I reckon it’s where we’d get the best from him, Adams to play the deeper midfield role putting himself about a bit, breaking up play and stopping teams waltzing through the midfield which should free whoever from Hourihane/Bird/Thompson/Sibley/Fornah to push forward a bit more.
Hourihane, when playing, needs to be closer to goal due to his shooting ability in my opinion.To drag out centre backs who are 6ft 4 and will lump away indiscriminate crosses all day. You'd think that may be a plan.

Muckerette's memories of the old BBG are just 2 games in total, from the late 80's/early 90's, and are thus...
1. First Game: On the Popside v Newcastle... didn't like the claustrophobic vibes of a near-full terrace vibe... wasn't keen on the pushing, shoving, and swaying... absolutely hated the hefty waft of B.O. from the guy in front, who managed to keep both arms aloft for the entire game. It was a no from her!
2. So let's try this then..., A wonderfully romantic trip to FA Cup Third Round Land. v Burnley. In the posh seats (Ley Stand). She was halfway through her "This is much better, darling" spiel, when she had to change it to "Where TF has the pitch gone"! Got a bit foggy, innit! Postponed it, din't they! 🙄
She never bothered again (at The BBG)! 🤣
That's the coldest I've ever been at a football game.

I think Clowes is as committed as ever. If he wasn’t, he wouldn’t have sanctioned the move for CBT, for example. £400,000 is £400,000 more than he might have felt necessary.
If you look at the signings since he took over the club, I think Clowes has tried to build a competitive team and strike a good balance between ambition and prudence.
People want to complain about our transfer business this season, but every season has cases of players not working out. I think people seem to forget that only 11 players can play at any one time and not every signing will work because other players are getting game time and playing well and getting recognition.
Last season, there were senior players like Stearman, Davies, Chester and Loach who barely got a kick. There were young players signed like Oduroh who never looked like making an impact. So it happens, not just with Warne signings but there are all kinds of managers get signings wrong.
Added 100 k there. That's a million it seems under our current budget.

Didn't he say earlier in the week we'd lost out to another League 1 club on a striker we wanted.

Has he said anything about free transfers?
We tried to go some away but no-one was interested

Listened to warnes interview about not getting a striker that's better than what we have fair enough we haven't got the money to waste on players but surely there was a decent enough striker lower down in the league to get for not alot of money like Smith from reading they are desperate for money they would of sold him
If Collins gets injured. That's anyone with two feet

Real world point. How many times do we reach a point, in any job, where we want to move on - no difference for footballers than the rest of us. His contract is up in the summer and we'd get nothing. If he wants out at which point he'd have just left; as things stand, he is staying until end of the season (as he would have anyway), we get paid for him. BC get to know they have their man next year. Everyone is a winner - so yes this is a win for all sides.
Footballers are employees and we'd drop them as quick as you like, so them wanting what's best for themselves seems perfectly fair enough.
Real world point. If your s**** at your job and miss key targets, do you get to sit on your arse for 4 years getting splinters at 25x the average salary. Swings and roundabouts.

Blind to what?
We want to improve the squad but all the indicators point to it not being easy or straightforward at this time.
If Collins gets injured, it will be a great shame and a huge blow. But we can only wait and see how things develop. You are panicking about a situation that might not even arise.
At the end of the day, can the club really win? Sign no-one and people complain, sign someone and they don’t quite click and people complain, sign someone and they get injured and people complain, sign someone and they don’t become our best and most productive player inside 180 minutes and people complain.
The sooner the summer is here, the better.
So Warne can sign another 6 crocks with good attitudes- or in real terms don't have any opinion that may rock his boat- and bad injury records. He won't even have his heavily relied on Rosenior squad that was put together in a few weeks to fall back on . Good times.

What is the evidence that Bradley and Ward are on good money?
There is enough evidence out there to suggest that the budget / restrictions are prohibitive, or did you miss where we were priced out of moves for two back-up strikers from a struggling Championship club and all the other indicators?
or is the very obvious indicator that we spent a fairly un-prohibited pot on wages for players who are getting splinters or splints.

Birds comment "Ashton Gate is a great stadium and it's always rocking" is it really? Is that a dig at our fans because we are not whilst being under warne? Paul warne has sucked the life out off our fan base! But its fine we are winning games.
Why is he back here then. He'll be as useful as Plange was when he got a move. Quite nauseating really. Take your Robins scarf and feck off.

It will help the club financially, which is still an important consideration to make whether people like it or not.
And perhaps we’ll have more muscle when the transfer window comes around again in the summer.

To be fair to Bird he doesn't seem the type to give less than 100% - and especially to us. Plus why does he need to avoid injury? He's already secured the move, he's only here on loan
None want's to go to a club injured. We're the exception to the norm as we actively search for invalids on 2 year deals.

Obviously the club wanted to keep Max, hence why he is still here on loan.
It was probably in Bristol City’s interest to prolong negotiations and wear us down to make a deal.
The money will still make a difference.
He's here on loan to prevent a meltdown. It hasn't worked clearly and we now have a 5 month passenger we're still paying ,trying to avoid injury.

A shame Sheff Wednesday are the only club who had any players we could have signed.

The deal was announced by the club at 11:40 pm, which suggests that it wasn’t done particularly quickly and probably not with enough time to secure any targets.
They probably should have sorted it out a while ago by giving him a deadline to accept or be sold then.

I think Mr popadpolous will be on soon to accuse DCFC of vastly inflating Max's sale value through some accounting trickery.......
Too busy sniffing his mams undersheet to look at our balance sheet. Strange that he's not protesting about Derby benefitting from their money when we didn't pay 100 per cent of what we owe. Perhaps that's because he only talks b******* when it suits.

To put a slightly more positive spin on this - for all the talk that Portsmouth have done well, I think they've gone too far in trying to stop their stuttering form, they risk unsettling the balance. Time will tell of course.
They signed Regan Pole in the summer on a free. If he hadn't torn his ACL they be top by a margin. Absolute bargain missed. Was sure we'd be in for him.

Not as good as Knight by some margin.

We had McGoldrick. Happy days.
