    I completely disagree but to give you the benefit of the doubt.. In the last promotion season we signed Ryan Taylor and Shaun Maloney. There is no way either was anything other than strength in depth.

    We did, but we also paid £1.7m for Maloney. That’s a hefty price tag for a back up player for a club of our size.

    Agreed. But he was still never going to be anything more than a back-up player.

    The Cardiff fan I work with laughed at me when I asked if Meyler would get into their starting XI. He wouldn't get near Wolves team, nor Villa's or Fulhams. I doubt he would dislodge Huddlestone and the rest at Derby too.

    No mention of the 4 young lads who went on pushbike from Hull to that game? 3 of them once good mates of mine yet only 2 were City fans.

    My lad was playing FIFA with Meyler on Monday night. My lad said he's a decent bloke who made it clear (without actually saying so) that he thinks Adkins is a bit of a knob & he doesn't get on with him. Also offered to send my lad some bits in the post. Not grilled him further as he's been in Berlin since Tuesday morning.

    I tend to agree with the Adkins been a bit of a knob part.

    I tried to help him sort out his audio on Fortnite yesterday. No idea whether he did or not.

    Harsh.
    Fairer to judge him after hes enjoyed a proper summer windiw and pre-season? .... err ... yep .... small problem with that logic!
    Biggest mistake hes made with us was underestimating what a twat Enob is.

    I wasn't refering his management abilities, though I am not over excited with him as a manager, I was referring more to his manner, all the positivity is waring, and anyone who keeps saying we control the controllables is a knob in my book.

    Realised after posting thats what you probably meant. To my mind, we desperately needed someone positive.

    Some people can always give the impression of supporting a player more than the team as a whole.
