TheAccies 0 Posted January 7, 2015 I''ve been looking forward to this day. Congratulations to Alex Neil for being linked to such a high profile job.I go to every single Hamilton game, home and away, for 3 years. 2 of those years have been a struggle.Alex Neil; A hard talking manager who knows how to get average players to over perform.He has no knowledge of how to deal with big players, and there have been a few bust ups between him and few of the non-scottish players at Hamilton who haven''t toed the line.It''s his system and I worry for you Norwich fans, your team will be selected on ethic rather than ability. Alex Neil''s appointment mean Whittaker will be a Norwich City mainstay for the next 3 years.He plays direct football and many of our goals come from knock downs from the big man, I hope he leaves because I have come to realise one thing...I would rather watch football that excites, than football that wins, just...All the best,Your friend from Hamilton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkchance1 0 Posted January 7, 2015 Think this may be an alias of the individual on the other thread stirring up nonsense. P.s. He hasnt even been in charge at Hamilton for 3 years (he took over in 2013) so how you know hes had one good season and two struggling is probably difficult to prove.

Accies1874 0 Posted January 7, 2015 Hamilton fan in peace.I have seen some contrasting reviews of Alex Neil on here and thought I better put the record straight.I can categorically say that over my 37 years of support I have never seen such a dull brand of football. If you are expecting Paul Lambert MKII then think more like Alex McLeish MKII.Although we sit 3rd in the league it is more through the lucky "snatch and grab" 1-0 wins we have scraped all season.Honestly I hope it works out for you, but I can''t see anything but a young man out of his depth when his long ball tactics fail against the far experienced merchants in that league.All the best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tetteys Jig 851 Posted January 7, 2015 He can only work with the players he''s got. If we win 1-0 and Neil has to come on and score the goal himself with his right testicle from a yard out i really won''t care. When we''re in the top half of the premiership i might start to get a bit more picky like man u fans (or more recently West Ham and Arsenal fans) but for now just wins will do!

One look at Hamilton''s fixtures and results tells you all you need to know. http://www.acciesfc.co.uk/index.php/fixtures-2014-15/spfl-2014-15Thanks to the genuine accies fans who have made the effort to inform us.

Accies1874 0 Posted January 7, 2015 I don''t need to watch highlights because I am there every single home game thank you.Now that you mention it, having watched a few highlights of your games this season, Mr Adams appears to have had you playing the so called passing game, yet a quick read of your forum tells me the majority wanted him out. Perhaps Alex''s way of playing will get results yes, but entertainment it is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 851 Posted January 7, 2015 Well our former manager Lambert was well known for his attacking football with us but at Villa he''s the complete opposite. They have 11 goals all season yet are midtable.Hughton as well. Newcastle sailed to glory in the championship under him scoring loads as they did it. With us he looked clueless as to how we''d score once Holt left.Alex Neil is perhaps someone who just knows to play to the teams strengths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted January 7, 2015 http://www.acciesworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9Highlights of Hamilton''s games this season. Although you can tell the standard is so low due to all the defensive mistakes (I remember the wonderful league 1 days where Holt or even Martin had to just breath on the back of a defenders neck for them to make a mistake), Neil has got them playing some intricate football, nothing ''direct'' - not that that would concern me, more his experience.

kantata soul 0 Posted January 7, 2015 I see a couple of genuine Accies have turned up after those binners appeared in another thread. Having ex-binner Jason Scotland playing for them would obviously alert scum fans to join up pretending to be Accie fans and praising ''their'' manager.I must have missed the glorious football because all I can see is bog standard rubbish that wouldn''t be out of place in League Two or the Conference. Players seem unable to display any skill, keep possession or attack along the ground. Plenty of crosses and players taking the easy way out by knocking it long, very much in the same mould as Hughton and Adams ie very tired and dated.Can someone, maybe Mrs Miggins, point me to the best passing moves from those Accie videos? I''m sorry but I can''t see anything special in any of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
