    Totally agree. I've nothing against them being made to go into tomorrow after such a poor display, but I can't see how making it the norm will help us in the long term. All work and no play doesn't just make Jack a dull boy, it also risks him getting burnt out and losing his enthusiasm for the job. On top of that, it probably won't go down too well with his nearest and dearest, risking further disharmony and discontent.

    Today shows clearly we need not only another striker but a busy tackling midfield player to boost the team,

    He lets goals in that should be saved, Best defenders in the world make no difference if he cannot save simple shots, A better keeper and we would have got a point today and bet Adams sees it the same

    Ropey keeper looking at that, as a team they looked all over the place.

    Be fair son. That first goal was a worldy and 99 /100 it wouldn’t have it the roof of the BFD end. Can’t blame the keeper for that.

    The second, I need to see again.

    He was on his knees when first went in over his head, If he had stood up he would have saved it, Second one most Amateur keepers would have stopped it, 25 yards with little pace it just bobbled past him

    Have to agree. Real amateur performance from ROD today. Like you say , why did he dip to his knees for the first goal? And the second it was like in slow motion. Wouldn't be surprised to see SH in between the sticks from now on.

    One bad performance in the midst of two very good ones is not a disaster. Learn from it and get it right next time I fully expect a good win next week against Wallsall

    Why did he leave Pompey ? Why did they get out thought and out played by Harrogate? ( Their fans , not me)

    It’s relative , just the same as our defeat. I don’t lose sleep but it doesn’t make opposite winning managers as world beating “ good managers”. Look at his complete record . Is it better than Adams ? I don’t know but sure as hell doesn’t say he’s better.

    Bad day at the office but not beaten by a better manager .

    Out muscled by the sound of it. I was reading the report of their game midweek where the same was done to them they have obviously worked on it and it was their day no need to panic though

    I haven't mentioned anyone mocking our club I asked if fellow posters thought we could/should have done better with the first goal, we had chances to clear it, and even when the defenders failed to do their job could ROD have done better.

    I believe Adams always brings his squad in Sunday he mentioned it the other week when we'd won the guy interviewing him asked if this would get them a day off and he said he brings them in Sunday.

    So, in a nutshell, they lost on Tuesday and got a kick up their arses and although lacked quality they had a load of effort.

    We, on the other hand, seemed to reckon we'd just show up and win and now our players will get a kick up the arse. Let's see how they respond!

    One thing that is nagging me... Do we have a plan B if plan A isn't working? Today would say we don't unfortunately. I hope I'm proved wrong otherwise every team will grow their grass long and play hoofball.

    ROD concedes a hell of a lot of worldies.. The amount od worldies he concedes you would think he is playing in the champions league or world cup… These worldies are all due to his horrendous positioning
