I'm not saying get rid of Adams now as we are too far into the season to do that I feel, that time has passed. However for next season I would like to see a change in the way we approach games.

The dreadful, insipid football will eventually hit Argyle's season ticket and gate receipt income if it hasn't already. If Adams is in charge next season, and I'm pretty sure he will be, I'll be downgrading from green to white membership at the very least.

Yea but that is not the real stats that matter. The tints will have you bound and gagged for such blasphemy and tell you we are on a play off style run with silky counter sttacking foitball.
What is a good barometer as well as your quote above is opposotion fans nearly all saying we are the worst team they have seen. Buy hey it will keep us up

We WERE probably the worst team they had seen. We are the worst team I have seen on occasion. However quite often they didn't beat us so its not objective.

I know some will say needs must to stay up but if this is going to be the Argyle way for the next 3 x years or until DA moves on then god help us.
It is dreary, boring to watch and other fans take the pi$$ and to cap it all it is not that affectice in Lg1.
A colleague bought something up about the way we pkay which is true. We didnt play like this until the FA cup game against Liverpool and since then DA sees it as the holy grail way of playing.
I hope the youngsters are more attack minded than the 1st team and this DOES NOT become the Argyle way
1) if you watch the U18s regularly in either the Youth Alliance league or the SWPL, you would know that the Argyle way is to choose your tactics depending on who you are playing, the way they played against Man City was completely different to how basically the same team played against Willand Rovers a week before.
2) Watching Argyle is never dreary or boring to watch but perhaps that just me not wanting Argyle to lose and enjoying the art of defending as well as the skilful midfielders and the goals we score.
3) We havenāt played like we did at Liverpool since then.
Re 2) I take it you weren't at Pompey then?
Yes, certainly was. Frustrated by the game but not bored.

If weāre losing 4-0 with 10 men, I sit there quietly seething and bemoaning my bad fortune in following English footballās biggest underachievers.
Angry, nervous, excited, demoralised or ecstatic... but rarely ever bored.
