My personal opinion is that DA knows what he is doing, most especially when compared to me and all the other army of fans who have never been closer to the professional game than the perimeter fence.philevs":2z0kyrvl said:

Does DA know what he's doing?
- Thread starter philevs
- Start date
I'm worried about the coming season too. I'm not questioning whether the manager knows what he's doing but with so many key players leaving and so many unknown quantities arriving. Having said that they are only unknown to me. I'm sure they are known to the manager.
The optimist in me remembers some poor performances last season. Maybe the spine of our team was not up to it and we are well shot of Nelson, Mchugh and co. Maybe that was Adams plan all along.
I'd love to see another bright player signed, someone who like Carey can make things happen. We seem very reliant on Carey for that creative spark. He could get injured again. Who knows maybe we could accommodate two really creative players in the team. We certainly seem to have a lot of big physical lads to keep the team solid.
Anyway it's going to be fun finding out

So all managers know what they are doing do they? Roy Hodgson very experienced manager but ultimately shown to be clueless.
Ultimately he was shown to have made wrong and mystifying decisions at the tournament. He may have been wrong then but "clueless" is not the right word. However, the England sides he chose won every qualifying game. Clearly he knew then what he was doing. However, that said, I don't come on here to argue with anyone. I just put my point of view and people either agree or disagree. I never have felt the need to always have the last word.Balham_Green":3g44p186 said:
This is a ridiculous post.
Does DA know what hes doing? Well more than most who post on here
I think we all thought Carey etc weren't great signings last season, Brunt was pointless being signed.
If we are mid/bottom half of table at Christmas you can bring this back up again.
I wish the season would just start so people could stop writing such drivel and actually comment on what has happened at least

It's probably fair to say that Derek Adams knows more about football than all of us put together, whatever he is up to we can rest assured he is making a far better job of it than any of us would. But football's all about opinions and we are all entitled to ours and you can rest assured that you will be having the benefit of mine throughout the season.

what a stupid thread to start! why dont you go support exeter ffs. this is the sort of idiot i end up sat next to at a game !!
Yes, he's everywhere at Home Park.
He was slagging off the 'useless' Wylde at the Hartlepool game; then Wylde made a great run and cross for Harvey to score and, suddenly, he's a brilliant player who Adams is playing out of position.
I'm thinking of taking a note book with me this season and recording some of his fickle and inconsistent comments.
Of course no one knows until either we are promoted by Christmas or it all blows up in his face. But as supporters we should at least be optimistic about the season to come and our new team. Seems like some people are in slash wrist mode already. One thing we do know is that it's going to a hard slog. Let's hope it's our cream that rises to the top ( not a euphemism )!

I wont go about this anymore but my point on other threads is you zHAVE to have evidence. There is no point in blind optimism. Signing a load of players we haven't heard of is not evidence.
