    To the same extent Bobby? I don’t think so.

    This is like a pub quiz team who have lost by one point because in answer to the question “what was the Beatles first UK No1, one said “From me to you”, but the others went with “Love me do”!

    It matters not a jot who said what, the truth of the matter is we have all lost.

    Plenty of passion being shown here. How about we all channel it in the right direction?

    As for people not having moaned and groaned loud enough, that would be a sound argument if the moaning and groaning had been constructive. But it hasn’t.

    Err, beg to differ.

    Plenty of constructive suggestions have been posted on here in the past five years.

    The best we’ve got out of it is a lick of paint in the Iron Bar.

    Swann is far more likely to listen to constructive argument about the things that really matter

    No he isn’t, which is why we find ourselves in the mire.

    It was exactly the same with Wharton

    No it wasn’t, don’t lie.

    Shame some people didn’t show the same outrage when black players were being abused on social media.

    All we got then was “I wouldn’t take the knee” and “BLM is a Marxist organisation”.

    Pot/kettle, and all that.

    with a bit of luck you might get to double figures.

    The current poll would suggest triple figures!

    Careful ‘tash. That could be construed as shameful personal abuse.

    Legitimate grievances and personal abuse are not the same.

    Idiot!

    Yet plenty of you are on here speculating about what it says.

    As are you!

    We’ve been terrible this season just like we were in the season before we signed Mussy, Bara and Crosby, then look what happened.

    That season we had a visit from the Loan Ranger who scored 23 goals in 42 games. We also had a “run through brick walls for the club” CF called Steve Torpey who scored 11 in 43.

    This year we’ve had Ryan Loft and Abo Eisa (9 apiece).

    A quarter of our games have seen one or no shots on target. Can you imagine Torps or McLean going through a game without a pop on goal?

    And as for the players brought in post-haste, well despite starting brightly they have sunk to the depths of uselessness that the rest of the team display.

    But hey, you just keep clapping.

    Have you? You must work there.

    Or are you just spouting shite as usual?

    If there was anything good about it Mr Swann would surely have been singing from the highest hillside.

    The fact that no official statement has been forthcoming would suggest there isn’t.

    We’ll see.

    Our you could write a few more words on the situation the club finds itself in rather than dodge the issue like Boris at PMQ.

    I’ll still make the 300+ miles round trip, but less often.

    I’ll probably just come down for the big games like Chesterfield and Notts County.

    The best fan action would be for 18 of us to form a match day squad to turn out at Bradford!

    If he’s going he needs to go now.

    What we don’t want is another summer of recruitment courtesy of the Swanns and a manager who says “yes Peter”.

    We want a committed and experienced coach who can bring the right players to the club.

    If Cox stays until October when we’re in the bottom four again with unfit, underperforming, non-league hopefuls. Whoever comes in will have a job akin to the fifth labour of Hercules!

    Of course he’s not experienced, it’s his first managerial position.

    But you don’t let a learner driver take a double-decker bus with no brakes and a dodgy clutch down a steep hill!

    Barrow to lose their last three games and Cods to win two and draw one would do it.
