Unsurprising seeing as they had been told to do a high press from the start of the game and they must have covered miles today.

You would have thought that DA would have anticipated this and had some tactical changes in mind to protect our lead.

 

Glen Whelan did very little running at all throughout the whole game. Neither did Pitman. I’m still pissed off they got anything from that game tbh.

 

I think he sounded totally pissed off with Eisa situation to be honest

 

What is happening with Conditioning at this club it has hampered us now for the last few years with avoidable soft tissue injuries. It appears we won’t see Eisa again for weeks after doing his hamstring during a
Blxxdy warm up in training on Friday which is criminal. The changes in the summer are not working

 

Didn't Adams say they are back in tomorrow? Surely, a day off would be more beneficial?

Also, it sounded like he was glossing over the fact that Eisa had broken down in training. Unless I heard it wrong.

 

What we need is high-quality consistent players who make few mistakes. The type that play in the Premier. So problem solved. We just need to sign some Premier League players. Oh. Hang on a minute. We're in League 2.

 

Absolutely
I have said before 7 days a week training/game is too much the players need to relax and unwind (get the hunger back)
Who on here works 7 days a week, week in week out and can still give it there all
Yes that's what he did at Morecambe (fed up of hearing about his past am more interested what he is doing now) but injuries and lack of match fitness can't be overlooked
As for Eisa I think he was politely saying he didn't want to talk about him for whatever reason

 

Even a 75% fit at that stage of the game Canavan would have been on Pitman's shoulder
Mr Adams tactics cost us 2 points today

 

That's what's so frustrating, you have to ask why Barton set his team up as he did first half, I don't believe for one minute it was his game plan to let us dominate as we did run out of steam and then they get a point from two poor headers, when I say poor headers I mean from our point of view neither effort being seriously challenged, sick of saying it but steadier finishing and there was no way back for Bristol.

 

And you don't understand sarcasm or tongue in cheek. Of course we won't finish top. Of course we (to coin yourself) lack quality.

However, my mental health is better when I think positively so, thanks for your concern, but I'll try to keep my posts positive rather than descending the steps of gloom by agreeing with every negative post.

 

Only those needing treatment should be in on Sunday not the rest of the team, Conditioning is important and players need a day off after a game to allow recovery or you will get soft tissue injuries, Most top coaches will say rest is as important as the physical side, Also give Adams time to review the game properly before the players come in on Monday for debriefing
It is poor to bring them all in and not in our best interest, Adams may not have a life but most players will and relaxation the day after a match is important both physically and mentally

 

Questions need to be asked of the medical staff who signed off on Eisa before we signed him. Yet another player made of glass. Only BCAFC could make the same mistakes over and over again.

 

Was never like this in the 80's. Cant recall Hendrie or McCall or Campbell taking many sick days between them and the tackles were much more brutal. You only got a red card if you detached a limb or stood toe to toe punching the feck out of each other.

 

Fair comment could have, wouldn’t have stopped the ball constantly coming back though and if we concede bringing a defender on does that make Adams look better or worse? Who’d be a manager…

It boils down to lack of quality imo, fitness was an issue today but wouldn’t have needed to be if we’d been better in attack.

 

After what's happened to Elsa, I'm not pinning too much hope in Angol playing an effective part in the rest of this season, which would be a shame.

 

But Adams is running(pun intended) the training the way he wants and that hasn't changed the avoidable soft tissue injuries- see Ridehalgh yesterday.
Canavan has taken a while to come back, still cant be trusted to get back on the pitch?
I bet the players are queuing up to pick up these non contact niggles to get some time off the regime.
Can be crafty sods these players.

 

I think having so much possession especially the first half and only the one goal to show leaves you open to the counter second half, he accepted that did Adams we were so much on top that late in the game tiredness did creep in.
I'm not sure any of your above 3 mentioned cost us, the last goal was poor defending from a player who had done little wrong through out the game.

 

Disagree-tactical changes or lack of cost us 2 points today.

 

We had one sub left, how you getting all 4 off? We should have taken our chances whilst on top.
