Not a scapegoat for me, said since we signed him, he's not good enough

Its always doom whatever happens .. win 5 times in a row the managers off and taking all the players lose a game 1-0 and it's doom and gloom time and we are being relegated.
Factually if we were anywhere near we would have spanked Carlisle.
A team that had not won.
Really not good enough
It was only the second league game of the season.

Newby is not the only player who is not good enough as its unfait to dingle him out
Let’s not get the Dingles involved if possible😁

Was confident going into the game that we could get a result up there but once again we’ve come away with nothing. Early days and things will hopefully settle with the side but do think we’ll struggle for goals. Easy to get sucked into the derby thing but it’s just another game and one we’ve lost today. Onto the next one.

And they’re unbeaten at home in the league this season!

Newby the new scapegoat John ? He needs to get on the chicken and rice .. weak on the ball , doesn’t take his man on kouyate should be starting . Goals and assists are terrible

Just watched the highlights. Definitely not a foul on Vassell but Farman seems to pull his arms back rather than block it?

Yes a mistake at the back has cost us but I think Vassel is a good player. Far more concerned about the lack of teeth at the other end.

Chesterfield beating Crewe at there place 5-0 puts our scrambled win into context along with todays result
Why? 5 0 or 1 0 still get 3 points
Its the way you get them a scrappy goal or a enfatic win
Last few seasons we have been short of a goal scorer and it continues and i realise we are little old Barrow

Not just on about that .
The friendlies gave us a warning
We managed two magnificent wins against the might of HOB and FC united.
When we come up against a bigger team like Fylde could not hack it.
The forwards are hopeless.
I got irate when we signed Bob Ledger when last in the league two goals on his debut and that was it.
The team is a bloody disgrace

It was obvious there would be no pressing as soon as you put aqua up front on his own.
The question is why didn't we set up to press?
It's worked well in other matches. This was dismal .

Stockton was brought in last season because the strikers at the time were not good enough. We’ve still got the same strikers and………they still ain’t good enough. I know Newby is not a striker but would be interested to know when he last scored. Maybe Methuselah could tell us, if he’s old enough.

Firstly the disallowed goal was definitely onside played it through a number of times now. I don't really care how badly we may have played if we'd have got the draw feelings would be rather different on this site. Small margins.
Secondly, maybe its time to start Dallas now surely that's we we've brought him in on loan. If we are playing a 4-2-3-1 you have to have a target man up top. Garner can't really play in that role & like others I feel Acquah is more effective coming on later in games.
Thirdly, usual stupid comment made on here I was fully expecting when viewing the Crewe defeat today suggesting we really must be rubbish if we could only just beat them 1-0 last week. Anybody who's played or watched football at any level knows every game is different.
Fourthly, regarding Newby -he's a nice player but I'm fairly certain he did not score for us last season. Think Kouyate needs a run in the team as I think he will be more aggressive than Newby.
Lastly, I really want to see a more consistent (or consistently good) Gotts this season - over the seasons which just get glimpses of what could be. He has the ability to play both as a No 8 or a No10. He would certainly take the weight off Spence and Campbell to perform at a high level every week to compensate for his inconsistencies as today Campbell wasn't quite at his best and others, like Gotts, need to step up when this happens.
