Who knew throwing your players under the bus as you walk through the door was an absolutely atrocious idea?

A masterstroke of a misunderstood genius, apparently.

Focussing on his interviews misses the point, he recruited badly in the window and brought them in too soon, but over and above that he puts out a team that is disorganised and without any semblance of effective tactics. When things go wrong and he tries to change it, it is at best ineffective and as often makes it worse.

Tbf that's never ended disastrously in Scottish football before, I mean no one could see that coming. Oh.

You may just need to accept the L here. This has been disastrous for him and was never likely to be a positive. 

If he’s honest and straightforward then he wouldn’t be misunderstood. And unfortunately if he’s misunderstood by his players then that’s a pretty fundamental leadership issue and it doesn’t really matter if he stands in the changing room and tells them he isn’t a p***k he’s just being honest. 

Unfortunately for County fans, he's not honest and straightforward. He's a bizarre, odd, angry little goblin.

That's fine mate. We have different opinions on it - there's no right or wrong here.

You have to be at the wind up.

 

If not, you're coming over as someone arguing the grass wasn't green, and after an exhausting amount of proof showing you it was, you'd say, 'we'll just have to agree to disagree then. You're as bonkers as Adams,, you'll probably take that as a compliment.

It became quickly apparent that Adams thought he was miles better than the County job and thought he would piss this league because he got a couple gigs down South.

A wholly unlikeable character and I'm taking great pleasure at seeing the ground crumble around his feet.

You could argue thst his interviews possibly made the recruitment more difficult as harder to persuade a player to up sticks to Highlands while telling them the team and league is a pile of Shite.

I do think there's a good manager in there somewhere, but he's just a massive weirdo who you can tell will not get on with the majority of the players he manages and we all know if a couple of players fall out with a manager who's side the rest of the squad will take.

MacGregor and Adams Snr and Jr are all mates are they not?  You can see why Roy would go back to him to try and save the club from relegation.  It's probably comforting for him to know there's a guy managing his team who he knows and trusts.

There's something about his face that always reminded me of Eugene Tooms, that baddie from the X Files.

Look, I'm not saying Adams is a cannibalistic, shape-shifting serial killer who hibernates for decades at a time by feasting on human livers to sustain himself. But would that explain a few things? Certainly.
