    Won't be the first time I've disagreed with the managers call, I can put forward several names who were far poorer today.

    I agree entirely.An assist compared with some completely invisible players didn’t deserve Adams’ reaction from a perfectly reasonable observation from Raynor.
    Seemed like he was that furious when the question was asked he just reacted.
    Like @Biker@Biker said it was a bit twatish when Evans does nowt week in week out yet keeps getting picked

    One assist in one half of football. I'd take that.

    The players didn't play. So effing change them Derek. They've not played well for several matches!

    So Evans and Gilliard do nothing game after game and nothing is said and a player given 30 mins creates a goal and Adams singles him out as poor, Adams has lost the plot just lashing out blaming others for his own failings

    I know its not relevant to today's result/performance after another defeat, but maybe this can put a wry smile on your face, as we and Town found out the second season in the Premier is the season you get found out, and the high pressing game Leeds play can be countered.

    Well what a shocking game of football that was. No disrespect to Crawley but that isn't a decent side we were playing today. Again failing to take two gilt edge chances first half, both Cook and Songo'o with pathetic attempts from good assists. But that shouldn't detract from what was an embarrassing display from the away side and with a manager who refuses to change the starting line of one upfront. You cannot play Cook isolated, he doesn't have the all round game to contribute.
    One word, disillusioned.

    I think you'll be correct come the end of the season but until then we can have a little smile ;).

    Glad to have missed this effort but i do wonder how long Cook can continue his lonely furrow.
    City are going to look tragic without him.

    Pre-season, most of us would have said Cook can get City 20 goals this season,
    But now?

    One of AK last comments as he came off air "Adams will be doing the scouting and signing of players" looks like Andy may have let the cat out of the bag, but that situation wouldn't come as a big surprise to most as we are league two and IMO don't need a full time Director of Recruitment.

    Coincidence Evans returns to team we stop winning.

    Been absolutely useless since signing again.

    Shouldve got rid of him in summer.

    I think Angol will be a very big part of that question @Get Rid Of It@Get Rid Of It, if the lad can come back and start off as he finished, it will be a massive boost if he can.

    The October statement is that they are trying to bring January forward by 2 months. Waiting for No 10 to reply.
