We are over analysing the tactical side - Quigley and their number 11 were the difference today. They both had us in knots and were a constant menace. Boo Quigs- he loves it.

Poor again today despite still having a few half chances. Once again we’ve put balls across the 6 yard box and no one near to being on the end of them. First one they put across and it’s a tap in. I’m still happy we appointed PW and confident we will turn things round again. I was disappointed however at his radio interview today saying there’s no need for some supporters waving their arms at full time. Well, can we just remember that in the middle of a financial crisis another 571 supporters travelled and us adults paid £24 a ticket today. Add to that the cost of the bus or petrol, food and drink etc… a family of 3 would have splashed out between £130 and £150 today and add that to the same money they’d have splashed out 2 weeks ago at Tranmere and the home game in between!! That’s partly why there is frustration being shown. Lots of us are choosing to follow the team away instead of spending it on other things. Yes it’s our choice but we still do it despite the increasing financial issues we are all experiencing. I sometimes think these things are forgotten and it becomes expected.

So poor today I don’t know where to start. We are light years away from the team that started the season hungry and wanting it. We seem to have fallen off a cliff. Absolute nowt about us anywhere on the field. Other than Canavan every player seems to have dropped form massively which is a huge worry. Going forward we have zilch, in midfield we seem lacklustre and at the back we ain’t looking water tight. Some do not seem up to the challenge of L2 at present and Wild needs to step up big style asap. Poor poor poor poor

Just to add Quigley is EXACTLY what we miss. A presence up top

Give your head a wobble. Wish I did 90 minutes work a week, sometimes 180 minutes with a mid week game
These are professional sportsmen.

Yeah let's get the lads in the DDH and wire a few lamps up that'll sort us out 👍

Pete Wild keeps going on about the missed chances. The last four games i've seen we have created little and those chances are only half chances at best.

I think I can add Waters to the not good enough list for EFL2.

Waters did well in the National League scoring plenty of goals. However, when he moved up to League 2, he failed, scoring little. League 2 now again with us little has changed, sorry i agree out of his depth.

We created the exact same chance that Quigley put away in the first five minutes. We didn't have an intelligent enough striker to gamble on it.

To be fair to Waters ( though he looks weak) he hasn't played Central perhaps wild could play him there Tuesday, zuk played well the other week at right back!

So ex Halifax players Warren, Waters not good enough, what about ex Halifax Manager Wild, in our next 6 league games we play Gillingham(a), Colchester(h), Crawley(a) Hartlepool(h) poor results in those games it won`t just be the forum in meltdown.

A very realistic and appropriate post. Shows true commitment to the Barrow cause. Hats off to you.
