I give a f*ck about performances when we play badly and then because of that fail to get a result. As regards the rest of your post, any reply I make is just going to make us go round in circles.
Ultimately the only thing I care about is going up automatically. I don't care if Adkins achieves an amazing points per game ratio or whatever other stats you want to supply me with (and huge handicap? Give me a break.) If we don't finish at least second then it would have been abject failure on Adkins' part, no excuses.
