Everyone is 15 or more years younger than Hodgsonsoapboxsam said:Reasons Against Adkins :
GlassesNigel
56 years oldHasn't won Premier title.
Cafc fans love to moan
Went to university
Born across the Mersey from Liverpool
Reads poetry
Ex Goal keeper
Reasons for Adkins:
Three times promoted from League 1
Physiotherapist
Intelligent
Good man manager
Calm under pressure
15 years younger than Roy Hodgson.
Very good tactical manager
100% support from me who ever Thomas Sandgaard picks; unless it's Steve Evans or Tony Pulis.
Karel Freye would be problematical.
Charlton fans have been underwhelmed since 1921.

After he’s isolated in a hotel for two weeks !ShootersHillGuru said:Can’t see it being announced until Thomas is at The Valley. When’s he due in ?0 -
Having studied the records of all the available options there is one stand out candidate. Respected by all at the club , put Matty boy in his place and doesn't take any prisoners - Tracey Leaburn3

Adkins 1/3 now0

A pessimist will say that was poor, an optimist would say he built the foundations for them to thrive the following season.killerandflash said:

2014/15 - they finish 5th under Nigel Clough with 71 points
2015/16 - they finish 11th under Nigel Adkins with 66 points
2016/17 - they finish 1st under Chris Wilder with 100 points
A realist will say one good season doesn't make a manager as one bad season doesn't make a manager.

Looking more like Adkins, just gone to 1/3 on Skybet, so just waiting for the announcement now0

Jacket or Pullis ?peterreeves said:Please let the gods of footy NOT give us Nigel fecking Adkins!
This would be a massive step backwards.
Kenny Jacket or the Cowleys, even Pulis but not Adkins. If he got the job over JJ you wouldn't blame him for not hanging around.I’ve just spat my tea out reading that .0 -
How is a manager who has won 3 promotions from this league, plus a promotion to the Premier league a step backwards?peterreeves said:Please let the gods of footy NOT give us Nigel fecking Adkins!

Jackett nor the Cowleys can match that.4 -

Well good to see how my comment prompted a response! Look..its just my opinion but Adkins i think is a mistake but hey no doubt we will find out soon enough. Sorry to bedsaddick for spitting out his tea!cafc_se7 said:

No one of reasonable mind and sound character can consider Adkins a step back from Bowyer. It’s not Howe or Wilder, but it was never going to be.peterreeves said:Please let the gods of footy NOT give us Nigel fecking Adkins!

I think that’s probably more to do with people having a few quid on him. The bookies don’t want to risk big payouts.eastterrace6168 said:Looking more like Adkins, just gone to 1/3 on Skybet, so just waiting for the announcement now2 -
An appointment to really capture the hearts and minds of Charlton fans. There will be a scramble for Season Tickets that for sure ...

Don't like the way he writes his 'E's, and the nose on the smiley face is poor.Leuth said:Here's the note Adkins left his Southampton players after he was sacked
I think after Bowyer we may be entitled to a bit more wholesomeness about the place. I know you don't necessarily win anything being a nice guy, but players ARE humans...

12:30 8 Jun 2019comes across as a decent bloke in his interviews and a good manager. its actually refreshing to see a manager sack a club for a change.491

Actually, do open up the comments beneath that BBC article and give them a read. They should allay some doubters' fears.5

When a manager's first name is the single biggest demerit to his appointment, maybe it wouldn't be such a bad appointment.
Hell of a demerit, granted9 -
Not my first choice, but I don't understand the hate towards Adkins; he's won promotion out of L1 three times. Would personally love Michael Beale. Matt Taylor, Daniel Stendel or Russell Martin also good shouts imo.
Love JJ but not convinced he's ready, think any side above the bottom six would've finished us off at 2-0 last night.0
