My view on Adams is he's a a bit of risk but he is also not a negative idiot and

with the players he has at his disposal if he just lets them play a bit then at this level we should do pretty well. Players seem to like him and our play this pre-season shows encouraging signs.

Frankly if our squad stays as it is then any manager would have to be absolutely appalling not to have us in and around the top 6.

        Can't say it bothers me. It's quite an honour having / being a wrath in-joke. (NCFC) - APB, Jul 29, 10:57:27
