Why can't people spell Emile Acquah properly.

At least Aquah showed some fight today which is more than what Garner did and Telford does.

I’ve just listened to the post match. It’s the same as the last game. We are close but alas no cigar. Thankfully we have a bit of a cushion but make no bones about it we could quite easily be in Carlisle’s position if he can’t get this sorted out. We don’t want to be in this form going into the last 10 games

Would rather be In our shoes than Carlisle or Morecambe.

We’ve got a bit of a cushion thanks to a good start. But that’s all it was. Let’s not slip into this battle down there. I don’t know how many more times Clemence can keep coming out with the same pre and post match assessments. We need a win from somewhere.

Next Saturday we have to play with an intensity and desire this will get the crowd going, we have to get rid of this fear football and at least give it a go !

Has to go

[FanzoneFan]

Just seen the highlights - the throw in the build up to the goal is definitely a foul throw - The Walsall player has got his foot clearly over the line.

[Rushy]

Campbell out. Preferably via the back or side exit.
Coz he doesn't know how to go forwards.

Disappointing loss today against imo a very average side, beyond me how they are top!!
We are not a BAD side but our confidence is absolutely shot. Gotts was decent today but Spence & Campbell were terrible. Acquah did okay but it was his first game for a while so I expectations weren't high.
We have absolutely no composure on the ball and some players look like they can't wait to get rid off it!
I've no doubt we'll still be in L2 come the end of the season but only because of the start we had. Important transfer window coming up.

[Rushy]

In the pre match chat Adam was saying it's a happy training camp and that's a good thing.
I respectfully disagree. They should be rifting each other. Rifting themselves then rifting each other some more. Then they should be rifted by the manager who himself needs a rifting.
Backwards and sideways jeez....sort this garbage out .

[Sonofsam]

Quite simple, we are looking for "winners" but every man and his dog are all looking for the same type and I just hope we can find that right person

Look mate we’ve not won a game for weeks. We have light hearted social media posts coming out from the club. I’m all for it but at 3pm match day you’ve got to be busting a gut out there to get anything in a game, you’ve got to be chasing down balls not in your favour, you’ve got to be shouting for everything and you’ve got to be coming off that pitch having given absolutely everything in a game. The passion and obvious disappointment in losing a game has got to be there and visible.

Absolutely couldn't have put it better

[Pedro]

The thing is this we are not even a decent watch, I can take a defeat but the manner in which we play is truly awful, sideways and back passing with little or no shots.
We didn’t even win a corner 1st half today, never mind they are top of the league crap. We were top once but it didn’t stop Morecambe having a go. There is nothing and there hasn’t been for weeks there’s zero excitement.
Our tactics seem to be try and avoid defeat anything else is a bonus. I wish I had the answers but football is very unforgiving league two in particular is brutal. I’m concerned where our next points towards safety will come from.

^This for me ^
If SC were a Gladiator he would have been fed to the lions by now.
Yes we were not entertained IW and PH as you promised we would be at the start of the season.
There are vultures moving in to roost at Holker St and the FC United training facility tonight.

That's rather insulting to Gladiators they actually had fight in them.
Clemence not up to the job the modern day Norman Bodell who managed us down the league and was removed to late and we were voted out of the league.

[Storf]

We're not on the pitch though he can't keep having these interviews and dragging us into the equation let's be honest Paul Hornby and Clemence promised entertaining football etc ,I'd settle for non stop running and some passion rather than playing 50 passes to get 10 yards, if we haven't won for 13 games what are we supposed to do ,it is a totally unacceptable position to be in and something has to give!

I just think calling for heads after a few months after the start we had isn't quite right.. something changed massively after the Chelsea game!

We were flying, looking good and comfortable..we got a lesson in football and since we have been poor!!

Exactly this..how can our form completely reverse since the Chelsea game!

[blue nige]

We were in a good position BUT majority of the goals were set pieces, now that's gone we have to create from open play so while it looked like we were flying it masked the problems we now face , if Clemence doesn't bite the bullet and go for it this weekend then sorry HE has to go !

[Wintergreen]

I think Fleetwood is now a must win game for us on Saturday if we have any hope of kick-starting our season. And Nige, l for one will be there at 3 o'clock pumped up and ready to go!
