    Wasn’t that Edin’s routine, pitch with some grass on it or a striker?

    look at those at the top of the civil service and can you say they are the best of the best of the service or they have got their jobs because of who they know/went to school with

    He said nothing I didn't expect, he tried to make it out we were the team who looked likely to score first during the first 15/20 minutes then going on about forced changes, yes Cook had to come off he was no use to his team mates or himself by staying on.
    The Threlkeld sub altered nothing he's been average/poor all season, very little between him and FDC IMO we all know that is a position that needs improving, once again he showed nothing positive with regards his changes, after 60 minutes were 1 - 0 down showing little with regards creativity going forward so he goes like for like a defender for a defender, ironically having a left sided player playing the right full back position whilst having a right back sat on the bench.
    He says Sutton has been hit the hardest with Covid so if the kid is still struggling why have him on the bench, maybe when Threlkeld goes off we chance Sutton and push Kelleher to RB Songo along side Paudie with Sutton in midfield at least it would have shown a bit of positivity.

    Tuesday nights fans forum should be like entering the gates or hell for Sparks and Adams.
    I hope anyone who is going drags these two over the coals, they deserve it.
    What they have served up to the fans for the past five years is totally dreadfull.
    Empty promises and hot air, enough to dry every fans hands.

    Sadly he's a boosterist Boris Johnson type - projects what he wants onto reality and then hides away when reality bites.

    And didn’t the vote go in favour of a decent pitch?

    Well that was apauling not one city player can hold their head up after that one it was a disgraceful performance. Zero intensity and zero quality. To be schooled by Gibson is an embarrassment. I don't care if he scored today and I have nothing against him but he is a below average player at this level who looked like a championship player due to our teams lack of effort and intensity.

    Alot of people pointing at Adams its not him its the players who go on the pitch and they need to take responsibility. We know they can do it we've seen it this season but they haven't got close to the minimum standard for any professional footballer playing for any club today.

    It did. What a mistake that was. We played much better when it was a constant mud bath.

    promoted so far above his ability you would think he was a civil servant. ………..what do you mean ????? Explain as I’m a civil servant!!
    im sure that says “civil servant” as a collective!! You know like, prison officers, border control, dvsa, etc etc. Probably some of the lower paid skilled jobs in society and often undermined especially on social media and forums. As for ones who have got jobs for been at school with someone can you give me a couple of examples. Code of conduct forbids me to mention any names but I’m interested what society in general think of the “civil service”

    RT. I'd have to agree. That spineless performance was down solely to the players today and was as poor as the JD days.
    It's not that hurt but annoyed. Total lack of desire, win that second ball, link play, work between the lines.

    Next Saturday, Town play Swansea for a fiver. I'm gonna take in a championship game.

    I want to enjoy football.

    Ive got a season ticket but I'm thinking twice about the Salford game. The football is utterly soul destroying, the squad is shocking but Adams also has to take a share of the blame for actually making us worse than we were under Trueman and Sellars.
