Beat me to it. It's crazy. Not as if they are doing badly in the premier league either.

Nature of the beast. One minute the best manager ever the next... It's unfortunate but you are only as good as your recent results and if you are not doing as we'll as you claimed you would or are expected to do, then it's the old Spanish archer for you.

Mauricio someone or other who I've never heard of from Argentina.

Adkins had 10 pts from his last 9 games. That would good enough for a lot of clubs of Souhamptons stature but its clearly not good enough for the man in charge with the money. I suppose its only madness if the new guy does worse than Adkins.

This is utterly insane, but to be expected from a club that once employed a rugby world cup winning coach to a director position thinking the would work!

Also Nott'm Forest sacked their former county cricket director yesterday, is football becoming elitist? :rolleyes:

Find this decision senseless. Adkins record at Southampton speaks for itself really. I have a feeling this is a gamble that is not going to work out for them.

There just ain't no loyalty in football no more, i just don't like the premier league, players and managers who get clubs promoted are just discarded like rubbish.

Mental decision.

I like Southampton as a club (often think of them as similar to us and there fans seem a decent sort), but I kind of hope they get relegated for decisions like this (unless it's at the expense of the Villa of course!)

I only remember it because my father won £500 on a bet for that game and kept the video ever since which I have seen over and over again!

This was a shocking action by Southampton. Shit on Adkins from a great height, I would totally understand it if they were rock bottom but they have vastly improved and a cracking point at Chelsea recently. This was in the frame for a long time, you would bring in a manager like that on a whim. absolutely shocking decision, I hope the fuckers get relegated now, I used to wish them well!!!

It's the type of decision that gets you relegated !!! New bloke doesn't even speak English. Anyone who wins back to back promotions deserves to stop even if the club goes down

The Saints fans will revolt, this will be worse than RB at Chelsea. The man has been hung out to dry , a british manager may I say replaced by an Argentine Spanish football failure.

DISGRACEFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crazy, stupid decision, hopefully he'll go on to do well for himself like Chris Houghton, and yeah, like others I hope they go down now. Nothing against the fans because I agree, for the longest time we were very similar clubs and their fans have been great, but this is one of those monumentally stupid decisions that you just want to see punished in some form
