Having now listened to this and Kings account etc if we had the choice of either getting MR and Adi back Id prefer Adi. I think our previous success was more down to Adi than Robins
Adi even said in the first episode. The manager made the final decisions

They’ve both put us in a position to hire the likes of Lampard and realistically challenge regularly for promotion back to the top flight.So i just listened to this .
Simon sounded a bit choked up at the end , he like many of us were very sad that the whole thing came tumbling down the way it did over that period of time .
But mark and adi really did give us great times , the best actually
Its going to be a hard period to top , it was certainly a great time to be following the club

Yeah it was really noticeable wasn't it. So familiar and friendly about almost everyone he worked with at the club, and then "the manager".Fascinating. Interesting that Adi never once uses MR's name.
Spoke very highly of every single person he encountered at the club apart from 'the manager'.Really enjoyed listening to that , came across very well . Spoke very highly of the club and fans
I don’t think you should expect an interview with Adi to be the source of whether he had a great relationship with every player.Only just listened to the interviews and he's a top person.
Some of the stuff posted on here about him and certain players has been shown as utter bollocks - surprise, surprise.
Of course not but the idea that certain players were pushing for him to be sacked was obviously nonsense.I don’t think you should expect an interview with Adi to be the source of whether he had a great relationship with every player.
Adi comes across incredibly well but also very on message.
As always, the truth will be somewhere in the middle. There was tension between AV and certainly some of the newer crop, in terms of various bits. Heard that first hand from squad member.Of course not but the idea that certain players were pushing for him to be sacked was obviously nonsense.
I don’t doubt it but the idea that players orchestrated to get him sacked was clearly not the case. It was clear the idea of him being labelled as a bully had had a clear impact on him.As always, the truth will be somewhere in the middle.

people desperate for this to be black and white, there can be elements of truth in all strands of what happened.
Really sad thing is the clear relationship breakdown between MR and AV.
Just listened to both podcasts , he doesn't mention MR once by name ,in fact he mentions the Fizzy Moon pub in Leamington more often.I don’t doubt it but the idea that players orchestrated to get him sacked was clearly not the case. It was clear the idea of him being labelled as a bully had had a clear impact on him.
As you said, the main reason was their breakdown in the relationship. Not even being able to bring himself to name MR was very sad.
Great news for him. Shame he’s off there tho would of been a big asset if we could of got him to come backGoing Middlesbrough as an assistant to Edwards
