Max always struggles when Growsicki plays, not protection. Dio has his faults, but when he plays on the left we seem a bit more balanced, and at least he tracks back.
Still a bit puzzled as to why he(Adkins) decided to have a go MacDonald so publicly, yes he was poor, but so were several others, (strange he made no mention of Dawson's or Clarks part in Millwards first goal) set me wondering was "our Nigel" having a go at our phantom head of recruitment and was MacDonald not a player of his choosing , also at no part during his interview post match did he accept any blame for the performance that was served up, to be honest, i only think things are going to get worse before they get better.
When will our defence win a header? Dawson gets beat in the air time after time. McDonald was blowing after the first minute. Every time that’s Cooper, Gregory or Elliott win a header there hands where all over us, but we are so weak. Thought Henriksen had a decent game to be fair but Larsson wasn’t at it at all. Midfield is like a siv.
Possibly so, but then who's fault is it that we don't have a Tymon or a Robertson to fill that spot? It's certainly not Max's fault, he's just doing the best he can.
I'm now of the firm opinion that they had a gigantic stroke of luck in getting Steve Bruce to come here, I realise that other football people at the club at that time played a major role in getting him, I also recall the old man stating, in a sickly joking manner, at how expensive he was shortly after he'd appointed him. History will state that he took us to the PL, to our first ever - and probably last - FA Cup final, and into Europe (yes I know). Then the idiot son takes over. What we have now are no marks such as Darnborough and the like, appointed by the idiot offspring. We appoint our managers as head coaches because the idiot ehaw clearly sees himself as the one that's 'managing' the club. Great job he's doing! We are only heading in one direction.
He does because he lacks the required composure at times. I don't think you could find anyone that reckons he's a championship left back but he could do a job now and then with injuries etc. But people critique him as if he's another Robertson when in reality if we were a well run football club he'd have been released or loaned out to a league 2 club.
Ehab Allam's inability to trust SB has led to our vertical descent. League 1 is a real possibility this season, and even if we stay up, will next season be any better? The club is sick and toxic from top to bottom. 2 absentee owners who have all the power. No direction, no clue, no interest. It will only get worse.
Thought about that, **** as Burton are (marginally ****ter than us) maybe City give him fewer chances to play?
I don't think Adkins wants a settled first eleven. He says himself he will change things around for the next match whatever the next match is regardless of injuries.
Burton actually play football as well, or try to, as oppose to City's one and only tactic: CB punt into corner, see what happens.

Assuming we stay up, and Bowen and Kamil go, next years XI still looks decent on paper: Marshall Moses Mazuch MacDonald Kingsley Weir Toral / Henriksen Stewart Irvine Campbell / Keane Dicko Even without any strengthening that’s easily good enough for mid-table. Makes our current plight all the more ridiculous. On paper I’d say it’s better than what we started the promotion season under Brown with! Haven’t got a ****ing clue who captain is though. No obvious candidate at all. Mazuch?
