Whing replacement?

[spirit of 1990]

People don’t want to go and watch that awful football. I won’t be going again until it improves

How does that help?

Exactly that!

We’re all disappointed in how things are going but not turning up on a match day doesn’t help anyone.

[Barrow afc 2018]

There’s no two ways about it we are in deep doo doo, never since our return to the EFL does OUR club need us more.
Yes have a whinge that’s only natural in the position we find ourselves in, but what can we do we ask?

We can defend ourselves and really embrace the we are little ol’ Barrow syndrome or for once do something really un akin to being Barrovian and FIGHT yes FIGHT for our very survival, our dedicated owners can’t do it on their own.
Regardless of the results I’ll be there supporting my hometown team the team I’ve supported all my life, the team I love, the team I would watch in Barrow park should that be the case.

Let’s have a Barrovian reset and get behind the club en masse, let’s (all of us) get the club through this bad time it’s now or never your club needs you, your mums, dads, aunties, uncles, nephews, nieces, grand kids and in laws, grab em and bring them to HS to really give the club a Christmas Miracle. Yes us we really can do our bit, as someone famously once said we need a twelfth man out there COME ON.

Apologies for grammar I got on a roll.

I actually thought that overall, and especially the second half yesterday was an entertaining game of football. I thought Barrow showed plenty of attacking intent, something which has been badly lacking for quite a while. I go to games occasionally and only went to a few when Andy Whing was in charge and thought they were all drab, turgid affairs. Compare yesterday’s game with last season’s game at Accrington under Clemence? I think it was - and yesterday’s was 100% better.
Obviously it was a disappointing result but I’m tempted to go to Tranmere now as at least the football is entertaining, even if the results haven’t improved. hopefully that’ll change soon
I can’t think of more than half a dozen entertaining games I’ve seen since the crowds came back post-Covid. Wild was more successful results wise but it was always a hard watch but he did Instill an “all in it together” vibe which is lacking at present.

Having just listened to McDonald’s interview with AJ on bbc sounds he says he still interim but by the sounds of it if barrow win a game the job is his

He also doesn’t see an issue with taking of Whitfield and McCann of yesterday even though that probably cost us the game he also keeps saying the players are feeling sorry for themselves and they need to pull themselves together and get on with it surely as a manager it’s there job to help with confidence not shout about it in a interview

Also Rakeem Harper is spoke about in regards to when he will be back when asked if there was an update McDonald’s straight way snapped and went nope !! The response seemed very short like there was a ongoing issue

I was thinking the same-if we win at Tranmere, the job could be his. Quite an absurd situation really in light of his strange decision yesterday that most people agree was a gamechanger as well as his banal aftermatch comments.

If we appoint McDonald, we go down. Simple as.

And attendances will drop, probably to an unsustainable level.

The present level of attendances does not make the club sustainable without financial support from the owners

Apparently they had 70 applicants

I hope Jason Taylor was one of them!

I thought he was a good motivator and must have learnt a thing or two under Evatt. He must have something for rochdale to be wanting him and they are also doing well.

If/when we get a new manager I do hope the board have a session with the fans beforehand. It was awkward and embarrassing when Clemence was being introduced whilst many of us were wanting to know how and why we had lost Pete Wild. It wasn't fair on the incoming manager to sit through that and it wouldn't have been fair on us fans not to have addressed it.
Do we still have a fans liaison in touch with the board?

I honestly think we need more than a motivater you'd be taking a massive chance on someone who hasn't managed at any level and would be under tremendous pressure !
