Nigel is not in charge of transfers. Sid Littles interview made that perfectly clear. I'm sure they consult him but it certainly isn't his say.

You're absolutely right and I've been saying this for some time NA has no say whatsoever in transfers NC in any event isn't talking to him! Its wrong for fans to keep asking NA where the signings are - he doesn't have a clue because he's not consulted. is this a way to runa football team? I think not.

What a load of old tosh Saintly, how do you know that NC & NA arent talking?
And do you really believe that NA has no say what so ever on transfer targets?
Never heard so much cr@p!
We are a Premiership football team, run as a professional organisation, we have a scouting network across the world so of course NA doesnt go to games across the world thats what we have scouts for, players are identified by the scouting network, potential targets are identified, watched, then team SAINTS, NC/LR/NA and all the other coaches decide if that particular player fit the bill, age, attitude, past history, fitness ect,ect, then if any deal is to be done NC does the business, that is how every Premiership football club is run, professionally!

Sounds to me like the DE is treating their earlier speculative articles as a factual basis for later stories.

What a load of cr-p. Of course they are talking . If they wern't NA would be long gone. This whole setup is the vision of NC. He persuaded Marcus to buy the club and he has a vision to take it all the way. Nobody is going to get in his way and there is only ever going to be one winner in any conflict. The fact is both are great for the Saints and long may it continue.

You say an awful lot!, I would love to know where you get your information from?
If it's all true you must be NC's dog sitting under the dinner table!

I dont want to be Anti-Adkins as he is a good man who has done a fantastic job, his enthusiasm and character is infectious, but i do feel he has made some huge tactical errors this season. Ignoring the cup as it would of been a club decision not to 'give it a go' last sat. The latest tactical issue occured at Stoke when winning and having the opposition down to 10 men, Nige takes off any width we have and went 5 at the back inviting pressure, when the done thing is to normally keep the ball and make the pitch as big as possible for the oppo, in the same game he also only used 2 subs with SRL and Jay Rod both run into the ground and a game in desperate need of pace! This added to flaws in summer transfer window and further tactical errors against Utd & Wigan and ongoing goalkeeper farse, I would love nothing more than Nige to lead us forward into NC's vision, but could Adkins be out of his depth?

Terrific!

Their keeper's obviously been learning from Kelvin regarding bringing attackers out of position by making it *look* like you are about to lose control of the ball even though you know exactly what you're doing. Oh yes..

I do dislike seeing kids that young playing on full size pitches, though.

We need to watch out for that lot and sign a few of them up for the academy.

It's true! He's back in 'light training' apparently, which suggests his return might be sooner than the 5 games predicted this week.

I don't think you are coming across as a mercenary, it is just an opinion which you are perfectly entitled to, shouldn't have to defend yourself about that, I just ask you to keep the faith and be patient for a while, at least until the end of the season, we will know then whether things have worked out. I like many don't think a change of manager will help us at the moment because a newcomer would only have the same ammunition to work with. The hire and fire separtment? Who knows? There must be some round pegs out there looking for round holes, finding them is something else.

Think you have hit the nail on the head, i can not see Nigel as a yes man. Remember his stance when we were trying to get him from Scunny ??. I believe he is his own man and do have an input to who comes through the front door but, all the the talking to close any deals is solely done by Nicola. This is the reason we hear nothing about transfers while other clubs seem to be buying up all the best players. This will never change so get use to it. We do need players and we need them in now but Christmas has gone but our chances of staying in the premiership have not.

For me NIGEL is the man to take our club forward. We had a five year plan to get where we are and we done it early. So dont expect to win this league in the spare time that Nigel has created, we hav'nt heard the next plan or time scale of when we will be at the other end of the table.

Nigel is not in charge of transfers. Sid Littles interview made that perfectly clear. I'm sure they consult him but it certainly isn't his say.

You're absolutely right and I've been saying this for some time NA has no say whatsoever in transfers NC in any event isn't talking to him! Its wrong for fans to keep asking NA where the signings are - he doesn't have a clue because he's not consulted. is this a way to runa football team? I think not.

What a load of cr-p. Of course they are talking . If they wern't NA would be long gone. This whole setup is the vision of NC. He persuaded Marcus to buy the club and he has a vision to take it all the way. Nobody is going to get in his way and there is only ever going to be one winner in any conflict. The fact is both are great for the Saints and long may it continue.

