Micky Adams stressed today during his live press conference that the players are innocent until proven gulity, and he thought they were innocent. He also said that some of the 9 were not even there.

Whn questioned about discipline and his methods he said he treated them as adults, but a minority had let him down, and maybe he should have imposed a curfew...but he couldn't follow all of them 24 hours a day.

After a question about the Birmingham game, he said all players who are available to play on Sat will be up for selection.

He kept re-iterating that an internal investigation was to be held, and then he would decide what action to take against who.

He said he felt he had a morale duty to offer to resign, but the Board were adamant he was right man for job, and he says he owes it to the fans to not quit.

"After events of the past week, the players wish to reaffirm their commitment to the club and to the manager and that they will be doing everything possible to keep the club in the Premiership in the remaining games of the season.

``We can assure our fans that we will be concentrating all our efforts on preparing for Saturday's match with Birmingham City and that we will not allow events of the past week to undermine those preparations.

``Regrettably, we have been advised by our legal representatives, that at this moment in time we cannot make any comment regarding the accusations made against some of the players.

``All we can reiterate is that the players concerned continue to protest their innocence in the strongest possible terms of all the criminal charges laid against them.''
