Barrow v Southport match thread

[The Tomahawk Kid]

Collectively (Excluding Livesey) the starting 11 have become far too complacent without the fear of being dropped. Williams has become a shadow of the player from the one we seen at the back end of last year, It would be very surprising if a FL club would take a punt on him on current form. Harrison & ARH have become disinterested all of a sudden. Changes are needed fast

It makes you wonder if that's all they were playing for...to get noticed..and then off to pastures new?
I miss seeing Ryan Yates play.

I have to say that Paul Cox's recent comments weren't exactly 'uplifting' taken from the current players' perspective.
To have performed such feats as the fantastic unbeaten run/5th from top of the National League/third round of the FA Cup only to have your manager state that CHANGES were going to take place!
It would make a player think...

Let's leave it to Paul Cox. He knows how to deal with players of all shapes and sizes. There is much we outsiders don't know about the players, their temperaments, things that motivate them and styles that bring them on. Every club goes through a dip. We are going through it now. But there is quality in the club. It takes time to build it back up again and have the players singing at the top of their voices again. Cox knows how to do it, but it takes time and away from the public.

Give him the space to make miracles work again. There is no instant fix. Just support them and encourage a second half season come-back.

Well well well!

What a difference 3 games makes. Fans planning their away trips next year in the football league are now slating players performances. Too many negative comments on this thread, needs locking whilst bans are administered.

Go away please.

Looked like we had enough chances in the first half to win or at least get a point.
Nothing much happened in the second half. Keeper looked good.

[BoltonBlue]

The new keeper looks solid...apart from Livesey the rest of the team looked like theyv suddenly realised they won't be getting a big move away to the FL in January.

[Middleton Nick]

There was another scout there on tuesday and he was from Birmingham. He was looking at Williams. However,I hope there is nobody looking at Livesey because he is the only player who is performing consistently at a high level every week.

3 league wins on the bounce before the cancelled Macclesfield game Nov 29th, since then 0 win in the league. We were on a roll then and if i remember right would have gone joint 2nd with a victory. Let's just hope the Macc don't become our bogey team like the 2011 fa cup run. I don't think any of the players have a sense of grandeur but have been distracted by talk and ambition. If we're going to continue to play the PC way with percentage football tactics, then yes they are good enough to make the top 5 but we to see blood, sweat and tears on the field and another Ryan Yates would help
