Did Gus refuse to shake Adkins hand at the end of the match?

Who knows? Certainly sounds like Adkins is trying to stir up something again - as usual incapable of a compliment without some sort of sly dig. Shame Gus didn't shake him warmly by the neck.

I thought that Gus and Adkins shook hands but Tanno didn't and was arguing with Adkins on the way off

They shook hands - I made a point of watching! I would have to say that Gus didn't look very enthusiastic about it.

So in fact as plenty of people have witnessed, Poyet did shake hands with Adkins and yet he still chooses to make an issue of it post-match. Just about sums him up.

Okay okay, I meant it was Oatway and Tarrico that didn't shake Adkins hand.

I definately saw Oatway shake Adkins hand. Didnt see Tarrico though, although that doesnt mean that he didnt.

He didnt. Crosby went across, Tarricco put his hand out, then pulled away. Crosby looked bemused. Adkins came over, Tarricco walked off.

i love tarricco

Yep, legend (not necessarily referring to this incident before anyone jumps on me) His passion during the game suggests it did mean a lot to the squad. His on pitch interview after the Daggers game is quite superb

I'm guessing Tarrico took offense to the 'foreigners' jibe that Adkins had pre match. Referring to events at St. Mary's.

Can't imagine there was any problem between Gus and Adkins as they are supposedly reasonably close having gained their coaching badges on the same course.

It is not surprising that Gus may have appeared a little bit disappointed.
