Adams calls supporters YOBS on Radio Devon

[Greenrod]

What a delicate flower Adams is - I suppose he didn’t get any abuse whilst managing in Scotland.

Man up Adams and take it on the chin, accept your inadequancies.

From where I was standing, this afternoon, there was a few booing at the end but the majority clapped the team off. They also clapped off Burton Albion, who ran rings around the Argyle defence - the Albion attack were fitter and faster.

Let's all give DA a break shall we. It's only two weeks since we got a point at high flying Barnsley. The real villain of this on-going circus is Brent and his refusal to stump up the money for some decent players. We are getting 8,000 x £20 = £160,000 x 23 = £ 3,200,00 + pasties + bar + sponsorship + EFL money + cup games = £4,000,000

SO WE HAVE £4 MILLION TO GET A TEAM TO FINISH 5TH FROM BOTTOM OF LEAGUE ONE :banghead:

you have to take into account the huge wages that the directors and non executive post holders get paid.

Is that not an inference that borders on libel?

Put up the evidence or shut up.

I'm not sure if we're being wooshed here. Good old TruroTerry consistently posts pure drivel, but Steve now beats him!!

What ARE you on about Steve?

That’s got to be utter bollox and probably ACTIONABLE

Not going Argyle until the new year

Very busy working weekends now as busy time of year in Retail

Hopefully things will have improved

All sounds very toxic at the moment

This Is NOT My Argyle

Poor excuse from another retailer and there's Tuesday games.

It wasn't toxic in the family zone, just resigned depression

 

[HC Green]

The reaction to Adams comments just underline how fans believe they can say or write whatever they like no matter how vile and venomous about players but that the players or management have no right of reply.
And when they do, out comes the ‘how outrageous’ etc...

 

[Biggs]

Not sure what’s more ridiculous. Terry coming up with that fag packet rubbish and presenting it as fact, or thinking that £4million is a lot of money to run a large League 1 football club on.

As for Steve, what are these ‘huge’ salaries that the board members are on? I’m assuming that non-executive directors are paid a modest conpensation, though it was reported with the two newest directors that ‘Argyle carried out an extensive search for their new board members, which included the hiring of a specialist recruitment firm’ so it might not have been cheap.

I’m sure Steve will provide the details.

Very easy to sit and troll on the sidelines when you can't even be bothered to go watch it yourself.

If you threw coins at him then yes, you are a Yob/Moron/Cretin/Idiot/Dick... I could go on

And yes we do have Yob's at this club, I see them every time I go to a home or away game

He's failing, I'm not one for screaming to get the manager out but I do feel it's getting close to the time where I think he's done as much as he can and a change might be our only chance of survival, but why does he deserve to be abused like this?

Whenever I have met him he's been polite and courteous, I'll not be abusing him

This for me. Still hope he can turn it around but I’ve been hoping this for weeks now. I won’t abuse the guy though it’s ridiculous to do so

 

[briangreen]

Some of our fellow supporters are yobs, but they do have a point. Nothing looks good atm...

You're either drunk or high. Which is it, out of interest?

Its the 'Social Media' times we live in I'm afraid. Being unfollowed or not liked on Facebook is just so unbearably painful, having a real world response is beyond that......

 

[landons forehead]

When he arrived I really liked him.

His interviews and comments to the media have increasingly begun to grate on me.

Some people loved how he used to wind up opposition fans and managers, I found it bizarre. At times I found it unprofessional.

I found it very rude he responded to a difficult question from Radio Devon with “We’ll continue to prove people wrong, and we’ll continue to prove you wrong” and then walking off.

Lately I haven’t liked the fact he has made comments which appear to contradict those from most other people who saw a game (claiming we were the better team when we have lost heavily).

I didn’t like the nature of his comments towards Dyson this week, they weren’t necessary and appeared very odd.

Today, after another substandard performance, he decides to call a section of the Green Army ‘yobs’ when asked about his position at the club.

I think this was very unwise and not a clever move at all.

From this point on Derek Adams will always have an incredibly difficult relationship with the fan base, even if he manages to string a couple of wins together.

Perhaps there is a discussion to be had about settling up his contract, because after today I can only see things becoming more and more sour between him and The Green Army.

Perhaps it would be better for Plymouth Argyle Football Club and better for Derek Adams if he were to leave.

Sums up my thoughts.

Not sure £20 is the average ticket, many are children and season ticket holders. More like £15 I reckon so nearer £3M and most of that will be tied up in DAs salary, the management, players, running costs and Pilgrim Pete's hat.

And don't forget the VAT at 20%
