    Don’t forget he was sacked at Salford in quick time. Saw him on Look North last night, nice talk but had the look of the condemned man.
    Yes it is nothing to do with us but plenty on here wanted him. I was at the Salford game which was his first home game and with no crowd all I heard was a foul mouthed 90 minute rant at his players, little wonder he didn’t get the results to keep his job and only lasted months.

    So do Man City often, difference is some attack and some defend non stop...

    You were probably one of the majority wetting yourself at Rowe and Vernam too

    Failed twice? Which managers at this level haven't? And that now includes T&S.

    Hes also won 2 trophies with 2 clubs in the least year alone

    In a recent interview Sparks said: " I was speaking to a League Two manager" about GPS. Has to be Adams for next boss.

    Im not really into this sentimental “ bring back the old boss” mentality. We got bit by Stuart’s return , I don’t want dejavue.

    Besides he doesn’t play attractive football. There isn’t a Jim and Nahki at the club!

    I very much doubt he would want to come back and generally I am against going back but looking at who is available and who we are linked with not in a job then I would persuade him to come back

    It’s the same with old players.

    I’m struggling to think anyone other than Bobby Campbell was a terrific homecoming??

    Help?

    I wonder if other clubs have this same sort of mindset amongst the fans. Boboy being Bobby it's no surprise he was the exception to the rule, a once in a lifetime player.

    I personally didn't get the clamour from some fans that we ought to be approaching him on the summer. Still glad we went with my first choice in Adams

    The old Christmas Tree formation. Love it, and its the one Hopkin used when we had a purple patch around Christmas and battered a few teams.
