    Only if you dwell on it, remember it doesn’t matter , he’s just gaining his fitness;)

    Not seen anything properly yet to agree or disagree just the Avenue game and odd split second images.

    Not interested in Tyranny’s forum opinions tbh.

    Funnily enough based on last night's game at Guiseley I felt the same about the fullbacks but with more concerns on Threlkeld. He also looks like someone you might have bought drugs from in a 90s club but that's a bit of a random view from me!

    Yeh I don't think there's much between the two of them but Threlkeld seems the better athlete to me.

    Similar to what my AM said who is a Tranmere season ticket holder. He was personally happy to see him go.

    Sparks confirmed we got at least our fee back for him and there's no chance we're paying any wage for him, we didn't need to let him go if we didn't want

    Personally don't care what other fans think of players who have left them. Pretty sure none of TMAC's previous clubs had supporters gutted to see him leave and he turned out well.

    Whilst I'm catiously optimistic, I'm not going overboard on the enthusiasm. I'm seeing the same hyperbole around Adams we had for Bowyer. Chants of 100 points at the start of that season soon went sour.
    The last few seasons have kicked the enthusiasm out of me.
    My big worry is that the club and Adams have already backed themselves into a situation that they can't get out of. Namely if we don't acheive promotion then either Adams resigns or is sacked.
    My issue here is that this once again this puts us back on the managerial merri-go-round.
    Tha lack of stability in terms of manager is part of the reason we're in this league and have been stuck here.
    If Ryan beleives that Derek Adams is the right man to lead this club forward over the next few years then he needs to back him, even if this season is isn't the roaring success some fans think it will be.

    No comparison. Adams is a "proper football manager" in the mould of Parky, with four promotions on his CV, whilst Boreya is a glorified PE teacher who thinks he's the re-incarnation of Brian Glover from Kes. Infact if you photoshop hair on Brian Glover there is a resemblance to Boreya.

    Totally agree with the last sentence. Adams needs to be given two full seasons to achieve promotion and I think unless we are in the bottom five or six (which we wont be) he will get the time.

    I hope you're right about the time. As I said I don't think Ryan or DA help themselves by making it sound like its promotion or bust. It sets an expectation with fans that if it doesnt happen it's taxi time for Del.

    They seem to be happy to make prediction which as you say puts them on the spot, hearing both they seem to enjoy the pressure.
