    Leeds was a terrible performance , no matter league positions - they played at walking pace and took the points . Maybe Adkins should let things get him down from time to time and then take it out on the players , and maybe they might fight back a bit . First time I've wanted an international break to last longer , pissed me off reading that

    How the hell have we got so many niggly injuries?

    We haven't played a game for a fortnight.

    How do people 'break down' doing **** all?

    Adkins is the David Brent of the football world, I wonder if he does the funny dance as a morale booster?

    We've seen some poor performances this season but it's the past its gone, were bottom of the league but need the points hopefully for new owners to come in, Every point up to January transfer month will be important and if we don't get taken over then we're down anyway but keep in touch with others above us and it would give new owners at least a chance.

    Don't quote me on this but I think they might train during the week as well as playing on matchdays.

    Is it a pure coincidence that when you’re bottom of the league that the players start dropping like flies?

    When the going gets tough...

    To be a stand up comedian, he'd have to genuinely be amusing rather than portraying the village idiot!

    Wonder if some entrepreneurial individual will start selling the 'Adkins mirror'. Just imagine. Hang one in the bathroom and look at 'Nige' every morning. If that isn't enough to get you going for the day then press the button to hear one of Nige' motivational phrases. Head out the house feeling great ready to conquer the world.

    That's what Bruce said but he must have been exaggerating. Presumably he meant a divot in the turf or something. There's no way that Brady actually fell into a cartoon-style pit.

    Watching any part of City’s play at the moment would suggest they don’t train at all.

    The training pitch is now exactly the same as the KCOM pitch, the days of hole related injuries are long gone, we must have found a new way of injuring them.

    I believe research has been undertaken and it showed that teams in the relegation spots always had more injuries than teams pushing for promotion. Low confidence, anxiety, pressure to avoid relegation and negativity were factors that led to more injuries.

    Maybe the injuries led to poor results.

    I wish they’d swap the ‘good in training...**** on the pitch’ equation round though

    Hopefully next week he’ll be telling us they’ve been a right set of lazy bastards in training, no one had a shot on target and they missed every tackle!
