- Whatever the tactics were yesterday they certainly weren't 'brave' (NCFC) - mr carra, May 5, 08:28:47
  - Well it certainly didn't bow to fan pressure, so it was brave to that extent. Just accept (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, May 5, 09:17:25
    - dumb post. Adams was considering bringing 2 strikers on (NCFC) - phrankin, May 5, 09:50:12
  - Soaking up that amount of pressure was, IMHO, brave and tactical... (NCFC) - Dandy Highburyman, May 5, 08:55:36

        He did get 19 goals though. (NCFC) - lurd, May 5, 09:53:34
