Nothing will change until at least the owners sell up.
It’s Swann’s fault we can’t hold on to a 3-0 lead at home and crumble? Behave!

He can go for me. Absolute clown!

In the relegation spots now, we probably won’t get back out.
They’re going to tear us a new one.
At 5pm on Saturday.
Doesn’t matter what happens at 5pm on Saturday, sacking the Manager will not change a thing as sacking the other managers has proved. THE MANAGER IS NOT THE PROBLEM!!!
He’s not THE problem, but he’s definitely a big part of it…he’s worse than Cox ffs!
So Swann is the only reason why our supposed footballers haven’t been able to string two passes together and get ripped to shreds by two bottom half National League teams!?
Our defending is absolutely abysmal. The amount of times already this season that teams have been able to get in behind and flash balls across the 6 heard box unchallenged is shocking. Yeovil did it about 3 times too, they just thankfully had an immobile tree up front who couldn’t get on the end of them!

Shouldn’t have lasted past the end of last season after completely downing tools and throwing our youngsters under the bus.
What was the plan with that anyway? They’ve barely had a sniff so far this season…Moore-Billam sent out on loan, Young not played a minute, Shrimpton not played a minute, Cribb not played a minute, Gallimore played barely 10 minutes (and not forgetting Lobley being released after making his debut and being dragged off after 30 minutes)!
Not saying they’re good enough, but what was the point!?

We are very bad BLT but we did win one of the last 35. It was against Oldham so it only just counts.
Apologies, that should have been 1 away win in 36…either way it’s absolutely appalling!
“Players look like rabbits in the headlights, don’t look like they know what they’re doing.”
Comment courtesy of Nigel Adkins. 36 games and counting without an away win!
I’ve never understood the “O’Malley is good going forwards” comment. He’s got a great cross but when in possession with no space in front of him he always looks absolutely terrified and plays the ball backwards. I’ve never seen him take on a man or bomb forward on the overlap, something which Ogle has done multiple times already in an Iron shirt.
Daniel was playing right wing yesterday and was abysmal.
Agree with the above in that Taft is a complete liability, we definitely need another centre back.
Ogle was our best player, a proper full back who looks rapid going forwards and decent enough defensively. Complete contrast to O’Malley who can’t defend for toffee and looks terrified to go forward.
Nuttall played well, he needs support and I liked the way Carver baffled for everything when he came on. We should be playing 4-4-2 but if that becomes our preferred formation then we need wingers in the building pronto.
Shocking defending cost us yesterday but we could have quite easily come away with a point after the chances we had in the 2nd half. That wouldn’t have happened last season and we probably would have crumbled 5-0 so there’s at least that positive to take away from the game.

If it’s Rory then maybe that’s why he’s not in L1 or L2.
Or maybe it’s because he’s sh*t?

He’s definitely higher class player league 1 max
So where are the League 1 and 2 teams lining up for his signature??
if Nuttall scored a hattrick people will still criticise him
No, they wouldn’t.

3,131…surprised there were that many there, looked a bit sparse in the stands!
I’d probably downgrade Whitehouse to a 7 and Daniel / Nuttall to a 6.
I had no idea what position Daniel was supposed to be playing and Nuttall always looks like he’s trying to run in quick sand.
Good performance though, Butterfield looked quality. Real nice to have that winning feeling back on a Saturday evening!
I doubt Ronaldo would have scored more than 3 or 4 playing for the teams we put out last season.
I mean, he probably would have wouldn’t he? Especially considering that donkey Loft scored more than that amount in half a season (in which he was out injured for half of that).

Has Watson managed to get fixed up yet?
Having a quick trawl of the interweb it looks like the only player we released to get fixed up was Jarvis who’s gone to Torquay. Think I’d actually prefer him over Nuttall which says a lot!

Judgement will be reserved until seeing him pull on an Iron short but please forgive me for being underwhelmed.

This will be his 5th season with us, was in the team when we got relegated from League One…absolute madness that he got given a new 2 year deal!

Still not sure how the young MFs are going to get much game time in their true positions.
Do you want them to? Are they good enough?
23 year old Australian. Can play centre back and midfield and has a long throw. Deal done according to FLW.
The font of all reliable knowledge that is Wiki has him as predominantly a right back who can also play left back, centre back and centre midfield.
Actually sounds like the best sort of signing we could hope for in our current plight…we’re definitely short of options at right back and centre back so having someone who can cover those positions with experience in the FL ain’t all that bad!

The fans who still to this day have yet to return probably disagree that “we just sold a player”.
Good win tonight for the young-uns!
Taft’s performance last season was right up there with the worst I’ve ever seen from a centre half. I’m hoping he was playing through some sort of injury as he most definitely needs to up his game back to levels he showed when first arriving on loan!
More hated than Wharton Snr. after selling Barrie Thomas?
Could literally be anyone. Who envisaged Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney buying Wrexham or WAGMI United buying Crawley? Whoever it is I just hope it gets over the line pronto as this relationship with Swann is just toxic and needs to be severed!

A decent watch and sums up the current shit show pretty well!

Three things certain in life…death, taxes and Jordan Hallam on the physio table!
To be fair that’s a pretty impressive signing for this level. If we can get that sort of calibre striker signed up as well then I might actually head into the season with a positive outlook!
