Well that was awful , started with a formation we looked like we had practiced for about 10 minutes , undeservedly got back in the game then threw it away again , can't blame it all on Adkins but changes came too late , players have to take some blame for not being able to pass simple balls , would love to know who's idea it was for Campbell and Keane to play on opposite sides of the penalty box - it was just rubbish, nobody seemed to have any idea what to do to turn things around , said people got too excited after forest , swallows and summers , etc , etc... to sum up, I'm cold and pissed off. That was rubbish

Well done for going.

I’m all for Adkins positivity but it frustrates me when some of the positivity seems forced and forged.

It makes him lose all credibility in my eyes, especially when it seems he’s stood on the touchline watching a completely different match to the ****-storm that every other City fan has just witnessed.

I obviously don’t expect him to crumble and come out a quivering wreck but a bit more realism and verity would give me more faith that he actually knows what he’s doing.

Can't blame us for been a bit positive though but for the manager to make wholesale changes to formation and side is unforgivable really.

Give us a full run down on each player when you've got time on the journey back. Unless you're driving...

Nobody looked comfortable in that formation , Aina was awful , Keane looked lost , don't think he touched the ball first 20 minutes , Campbell non existent , can't really remember the rest , just average at best ... I know I'd make a **** pundit , Grosicki created 2 chances within minutes of coming on unfortunately they required a striker to anticipate things and be in the 6 yard box , that's why I don't understand formation , Grosicki could have played instead of Wilson , then Toral in other side, then only one player slightly out of position instead of changing the whole system from a league win

in positive news, won my first acca in what seems like about 5 years tonight, including Boro to win. Adkins is a clown, Forest was an aberration.

Grosicki may not be fully fit
