Or a void NL

What makes people think the national league is going to be voided?.
it aint going to happen.

it won't but thr argument would be how would the national league work with no relegation? the teams at the bottom would have no incentive to win or lose near the end of the season..

I agree with you.

Kelly was Dunn’s mate he has no ties to Jolly so it may be different now

That wasn’t the managers fault it was criminal from our defence. But the way we have set ourselves up to play the game from the offset is clearly the managers fault and simply isn’t good enough and leaves us in a very precarious position going forward!!

Manager should have been on the teams back immediately we scored organising, making sure every one their job . Not stood arms folded silent watching it all unfold in front of him as he seems to do all game !.

Michael Jolley should be criminally charged with false and misleading Statements that he is a Football Manager.

Something must work eventually!

Let's face it, he's a desperate manager without a clue.

Also a questionable character who was never going to help us build the right mentality for a relegation struggle. Just look at his treatment of top pros like Jason Taylor, Hird and Brown. A poor appointment.

Can't believe how many poor passes i saw today. Some couldn't even pass to a player right next yo them. Few at the back were utter shocking ! Wheres this new striker ? We had about 6 crosses in thr box and not 1 forward taking a chance

How do we actually set up, what is it we are actually trying to achieve? Two full backs at right/left midfield, we play Donohue who is a left back at centre mid who looks absolutely clueless. We play route one football with Quigley up top who’s never won a header in his life. Fair enough if we are going to play route one football then why didn’t we sign a target man to hit? Thought Dunn didn’t know what he was doing but crikey Jolley is just making it up as he goes along absolute fraud

And thats what happens when you have someone in charge who has never played the game. I have no clue what has happened to our players under the management of Dunn and now Jolley but what I do know is, we have got progressively worse as this season has gone on. I just cannot see any positives to cling on to at present.

Thats my last tenner until this team starts showing up and starts playing like a team. Forum for updates it will be now going forwards.

I’m like you it’s torn my heart to shreds watching this season unfold. It unfortunately falls on the shoulders of a board of directors that know absolutely zilch about football. I thought Dunn was a joke and couldn’t believe they would appoint some fraud like Jolley.

My codes have gone unredeemed for a couple of weeks now.

Fifteen hundred defenders and we can’t defend.

Hard to criticise some more than others....but Banks, what does he do? Donohue, should never put on a Barrow shirt again. Many many more as well that haven’t improved the team in any way whatsoever. And to think MJ has dropped better players to bring some of this shite in..!

I’m afraid the club have been sold a story by MJ during the interview process and they’ve swallowed it hook line and sinker. Having no one at the club with a proper football background to give advice when interviewing definitely hasn’t helped.

I thought our chances of staying up would hinge on today's performance - I guess that's the answer.

Apart from five minutes where we actually looked like we could play, that was as awful as that 6-0 defeat (Gainsborough?) in the Conference North. Eardley and Donohue I'm not convinced they weren't drunk, Barry may as well have not bothered coming back from injury, Quigley couldn't kick the ball half the time - his goal keeps him in the line-up for another month - Devitt was weak as [SwearFilter], Banks thinks he's Pirlo but has hardly found a man with a pass, Davies, Jones and Brough only serve to show how much we miss Platt. Dixon, you're alright.

Donohue and Banks both looked good signings on paper, both have been dreadful
Devitt, Davies are obviously decent players but we are playing them to get fit, neither have had much game time this season and its showing massively
Even Eardley had a shocker today
Needed a dogs of war mentality and instead we are just drifting along allowing teams the freedom of furness to pick a pass, a shot, whatever they want
