Adams: Yes, I'm interested in Saints job
6:33am Friday 25th January 2008
Comments (137) Have your say »
FORMER Saints player Micky Adams has thrown his hat into the ring for the vacant manager's job at St Mary's.
Adams made over 150 appearances during his spell at the Dell, between 1989 and 1994, and has previous managerial experience in the Championship with Leicester and Coventry.
He guided the Foxes to promotion to the Premiership in 2003 against a backdrop of financial difficulties.
The 46-year-old joined Colchester United as assistant boss last summer, but left the role earlier this month.
Adams said he would be very interested in returning to the club he loves, this time as manager.
"Obviously, it is a job that would interest me," he told the Daily Echo last night. "I am available for work.
"I had a fantastic time there as a player and I would very much like to repeat that as a manager."
Adams said he would decide in the next few days whether to make a formal application, or wait for an approach from the club.
Both the Saints PLC and football boards met yesterday. The meetings were pre-planned but discussing a successor for George Burley jumped to the top of the list of priorities.
The appointment process is not expected to be a swift one as Saints have had a raft of applications and declarations of interest.
They are sifting through them all to create a shortlist.
From there, a decision will be made as to whether to go straight to one person or, more likely, go through an interview process.
Once that is done, the three- man panel of acting chief executive Lee Hoos, chairman Leon Crouch and football board director Lawrie McMenemy, who will conduct the interviews, will present their recommendation to the boards and the new man will be appointed.
With so many people interested in the job, it won't be an easy decision.
MK Dons manager Paul Ince is the favourite with the bookies after reports he met with club officials yesterday.
The Echo understands those reports are totally untrue.

NO WAY!!!
I'm sure he's a nice bloke and of course an ex-saints player, but,
assistant manager at Colcherster?
you're kidding me!
We'd be going so far backwards if he was appointed manager.
We need a manager with experinece!!!!!

The heart says yes, but the head says NO!
The only Ex Saint I would want is Dowie and that is not going to happen.
There are so many Candidates, but the only two that would fit are Coleman and Hoddle. They are available and have the credentials, the fans in general will take too them(Eventually in Hoddle's case!).
It is a No Brainer, if either accept go for it and get winning games and climbing the table!
The Transfer Window is not open for ever!

Sorry Mickey, we need someone who's going to play football and win. Hoddle could do it but no-one wants him here and it's pointless to go backwards, anyway.
Take a punt on Coleman. Proven record, good with tight budget, difficult owners etc. Even if he is Welsh! (Personal prejudice...)
Otherwise, Ince, Shearer, Johnson?
For the time being we're stuck with deadbeats Dodd and Gorman, so we're out of the Cup tomorrow and no points agaist Norwich on Tuesday, the season's over now. no chance of a play-off place unless we get someone good in now.
Sorry to see George go but wishing him all the best - he deserves it after the brainless abuse he's suffered in these columns at the hands of so-called supporters.

His last job isn't a reflection of his ability, otherwise many managers would never work again.
He did well with Fulham, Brighton and Leicester, getting two of those clubs promoted in his first season. Didn't do as well at Coventry, but he's not a bad manager, but I would still prefer someone with no connection to the club like Coleman.
Worth pointing out that as far as experience goes, the people wanting Paul Ince should be aware he's only managed 68 games and nearly all of them in the lowest division.

No doubt would do a steady job for the club as he did as a player, but that's not what the club should be looking for.

Hoddle had his chance with Saints and preferred to go to his boyhood club...why give him another ?
Coleman did nothing special with Fulham, Allardyce would be ok if we wanted to see long balls to one up front and Billy Davies is a clone of George Burley.
The championship is about scoring goals and playing attacking football - we don't do that at the moment. We need a manager with a bit of tactical awareness (can't be hard when compared to the last one) and that will make a few brave substitutions to win a game. Draws are no good in this division.

This article came up on the Coventry City area of newsnow.net, just reading through your commecnts and I have to say as a Coventry City supporter, I was relieved when Adams was finally pushed from the hot seat here. I voted for him to come to club at the time, off the back of his success with the 'scum' at the other end of the M69. But when he got here, he brought awful players in (which isnt fully his fault as we were £38M in debt at the time) but there were fair better players availabel. I think the one thing that I didnt like about him was that tactically he was bewildering, he would play people out of position even when we had players for those positions playing well and fit (usually sitting on the bench). Adams is also very much a 'mates' type manager, he tends to have his favourites and sticks with them regardless. The only good thing I will say for Adams is that he brought Michael Mifsud i, although I think that was more to do with the scouts insistence than Adams judgement.

