I know managers like to work with people they know but we are looking more like footballs' answer to Friends Reunited. Makes you wonder about the Cassons' input to appointments or whether they just leave it to the management to sort themselves.As for MM listening to his pre-match interview on RC on Saturday was a precursor to Sundays result. He makes Jack Dee sound like Lee Evans, How he would inspire any footballer is beyond belief. I was prepared to give him a chance but to continue would be bad for us and worse for himself. If Graham Barrow is still free get him in. Possibly even John Sheridan who could team up with his brother and do for us what the Cowleys have done for Lincoln.
Good post. The whole mate/family/cliquey shite going on is destroying the club from top to bottom, enough is enough now.

Graham Barrow is a real shout. Experienced as hell & North West based but I imagine wouldn't be cheap.

Who made the call on danny livsey to go cox or casson ? I think he would have been a good shout for at least player assistant manager possibly could have stepped up to manage think we would have been better organised

They will also want the sort of money that PC won't want to pay after losing over £2M since he came.

PC seems to be reigning in the money which is why the players sold for good amounts in the summer were not replaced, or replaced with players who cost less to buy and pay wages to as well.
As a consequence the new ones weren't as good players either.

PC also had to pay half of the cost of the new floodlights.

Feel a bit sorry for him actually as I don't think he realised that something he did to honour the memory of his father would cost him so much.

This league is very hard to get out of and requires a bottomless pocket.
Come on how naive are you, he did his due deligence etc made all the stadium plans etc. You're telling me a successful business man didn't know about the costs involved
I don't think he did. He might be a successful businessman but Football's a totally different ball-game (pardon the pun). I believe the guy made promises that he now realises he can't fulfil.

I believe his ambitions - and his five year plan for Football League status - have now been curtailed. I also believe he now sees mid-table respectability as a long term objective as opposed to promotion to the EFL.

Our optimism has been severely deflated and diluted but it's something we're all going to have to get used to. :(

I honestly believe his plans are now hinged on sustainability in the National League. Any future progress will probably be in the FA Cup :( (there's always next season) and our old friend the FA Trophy...

With regards to yesterday's debacle it's obvious that Mickey Moore is not up to the task. The guy was given an opportunity - he tried - he's failed. You can attach much of the blame on the management team with regard to planning, organisation and fitness levels but not all - what actually happens on the field is down to the players. Some of the players have to 'carry the can'.

I didn't attend yesterday because I had a feeling we'd go out so I can't comment on the dynamics of the team or the players. However, to go out to a team two leagues below us - a team containing amateur players - is shocking! The players, this morning should be hanging their heads in shame - but will they?
I doubt it. I don't see much passion or commitment from the majority of this team who wear our club's shirts. Therefore - get rid!

By the way, did anyone notice 's Guiseley's result on Saturday? Paul Cox and Yorkshire must be laughing and celebrating this morning!

Just read mm interview on evening mail site,

"I haven't become a bad manager overnight "

"We've been absolutely fantastic last two games"

Is he really this deluded?

He's right there - he was a bad manager right from the start, but to be fair to him it was those who appointed him who should be hanging their heads in shame!

Bad Manager 'Over-night'??????
When was the last time we won a game???????

He usually cites 'bad luck' as the reason for our defeats.

The guy has to go - and send some of the players with him!
They're gutless, devoid of passion, commitment, imagination and incapable of fighting for the team or Barrow AFC.

If any of you players are reading this - and you know who you are - F**k Off!
Get Gone!
Go elsewhere and leave the shirt behind - because you're not fit to wear it! Pretenders and Mercenaries! :evil: :evil: :evil:

What can he say though ?

He's not going to admit the truth and say he's incapable of leading a squad but his training looked nice a pretty with colour co-ordinated cones so that's why he got the job.

IMO he's not a manager at all! He may or may not be a reasonable Assistant (although I get visions of Phil Neal here) to a decent Manager, but that doesn't help us here. When I questioned this appointment at the recent 'event' with Andrew Casson the response was that the team, almost to a man, were chuffed that Moore was the choice and they were looking forward to working with him. I think I would question that now.
Golden opportunity lost there. I know it isn't everyone's choice, but I would have moved mountains to get Holt in the seat.

The guy has lost his marbles. Even if we were playing well(which we ain't, its average as F) at Non League it's all about results!
Don't hate the guy but he shouldn't of been given the job in the first place. Poor since Cox left.
Time for Casson to speak out, apologise for the mistakes, send Moore on his travels, get Holt in and the club reunite together. Let's learn from it before it gets even more disastrous.

Moore can not be blamed for any of this if the truth is told. MM took a punt and applied for the job or was advised to apply for the job the rest is down to the owners. No one .. no one in their right mind would give a rookie the job with an extra 12 months on top of the 18 months he had remaining.
Paul Casson is a self made businessman we all know that so maybe there is method in the madness somewhere along the lines .. but what I do know is that patience will run out if league form doesn’t improve soon. We need wins and we need to see performers on the pitch
