People moaning now who were moaning a few weeks ago about his appointment. Nowt so fickle as (Barrow) football fans. I'd hazard a wild guess Cox has persuaded him to become Guiseleys' chief scout

Lots of people on this forum with hidden agendas. In the 90s the only way to find anything out was via the Barrow soccerline at 20p a minute.

This thread, the Ogden thread and the Hughes thread based on rumour.

And maybe the club will make a statement tonight or tomorrow it's not going to make statements everytime someone hears something down the pub or a couple of hours before a game

Surely if 3 threads are based on a rumour (according to you) then that screams that the club should be making a statement.

So every time someone puts a thread on here based on rumour the club has to put out a statement?

How ridiculous.

Tell you what - let's have a special area - it could be entitled rumour of the week or even better today's rumour!

Get real.

Absolutely not, but surely the club should not be relying on twitter rumours and undisclosed sources to allow the fans to have any information. Barrow has never been good at communicating, but this isn't an excuse for it being shocking going forward.

Wake up mate, the walls are falling down around us and people still have their heads in the sand and arse in the air!

But if he hasn't departed there is nothing to make a statement about is there?

Agreed that if he has left then we should be told but as always this club does it in its own time - but there could be good reason for that.

Your 4 concerns:
Paul Cox has resigned - the club has already made a statement about it
Ogden resigned - a rumour begun late this afternoon. Does the club have to comment on every rumour?
22 squad. We have 20. Is it really necessary for a statement?
Community staff - the only one possibly deserving of some explanation but it's not life or death, is it?
It all comes 'round again.
