Adkins would be a proper coup and I'd expect him to make us play passionately and attacking at least.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

What does Nigel Adkins do? He takes his team up  a couple of divisions.
I was at Glanford Park, in the Carlisle end as a guest, when Scunthorpe produced a champagne performance to gain promotion to the second tier (Billy Sharp and Jermaine Beckford scoring the goals in a 3-0 victory) a few years ago.
Then, Mr Adkins went and did it again with Southampton but with Premier League football the spoils.
Then, they dumped him for Mr. Pochetino when he'd just started to put some results together.
Reading didn't give him a chance i.m.o. - where'd he go next? Barnsley / Sheffield United - can't remember offhand.

My view - this guy can take Town up a 'notch' or 2. This is what he does - (with the right support). My hunch is that he would relish the Grimsby challenge, because he knows that we are ripe for what he does best.

I don't know much about Dave Jones but I'd interested to see what he has in his locker.

Adkins at evens - can't really believe he'd come but it would be a.m.a.z.i.n.g if there were something in it! Wow.

Adkins dropped to evens over the last couple of hours, now he's just dropped again to 1/3 within the last few minutes.  I reckon Sky contacts know something...
