1st two questions good and fair questions.
The last question needed a third option. Something like ‘MAYBE, BUT NEED TO FIND OUT WHO IS DECIDING ON RECRUITMENT AND THE CONTRACT LENGTHS THAT LEADS TO SQUAD STABILITY GOING FORWARD.

Adkins may not have been able to motivate some of these but he would not have accepted the performances and others would have got a chance.
Start of the season we were going to develop players. Only Mason O’Malley has achieved that but he has had the opportunity of a lot of games but how many have not a chance ?
Jai Rowe must wonder, he is in does well and gets dropped and why ? because of what I call targeting. Lining up to deal with what opponents will do on so many occasions that we forget that opponents should have to deal with us !
This season has been a bigger farce than last season which was a farce on the season before ! And if their is no apology and change of the philosophy promised get ready for another season of chaos.
Having heard and read his latest post match comments what is the point of anyone showing any interest.
The big plus this season is the gates have been maintained, next season will be a whole different thing. This a mess, the budget is what it is but we need someone who will not accept mediocrity.
The fitness has been a huge issue this season so a full investigation is needed starting there.

So many should have had a chance this season. A run of games is the least they deserved, but not us we pick the same who could not be bothered and now look at the mess !
For a club that stated this season we would be developing players I would hate to have seen a lack of interest !
We used to have a good reputation – now !!!

To watch – not a chance. Even as a 12th Man I stopped watching many weeks ago.
Even despite Mr Cox’s comments after the Morecambe game ! That could have been on any of the 41 games and the common denominator is whoever picks the team, formation and tactics. Now we lose Jordan Clarke who has only just returned from injury, and how many times has that happened this season.
McGahey, Taft, Onoriase they may pass fitness tests but in combat pressures are much higher and then they are out again, and again. And when you look at goals conceded it is not all their fault. Midfielders do not chase back and help. Check that last goal by Forest Green – look at McGahey and Tafts face, they don’t know where to cover next. They get no help.
Tonight I am expecting some surprises in selection especially on the bench. I will say what I think after team sheet released.
Tonight 442, side passes virtually non-existent and on the front foot at EVERY opportunity. Time for the coaching text book we use to be binned and that black folder in the dugout to be shredded and never to reappear.

If any of these premier division clubs have signed a document to breakaway they should be immediately relegated to the bottom of league 2.

We may not have been challenging for promotion but I am sure we would not be in this situation.
The issues are targeting – stop setting up to deal with opponents !
Stick to 4 4 2.
Stop putting recently injured players straight back in the team – how many times this season have we seen players get injured within a couple of games !
Stop selecting the same failures week after week !
Give the ignored, the forgotten few a chance. Why can’t they be a success.3 users thanked author for this post.
Would ‘experienced’ players get the message if they started the game but on the bench are the ignored, the forgotten ?
Tell them they have the first 45 to show if some deserve the second half !!
If they don’t then from the 55th minute the substitutions start. Lets see if there is any pride there if they deserve paying. Time for hitting ego’s.

The Karacan interview was very informative. Defended the manager but did question our recruitment that the delivered the majority of what arrived.
That simply are not good enough, although Cox wanted Hippolyte !! Noses need putting out of joint – it isn’t too late.

Howe is contracted at Blackpool until 2022. Cannot see us paying a fee.
Rowe, Butroid, Hornshaw, Pugh, Jessop, Barks, Jessop, Shrimpton, Silva are all out of contract – how many will be here next season ? I fear not many. We don’t develop our own these days to regular first team duty. So I cannot see Joey Dawson signing a contract, even more so when you look at the opportunities all of the above have had this season.
Mick Buxton gave young players a chance when there was a downturn of fortunes – Mr Neil Cox got his chance, Richard Hall got his chance as did Graham Alexander. How come these young pro’s never got a chance ?
Never been so disappointed in the management this season over this.
