end in failure and when you grow up you might learn this.
POSSIBLY And under Adams we played a fair few worse teams than Yeovil and didn't come anywhere to 5-0
Errr.....where did that come from?
I'm not hyping him up - I'm making exactly the opposite point. But I am saying that the guy has the potential, the raw material, some of the key elements, that people need in order to go on and become a legend. All I have tried to do was explain the thread to you because you seemed to be getting the wrong end of the stick.
And now on top of thoroughly misunderstanding a simple thread concept you have gone bonkers with a bit of un-called for personal abuse.
Take a chill pill, take the time to read my comments properly, and I'll accept your apology by PM if you aren't man enough to admit on here that you have seriously got this wrong.

I dont agree about Scunny,my mates a die hard Scunny fan and he reckons their there for the taking at the mo,too many players have Wembley on their minds and are not fully committed.He says if we keep Hooper quiet we've got a chance.

You just get the impression you are not going to see players played in the wrong positions etc etc.
So nice to hear his interviews after the games rather than the errrrrrrrrrr eerrrrrrrrs from Adams.

Shall we save on the petrol and not bother sending a team to Scunthorpe? What a ridiculous defeatist attitude. Good job the players didn't think like that at Leicester, Peterboro & Millwall!

Yeovil had won four in a row when Slade left - I think he told the board a few home truths and they did not like it

This is exactly what is so good about him. Yeovil had won four in a row when he left but have only got two points from seven since he left. Doesn't that tell you what a good manager he is. Looking at that squad you wonder how he did that.
That bodes well given the alleged reasons behind Wilkins' departure then.