Serious question? How do you feel about the, albeit remote, possibility of Portpin becoming owners of P%mpey again?

Sacking Nigel Adkins would be ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.

Even if you think he's not done a good job (I think he's done very well and is on target to achieve what he would have been asked to do) now would be totally the wrong time. We are on the up.

You only have to look at clubs who have stupidly replaced managers who were doing a good job to see that it simply does not work if you are banking on quick results.

Blackburn, Forest and Chelsea have all just managed to either create a bad atmosphere from disgruntled fans or have absolutely zero impact.

The only benefit of sacking a manager mid-season is the initial surge it can bring in optimism and spirit.

Sacking Nigel would create the opposite.

Of course the interesting thing would be (as happened with Pardew) that most people on here supporting Nigel to the hilt today would likely resort to the 'in NC we trust' response if anyone questioned the decision to sack him.

Whether the decision kept us up or not, I'm more of the opinion that the life-blood and soul of a club is about doing the right thing.

That is why sacking Nigel couldn't be justified in my eyes, apart from the fact that it doesn't make sense from a footballing perspective.

MGRA I like you but it seems you keep listening to the wrong people, we don't know anything, so stop stirring it up with unsubstantiated rumours, if you have proof by all means, produce it with a hard and fast source, otherwise keep it to yourself, as it is undermining the faith, for no reason other than getting yourself some attention seeking, and it also encourages the trolls. Facts and truth, that is all we want. Inuendo and rumour comes under false, abusive and mailicious and should be avoided. I am all for free speech but there are limits, I would rather have boring factual opinions than complete B/S.

Exactamundo Osprey. If you cant substantiate your claim then whats the point of posting?
My mate says his Dads brother worked with a bloke who once saw NC buying a kebab.. well my mates dad told me NC doesnt like NA..

Well, I have it on good authority that Glenn Hoddle is to be unveiled as our new manager, the reason being he has established a direct link with Alf Ramsey through his medium. If it's proof you need I suggest you follow this link

The actions of the people that have run P%mpey into the ground are scandalous. Some of their decisions and practices were bordering on the criminal. Don't you agree?

Never heard so much cr@p!
We are a Premiership football team, run as a professional organisation, we have a scouting network across the world so of course NA doesnt go to games across the world thats what we have scouts for, players are identified by the scouting network, potential targets are identified, watched, then team SAINTS, NC/LR/NA and all the other coaches decide if that particular player fit the bill, age, attitude, past history, fitness ect,ect, then if any deal is to be done NC does the business, that is how every Premiership football club is run, professionally!

There is disquiet in the camp. Yes chairman and manager aren't talking, Kelvin been treated badly by NA, this has rubbed off on other players resulting in the majority of players wishing NA would leave and can't wait to see the back of him. The captain is injured and won't be back until late February / March, Fonte who replaced Lallana as captain is injured and out for 6 weeks. Who will be captain now? Not Davis as he won't play so who will lead the team? There is no leader! No new signings. None likely. Defence now weakened and NA who is under enormous pressure to win causing him to make what are frantic substitutions.

Now stand back and imagine you're a player in that ethos will all that going on around you. Disharmony, unhappiness and despair but you're asked to honour and perform for 90 minutes and win a game. It's asking a lot isn't it? No, I think it's asking the impossible.

Until this mess is sorted and it needs to be sorted by the chairman as the captain of the ship it wont go away. It will get worse and the result? Bye bye Premier League!!!!

Likewise I agree with Milton Road about the Pompey fans.

In my opinion it is a far easier to win a cup (an easy cup run really helps) in comparison to staying in the top flight for 27 years.

I would far prefer to have a successful league season than a cup run.

If Pompey think they are a bigger club the easiest way to compare is by looking at our attendances when we were in League 1 to that of the attendances Portsmuff are currently getting at Notarf krap...... No more needs to be said!

