Micky Adams leaves Sligo Rovers !

[Pops]

Cambridge?

[bookworm]

I've no doubt he'll get fixed up with another club, probably in our league but very doubtful if he'd benefit us now,we need a root and branch clearout not a rake up of old ashes.

[butt lane vale fan]

Helping Smurf in some kind of role, yes. Manager no.

[Houston Valiant]

No, because he even said himself that he took Vale as far as he could and that he had nothing left.

[Spunk Trumpet]

Took us from 18th in league 2 to 9th in league 1.

Had an early season blip and left.

Now he gets slated by the supporters.

 

Some of you have short memories.

And whe you are banging on about Pages football being the best and most entertaining in years, may i remind you of our promotion season under Micky which was quite magical with the most enterprising forward play we have seen this millenium.

 

Goodluck in your next chapter Micky.

Best of luck to him whatever he decides to do, he should be a Vale legend and always welcome at Vale Park.

Agreed, voted out 3rd best manager of all time after all.

 

Another success for him to add to his cv, well done Micky.

[Yukon]

It was actually a reference to his habit of referring to himself in the third person.

 

Apologies, I thought you were inferring he'd been fired and he just got to the press first. My bad- it had been a long day

Cambridge?

 

That was the rumour round the fans on Sunday.

"I would have him back in any role at the club except as manager. Personally feel he should have a stand named after him. As should Rudgie" (TJHValiant)

 

That's the beauty of a forum... opinions can differ by 180 degrees.

No way would I want him back in any role, and I don't believe he was anywhere near enough a 'legend' to have a stand named after him.

As they say, it's all about opinions.

 

It wasn't so much Micky Adams was a legend but the period of Port Vales history during those troubled times.

Where has he been slated? Most comments on here recognise the job he did but also realise that he couldnt take us any further, for example you missed out his last season in league 1, wasnt as high as 9th was it?

[Rampant Zebra]

I would have him back as director of football, Smurf wanted him to do that eventually anyway I think. Not sure if he would come back though.

A season ain't 6 games.

 

How many managers in this day and age would walk away from a contract, does anybody think Moaninho etc would?

[ELDERBEZZA]

Good luck to Micky and I hope he does well in the future.He will always be special, as he helped the club rise again from almost extinction.The promotion year was ,as ST said earlier ,really exciting home AND AWAY!!To name a stand after him or have him back?No,let's move on.Ater all the great John Rudge hasn't been recognised at the club SO FAR!!!!!!!

The fact is that he still struggled in the start of that season and most on here wanted him gone... He should have left in the summer really when he seemed 50/50 and that his heart wouldnt be in it anyway. Credit to him for walking away.
