Swindon Town v Barrow, match thread

What [SwearFilter] me off about that is the board making him sign a non disclosure agreement!, open and honest !

Not sure which side instigated the non-disclosure agreement, but listening to Paul Hornby's Radio Cumbria interview at the time he sounded frustrated about that particular situation, so who knows?

Come on Pete Wild wouldn't have instigated that !
It's obvious it was over who signs the players etc. Example Harrison Neal available we don't sign him ! But wild goes to Fleetwood and signs him, I rest my case!

wont be long now till home crowds drop back to the NL days of 1000 on a good day, be very surprised the next game will get 2000 at this rate, the inability to drop the mallet isnt only damaging the trust of the fans but gonna soon hit the clubs pockets, only then will i think the board will do something.

Not long ago people were slating Stanway but after a few games I thought he was starting to look a good keeper, when fit definitely worth a start imo.

I’ve always been one to say it’s up to the players that cross the line on the pitch that determine the result and their fault at end of day, but starting to think it’s time for clemence to go. I also think there is a dressing room issue, is that because if the manager? Time will tell

Ian evatt could be available soon

Back together with Tyler Smith

[jeff1966]

All of the good work from evatt, the board, wild, building a fan base and community has been undone by jumping into bed with a football agent

Ever thought of the return of Michael Jolley

[Jonty]

Creativity. Today is the day he decides to bench Elliot Newby and start a line up with no width and a midfield that has provided a combined total of ONE assist all season. (Newby has provided 5 assists) just what was the game plan with that starting 11 that was going to provide the supply into the box for Pressley and Acquah?

Desperately looking for a way for us to get goals by ditching the only way we've managed any sort of threat

I was on the fence, hoping that results since Chelsea had been down to too many key players missing, but today was a chance with some new players to hopefully bring some spark, but by all accounts we've been second best again all over.

It ain't working no matter what he says or does, the fans frustration is getting louder and I don’t see where this gets better with Clemence in charge. Our EFL status is at real risk and we simply cannot rely on other teams below us not picking up points.

Fingers crossed there are 2 worse teams in this league?

[HenneysKnee]

We should’ve gone in for Coleman before Gillingham got him.

Would have done exactly that; Coleman feels like a good fit for Barrow

[Barrow afc 2018]

Let’s be honest Jonty being Barrow this can only end in one way, you know it, I know and all our diehards know it. Unless and it’s a big unless the BOD act now otherwise if there’s one team you can bet on in the bottom 6 to go down get your money on yes you’ve guessed Barrow. Trust and hope I’m wrong but as I mentioned earlier we are Barrow.

Results aside, has there been any progression under Clemence? He would have more support if you could see a spark of light, that, despite the results you could see what we are trying to do. At least with Wild he came in with a three year vision and I think fans largely subscribed to his quirks. I was never a fan of the fist pumps but understood that it engaged the fans. There’s little of that now.
I just think after today he’s hit the wall, and have no doubt he's tried something different today with that starting 11, especially leaving out Newby and Mahoney who at least try and create chances.

Just seen a snippet of his RC interview on twitter, Clemence looks even more lost and deflated than last week - something I didn't think possible.

[Ace]

Interesting team selection 4-3-1-2 to big tall strikers and a big tall midfielder in behind. Long high straight balls from back to front. Volleyed back forward, hooked over the shoulder forward, smashed blindly forward, we’re seemingly the tactics. Clemence pretty much confirmed this in his interview, based on Swindon’s formation and tactics. It clearly didn’t work. Spence and Gotts particularly looked lost. I’m not sure what kind of coach completely changes his formation and tactics based on the opposition team, a team that is lower in the league than his. Perhaps it’s a coach who in his previous 2 games has started with a back 3 and then changed to a back 4 mid-game. There was of course another change on the hour when we put some wide players on. The upshot is I’m not sure what type of team we are, or are trying to be, I’m not sure the players know either, it’s all a bit of a mess and that’s on Clemence.

Just watched the SC post match interview - no passion, no accountability, no excuses …. Nothing.
