Wow! Head coach doesn't think this was such a bad performance.

Campbell turned his ankle in training.
Don't let the old man in.

It's the silly mistakes costing us and our forwards, Newby had a great chance first half but passed it back should have hammered it towards goal ,Foley 2 guilt edged chances missed both, I didn't think Salford looked that good and I thought there wasn't much in it ,but we lack the players to take the game by the scruff of the neck and not get beaten in 50 /50 's etc.

You're right BUT this is down to the board, they appointed a guy with no track record in management!
We lost 2 quality players in Whitfield and Stockton ( I know he's wasn't ours) we at the very least had to replace them WE DIDN'T, then we went with one central midfielder short another disastrous decision, let Foley go then re- signed him , everyone could see this apart from the board!

This is it. The chances we get at 0-0 and we just can’t do it in front of goal. Then we get punished.

These players may work hard, may do everything in training but if they just don’t have the quality needed in front of goal then it’s not all Clemence is it. These players get chance after chance but if the quality is not there can it be coached? I don’t think it can and therefore a new manager would have exactly the same problems.

We have won 2 league games in the last 11. Gotta keep him as that is encouraging run of form to many on here.

The form is terrible. Clemence will take the flak. I didn’t see the game but just listened to Livesy post match and he’s said at 0-0 we look the better side but we cannot take our chances. That to me points to the players, not the coach. Are we two or three players from being a decent side or do we can another manager yet the same players get more chances

Livesey was right, their first goal was against the run of play ,Farman was at fault for both goals but as usual started to shout at everyone else!

If we had buckets of money you could change the players…..we don’t so we need someone that can play a better tune on the fiddle we have

How our forwards / midfielders aren't just magically going to start scoring? The quality just isn't there !

Watched the Carlisle v Morecambe game when it came up on sky that Morecambe had scored to see Mellish being sent off for a challenge on Tom White who did what Tom does well made the most of it that was after 62min after that Carlisle were clueless with the home crowd going crazy at Carlisle moving the ball around and going nowhere, Tom White was everywhere putting in tackles and spraying passes about, whoever decided he wasn't good enough for us this season should be up in front of the owners tomorrow.

But we have buckets of money to shed another manager/coach? That's a cracker. How would a different manager have got Newby and Foley to make more of their 3 good chances in the opening 20 minutes?

Tom White had plenty of critics on here last season, so I didn’t hear many - if any - complaints when he was released.

Either that or sign him and play him up front.

The problem about releasing Tom White is that we didn’t replaced him. If we released him and got better then no one would complain, but we released him and got no one which is very strange
