Scroll down to listen.
Adam has deleted all of his social media accounts due to some of the hate received for his question to Tonda. It has all been blown out of proportion. Adam just said that some fans were worried about the lineup, but were proved wrong. Tonda snapped back thinking his decisions werw being questioned after a win, he is a fierce, intense character after all, but some fans have resorted to abusing Adam Blackmore online. All a bit unnecessary. I don't think Blackmore was being rude, just could have worded the question better. [Post edited 16 Oct 0:25]

The issue is that Blackmore cannot stop banging on about Spygate, darkest day in clubs history (utter nonsense), how he would of sacked Tonda, etc.
It's no wonder Tonda has very little time for him.
That being said any abuse online is ridiculous and, unfortunately, is representative of where we are at in this day and age. | | | |

Adam Blackmore is in the employ of the BBC, who instigated a witch hunt against Tonda, Blackmore towed the party line, assuming Tonda would not survive. Thankfully the club resisted that pressure and Tonda now has the last laugh.
Blackmore has made his bed and will now suffer the consequences - an uneasy and prickly relationship with Tonda. A miscalculation by Adam - hard to be sympathetic to him, but obviously not deserving of online abuse. | |

It’s not before time in my opinion that someone queried Mr Blackmore’s approach. In my view he has in the past had an over inflated view as to what his job as a B B C journalist employee entails.
To me, he gives the impression that he thinks he is a member of the Saints management team. In particular when he comments on Solent during and after match days about team selection and tactics.
He needs to understand that although he hosts the pre season Fans Forum, after that Tonda and other senior management don’t answer to him.
As for people giving him abuse on social media that’s totally out of order. By all means state strongly held views on an open medium such as The Ugly, but it should never ever become personal. | |

He led the campaign against Tonda down here and wanted him sacked. So, if Tonda doesn't treat him with kid gloves, it's understandable.
I believe Tonda got a hell of a lot more abuse online than Blackmore ever did, partly stirred up by BBC Sport's campaign against him. |  |

I stopped listening to AB towards the end of Ralph’s time with us
His admiration and friendship with him clouded his journalistic judgment imo
After every defeat the questions were asked with a ready made answer ie “So Ralph, another defeat today for your injury ravaged squad”
On a different note, does Lewis Coombes support Saints? Or is he there for South Today
I’ve seen him outside the family stand at every game I’ve been to this season |  |
