Well...
it's the option I believed the board wouldn't take, and the first I heard of it was on 5 Live driving home from a pub quiz on Thursday night. My mouth fell open at that stage, and I felt a huge mixture of emotions inside. Disappointment, bewilderment, frustration, anger, sadness... I thought about turning my back on my team and giving up my season ticket there and then.
I slept on it, and didn't feel quite so bad on Friday morning. I knew that I wouldn't give up on going, and I'd be at FCR next season giving the team my full backing. Congratulations to Neil. Every aspiring manager has to start somewhere. I really want it to work out for him. I really hope that after the Board's exhaustive search for our next manager, that they really did have the very best candidate under their noses all the time. I know Adams will stop at nothing to repay the faith the Board have had in him, and aim to repay us for enduring the turgid 18 months of football we've sat through.
What is clear is that whoever we employed, there would be always be voices of discontent. You're never going to keep everyone happy all the time. I was thinking this afternoon, the majority of Derby fans voiced their anger at the appointment of Schteve MacLaren not long ago. I can't think there would be many, if any, dissenting voices tonight despite the play-off defeat.
Neil could be a spectacular success... fingers, toes and everything crossed. Should it not be the right appointment, it will certainly be a watershed moment for the entire NCFC board.
