Shite.

Too many nothing players, sideways, sideways, sideways some more. We don't move the ball anywhere near quickly enough.

We should have been on the front foot second half, really having a go at them and controlling the game. But we don't have anybody capable of grabbing hold of a game by the scruff of the neck.

How many players do we have who actually get you excited when they get the ball? In today's team, Kay aside there's none who may me think "something might happen here".

Very slow in possession once again, poor poor stuff.

You wonder where a win is going to come from. Tough to watch in the second half.

Wasted opportunity to get 3 points. One up at HT against 10 men, shocking goal to give away, confidence sags, fail to capitalise on chances late on.

No Quigley in attack = we won't score.

No Platt in defence = opponents will score.

Elementary my dear Watson.

NOT GOOD ENOUGH FULL STOP. Another 2 puts dropped against [SwearFilter] poor opposition with 10 men.

:sentoff: Far to much passing sideways and backwards with no forward movement

Not good to be so dependent on a couple of players. Made plenty of signings. Should be doing much better

I wasn't overly concerned following the Stevenage, Newport games. However, I can't help but be considerably worried following the last two games, 75% of which were against ten men, and we've only mustered a solitary goal and point.

Huge chance again today and we've failed to take it. I can't see where we are going to pick up a win from and there can't be many teams that are less threatening than ourselves at the moment.

On the plus side, Luke James best game for Barrow, C Taylor looks good and Zouma too.

Looking at a relegation battle here, either we book our ideas up or we will be the first team ever to be relegated after coming out the national leauge.

I'm glad we haven't all gone insane. Sacking a manager so early into a season would be ridiculous. I'm happy to seemingly be in the minority with that opinion!

We do need Quigley, Platt and Ntlhe back soon. Not only for their quality but to maintain some consistency with our starting eleven.
