    If you can shift Guthrie and DMH you can shift those two. I don't believe for one minute that Adams wanted them to go. For some strange reason I think he'd see that as a failure on his part and wouldn't want to admit it. Evans is probably happy to sit out the rest of his contract because he wouldn't get anything close to what he's probably on now. Added to that he's also settled in the area.

    Certainly not immediately, it was tongue in cheek in the main but brought about by previous experience in that we have actually done it before with Bowyer and Vaughan was our captain. Let’s all be honest, if we go on a bad run will anyone be shocked if it does happen? Sparks fully backed T & S, then a losing streak later and they were out of the door.

    He will play either alongside Paudie or holding midfielder.

    Sparks was trying to flex his new found muscle, bolstered with binning off underperforming players and weird contract extensions. Unfortunately it seems a lot of backfire has made him go into his shell. He hasn’t the balls to sack DA.

    Anyone know why Hendrie & Delfounso can't play today ? is it timing of the signings or are they like most players we sign - already injured ?

    Fair is this. But I'm puzzled by the signing of ND.. With a fit Cook, I'm struggling to see how he gets significant game time.

    Non League clubs can still sign players so I expect them to move so that they "get some game time".

    I might be dreaming but I think he's basically a winger/forward, so he probably will get game time in an Angol-type role.

    It's not the worst signing although it would be nice if he'd scored even a single league goal this season.

    To be fair to Delfouneso, he's only played 233 minutes of league football this season. All from the wing, so not exactly been given the best chances to even get a goal.

    Only played 753 minutes all season in all competitions, not one minute of it as a striker but got two goals in the PJT. Doesnt look like he's played as a striker in nearly two years. As you say, will probably fill that Angol left sided foward position. Imagine we will never see Pereira now.

    Our problems have been forwards finding the back of the net apart from Cook who suffers with injuries - Given Delfounesos goal scoring record I will wait with baited breath to see how he improves this problem City have.
    As for a team that has been unable to keep conceding - preventable goals - it does not appear to be a priority for Adams given his transfer activity.

    We're a football club, though, not a bank balance.

    I don't give a stuff about 'good business' from a financial aspect, it's all about the team, which is weaker now.

    I ain’t trying to cause an argument but we need to bring a forward who can score goals .......... Cook and another fair enough I’m having that but what if Cook gets injured ???? We ain’t got one player to fill that gap :( soon as Angol went off at Rochdale the priority should have been to get a goalscorer in now our season is in the hands of a forward who could at any point be out for weeks :(

    Not only that, but the defence looked lopsided and weak.

    I was begging the club to sign another right back before a ball was even kicked, but people kept saying it would be fine.

    LOL.
