Although in the game earlier in the season at their place didn't he signal waving a card at the us Brighton fans.. (something along those lines)

It could be true, but he faced no hatred or abuse when they visited Withdean, which is unusual if he'd crossed Albion fans with long memories.

Seemed a gent at Withdean in April/May 2011.

True, he was a lot more of a gent then that certain Adkins anyway

Football managerial history is littered with talkers who non-achieve. They interview well. Chairmen are always impressed by them and the press usually love them, for their good copy. They usually have a ' shelf-life ' of 18- 30 months ( sometimes shorter ) until they are found out. Eventually time runs out on them and the board, the players and the fans all see through the bullshit.
If you are going to constantly spout forth, make sure you can back it up with results e.g Clough and Shankly.
There is a certain manager in the Premiership at the moment, who is overrated, over-promoted and out of his depth. He survives on talking the talk ( lots of it ) and giving off positive vibes all the time. ( not unlike Mr Adkins ) At the moment he is being given the benefit of the doubt and time to make his mark. It won't last. Sooner, rather than later, they will see through him and he will be back on the managerial treadmill, interviewing well, impressing chairmen and starting afresh at another club.
In a lot of industries, blagging and bullshit is seen through straight away. In football, it flourishes.

If you're referring to Rodgers, you're spot on. Talks absolute bollocks and vastly over-rated.

Zigic is on upwards of £60k a week, no wonder Birmingham are in financial trouble!

£60k a week, for 180 minutes work and thesame amount of time training, for that money i'd be very interested in training, listening and working hard. This is a selective comment from Clark and may have underlying motives, but there is a sentiment that players wages are too disproportionate to their input, There are Albion players being paid more than the MD of Royal Bank of Scotland with 50,000 employees under him, etc, etc ,etc.
