Sign of madness isn't it starting Garner and Kouyate and expecting a different result. The manager's got to accept responsibility for this.

Garner isn't meant for this club. He was shit here, decent at Morecambe, then shit here again.
I agree with many that Telford is a shambles. Dallas, I just haven't seen enough of him to say. Emile, I still think there is a good player in there.

Don't think we can keep him as if we make a change later a new Manager won't be able to bring his own players in the January window.
Happy to be pulled up on this. But absolutely no chance.

Tight game again and we are always trying to play positive football but we lack the quality in the final third, in fact it’s less than that, it’s the penalty area. 😣
I don’t know if playing two up front in a change of shape may yield more goals but this formation we not getting goals. We are not creating clear cut chances.

It's all a bit depressing at the moment.
I like garner, he needs a player up front close to him. He is always isolated collecting the ball into the areas. Needs a good attacking CM getting close or a partner up front.
Width needs to be provided by mahoney and AN other. So far Newby, Kouyate haven't impressed me, 3rd time lucky with kirk I hope.
I don't think our defence trust the young keeper. He makes saves when required but bit lacks the presence and awareness of farman. We play differently at the back which in turn leads to a different all round game plan.
When farms is back our fortunes will change

Stanway hasn't put a foot wrong the last 3 games and I've been critical of him. 2 pens and a shot no league 2 keeper saves is all that has cost him 3 clean sheets. I don't want to get on clemences back because who at league 2level gets our strikers scoring? Certainly not wild and so isn't seem like clemence can either. I'd be pointing more fingers at the midfield than anyone, as I've said before and as I'll say again Robbie gotts is a waste of a shirt. Doesn't score doesn't assist and bar closing down defences does little else. Light weight at best a new no. 10 needed as much as a striker. I've pointed this out before and got abuse but stats don't lie when was his last goal contribution?

Got nothing to do with Stanway, how the f**k will a goalkeeping change alter our attacking play ?, he made 2 brilliant saves that were down to poor defensive play was that his fault ffs by all means be critical but that statement about Stanway is absolutely garbage!

Strikers rubbish, Midfield create nothing, Gotts waste of a shirt, Stanway not trusted by the defence, and now the manager getting stick, but wait when Paul Farman returns our fortunes will change must be some player wonder how many goals he will score, I`m just glad we have 21pts because going by many on the forum we`ll be getting caught by the bottom sides shortly.

Remind me when this poor run started. You have obviously never played the game to the equivalent of todays national league like myself. Albeit in the 70s.

1 win in 10 and the crowds dwindling at a reduced price isn’t good reading. I think he needs some results over the next 3 league games or else he could find himself in trouble

As someone who was worried about Stanway he is actually learning in the job and improving unlike some of our previous keeper.
