I didn't see what others have seen - Bowers was chuckling and Clarke had a smirk on his face.

Just seemed like a bit of fun.

Clarke obviously didn't want to answer and give anything away to the Harrogate manager by saying what he planned to do with his lineup on Monday!

Let’s be honest the questions they get asked are mostly terrible. I love that he has a bit of spikiness about him because why would any manager want to reveal plans or squad updates before any game? So basically try and come up with better questions.

A very well deserved win and lets be honest on about 4 different occasions during the game if we selected the right final ball we would have won that by a few more .

I thought we completely deserved the win were solid throughout in fact we were immense in a defensive sense and when we played we outplayed them too ,a smashing win and a nice send off for a really good player in Lee Collins .

I'm over the moon 4 wins  in a row .

Well done all involved it was a really good match

Actually think Adams used to be far more spikes with his responses.

DC set the ground rules early doors, and for me the ZOOM press conferences have been quite informative and jovial.

With regards to his manner ‘within the club’ the players seem together, he has successfully reintegrated Robbo and Legge, made Mills and Crooks look like league players, managed Manny back to a position where he has played full games back to back, and mad3 us competitive again and led us to safety.

I am optimistic for the future when he will be working with his own squad.

in short he will do for me - spikes /banter whatever you wish to class it as.

Great win, well deserved and barely gave them a sniff all game.

Could of had more which is the only criticism but thought Theo worked hard today and deserved his goal.

Defence was solid against the elbow flinging Bowman and four wins on the spin probably gets us safe.

Really pleased by the game management in injury time, don’t think the ball left the corner flag for around 3 and a half minutes of the 4 allotted!

Shame it’s come so late that we’ve found our mojo again but looks as though our worst fears won’t be realised and we have the structure to push on.

As for DC interview I don’t mind it; Adams was the same and it’s a bit on banter and doesn’t give Harrogate any hints.

I’d rather listen to him than some of the dull ones of recent managers!

That's not the point. The problem is does he also naturally act so aggressively behind the scenes with club staff. Slippery slope. 

The results seem to suggest they are definitely playing for him , wouldn’t worry about answering bland questions with a sharp comeback!!!

How it came across to me was he was kidding. It is one of them that I can well see how others interpret it differently though. If watch some of the recent press conferences it has been a bit of a running joke with Baggers etc when they ask him about player availability.

Phil has had some practise down the years, I remember how Horton would answer him on more than a few occasions. That was pushing it at times. Adams could also get rather awkward particularly when we lost.

It isn't one question though is it, he's prickly in every interview. My gut feeling while listening to it is that there was no need to snap at the question like that, he's just won 4 in a row ffs. Deal with it. 

I take it more of a sarcastic joke. If you watch his zoom interviews with Phil Bowers ,Mike Baggaley & George Andrews he does it a lot.

It's like his response to Theo's goal saying he was more impressed with his strike of the ball from the cone! Its just the way he his and the lads are clearly responding to it. Linesy said he was like that at Bristol.
