Just the headlines tell a story...

I see they are still dreaming of Martin O'Neill, as the poll suggests.

Cortese seems to have turned in to a complete twat since Liebherr died.

Sacks Pardew, seemingly because he just felt like it, who had been doing a decent job and would most likely have got them promoted. Offers the job to Adkins, then can't or won't agree a compensation package with Scunthorpe so demands he resigns. Adkins refuses to resign so he withdraws the offer. Then he offers the job to Howe who turns it down. Then offers the job to Adkins again.

I'd be surprised if Adkins, or any half decent manager, would want the job now with all that shit going on.

I suspect he was always a complete twat but Liebherr was perhaps restraining his worst excesses

It's taking them a long time to agree a compensation package, they will end up with someone like Paul 'Huge Ego' Ince and claim he was no 1 choice and then claim they offered the physio job to Adkins not the managers job

Adkins has been confirmed as their new manager. His interview on the Football League Show made it quite obvious what he wanted to do.

Not sure how I'd feel about that if I were a Saints fan. Obviously did well for Scunny, not been a league manager for that long in the grand scheme of things though.

As long as he's shit at Saints, that'll be OK.
