Please no blaming the players who have come in today, they deserved a chance (and still do) but think it was too many changes and a change to formation. It hasn’t worked at all.

What a time to lose form. 😔Will need to turn this around quickly or bye bye play offs

Now, now people. Auto has gone. Let's just see how it pans out. We are Barrow after all.

Only two wins off the automatics.

Can't see where our next win is gonna come from, lost to teams we should be dispatching in the lower echelons, hard games coming up next, need to turn it around or it could be sink or swim.

‘Lack of confidence’ said Danny Livesey, exactly what l thought Tuesday night. Need the players to really stand up for themselves next game.

Three absolute stuffings in a row from where we were the performances are totally embarrassing. Score Three away from home and to come away beaten absolutely gutting.

Bizarre. Been pretty solid at the back for months, but crying out for a striker, now we seem to have to the answer to one, plug one hole and the other starts leaking

But why? Why should they have been lacking in confidence? We were 4th with a chance to go 3rd when this bad run began.

All looks bad mainly because we lost at home to Forest Green. If we had won that, we would probably be talking about loss of away form but lots of home games to come. I still believe that we will finish in the playoffs. Stockport have lost two on the trot and were well beaten today, Wrexham lost 3 on the trot but have won their last two, Notts County have also lost three out of five.

Whatever happens from now on, we must all - fans, the players and the coaching staff - grit our teeth and stick with it.

That's always the way. Plug one hole and a leak appears elsewhere.

We’ve gone from a bump in the road to a very damaging slump. Wildy is between a rock and a hard now should he stick or twist. Got to get our mojo back somehow. Come on Pete we can do this.

We are a good team but maybe they are putting themselves under too much pressure. Need to brush ourselves down and take this run on the chin. It’s down to them to work it out and the leaders on the pitch stand up. All week on defending coming up for training.

Remain positive we can turn this around and looks like we now have got a goalscorer in Stockton.
