    Agreed. Brilliant that they're giving their managers 1 season to get promotion.

    17 out of contract players this summer and no saleable assets left.

    Sixth season in third tier

    Dwindling season ticket sales

    They are not the Giants of English football they believe they once were.

    They will not attract a big name manager


    I too believe Adkins would have been better the next season round.


    They are screwed.

    Correct. No way can we mount a high horse...or even a pony...on this subject.

    the majority of us arent. we understand that most clubs searching for success go through this process, most of us see adkins as a decent enough manager however and he might have done ok next year. obviously i hope they appoint another david weir and drop through the leagues like a stone.

    This ^^^
    They give the manager a chance to mold a team - just fail to get promotion and start all over again with the next one
