Agree our work rate has eased off and they have been finding space all of a sudden.

It was another set piece goal from someone who wanted the ball more than a blue shirt. You cant train that into them. None of our players got off the ground.

And there's the one after a decent first half. :roll:
We seem to have dropped right off after half time.

Second half statistics tell you all you need to know. 11 completed passes in 25 minutes, 25% possession.

Let's be honest, it's been the same old long ball sh1te. Bypassing Gotts, Banks et all. Not so much the latter but the message must be to just knock it on, because the midfielders aren't playing through the thirds to the feet of the strikers...just poking it around the corner and in the air (which is the same aerial crap to strikers that can't be expected to win much against giant LG2 defenders). Cooper has been pushing the style since we were 'defensively naive' in playing out at the back.

Well guess what, we're still conceding. No wonder decent footballers like Gotts, Kay, Banks, Stephens have had a down turn in individual performances; Cooper is negating their attributes by playing this dross

Wake up Cooper. Tactically naive sod

How many times do we have to watch Barrow come out for the second half after playing ok in the first, only to look like they have been either given a sleeping draught, or coached to stop any positive intent! I have to question Coopers half time tactical instructions/ motivation.

I have to question why we haven't scored more than a single goal in how many games.... we are very lucky we have teams lower as its looking a repeat of last season at this rate.