A lot of the names being linked to the job, have mediocre track records to say the least, none of them would set St Marys alight, however Ince or Shearer would an immediate impact on the whole club. We are all aware that either of these 2 would probably treat the club as a stepping stone, but they would have to do a great job for one of the big boys to lure them away.
As I have mentioned before, we need to attract, not only quality players, but potential investors as well, and I'm not sure that the other names could do this.

Regarding training and players living in the SO postal area. Portsmouth FC run a 'Football Missionary Service', where they try to bring quality football to 'football deprived' areas. It is a tough task, and someone has to do it.

Hoddle isn't an option - he's ruled himself out.
Billy Davies would be awful.
Micky Adams is a nice guy, but not exactly inspiring.
It's a shame we can't afford the Big Sam and little Sam combo.
Shearer still loves the club. He could draft in some old playing colleagues as coaching specialists - Flowers (Goalkeeping - also friends with ex coach Dave Coles), Le Tissier (Free Kicks/Penalties/ how to be effortlessly brilliant!), Benali (Tackling!/Commitmen
t). The desire would be there, and maybe it would help to bring a bit of pride back into the players in the squad.
When you think back to the players we had when they all played together, and the number of goals they used to score (Rod Wallace, Alan Shearer and Matty all chasing each other to 25 each for the season!) before Branfoot got involved - they all grew up and played as a unit - and some of the best football we've seen Saints play in the past 20 years.
It might not be as daft as it sounds.
Also: Why do we seem to read so many stupid, time-wasting comments from Portsmouth fans on this site? Nothing going on at Pompey?
And why do the Saints fans bother to reply - they're all ridiculous half-wit comments. Ignore them and they'll go away eventually.
A bit like a bad smell.

Would you have reservations about mark hughes for being welsh, or alex ferguson for being scottish? I wouldn't class the negative comments about Burley on this site as brainless abuse, but i wonder if any welsh people consider your Welsh comment to be just that..
I too wish George all the best but i'm very glad to see him go. the only thing that seemed to be brainless at times was his management.
We have as much chance of winning our next 2 games under Gorman and Dodd than we did with George still here. So lets see some positivity if you are a 'so-called supporter.'

If you're looking for someone to give the club a short-term surge of energy and belief, and make the players think twice about going back into the dressing room after a poor performance, I think it's him.

There are probably a number of managers that could do a good job ... if Saints had any money to spend ... but they don't.
The reality is ... we don't have a single player capable of making a Premiership starting line-up at present.
We are what we are ... a Championship outfit!
We need investment!!!
Saints cannot progress until it comes!!!
If we did have money, we would then be able to attract the RIGHT kind of manager.
This club is going to appeal to lots of managers currently out of work, but only because they are out of work! It is after all, going to be a pay cheque for somebody.
Any manager with real ambition is going to steer clear.

Ince has the same amount of experience in the championship as coleman. namely none, but.....
Number of sackings for Ince:0
Number of sackings for Coleman: 2.

G.S.got us to 2003 cup final opposition on that journey to Cardiff oposition not strong Tottenham excepted 3rd round at home home ties except millwall replay.
agree with your opinion of Hoddles time at St Marys.
Fulham retained their premiership status with Coleman in charge.Coleman resigned from Real Sociedad according to news reports ,no need to question media,therfore sackings for coleman 1.reality check where are fulham at this moment in time,on their way to the championship? hope i have answered the question
actually no problem with Ince,just believe that Coleman is a better option. Please be bothered to explain the rest as you are obviously a supporter that has seen a lot of changes and whose opinion needs to be respected

ever since then i've been a big follower of his career even after he left saints.
i know this seems to be a pointless story but my point is that even though i am a fan of his, and as a saints fan i'd love to see someone with saints in their blood manage us, i'm not sure if mickey is the man for us. i think it'd be a big gamble. in his earlier career he showed promise as a manager but lately he's fallen away slightly.
i'd still make chris coleman the number one choice, but wouldnt be dissappointed if it was mickey adams if he can get back to how he started his managerial career.
