Good result last night, BUT we are in the relegation zone, when we were supposed to be in the play-offs. It's not down to bad luck either, I have seen enough from MA this season to convince me he's not the man he once was, and that's why we've done so poorly.

I don't change my mind with each result, and it's therefore still OUT for me.
Agreed. I find the cries of bad luck absolutely baffling. How many times have we come away from games legitimately able to feel hard done by? Tranmere away, maybe? I genuinely cannot think of anything else. In fact at times we've been lucky to get results we didn't deserve.

Beat Hartlepool and Hereford and I might start to think sacking him isn't completely necessary.

Exactly my stance.

Baffles me that a draw with Leicester sees the tide turn BACK in Micky's favour so drastically. A loss to Hartlepool and it will go back against him.

I wonder sometimes whether a lot of people just follow their gut reactions in the aftermath of the latest game.

Not exactly..... two new players in were seemingly identified by MA... maybe we are seeing MA finally getting the players right..... personally I think if he was going to be sacked it should have happened before the transfer window started but now he's here we need to see if his signings work and initially there is some evidence that they might... hence the fence.

Still do not like the football served up at Withdean and have been saying for some time that we are relegation candidates unless we improve the squad and our tactics. However cannot see the point of sacking Adams at the moment. See where we are at the end of the season.

Still out for me I'm afraid. I may be wrong but I suspect he's being cut loads of slack because of people fondly remembering his first stint with us. But to my mind we are still looking likely to go down and are massively underachieving given our squad, plus I hate his apparent complacency that everything's ok and that anyone disagreeing with that is an idiot, a stinking attitude.

OUT.

A flukey draw against shite Cheltenham and a decent draw against Leicester doe not change the fact we are in the bottom 4 and we have won 1 of the last 14 games and lost 8. We are averaging less than 1 point a game and need 27 point from 20 games to stay up.

Micky this time around is not up to it and the sooner he goes the better.

Listening to Harty's phone in last night you would think we were in the top 2 with all the lavish praise heaps on Adams by Harty and all the callers. Do they screen the calls to only have pro Adams callers on I wonder ?.

No, its not good enough and the next 2 home games could seal his fate as I think we will lose them both.

Good result last night, BUT we are in the relegation zone, when we were supposed to be in the play-offs.

Supposed to be in the play-offs ??? On what criteria ? The implication is that we have a pre-determined right to be in the play-offs based on last years position. We're supposed to be exactly where we are based on the number of points we've collected and measured against the other teams in our league. I'm not suggesting for a minute it's a place I want to see us but I'm intrigued how we're supposed to be in the play-offs.

Me, I'm still an IN man and will remain so until Christmas regardless of where we end up this season.

On the basis of 7th and 69 points last season not being good enough and Adams being brought in to take us FORWARDS. The squad we have should be a breeze to get in the top 6 this season and the fact we are in the relegation zone is gross mis management of an unbelievable scale.

Out for me.But if Adams plays the game like last night(on the deck) then i could swing the other way.I'm hoping he does turn it around and i'm starting to feel more confident about it.Still we have to wait and see who we bring in first.

Still out for me, Credit for last night, but will need to go on a run of performances like that & pick up a load of points to make up for what I've seen so far.

IN - A great point, looks like since half time at Cheltenham they finally got the rocket we've been waiting for shoved up their arse.

I've voted 'in' for every one. And nothing except eventual relgation will change my mind. I think Adams is the right man for the job and will get it right given time. I still think we will beat Luton and get to Wembley too.

In, In, In, have always been in, and continue to be in despite us now officially being in one of the relegation positions.

I think the Colchester game at home was the one that I felt hard done by. We should have been 2 or 3 nil up by half time and ended up 1-1 at half time. We then lost 2-1, I think Colchester only had about 2 or 3 chances all game. But anyhow thats in the past and I hope we move forward and upwards now!

Performances aside, we have only lost once out of the last 5 in think? Against a decent Leeds side, which for the first half we were the better side. We just need to start putting in 90 minutes and 100% performances.

A good result against Leicester, but we still slide into the bottom four. If we don't beat Hartlepool and Hereford, in which might I add is ANOTHER six pointer. Then I'm sorry he has to go, but I would rather have him gone now through.

We're in the relegation zone... we haven't gone up the table we've actually gone down! Why are people suddenly flocking back to Adams?
