No, not that!

If he is as bad as at dancing as he is at managing, it should be entertaining to watch.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

He was a magnificent centre half though and vastly underrated imo. His leadership qualities and reading of the game made him top class

 

[Farehamseagull]

Could be entertaining or car crash TV. He is a very 'interesting' character!

I would love it if he did a receation of the “Hot Stuff” dance in the Full Monty with an offside pose finale.

 

[Mellotron]

I consider this wonderful news.

He's going to be dreadful, but will win the nation's hearts with his vulnerability and honest appraisals of his ability.

 

[Gwylan]

Blimey, do you have to be called Adams to get on the show?

Wonder when it will be Grizz's turn?

 

[Pavilionaire]

Could be entertaining or car crash TV.

If his partner tells him he's going to smash the Rumba it could be carnage, especially if he's not listening properly..

Agreed 100% - I don’t think wooden does it justice really, and I doubt he’ll be in long, but doesn’t change my opinion of him - magnificent footballer and captain.

His autobiography paperback is a good read...lots about how alcohol took over his life.

He is - and it is!

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Dry for 26 years - good on him. Not sure he should use dancing as a substitute.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

If he is as bad as at dancing as he is at managing, it should be entertaining to watch.

If he is as good at dancing as he was at playing, he should be great to watch.

He isn't!

 

[METALMICKY]

Blimey, do you have to be called Adams to get on the show?

Wonder when it will be Grizz's turn?

You mean Micky surely? " fail to prepare, prepare to fail"

The hard cover version, though.....a bit wooden.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I love that man. I suspect he may well have some neurodivergency issues that are still regarded by most as 'weird' but will be as accepted as nothing in 10 years, much like many things that were illegal in the 60s, or certifiable, are regarded as all part of life's rich tapestry, today.

 

[Easy 10]

I have nothing but admiration for the man. Conquered his demons and came out the other side a better man, who is now dedicated to helping others cope with the issues he survived. And taught himself the piano. A captain and a leader in every sense of the word, good luck to him.