When all is said and done one must have a certain sympathy with fans of the blue shirted cub.Think kindly on those who go to their away matches, firstly they invariably get beaten which must be disappointing, but what is absolutley soul destroying is they then have to go back to Portsmouth.

surely you can do better than this?

or is it that you have finally realised that you have nothing to say?

your last few posts on this thread have been bizarre and clearly demonstrate a lost argument (or a very very poor attempt at winding people up)
Mind you, maybe its that your frustration is showing through and you are just lashing out in anger because Saints are in the Premier League, playing great football and so continuing their proud history in the top flight of football. Your club, in comparison, well its not really even a club any more is it. Just a bust entity, taking up a league position that it doesn't deserve. An administrator who is clearly milking every last penny he can get out of it all and a Trust who don't have the money to make it even a going concern. Not only that, you still don't know what the judge is going to say and the situation gets worse every day - don't even have a training ground anymore.
Oh but apparently they are going to keep the academy going because 'that is integral to the future'. I heard that the Trust want to make it like our Academy (bet that hurts, to admit that you want to be like us)
I wonder. When there's no money in the pot, no future, no ground and no possible way of surviving.... what's the point of trying to save the academy when it's not even that good?

Anyway, you keep bleating about your history, we'll keep looking to that lovely bright red and white future.

Never-the -less, this season, the pair have had a rude awakening, they have discovered that the Premier League is the toughest and certainly the fastest in the World.
NA has had to adapt quickly and under pressure and he has done a good job with limited resources.
How can people criticise him, when many of Saints opponents, have on their substitutes' bench, players with combined transfer fees, three or four times the value of the entire Saints squad!
I don't believe the claims of some posters that NA doesn't have any say in who Saints buy and sell, no man with any pride and guts, would accept that.
Hopefully NA's and NC's experiences in the first half of the season, have opened their eyes to the quality of player they need to sign this January,
The signings made last summer were, IMO a waste of a golden opportunity and money.
Saints future in the PL and NA's at the Club, will depend on who Saints buy and sell during the next few weeks, let's hope for all our sakes they choose wisely.
For NA to state he's not interested in signing a goalkeeper, is hopefully a ploy on his part to confuse other clubs and agents, if it is his genuine belief, then he is signing his own and Saints' death warrant.

For NA to state he's not interested in signing a goalkeeper, is hopefully a ploy on his part to confuse other clubs and agents, if it is his genuine belief, then he is signing his own and Saints' death warrant.

You're absolutely right and I've been saying this for some time NA has no say whatsoever in transfers NC in any event isn't talking to him! Its wrong for fans to keep asking NA where the signings are - he doesn't have a clue because he's not consulted. is this a way to runa football team? I think not.

What a load of old tosh Saintly, how do you know that NC & NA arent talking?
And do you really believe that NA has no say what so ever on transfer targets?
Never heard so much cr@p!
We are a Premiership football team, run as a professional organisation, we have a scouting network across the world so of course NA doesnt go to games across the world thats what we have scouts for, players are identified by the scouting network, potential targets are identified, watched, then team SAINTS, NC/LR/NA and all the other coaches decide if that particular player fit the bill, age, attitude, past history, fitness ect,ect, then if any deal is to be done NC does the business, that is how every Premiership football club is run, professionally!

There is disquiet in the camp. Yes chairman and manager aren't talking, Kelvin been treated badly by NA, this has rubbed off on other players resulting in the majority of players wishing NA would leave and can't wait to see the back of him. The captain is injured and won't be back until late February / March, Fonte who replaced Lallana as captain is injured and out for 6 weeks. Who will be captain now? Not Davis as he won't play so who will lead the team? There is no leader! No new signings. None likely. Defence now weakened and NA who is under enormous pressure to win causing him to make what are frantic substitutions.

Now stand back and imagine you're a player in that ethos will all that going on around you. Disharmony, unhappiness and despair but you're asked to honour and perform for 90 minutes and win a game. It's asking a lot isn't it? No, I think it's asking the impossible.

Until this mess is sorted and it needs to be sorted by the chairman as the captain of the ship it wont go away. It will get worse and the result? Bye bye Premier League!!!!

Between 2004 and 2010 our club was in a spiral of decline under very poor directorship and minimal investment. During this period, on no less than eleven occasions salvation was sought by getting rid of the manager.

Since September 2010, under wise control and with substantial infrastructure and squad investment and under one manager, we've enjoyed a spiral of success.

Supporters are behind Nicola and Nigel for very obvious reasons.

Markus planted an excellent seed in well prepared soil and a strong tree is growing. Those who want heads to roll are rather like those impatient gardeners who keep pulling up the plant to see if the roots are growing.

