If it had been almost anybody else, you'd maybe give the benefit of the doubt over that one. But, Adam?...
I'm just glad that somebody seems to have finally worked out that he is a thug. Hopefully, he'll get chucked out of the game soon. There's no room for his deliberate attempts to cause injury in the game.

Adam has form on this stuff.
Obviously that means he will get the odd "rough justice" call against him.
But compared to ending the season/careers of other players, a small price to pay.
I'm surprised insurers don't pay his wages when banned, out of the profits saved
from paying out on the results of his handiwork.

Adam is the football equivalent of an uninsured driver who causes a pile-up but
walks away uninjured while the others affected are dead or disabled for life.
Makes you pine for the days when Chopper Harris, Tommy Smith, Norman Hunter etc
would be putting the likes of him into the crowd with every tackle.

I know he's no longer manager there, but he was when Adam made more than one attempt to cripple spurs players, but it speaks volumes for the priorities of managers like Pulis who, while harping on publicly about fining his own players for diving, had/has nothing to say about the behaviour of a violent thug like Adam.
I notice that his successor has nothing to say about the players's behaviour either...

If you could nominate one player in the premier league who had full immunity to do any sort of tackle on Charlie Adam whatsoever and get away with it, causing whatever injury he liked... who would it be?
For me it's a tossup between Yaya Toure (for the pure momentum that he'd get behind his challenge causing no end of damage), Flamini (for his propensity for going studs up with both feet and wrecking numerous knee ligaments) or Sandro (because he just seems a bit of a psycho and would probably break tibia and fibula).
EDIT. Or maybe even an Ivanovic ankle cruncher.

Sandro. His karate background would allow him to do some majestic high flying, back spinning round house kick to the face coupled with a Bruce Lee stomp to Adam's legs afterwards.
A couple of true facts is all that is to me, other managers have achieved the same in shorter spells at more than one club, even Allardyce had Bolton in Europe.

Hughes would not say anything, as he was a bit of a thug on the pitch as well
Any of the following please...

How on earth do you do that,can they not read
Charlie Adams has scored some cracking goals this season, had a fab season with Blackpool in the premier league and when at Glasgow Rangers he showed alot of potential.
Same with Joey Barton, who at one stage looked to be a real talent yet both players have a 'switch' , a trigger to turn into a mindless thug!

Adam is worse, in my opinion. Barton generally only turned violent when he'd lost it. Adam is just a mindless thug who acts, not from temper, put pure malice.
I nearly agree with this. Barton has massive anger issues and he just flips. He's like a child. Adam's calculating and nasty.
I don't think he's mindless, though. It seems an unlikely coincidence that he just happens to take out whoever's our most dangerous player on the day every time. He knows what he's doing.
If we have to label one as worse then I'll go with the player who was jailed for assaulting a teenager and battering a team mate.

''Mr Vardon said several witnesses said Barton continued to punch
Dabo while he lay on top of the player, who was in a dazed state.
One player, Georgios Samaras, said he had never seen such a
violent incident on a training pitch in all his career, the prosecutor
added.''
Adams may be more famous for recent on field incidents and certainly not defending him, as he's a dirty player, yet can't say he's worse then Barton as Barton hasn't been a saint on the pitch.
