Smurf fallen out of love with the Messiah ?

How does his win percentage in League One compare with Rudgie's?

 

Its doesn't jean...Adams will never ever get anywhere close to Johnny Rudgie,

 

He was just trying to come up with some facts thinking nobody will notice, humour him, he may go away,

Interesting thread this for a change some nasty vale fans about though

 

Yes mate I can think of 2

each to their own opinion, either right wrong or maybe.

I am the first to admit that Micky Adams, like 95% of all football managers who have ever worked, isn't fit to touch John Rudge's flat cap. My posting of those statistics more in response to stupid comments like "[MA] papered over the cracks". Yes, Micky's style wasn't always the most scintilating, yes he did prop up the board at the time when we all wanted rid but, really, does it matter? *cliche alert* At the end of the day, when he left, we were in a far better position than we were in when he joined - both on and off the pitch.

 

The daft thing about all this is that I don't actually like Micky and was relieved when he left. However, I at least have the nowse to realise that he did some very very good things for us (and am not a bitter old **** with an axe to grind (or someone who keeps calling people stupid but lacks an awareness of even the most basic rules of punctuation and spelling)).

 

One other point: people (IMO unfairly) deride him as being a long ball merchant. If he was so in to kick and rush, why did he go out of his way to sign two out and out wingers? Why sign some of the best midfield ball players we've had in years? Anyway, if that 'dinosaur football' meant that we got promoted, entailed lifelong Vale fan Tom Pope ending up as one of the top scorers in Europe, and gave us results like the ones against Rotherham, Fleetwood and that incredible night at Burton, then give me that any day of the week.

Very much so sadly, way too much bitterness in some folks!

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

Thanks a lot....higher than brain-dead or I should say brain washed.....oooooops still looking in the sawdust.

 

Brainwashed by success?

 

Are you a parody account? :)

He never said he did, nor would any Vale fan that enjoyed both era's.

 

He simply pointed out how floored your bitterness towards a successful manager is, it's quite a logical and obvious argument really.

It would be interesting to know if the idiots that are slating Micky Adams are the same idiots that slate Smurf at the first chance.

[vale in the blood]

Dnt get how anyone can slate micky for what he did for us.he did a great job,and left us in a higher league in better shape, than when he started.

His time was up yes,but worth slagging off... No chance.

No...I just point out the truth.....but sometimes have to inject some humour in my replies for the idiots of a lesser IQ,

 

 

Looks like there are at lease a couple on here......

Sacked by Sheffield Utd, threw in the towel at the Vale ....yes very successful, LOL.

[vale in the blood]

Gets worse on here.

[Memphis]

It's a sign that things must be going okay if people have to rake up the past to find something to moan about.

 

Give it a rest eh?

[vale in the blood]

Seems moaning on here is getting worse.

[onestepatatime]

Seems moaning on here is getting worse.

 

Wait until we lose in the play offs and then see "the moaners" come out in force!
