    Adams and the players deserve all the stick they are getting tonight, horrendous run we are on andthis crap is just gone on for far too long .

    But I'm sorry, Rupp and Sparks have to lift their heads out of the bunker they are hiding in and tell the fans what they are going to do to get us out of this mess or VP is going to turn very ugly. We have no divine right to be doing better (shit, don't we know it) but the fans do deserve better than this

    View from the other side... You dominated the 1st half, though it was hard to tell if that was because we were so poor with the ball, the wind or if you were playing well. Angol was a real handful, and his goal was a lovely finish. I thought Cooke was your best player in the 1st half by a mile, with some lovely passes / pass & moves. 2nd half, you looked a shell of the team before the break, and then when Jay, Nombe, Ray and Collins all came on for us you didn't look like stood much of a chance.

    Fair play to your fans that made the trip again for another tuesday night, long old poke that.

    At least he’s admitted the recruitment wasn’t good enough but why will it change in January?

    Cheers, you guys too.

    A club like Bradford deserves a better manager than Adams, quite why you'd make 3 subs in the 89th minute baffles me, plus taking Angol off earlier. The guys a complete count. Hope you get the christmas present you need!

    The sad thing about some of the posters on here is that they still believe in Santa and all will be good come January.

    The problem is if he goes, the player's who have frankly been continually abysmal will get yet another chance. At some stage we have got to stick with a manager for long enough for him to get the crap out of the club.
    But Adams is sure making it hard to think hes that man

    Just can't help but think back to last season when Stuart was sacked and T&S took over those same players nearly got us to the play offs
    Was resigned to giving Mr Adams a chance before I heard his post match interview it was a sackable offence on its own merits
    Really sad state of affairs

    Ps the one shame in the interview is, after Adams rant, Jamie asked him so what are you going to do in January? DA continued his rant and Jamie really should have stood his ground and asked him again.

    I did tell you some time ago there is something a bit weird about Adams and the biggest shame is I really thought he might finally be the one to make a difference (he still might ;))

    Coming from a fan of a rival club
    Is this really how other clubs view our manager and ultimately our club

    So a fan from Exeter comes on and says how we dominated first half and collapsed in the 2nd, yet Adams is blamed for playing poor football? Do our fans not get it that the players we have aren't mentally strong enough to see out the win. Do you think Adams said, right forget what you've done first half I want you to try something else?

    Those calling for change are probably the same ones who've called for change the last 5 times and look where that got us. Name a manager who's available and can suddenly get this lot to take their chances?

    Let's say we sack him. To those outside the club they'd be asking, why have Bradford City sacked their 6th manaher in less than 6 years. A man with 3 promotions on his CV and had one transfer window to get it right? What player would want to come here knowing the next guy only gets 6 months.

    As painful as this is right now, we've got to give him a chance. We have an horrendous injury list and no options. Surely I'm not the only one who can see this?

    Wow. That's the most open and honest manager interview I've probably ever heard.

    In one respect; I agree with every word he has said, however, it is the type of interview that would get you hauled over the coals by an owner who cared, if not sacked.

    Not sure how the players will react to that either.
