    It’s not the worst squad in the league, Swann said we’re good enough to stay up. He never tells porkies.

    Last night was embarrassing, we had no intention to win that game or try to extend our lead once we got it. Barrow had 80% possession. F*cking 80!!! It was awful to watch. We got lucky and deserved to lose, the players are shit, Cox is shit, the chairman is shit…it’s just shit all round!

    If he is serious in wanting fans to return you have to treat fans with respect.

    …and offer at least a little incentive to hand over your hard earned, you know like maybe winning more than 1 game in 24 attempts!

    Don’t worry, as Swann says we’ve got 35 games to turn it around…and all it’s going to take is a little bit of energy and determination.

    The guy is living in cloud cuckoo land.

    Watching on iFollow and yes we’re losing but apart from the Tranmere game it’s probably been our best performance this season. We’re actually making more than 2 passes in succession and have created a lot of decent chances.

    I’d say he’s looked better than Taft who, since his loan spell, hasn’t looked like he has any desire to actually defend!

    Zero quality across the entire pitch. 1 win in 19, zero goals scored in 12 of those. Swann is well and truly destroying this club, only one place we’re heading and that’s non-league.

    O’Malley vs Thompson is a good headache to have. O’Malley’s delivery is always spot on but for me Thompson has probably been our best performer so far this season. Play both?

    Hallam back in the squad, wonder how long he lasts this time!? Great start so far.

    Cox is very much part of the problem. I can’t be bothered to work it out again but last season I posted a decent stat that showed around 88% of our points were gained when playing either 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1. Why does he continue to think that playing 5 at the back will work!?

    Before the game they had as many wins as us this season…just shows how crap we are!

    Yes, with a sprinkling of Turk. The myth needs dispelling that he was a Swann signing. He was here on trial and played in a friendly vs Watford. The blame should be firmly at Mr. Cox’s door!

    Don’t expect Coxy to change, especially considering our best results away from home last season came after playing 11 men behind the ball, having 30% possession, 1 shot on target and looking to play on the counter (1-0 wins at Cambridge, Colchester and Port Vale spring to mind).

    Last season there were times where he looked like grease lightning. Haven’t seen that at all yet this season…either something must be up, or League 2 defenders have gotten a lot quicker.

    Wood more than justified his selection and was our best player yesterday. Hackney, not so much. Thought it was strange not to start Scrimshaw. Yes he only had 1 day of full training but when joined he barely had any and put in a MOTM performance!

    The writing was on the wall as soon as Manny got sent off. Cox just doesn’t know how to adapt to games and change things. We probably would have ended up with the same number of shots on goal and possession stats had it remained 11 vs 11.

    I think in Adkins first game in charge when Crozzer tucked away that penalty in injury time, you could smell something special was brewing that season!

    We could and should have won at least 4-0 vs Tranmere!

    How long is Loft out for? Would like to see him and Scrimshaw up top, can see it working well.

    Think it was Ben Liddle the season before last. Made a couple of appearances but didn’t look very good. Now on loan at Queen of the South from Bristol Rovers.

    Hopefully Scrimshaw can be that finisher we need. Can also see him working well as a partnership with Loft. I think if either of those were in the team on Saturday we would have finished some of those clear cut chances we created!

    He worked hard without ever really doing much…apart from one of bits control from a high ball I’ve ever seen from a Scunny player.

    Have to give credit to Watson, he’s looked a lot more solid so far this season! Hope he keeps it up.

    Centre backs looked strong. We should be much better offensively when Loft, Scrimshaw, Bunn and Perry come back into team.

    So, who do we have out injured?

    Bilson
    Millen
    Kenyon
    Hallam
    Loft
    Bunn
    O’Neill
    Jarvis

    I make that 8 first teamers, 10 if we include the two more potentially out because of Covid. Injury lists are readily available and up to date across the web for Premier League teams (used for things such as fantasy football). Having a quick look, there is not one Premier League team with the amount of first teamers out injured that we have. Arsenal have 8 out (which includes 3 due to Covid) and they’ve roundly been labelled as currently having an injury crisis. So yes, going by this I believe we get a ridiculously high amount of injuries that is largely incomparable to most other clubs (at least in the Premier League).

    You’ve already answered your own question, nothing has improved except the ticketing system.

    Players are worse.
    Coaching staff are worse.
    Stadium is worse.
    League position is worse.
    Debt is worse (before we had our club assets stolen).
    Attendances are worse.
    Just the overall feeling towards the club is worse!

    Match thoughts – we were crap, Sutton were crap but better than us…and without some good saves from Watson and them missing absolute sitters we could have easily lost by 3 or 4!

    So we cry out for a striker, supposedly bust a gut to get him in only to put him on the bench? If he’s been involved with Bournemouth’s first team like Cox has been professing (although I had a look and he hasn’t made their squad at all this season) then surely he’s fit so just throw him in there and let’s see what he can do. Can’t be any worse than playing Green up there!