They should throw in the trowel.

five trophies I am so disappointed with this post. surely you can do better than this? or is it that you have finally realised that you have nothing to say? your last few posts on this thread have been bizarre and clearly demonstrate a lost argument (or a very very poor attempt at winding people up) Mind you, maybe its that your frustration is showing through and you are just lashing out in anger because Saints are in the Premier League, playing great football and so continuing their proud history in the top flight of football. Your club, in comparison, well its not really even a club any more is it. Just a bust entity, taking up a league position that it doesn't deserve. An administrator who is clearly milking every last penny he can get out of it all and a Trust who don't have the money to make it even a going concern. Not only that, you still don't know what the judge is going to say and the situation gets worse every day - don't even have a training ground anymore. Oh but apparently they are going to keep the academy going because 'that is integral to the future'. I heard that the Trust want to make it like our Academy (bet that hurts, to admit that you want to be like us) I wonder. When there's no money in the pot, no future, no ground and no possible way of surviving.... what's the point of trying to save the academy when it's not even that good? Anyway, you keep bleating about your history, we'll keep looking to that lovely bright red and white future.

2 win something. your top ambition....... (bet that hurts, to admit that you want to be like us).haha

What a load of cr-p. Of course they are talking . If they wern't NA would be long gone. This whole setup is the vision of NC. He persuaded Marcus to buy the club and he has a vision to take it all the way. Nobody is going to get in his way and there is only ever going to be one winner in any conflict. The fact is both are great for the Saints and long may it continue.

It should be the club who has the vision it's not all about NC it's the leibherrs money they own the club not NC ! how arrogant saying there will only be one winner when it comes to making decisions that's no way to run a business it's no wonder he is disliked by so many people!!
Look at the idiots we have been linked with by Cortese -Christian gross is unbelievable and totally useless and di matteo got the sack at WBA cus he was **** the krankies could have won with that squad at Chelsea maybe they will be linked with us next what NC needs to do is to bring in some experienced defensive cover straightaway not **** around with johnny foriegner who will take to long to settle in !!

Against Villa. Boric in goal and the only changes will be Clyne returns at right back, Cork to midfield, (Davis out) Ramirez returns. Rodriguez up front with Lambert.

Probably the best NA thinks he can put out. Personally I'd like to see Spider rested and replaced with JWP and Shaw rested - he will burn out having played too many games on th run for a 17 year old.

Lets see and wish the team goof luck. It's going to be cold it may even snow!!!!

In their short time together, NA and NC have presided over more success than Saints have had in donkey's years.
Winning promotion is a great achivement in itself, winning two on the trot is outstanding!
Never-the -less, this season, the pair have had a rude awakening, they have discovered that the Premier League is the toughest and certainly the fastest in the World.
NA has had to adapt quickly and under pressure and he has done a good job with limited resources.
How can people criticise him, when many of Saints opponents, have on their substitutes' bench, players with combined transfer fees, three or four times the value of the entire Saints squad!
I don't believe the claims of some posters that NA doesn't have any say in who Saints buy and sell, no man with any pride and guts, would accept that.
Hopefully NA's and NC's experiences in the first half of the season, have opened their eyes to the quality of player they need to sign this January,
The signings made last summer were, IMO a waste of a golden opportunity and money.
Saints future in the PL and NA's at the Club, will depend on who Saints buy and sell during the next few weeks, let's hope for all our sakes they choose wisely.

According to Rsoul there is no money so what do you think we can do to address that particular conundrum? We need a couple of signings now, if we are to survive, I don't have the answer.

Just before the war, when most of the country were concentrating on bigger issues, I was awarded a certificate which I have kept in a frame and has remained my proudest achievement. In the1970s my friend was awarded the same certificate, so that in terms of qualifications we were equals. But while he thrived and made progress in his life, both financially and socially, I am ashamed to say I fell off the rails, ran in to financial difficulties and resorted to crime and misguided deals to try and survive. My friend on the other hand enjoyed regular holidays to Europe and always set aside provision for his family to have a proper future. Several of his offspring went on to achieve international success. I travelled little, apart from a couple of embezzled trips to Europe in the 00s, and made no provision for the future of my family, never considering it important.
I am now homeless, living rough, but still have in my big bag the framed certificate plus another that I stole to make me feel better. I have very few friends left, although those that are can be vociferous in their support for me, and am generally despised by society.

My friend lives a comfortable existence, despite only having one certificate. He has loads of friends and family, is respected in society and his grandchildren have a promising and secure future. I am very jealous of him.

