    That goal we conceded was comical. Looking back at it, not a single player covered themselves in glory. Players jogging back,Paudie getting turned inside out, Songo kicking air, O’Donnell parrying the ball back into the feet of the striker, Rideleigh ball watching, Canavan an Paudie standing on the penalty circle doing nothing whilst the port vale players are alert to the situation, Foulds not being quick enough to get back on the line.

    I suppose you cant blame Adams for being overly defensive in his tactical setup when the team is making silly mistakes week in week out

    Yep I forgot about the lad Eisa, that's a reason I don't think he will spend money on a striker and any we may be looking at will come with a premium. I think Adams could use the loan market.

    Jesus christ what was Songo'o attempting to do with his feet there? :scream: That ball should have gone into outer space.

    Angols header was really well placed.

    Robinson also taking up some good positions to receive the ball.

    No need yet to rely on team’s imploding we just have to match are chance making with better finishing performances are getting more consistent and we have performed well against the top teams recently we need to continue with that

    It's plainly clear what we have to do. As it stands at this stage of the season we don't do the plainly clear on a consistent basis.

    Anyone know where we were in the league this time last year? We must be closer to the top seven now…..

    We should have loaned Songo'o to Avenue instead of Staunton. He's like a cart horse in that defence.

    Finishing shot choice passing in the final third all that good stuff

    No way are we fixing that on the training ground these are attributes of the players they can't finish for toffee!!!

    Don't forget I said before the game there's no reason we can't win at PV the only thing that would stop us is finishing and guess what lol the same story again and again

    People need to understand there is nothing knee jerk or reactive about doubting that this team will go up because it's based on the entire season we are a broken record loads of chances can beat anyone theoretically but in reality we don't beat enough teams because we're sooooo bad in front of goal

    We will finish 10th I reckon and next season we go again WITH Adams please let him get the right players in because it's not a case of coaching these lot or training them it's a case of they don't have enough goals in them between them despite all of the chances we make

    We are NOT going up even if it's still possible

    In fairness, he was at Salford who are a joke of a club. He's looked class for us. His touch and movement are way above this level. He played 8 games for Manchester United's first team 7 years ago, so he's clearly got great ability. With a bit of confidence I think he could get 15-20 goals this season.

    He’s been very well managed by Clarke. Could be Tom Pope esque if he carries on.

    You call that a bouncing away end :laughing::laughing::sob: mate what planet are you on?

    I agree with you from the numbers standpoint, 886 for a lunchtime TV game is fairly good for mid-table league 2, but my god the game sounded like it was played behind closed doors.

    From the tv there was a couple of faint “come on city, come on” chants when we had a corner but aside from after the goal that was it - dead.

    Not denying the travelling numbers for a midday tv game was good, however it didn't come across like it was bouncing on TV. I presume it was the siting of the broadcasting team?

    Depends what you are judging it on. If you are going back to my days as a teenager then you have a point. By todays standards it looked a good day out (I wasn't there dut to work commitments).
