    but it's predictable. Here's hoping he gets a gig with a CCC side and has a good career. Even though he was a central defender who played for Arsenal, I kind of like the guy. He seems straightforward and knowledgable. In a profession full of Megsons and Redknapps, he was a refreshing change

    Damn you, Harry!

    Its not Harry's Fault. He inherited a decent side.

    Jensers, I respectfully disagree......to some degree. Don has a very fair point, Harry left mid-season and took his top lieutenant with him, you know the guy who almost got into a fist fight with Roy after the game down in Portsmouth.....ok, back to my point. Indeed Harry left Adams with some good players but, he 'Harry' abandoned the team, this had a clearly devastating effect on morale, and the took his right hand man, and then took Jermaine Defoe, and then one of their best defenders, name forgotten, left the team as he saw the writing on the wall. The deck was stacked against him the moment Harry left, so....at the end of the day it is Adams responsibility to get them going again, however Harry leaving when he did, left P'mouth in shambles in doing so. Had Harry stayed they would most likely still be in the Top 10.

    I hear you...

    But - The club let him go - they needed the money. The players were allowed to leave - once again - they needed the money.

    Harry won them an FA cup... He left them with a decent side that was certainly able of taking care of business - and they were obviously happy to let him go for the money based on the speed of the change.
