Staggie52 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Leaving aside those who just don’t like(hate) Adams, I do find it strange that many of the people who complained about Malky sugar coating his post match comments, are now complaining that Adams is saying it like he sees it. I guess that there might be a mid-point which would satisfy them, but I have my doubts. I’d prefer to look at the results and Adams has a few games, and a few transfers, to convince me that it was worthwhile brining him in. If he fails we go down, if he succeeds he’ll be a hero for me, but he’ll never be a great communicator. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VictorOnopko Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 6 hours ago, 2426255 said: Yes. It was a straight forward and honest interview from what I heard. It's just fans from other teams and the media creating something out of nothing here obviously. I like his style. In last night's interview having just been pumped 3-0 at home by a team in the league below, he threw his players under a bus ("they've all had a chance") and admitted he maybe shouldn't have taken his job and hadn't done his homework. It's "honest" I suppose but at the same time it makes him look like an absolute trumpet who is unwilling to take responsibility for his team being an utter shambles. His style is that of a man who is much, much thicker than he thinks he is. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His style is that of a man who is much, much thicker than he thinks he is. I referenced mark mcghee earlier. He was the classic case of confusing ‘honesty’ with just blurting out whatever nonsense is in his head at that moment. It’s not good management, it’s not endearing and it’s certainly not intelligent. As it happens, it now seems Derek Adams is angling to be either sacked or a quiet agreement to end this sooner rather than later. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not good at playing the media game - don't think he tries to, but he's very honest and direct which for me is a sign of excellent communication. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
