    Change the manager if you want but the problems will still remain ............ the club is a mess let down time after time by a bunch of cowards who don’t care :(
    They sold McCall down the river last season only to magically pick up when he went.
    They did the same to the Sellars and Trueman last season when we had a good chance of at least getting into the playoffs
    The same is now happening to Adams seriously how can you rely on a bunch of proven cowards ?????
    Let’s at least give Adams a window or two to sort this mess out before we line up the next poor sod to fail

    If Adams with a proven track record of getting teams promoted out of this league isn’t given time then god knows where we go from here :(

    Why join the club knowing you didn’t have control of the recruitment when you wanted it? Also why sign a 3 year deal if you wasn’t so sure if you would be in charge?
    We’ve gotta stop making excuses for him. No one else has had this many excuses made for them as a city manager. I am not advocating for sacking a manager again but let’s at least be honest about it
    He’s built an injury prone crap squad who play crap dire boring tactics and would rather draw than go for a win in the game. He has slagged off the players again too and also the hierarchy on previous occasions already this year.

    He’s hardly got himself much credit in the bank so far and he won’t be backed by this owner in January unless he moves players on.

    It was ok during the first half it was working but the 2nd half was a non event :( he tried to change it but when your bring players in who ain’t gonna get you back into the game then what can you do ?????
    Me personally doesn’t matter about the tactics of the players ain’t got the heart for it then your indeed in bother :((
    It happened with Bowyer,McCall,Trueman and now Adams once these lot go a goal behind they go into hiding :( this sadly has gone on for years now

    He did exactly the same on Saturday, aimless punts upfield to a maligned Robinson.

    As I posted yesterday last night was my first away game of the season.
    After that performance it will probably be my last for a while as well.
    Looking at Tranmere’s line up it didn’t take a rocket scientist to work out where their defence is strongest.Peter Clarke has one skill as a footballer-heading the ball.It’s what he does best and what he’s done ALL his career.Why keep persisting with just launching the ball when it clearly is bread and butter for a defender like Clarke.
    The one time in the first half we put a few quick passes together on the floor it resulted in a great goal.
    It’s so frustrating when before a game starts the majority of fans can see certain opposition players strengths but we just blindly play into these strengths and then wonder why our tactics don’t work.
    I genuinely thought before the game started that “on paper” that looked a decent team.
    Shame that it didn’t look the same on the grass.

    And stupid decisions as well.
    His decision to try and take a quick free kick when we are 1 -0 up 5 minutes before half time was so poor.
    Basic game management.

    Sacked from a less clubs than Parkinson, if you want a new manager who’s proven to be successful elsewhere and never been sacked then you’ll be looking on the same place as we all are for them mystical billionaire owners who will throw their wealth at us…

    POTENTIAL RETURN: Andy Cook has not played for Bradford City since the end of October but could feature at Tranmere Rovers tonight.

    What do I need to read again.

    As I posted I wouldn't think he'll start but seeing him on the bench would suggest he's not that far away.

    Last quarter of an hour, we have shown some real quality. Not just the goal, lots of good movement and link play. Good to see.
