Adams can do nothing wrong and Gannon could do nothing right

[Chopper Harris]

Some of the posts that have been written about Adams and Gannon in the last 18 months have amazed me.

 

Micky Adams has been in charge now more or less for a few seasons and we have achieved absolutely nothing. When he took over we were a mid table League 2 season and sure enough we have finished mid table again this season. In my opinion even without the points deduction we weren't good enough this season to make the playoff or go up. Quite simply the team/squad isn't good enough and when you compare it with the likes of Swindon, Shrewsbury then i m afraid we deserve to finish where we do. Even smaller teams such as Torquay, Cheltenham have overtaken us. Micky has had an opportunity today to set the stall out for next season. To clear the decks and release players like Haldane, Pope and Rob Taylor who are nothing more than average mediocre League two players who may have a good game once in a while but are simply not up tot the task of firing us into League one. I just can't understand his logic in keeping them. Haldane and Rob Taylor have under performed for a few seasons now. Some of the criticism been fired towards Mickey today is fair in my opinion. He has for a few seasons now extended contracts for average players like Yates and seems inept at finding new talent. I m sure that Micky would have offered Yates a new deal if he was out of contract and for me he has been awful.

 

I think a lot of supporters were expecting a lot more players to be shipped out today in the belief that a lot of the current squad are not good enough. IF Jim Gannon was manager currently i would have put my house on him chopping and changing the squad and getting rid of the players who don't score, can't cross and can't even pass to another player in a white shirt sometimes.

 

Some supporters on here will defend Adams come what may yet slate Jim Gannon all day long. Adams hasn't achieved anything yet in how many years. In my opinion he has had a good crack of the whip and really has got to get us into the playoffs at least next season. Anything less will be just be a failure. He has been given more than an opportunity and a number of seasons now to get it right.

 

A lot of supporters hate Gannon but he would have at least cleared the decks and got some new players in who hopefully could at least pass to each other. A lot of what he said was true about the squad not being good enough and Roberts being out of control and a drunk. How we as supporters laughed at him. Yes Gannon was not exactly a people person according to the squad but maybe thats because he was telling them a few home truths. He would have released a lot more players today and i think his squad assessment is a lot more accurate that Adams'.

 

Personally i don't think either Gannon or Adams are capable of getting us into League One. I hope that i m proved wrong.

Let's see what Micky does this season he has failed to sign any decent players himself yet

Is this a wind up tonight?

 

Why have we suddenly decided that next season's already a write off? Has something happened that i've missed?

Dunner worry thee sen!

 

Haven't you got shell suits to buy and hairdresser appointments to book?

I don't agree Micky should be gone now. He should be given one more season. WE can't afford another season in ****ty league two after 2012/13. Adams is ok but not the messiah. We should see what he can do with a bit of cash in the summer.

Are you suggesting I should "calm down" ;)

Stop conforming to stereotypes!

 

Racist!

So Adams only offers half the squad contracts and for those who are offered only half actually accept then he is truly in the mire. It seems perfect sense to offer them one year contracts this year and extend those who deserve it throughout the season.

 

Gannon can't man manage himself never mind a team!!! Muppet.

You're all just a bunch of miserable ****ers, that's the crux of the matter.

The fact is, that JG was far too clever for the players and management at PVFC. He was a stop gap and will unfortunatley always be referred to as a bad manager due to having no backing from day one.

[Valiant in Brum]

I was looking forward to the idea of a new coaching set up as well, Especially a new assistant and coach. But same old vale promote from within.

[billys biscuit tin]

for those who thought Gannon was in some way a good manager or mis-understood in some way, can i remind you of Exodus Geohaghon!!!!!!.... and his insistance of what a great player for team he was!!

 

Jim Gannon was and is a complete loon.

You call him a muppet because you don't like hearing the truth, which is that this squad is unbelievably mediocre, and Micky Adams isn't the great manager you think he is.
