revised his prediction we'll finish top that he made after Port Vale away?

Utter fucking spineless tripe he's takin a shit team and made us worse!!!!
 



Someone is going to pay the price when season ticket renewal figures start to come in, that's what triggered it last time.
 
Wasn't at the game tonight, cost an arm and a leg for the weekend in Manchester, but sounded like a great run and cross from McEveley for the second goal?

Was a good run, cross was deflected though
 
Adkins isn't the problem. That looked a spirited performance last night in the final half hour and well done to the team for rescuing a draw from defeat. But there are areas in that midfield and defence you could drive a supertanker through. Mourinho would struggle with this side, believe me. And what with us now being halfway through the JTW and the Murphy money seemingly nowhere to be seen, I doubt we'll make the playoffs unless we get a strategy that stops us shipping goals (unlikely) or we find a way to score more than three in each game to get more than the opposition.

Adlins = good craftsman who has someone else's budget toolbag. See Clough (regardless of what people say, we didn't exactly sign six or seven division winners, did we ... and we sold more playing value than we signed) and see Wilson as well.

pommpey
 



To be honest mosbolad I'm fucking sick to the back teeth of being stuck in this division and the constant stream of excuses.

We conceded 6 v Peterborough and Wigan and defend like Barcelona against Man U.

I and others have consistently said the issues that need addressing. I'm entitled to moan in my opinion as you are entitled to your rose tinted glasses.

I never said Adkins was a problem my post asked if he'd revised his prediction we will finish top!

And we are arguably worse off the last year

Well actually you sort of did! 'he's takin a shit team and made us worse!!!!'

Come on Leeds, it wasn't just a straight forward 'Has NA revised his prediction' now was it? It was more 'the fuckin clueless wanker they are all shit the whole bleeding lot of them' kind of post....

We are all sick of being stuck in this division and to be fair at the time you posted we were 3 nil down.......

It was a great fightback and you must accept a bit of a dig after that 'spineless shite' post and the teams response when news of your post reached the players.....:eek:

If we win at Colchester, we're a whole point better off than last year!

But I get your point. Our expectations of NA haven't borne fruit yet. I think he's a good manager and is sloooowly moving us in the right direction. His signings have been mostly average, his use of subs. is dire but he's had a hell of a lot of sorting out to do, post-Clough.

I think we should use the last four months of the season gearing up for 2016-17. Let's see where the rest of this season takes us, keep NA but absolutely no excuses next season.
 
I feel that the players have took the p*ss out Adkins. When appointed, Adkins wanted to give everyone a clean slate and a fair chance to stake their claim, when we know that many didn't deserve it. It maybe that Adkins was told he had to do that, however we are over half way through the season and hardly any of the squad can genuinely say they have took the opportunity Adkins has offered them. The inconsistent performances, lack of professionalism off the pitch and amount of players being unfit (I believe desire can be questioned with some) is a complete joke.

Our best hope is play offs and that Championship clubs buy Walsall, Peterborough etc best players in this transfer window.

But we shouldn't have to wait while we are 3 down to play - that's the gripe.

If as someone said above we are waiting till summer to improve then fair enough the club should say, but I've got this horrible feeling players that are out of contract will end up resigning for us !

The players have proved it time and again they can perform in one off cup games if they applied themselves similarly in the league we'd be talking about when we pick the title up now.

It's a different scenario though. We can't just stick ten men behind the ball and defend manfully against teams like Wigan, we have to try to win games. At the moment we're a lot better team off the ball than we are on it. That may not be necessarily down to desire or application.
We can't, and haven't been able to for a long time, get the balance right between defence and attack. Whether that's down to lack of ability, lack of desire or lack of mental strength I don't know.
