    I understand what he’s trying to do. He’s trying to get the team to move the ball about so the opposition comes out an loses formation an we can create space.

    the question on everyone’s mind is why is he doing it? Barrow are shite. Their form resembles The referee’s hairline. they aren’t gonna chase the game. They will sit deep an pack the middle. why in the actual feck would you deploy a system with no wingers an 3 midfielders who have no pace or creativity. the logic borderlines delusion of the highest order, especially considering we are playing at home and are supposed to be fighting for promotion

    Hughes has created the slowest midfield in the division with no creativity and a fear of going forward

    Our midfield is slower than having three Bob Molenaar’s in it

    It was like they were playing in slow motion, total tripe.

    Platt is lazy and slower than the Titanic sinking.

    If he does not succeed at City, then I feel his managerial career is over, who would employ a guy who gets backed to the hilt, in a piss poor league but still cannot deliver?.

    One of the hardest jobs at City is filling a 2 minutes highlights vid for YouTube .....

    There is not enough minutes in a game for our managers style of play. Overplaying in areas where we can't damage the opposition, teams just stand back and watch our fantastic well honed skill of passing across the back line. Sad to say it's the main tactic of our play, or his play, they even do it when were chasing the game.

    I know your losing the game and this style isn’t work so rather than changing it he keeps it going and we simply walk into another defeat :( I actually want him to succeed he comes across as a great guy but Fook me had that been an Adams team out there yesterday then he would have been torn to shreds over it

    Well if he keeps it going at Donny and it's not going well i think 4.500 city fans will let him know in no uncertain terms, and it won't be pleasant.

    Thing is, we won’t (hopefully). Our performances away from home are much better. It’s like chalk and cheese

    What is the point of buying a ST, if you never see them win at home? Last time I saw us win at home was Stevenage!

    Didn’t we do 5 on the trot under Stuart in 16/17 or is my mind playing tricks?
