17/18 VNL - Hartlepool 1 - 0 Barrow

[Bingo]

Exactly. You dont' extend somebody's contract when there is no reason so to do if you have any intention of sacking him. Unless you're completely stupid, of course!

Or actually want to cut costs and get relegated.
He lives miles away and must see it as a drain on his resources,and therefore he has no allegiance to Barrow

What a load of utter crap - 900k wage bill because he wants to see us go down to cut costs - we would have a load of locals playing if that was the aim and go part time, not sign a 3 year deal at the training facility

Sad for those that went tonight - 96 points still up for grabs

Based on what one performance?

Spirit of 2009 on and off. Bored with the knockers. Limited but brave. Support superb.

You are entitled to your view.
Do you think the players wages are 900k ?
If so I think you need a reality check.
They could include all the none playing staff even the groundsman and termination payments and players travel expenses.
I bet Paul Cox got a pay off hence the silence.
So he bought a pig in a poke he admitted he bought it whilst drunk.
I will ask you one question if we get relegated would his costs go up or down in relation to players and travel.
I think Paul Casson thougt he was playing fantasy football buying BAFC now reality is biting.
And in true I am a Celebrity - get me out of here

Expected a real tanking tonight so if those who were there said we played well and didn't deserve the defeat, then i'll go with that. However we really need some confidence in the side from somewhere and i really can't see where it's going to come from with the current management set up.

Best performance by us thus far this season.
Couldn't fault the effort or the application, even though we came up just short. Some of the players have let themselves down of late but those that played tonight set the standard to a man, and nothing less will do from herein, just needed that cutting edge.

Think you can more than hold your heads up high, a really poor performance once again from ourselves. Thought first half we dominated without creating much as normal. Second half we never got going and if it wasnt for the best keeper in the league we may of lost. I saw you on tv against fylde and obviously tonight i dont think you will have any problems staying up. Maybe a striker short at the minute? As for us one up front at home once again. Mind boggling tactics once again from our manager. I know we have injuries but he sets up as if were playing barcelona. The league is so tight one good month and things will look way better. Bit like us we have somehow won 5 drawn 2 and lost 1 in last 8 games.

agreed. Absolutely can't fault the lads tonight. The people that are having a go are the people that weren't there, simple as, get behind the lads. It'll come.

You really do believe your own propaganda.
It’s so off the wall it’s almost artistic...

[mr_grey]

Maybe MM can look at a consistent squad and not chop and change. I know that there are injury issues,but from what's being said..the lads and supporters put heart and soul into the game .
Are we more nervous at home because some if the crowd get on players back instead of supporting.?

[boyliegladbach]

100% from all them last night. Keep that up and the goals will come. Left happy but gutted,we were not great but the effort was there.Hartlepool rubbish as well and apart from the goal offerered very little.
Nice enough place and ground.

[spirit of 1990]

Everyone can see it's not good but for people to continually have digs, mentioning the same old stuff over and over isn't doing anything but annoying people now, especially those who attend the away games. There's lads and lasses who travel the length of the country on a Saturday and spend hours going to places like Hartlepool or Solihull on a Tuesday night.....then to read snide remarks on their way home - it's no wonder they see their arses.

The teams in a rut & confidence must be low, they need people to get behind them now (like the support did last night....all through the game)

The two main contributors to doom and gloom Pedro and a former member of this forum and constantly trying to goad genuine fans, I personally think enough is enough.

What do the mods think about it all, you're quick to issue a warning to me when I have a bit of light hearted banter with the big baby a former member of this forum. At least I will say of Pedro whilst he comes out with some dross he doesn't go telling tales when he gets a slating off people.

Its our football team that is in a bad position at the moment. Hats off to the fans that went and supported and through most of what I have read they gave it their all. Unfortunately a late goal undid all of the hard work.

He may be annoying at times but what he has been saying all along is starting to come true. I think a few fans have shown themselves up here and found themselves frustrated resulting in them looking at one person to take anger out on. I find it odd that all this abuse has seemingly gone unnoticed.
