It’s All We’ve Got.

[Bombadel]

Players react differently in the moment, Quigley scored against us for Rochdale and laughed at the travelling away fans, then in the interview afterwards said how much he cared for the club (or some sh*t like that).
Genuinely don’t think Harper is one of our worse players he holds the ball well, to some extent he can control the midfield, it’s the pace on the wings from other teams which have done us in (imo).
At least Sam Foley has worked under the likes of Rob Kelly and many other managers, hopefully some of that has rubbed off on him.

This Barrow team is certainly hard to take.
At home we don't seem to ever set up to get at teams.
We want to sit back and counter attack teams.
That might be a good tactic away, but surely at home give the fans something to shout about.
I heard Neil Chalker on the Barrow Social saying the talk before the game was will we score, not will we win.
No wonder the crowds are dropping.
Since the 18th October, in the 12 home games played, we have only won twice (1 an EFL trophy game) and drawn twice not scoring in half the matches (4 of which have been in the last 5 matches).
In the same period away, we have amazingly scored in every one of the last 14 league and cup games, scoring 23 goals against 27 conceded.
In fact we have only failed to hit the net in 4 of the 21 trips away.
If our home form had been half decent, we'd be sitting pretty now.
Come on Sam, get the lads really giving it a go for the rest of the season.

Yes, we’re crap. We can spend all day digging out stats on how bad we are, dwell on it and spew out constant negativity or draw a line and give it a right go at keeping the club in the FL, starting from Saturday.

My motivation speech this should be said in changing rooms do basics show heart and play for each other.

Listen up, everyone.

Right now, people look at the table and they see us near the bottom. They see the losses. They see the doubt. But what they don’t see is what’s inside this room.

They don’t see the hours you’ve trained.
They don’t see the tackles you’ve fought through.
They don’t see the heart you bring every single day.

Being at the bottom doesn’t define you. How you respond does.

Every great comeback in football started exactly where we are right now — with a team that refused to give up. A team that decided that the next 90 minutes would be different.

When we walk onto that pitch today, forget the table. Forget the critics. Forget the last game.

Play for the badge.
Play for the teammate next to you.
Play like this is the moment everything turns around.

Win the first tackle.
Win the first header.
Win the first 50–50 ball.

Because momentum starts with one action, then another, and another. Suddenly the crowd believes. Suddenly the other team feels the pressure. Suddenly the game changes.

Look around this room. These are your brothers. When one of you runs, we all run. When one of you fights, we all fight.

Today isn’t about where we are in the league.

It’s about showing everyone who we really are.

Now get out there, give everything for those 90 minutes, and make them remember one thing:

This team never quits.
UP THE BLUEBIRDS

Brilliant! You've got the job, when the next one is sacked!

Ian A's post is on the mark.
Yes we are poor, but with support we can have a crack at surviving.
Turn up against Accrington and do your bit as supporters.
Leave the accusations/recriminations/blame to another time.
There are 12 games to go.
We have had a minor reset, and people we know and trust are in charge.
Yes objectively it looks ridiculous, but as supporters let's at least try and make it work.
12 games to go.
Baying for people's heads prematurely almost giving up. Leave it until May if necessary.
Repeat - 12 games to go

This needs saying to the squad, not the fans

[Rushy]

How can anyone support a team of players who have conspired to get rid of managers all season. They are an absolute disgrace .
If they suddenly start playing and keep us up that is all the proof you need that they are a bunch of tossers who have robbed us of all the travelling and ticket money all season.
I hope they keep us up then get boo,d off the pitch never to be seen again at Holker Street . Every last one of em.
Get out of our club.

Sincerely hope neither of you two will be anywhere near the ground on Saturday then

Is Big John Shamalo available?

Seriously? Minor reset?

It’s all about LEADERSHIP we’re not privy to what’s been going on behind the scenes only what we see on the pitch.

Sam Foley knows the place inside out he knows the mentality of our squad and their capabilities.

He has integrity, he is the consummate professional and very much a decent person.

Angry, depressed, so sick of everything this season has thrown up but no matter what all we can do is get behind Sam and our club and if we do go down let’s go down TOGETHER with pride.

Come on Sam I believe we can do it.

[WalneyOne]

To me the issue with players is too many are playing purely for their stats ( x number of completed passes etc) and not for the team.
11 individuals doesnt make a team and I hope Sam can drive that point home.
Take risks, be brave both on the ball and in the tackle and see where that takes us.

"Come on Sam I believe we can do it.".....................................................................................Agree, I very much think we can do it under Sam.

I mean, eleven games remain, it's not as if there is only five games left and they are being asked to put a run of four games together - something they haven't done all season.

I think that under the correct guidance, which we all hope Sam can produce, they can collect four wins and, anything else is a bonus so to speak.

Braver and less idle - under Sam the Man, and Wozza.
