Southampton (4 Viewers)

I didn't realise what a mess they were in 2009, fans paying the wages, admin, relegated and points docked.Look at where they are now. I really rate Adkins.

We need to do the same. Admin and relegation and start a fresh next year. Its the only way out of this mess.

I think luck has a lot to do with it. I mean, look at Pardew. He was rubbish at his previous clubs and he's doing alright now. It's money, that's all. If you put Alex Ferguson in charge of a team like Grimsby and didn't give him any money then he would struggle. Give a fool like McAllister £200 Kerbillion and he'd be a football God.

Its not Adkins, they have the 5th richest owners in England. They spent millions when they went down in to league 1.

But Adkins wasn't in charge of Southampton when they were in league 1. Alan Pardew was.

He definitely was in charge of Southampton in League 1! From about January. And I don't think Southampton were top when he took over.

Sorry, I meant when they spent all their money.
