Absolute madness, how on earth can he get the sack, gotta be more to the story

Lunacy!

Replaced by Mauricio Pochettino

Joke. Hope they go down

I hope we go down can't believe thus rubbish

Completrely agree, always like Saimnts my nearest premiership team when growing up - joke decision

if ever there was a case for unfair dismissal

A little bit of my Premiership heart dies every time one of these stupid decission is made.

Bonkers !  was starting to get them out of it too...

Lot of my mates are Southampton fans and doing their nuts!

I was on Pardew next out too  ;grr;

This is one of reasons I'm falling out with the game.

Turning into a complete joke.

Never rated Pardew tbh... he doesn't mind though as that idiot gave him an 8 year contract lol

Should've got 3 points at Chelsea obv, insane  ;dingdell;

Andy Crosby (adkins number 2) was dropping his daughter off at school today so he must have known it was coming already.

Total joke that he has been sacked. I have never seen anyone motivate people like Adkins can. Devestated for him but he won't be out of work long, looks like Blackpool next. I hoped that Southampton could have held on for the season :(

Surely he'll wait for a bigger job than Blackpool?

I think he'll go into the Championship, and would be snapped up by many teams there

Also hails from the North West too I believe

yes he does.

I can't see it being Blackpool either.

Possibility of a bigger jobs coming up at Birmingham/Wednesday/Leeds?

Utter joke. Seriously, what more could they have asked from him?

he deserves it George. Trouble is there are not that many big Jobs available. I hoped he would get the chance to prove himself in the prem with The Saints and attract the attention of the big clubs.

Hope not, I'm on Thompson at 20s...

La liga table when Espanyol sacked Pochettino. Gl Southampton.

not really comparing like for like, as the Espanyol budget was cut massively a few months before he was sacked

the previous two years - mid table - he was seen as one of the up and comers in Spain


Not defending the appoitnment, just pointing out that there is usually a story behind what the league table tells you

This is about on par with the bonkers decisions being made at Forest too.

I'd be delighted to have Adkins as manager.

Getting fed up with top level football TBH, it seems no chairman has any kind of patience any more, it's madness.

Just the tip of the iceberg for me in what has turned me from a die hard football fan who's day of game and day after was determind by the result of our game to a meh who we playing today fan.

Just one of a whole host of senseless sackings in recent years.  Do they really think they are going to do better without him?  The fact that their price to go down has got shorter this morning suggests otherwise.

My interest in football dies week by week as this kinda of idiocy along with professional cheating being justified for monies sake just making a laughing stock of the entire set up!

Hope he gets into a decent club really soon

Exactly my thoughts.

Used to be a season ticket holder, now it's like "oh well, lost again"

Can't even get fired up about Derby v Forest tomorrow.  This game made me nervous on match days, don't care 5 mins after the final whistle nowadays.

yeah you are of course correct tighty but Adkins would be better at the Saints till at least the end of the season. I would not even have bought in Jose Mourinho at this present time. Adkins should have been contender for manager of the month.

They bring in the new guy to meet the long term ambitions of the club. I bet their chairman does not back this up with the money needed to be a top level club.

I think it's a bizarre decision, but didn't Southampton spend a good £30 million in the pre-season on Ramirez/Rodriguez etc?

It might be misguided, but if the owner thinks that should secure an upper mid table place then I think it is there own business if they are putting that cash up?

unbelievable imagine turning up for work every day not knowning whether your going to get sacked!!! horrendous!

Adkins to Huddersfield pls :)

as a saints fan i am still hoping this is an april fools joke

Obv it can't be nice but tbh I don't feel that sorry for the managers, they're lucky enough to get employed by complete clowns who give them 5 year contracts just to sack them within a year and have to pay them abs chunks of money, they'll be alrite.

Yep - the Chelsea job is a meal ticket in that regard.

Im godsmacked by this awful decision, personally met him and thought he was doing a great job for us, as did 99% of fans i believe!

Crowd were singing plenty of praise for Adkins last night. Never saw the game but was some applause for him on 56 mins.

Can't wait for Adkins to take charge of Blackburn in 6 weeks time.

I'm hoping Sheff Utd break the bank to get him in tho there is probably more chance of finding rocking horse shit in the back garden.

I don't feel sorry for Adkins. I mean one minute he's the physio at scunny and the next he's a millionaire with his pick of championship jobs, WAL imo. Surprising Southampton appoint a manager without a pedigree in English football tho.

Who needs Mourinho,
We've got our physio.

Oh the sweet memories.

You don't need a replacement, unless Special Agent Wilson is planning a repeat of his Wednesday heroics.

Why the 56th minute?

His IQ is 56?

It might be time for a change now mate, Saturday was the last straw for me, played with a 1 nil lead and against ten men and spent most of the second half defending. they are paying Kitson a good few quid coz he has quality and experience, he got a booking and Wilson was str8 off the bench and panic subbed him. What's the point of having someone there with his experience and then subbing him for a young guy that ran around like a headless chicken for 30 mins in a spot where experienced heads should know how to exploit the game.

He would have taken him off later anyway given his fitness levels but Wilson then had the cheek to say the players are nervous at the moment. it's his job to stop that happening and panic subbing you best player and just defending a 1 goal lead instead if going to kill off ten men is another sign of him creating the nervousness.
