Yes it’s a sad day, clubs don’t have many legends but Barrie was one of ours, I put him alongside Jack Brownsword when I think of Iron legends. Just a wonderful wonderful footballer RIP Barrie thanks for the memories.

Tango man was hurting his club by slagging his players off because they would lose faith in him and not give of their best, it was his decision to go public and a poor one IMO. AB situation is totally different and I reckon he will gain more support from it with the vast majority of the fans, nowt to do with rules it’s to do with people backing the players and team, unless you think differently of course.

So only certain people get to voice their opinions on players but the manager who manages them cannot respond publicly in their defence, yeah right Awaywego whatever.

Isn’t AB simply giving his opinion on their opinions,seems fair to me.

Yeah I’m happy with AB saying what he said and his clarification follow up is fine too. There will always be people with an agenda who look for faults, not saying they want people to fail or anything like that but banging on about negatives be it a certain player or the manager can only be repeated so often before it becomes a distraction too many. There is voicing opinion and voicing it in a certain way particularly if it’s abusive about a player that is counter productive, don’t think you need to be Einstein to work that one out.

Well that was so funny on so many counts, congratulations to the Cods but the Mancs, oh dear me they are beyond awful, lol.

Well the Mancs are used to playing in pouring rain so that’s not an excuse they can use. Got to say as much as I want Grimsby to fail in their league games , any team that can beat Man U on the night gets my vote, so funny but there’s a long way to go yet.

Regarding Becks flick ons I agree nobody reads them or gets into a position prior to him heading the ball where they give themselves a chance of using it. We have some good movement in the team in certain situations but our lack of movement is so noticeable when Beck is going for a header from our keepers long kick or a centre backs long punt upfield. He’s nowhere near as mobile or effective as Whitehall but we appear to play a game that suits Whitehall better, Beck is like the afterthought we don’t have a plan for which is both puzzling and ridiculous, we need to utilise this guy better when we play him IMO.
Always funny when certain posters get their knickers in a twist when a manager supports his players and calls some criticism out, what did he say, stay behind your keyboard and don’t bother coming to the ground. Bit OTT maybe but he’s passionate about his players and the club and he’s just sticking up for them in his own way, maybe people should chill out a bit more and don’t get so prickly when their criticism gets fired back at them. If people can’t handle it and stay away that’s their choice but it’s a childish response from some on here IMO.

Wasn’t Butlers comments today more about what is said on social media, x or whatever it is, don’t think he was referring to inside the ground but I may have misinterpreted his comments. Didn’t hear anything negative about Maison from the crowd today, general comments were the boy done good.

Proper sterling effort from the boys this afternoon and a thoroughly deserved point under difficult conditions. Don’t know what Horton was thinking, yes their guy made a meal of it but you cannot raise your hands or elbows whatsoever, silly boy but he will learn from it. Starbuck my MOTM and AB got his subs right, there were a lot of tired bodies out there today, good job guys, great battling point.

You prepared to give Maison one last go is very noble and generous of you les, more proof for me to say thank goodness AB is manager and you aren’t les. I’m just being an honest ordinary fan here BTW.

Surely a piss poor start doesn’t include the late saves yesterday which a lot of fans are applauding him for? Don’t think you can have it both ways, we win our first three games and late saves by Maison against Tamworth and Sutton have allowed that to happen, always two sides to every story. Yes he’s made mistakes but they haven’t cost us games and yes his saves in two of those three games have enabled us to win, facts are facts, so far the facts support him as doing ok.

Whilst we are winning or drawing most games and don’t go on a losing run with Maison getting the blame for some vital goals conceded then AB will give the lad every chance and quite right too IMO. He’s only ever going to learn by playing games and gaining experience and if he’s showing some errors then they can be worked on with the coaching staff. It’s not ideal but the budget is what it is and AB has made his choice so we just need to support the lad as much as possible, if changes in the future need to be made then AB will implement them if he deems it necessary.
