    Yer, I mean, possibly but Ryan either told the truth - that Adams made the signings and contract renewals last season - or he didn't.

    Final say is different from actually scouting players he wants, he hasn't been able to do that until this window.
    Therefore he gets my benefit of the doubt.

    Ok. I get you. My view is you're being a bit generous. He had enough time to watch us on video and form some opinions. I know he said he'd give everyone a chance but he surely agreed to the signings and either was a bit laissez faire or over trusting or there were some errors.

    I don't think any of us knows the truth.

    While Rupp and Sparks are here he has no chance.

    In terms of Adams - you been dropped so hard that you have forgotten that managers get judged by results??

    This forum and those before, reflects the on field performance of Bradford City. In good times, positive, well meaning post a are aplenty. Flip that around and you have the current posts and negativity.

    You know as well as I do, USG that's the nature of the beast. Football fans, fickle?

    Mangers they are failing should be sacked. Managers are judged by results.

    Problem with Bradford City is that it doesn’t need a manager it needs a Head Coach and until the direction is addressed in the boardroom then we will go nowhere.

    Sparks is out of his depth. Utter clueless! Rupp doesn’t care and now we have allowed a crap manager for us to rip everything up and do what he wants even though he can’t get results .

    We need to work from the top down but Adams as MANAGER should be under pressure because he is FAILING here BADLY.

    To be given time you have to deserve time and right now based on results Adams shouldn’t be given time.

    If you think 2 wins is acceptable then you need to wake up.

    Also listen to Billy Clarke. All this waiting for the transfer window is BS. As a club we are going about things the wrong way and that’s because we doing have the right people at the top.

    Morecambe and Cambridge had players that had been at the club for years and a style that’s been the same for years and years with lower expectations.

    Adams results and style isn’t suiting this club one bit.

    Easy to say keep it on the ground in those conditions, would you have tried to play in out from the back first half rather than ROD trying to hit it long, couldn't believe the stick he was getting from some of our fans, they saw how difficult it was when the Scunthorpe keeper keep finding touch.
    I went in hope of seening a reaction to the second half at Tranmere but once you got into the ground you knew it was going to be difficult all in all IMO for either said to have got all 3 pints would have been an injustice.
    I'm still awaiting a video with the Songo penalty shout we were at the right hand side of the goals so not the best view but I though we had a justified shout.

    If ROD was a decent keeper he would have scored yesterday from one of his kicks.

    As I say mate mine was not the best view from our seat (there's a laugh) never sat down for the whole 90 minutes fans stood up infront of us, but as you say we looked straight at the referee and he waved it away, I thought the referee had a decent game overall he did try and let the fame flow, but as I say I need another look from the camera angle which had a far better view/angle.

    Yes I believe Angols first 4/5 challenges finished up with him on the ground gesturing to the referee he'd been fould, who then waved play on, I'm getting to like this new style of refereeing and not being conned by players the FA just need to change the silly off side rule.