My question is - which of us is the bigger man ?

American bison (buffalo) tend to graze more, and browse less than their European cousins, and thus have a different anatomy including having shorter legs and keep their heads lower. The European Bison are therefore a bit loftier. The American buffalo is a bit sad about this, and therefore like to tell everyone that they are just bigger and better. However the bison is better adapted to fighting whereas the buffalo is easier to tame. The European bison also has much more history about it, and as such there are more stories to tell about the European Bison. From memory the European bison still exists in four or five countries today, whilst the Buffalo is only seen in one.

Their ranking has dropped a little since then

Bournemouth
Portsmouth
How they must envy a superior club like Bournemouth.

You can't make custard in a buffalo!

You can't wash your hands in a Buffalo

You can't make the anagram 'O! A bluff!' out of bison. Grief! This waiting for Messi to role into town and sign up is really dragging on, isn't it?

American bison (buffalo) tend to graze more, and browse less than their European cousins, and thus have a different anatomy including having shorter legs and keep their heads lower. The European Bison are therefore a bit loftier. The American buffalo is a bit sad about this, and therefore like to tell everyone that they are just bigger and better. However the bison is better adapted to fighting whereas the buffalo is easier to tame. The European bison also has much more history about it, and as such there are more stories to tell about the European Bison. From memory the European bison still exists in four or five countries today, whilst the Buffalo is only seen in one.

what a load a bullocks....

Doesn't explain why the put cowbells on the cattle in Switzerland, can't be that their horns don't work.

I agree with your comments. Providing we stay up this season i believe we will go onto bigger and better things. At present we do not have enough quality in the squad to compete at this level, therefore it is vital that we strengthen and do so quickly.
How I wish for the mediocrity of mid table.

You can't make custard in a buffalo!

You can't wash your hands in a Buffalo

You can't make the anagram 'O! A bluff!' out of bison. Grief! This waiting for Messi to role into town and sign up is really dragging on, isn't it?

American bison (buffalo) tend to graze more, and browse less than their European cousins, and thus have a different anatomy including having shorter legs and keep their heads lower. The European Bison are therefore a bit loftier. The American buffalo is a bit sad about this, and therefore like to tell everyone that they are just bigger and better. However the bison is better adapted to fighting whereas the buffalo is easier to tame. The European bison also has much more history about it, and as such there are more stories to tell about the European Bison. From memory the European bison still exists in four or five countries today, whilst the Buffalo is only seen in one.

what a load a bullocks....

Doesn't explain why the put cowbells on the cattle in Switzerland, can't be that their horns don't work.

Never heard that one before I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even worse why would anyone go to Birmingham from Buffalo..they would think they are in Portsmouth.

Ref 8.54 post as well:

Buffalo Bill. His last public appearance was at Portsmouth just two months before his death.

Wow - that man had taste

....did he die due to the fumes he inhaled there? ;O)

I think he will play too. Personally I think Kelv was our senior keeper and Gazza brought in for the future. If we're not happy with Kelv and want to bring in a senior pro to replace him then I think we can do much better than Boruc.

The thing is whoever he picks could easily make a balls up and then the usual suspects will jump all over NA for picking the wrong one!

I wouldn't see a mistake by any player as the managers' fault ....... a mistake is just that , no amount of training can eliminate it . the trick i suppose is picking the player least likely to make a mistake whilst being confident he'll be brilliant as well ...... like i said .... glad it's not my decision .

I remember one of the managers (can't remember which one as we used to change them like the skunts change their players) telling me that some players can be outstanding in training but freeze in a match and others can be mediocre in training but lift their game on match day. I suppose it depends on how much you like to perform in front of a big crowd. If we've got some that are nervous of big crowds we could lend them to poopey.

You can debate team selection all day but subject to injury most of the team picks itself. The one position that is a nightmare is keeper. Nigel is critised on here over that but at the same time we all variously come down in reasonably equal amounts with all 3 of them proving the impossibility of the choice!

I'd have Boruc in there. I don't have a problem with him and game by game he's very definitely settling. I speak as one who thought he was AWFUL after his first two games but I reckon he'll be fine tomorrow and then onwards.

He was very shakey against Arsenal but was rightly given a further chance in the cup. He didn't take it, mishandling and not making any notable saves despite lots of opportunities!
