100% Nigel Adkins for manager, this guy is the real deal, but sadly before i get excited about the prospect, i just don't think he'll come!!!! But i hope i'm wrong big time!!!!!

I can not believe they sacked him the mind boggles it really does, they say managers don't have any loyalty but it seems neither do clubs he took them from div 1 to prem and just outside relegation and starting to play okay and he gets the boot

I'd love to be a fly on the wall at Blackburn and Bristol's board room this afternoon haha.
Don't get too exited. Karl will need to demonstrate his ambition by promising to spend, and we all know how hard that'll be. Just maybe the pressure will tell. He could go from zero to hero in a week.
Interesting times

They say things happen for a reason, maybe just maybe, with all the doom and gloom that has gone, we may just have fallen on a gem in Nigel Adkins, if we can get him, as you say Sher, looks like rovers fans are ready to fall on their sword now. Karma is a beautiful thing ain't it! I'm done with the Oysten thing but if he can pull this off, i think he'll restore alot of people's faith!!! Cmon Karl, go get Nigel!!!! UTMP

Hopefully I'm right, but I can't see Karl going for Badkins after the illegal approach he made to Matty in the summer and then the way he lied through his teeth about it.
Whatever limited managerial ability the man (and I use that term loosely) has is, for me, completely outweighed by his complete lack of integrity and moral fibre.
I would say bringing Badkins in would be the worst thing to happen to my club since Billy Cartmell fired Allan Brown but, on reflection, it would be even worse than that

April, i understand what has gone before, but like people keep saying Karl is a businessman and a good bit of business in my opinion is to get the best man for the job, if that is what Karl is after, then i'm sorry mate but that is Nigel Adkins! I believe if Karl appoints and backs him, he could lead us back to the promised land, and feelings aside, if he can do that, in time, you will back him!!!

2 Things there, Rob
Firstly, I don'y believe Adkins has that ability, he just got lucky
Secondly, for me at least, the loss of our clubs integrity and decency that would come with Badkins appointment is too great a price to pay
Like I've already said, if we appoint him, I won't be setting foot inside Bloomfield Road during his tenure

April sorry but I think you are wrong Adkins has proved himself with Southampton. Some luck is always required in football, but you do not get a side promoted 2 successive years and then make a reasonable fist of life in the Premier League if you do not have some ability. Also with regards to the approach for Matty we might try to do things the right way but this is football we are talking about and tapping up goes on all the time.
I personally feel Adkins would be perfect for BFC if Karl could make it happen.

Thing is that he is not going to take a job straight away is he? the pay off from the saints will probably see him taking a winter break for a few months

Can't see it being Phil Brown (despite his orange colouration) after all, we've only just got rid of one loser ex-Nobber!!
