    No they weren't. McDonald was abysmal. As near to a pacifist as you can get for a centre half.

    Taking Irvine off was criminal. He was probably the pick of a bad bunch.

    That was absolute gash particularly the first half, what got me the most was that going forward they were busting a gut whereas we were just trotting along with no urgency at all - very frustrating!

    Irvine has nowhere near the quality on the ball required to play as a No.10.

    I'm a big fan, but he was a waste of a shirt in that game and were the alternative not a woefully unconfident Stewart, I think he'd have been hooked a lot sooner.

    Not sure what was up with MacDonald but he was absolutely blowing in the first five minutes. Completely exhausted. Adkins asked Mazuch to warm up after 10 mins and didn't do much about it.

    He should have played in cenner mid where's he's been playing well. Gets stuck in.
    That dribble down the touchline was excellent.
    Bizarre to play henriksen in cm when he's supposedly a number ten.

    “I need to get to the bottom of it. We were a disgrace in the first half.

    “The early goal affected the whole team and they were mentally weak. You’ve got to be able to deal with that. The first half was nowhere near the levels that are expected of these players. Nowhere near good enough.

    “We’re in a relegation fight and we’re in a scrap, so you’ve got to deal with it and respond. I’m really annoyed. I’m trying to keep calm but that was nowhere near good enough. Mentally we looked like a bag of nerves. We can’t do that.”
    Deadline day signing Angus MacDonald was one of the players to feel Adkins’ wrath after he was replaced at half-time.

    “I should have taken him off in the first minute,” replied the City head coach. “He was shocking in the first half. That was an area we knew we had to deal with and we didn’t do. Angus MacDonald is very good at heading the football but he wasn’t in the first half.”

    I think that's fair enough personally.

    He clearly has something as he scored 1 in 4 for a very poor Burton side.

    I agree, there's a player in there. Just seems to panic sometimes, lacking confidence no doubt. Being in a **** team doesn't help.

    Well just got back home. What a load of crap that was. Adkins got it wrong, we should be playing two up front and give the opposition something to worry about instead of trying to keep it tight. What a ****ing joke that game plan was. Then in his post match interview he says we will play a different way against Norwich. Who the **** does he think he has at his disposal. Most of this lot aren't up to championship level. Please just get a square peg in a square hole, play two up front and if we go down at least we gave it a try. Watching this is ****e.

    Just back, what a crock of **** that was, got the impression from Adkins post match comments he's lost the dressing room, found it strange that the only player he named and shamed was the one he brought in (or did he).

    Well waking up to read all these comments and reports is becoming depressing. It seems to me that 6 of the players starting tonight won't be at the club after the end of this season. They don't give a **** anymore, and it seems they do not play for Adkins either, as he probably bores the life out of them like he does me.

    Only the ineptitude of others will keep us up this season, the worry is that we have to play Birmingham/Burton/Wendies/DQPR, who are round us, so losses against these teams, bearing in mind we have Wolves/Villa/Cardiff to play which will result in Nil points, we are in a perilous position .

    That was me who said Clark gets targeted, and it's clear to see why, gives his all but he's not a lb or a championship player

    I agree. We have a one way ticket. There's no way we can keep relying on the teams below us losing. Won't happen.
