Barrow v Fleetwood Town match thread

[Jonty]

Look at the starting line up today. Think only three from last season’s regular first 11 started. It’s never going to be easy with such wholesale changes and that’s why recruitment this summer was always going to be absolutely crucial. Unfortunately you can’t tell until you start playing games quite how things will turn out, but it’s clear right now we are not gelling or improving as a team. I tracked the game via Flashscore and even before the sending off it looked like we were second best in all the match stats you look for that would indicate a bright start.

That ones on Whing, why he continually plays that system is beyond me. Barky is probably one of the best wingers in the league. Wasted in a shit formation. Raglan is absolutely pish

Nail on the head. The one is on whing but the players too need a rocket up the bum hole.. no where near the second balls, no desire or fight.. pish poor especially at home. Wake up please

[bluessupporter]

whole set up ran by enthusiastic ammeters .

not sure if that is a positive or negative statement

[Jim]

First half pretty awful. Second half showed a bit more resolve, got forward a bit more and didn't rely so much on the long ball, defended well on the whole. I would be worried if we still look like this after 15 games, but at the moment Whing doesn't have a lot of options. Too early to write off individual players as poor signings but I suppose it's inevitable after a poor start to the season. I have high hopes of Fletcher when he is fit and Harper will bring some aggression to midfield.

If nobody can work that out we have problems on the terraces too

[blumooncrab]

Without a competent defence you have no chance. It was obvious that we needed to strengthen at the back with some pace , resolution and skill. We haven’t. Elsewhere the players who have come in are not fit - Smith apart - but he’s hardly pulling up trees.

The board need to take a good luck at the last 15 months. It’s been managed very badly . You reap what you sow. Oh for a Pete Wild fist pump at the Holker End. Yeah, a proper mess .

[Bingo]

We set up so negative, no structure at the club no ambition the whole set up ran by enthusiastic ammeters

It’s the little Barrow mentality we have slipped back to- we set up like we are playing Liverpool in a FA cup tie. Just have a [SwearFilter] go.

Paying good money no doubt to some good players but something is not right.

Even without the sending off we would still not have won that game we don’t have it in is - there is nothing and nobody to fear in league 2 but we set up terrified.

Bingo...will you [SwearFilter] off with the little ol' barrow shite.. please

Negativity breeds like cancer, if we all don't change the attitude we may as well just stay at home.. ffs

[SwearFilter] off yourself I’m saying the club has that attitude I don’t the whole set up is really poor and negetive

[BarrowLad71]

Poor again , game was killed with Canavans stupid foul.

After that it was the usual hope to not concede and we couldn’t do that so the game was over.

Going to be a long inconsistent season

I think you've miss the point of Jim's comment - perhaps you should be charged with misunderstanding!

Come on lads, you’re on a public forum on the internet, let’s not take frustrations out on each other.

[JamesWattTerrace24]

Not a time to over analyse tactics, the red card ruined the game … pure stupidity from Canavan.

[_bluebird_]

I just do not think this system is the way to go, we need to go to a back 4 as you can see one switched ball over the top and canavan is isolated then hes forced to make a challenge or trust Stanway, midfield may aswell just not play as they're as effective as a fart in a wind tunnel and our wingers dont get the ball enough to cause issues or get crowded out with no support.... its a mess and it absolutely needs addressing, no one out there looks comfortable in their positions.

Backed ourselves in to a system by not having a right back at the club

Get a grip ya buffoon.. out owners have been excellent and a role model for clubs far higher than us, we should be grateful for their efforts

The club doesn't have that attitude at all.. it's people like yourself who consistently try to bring it all down!

Saying that, if only the players could look at your consistency and maybe learn how to be a repetitive pain in the arse and start winning games!

Sorry bongo, but your negativity is beginning to grate my [SwearFilter]

All entitled to opinions without being personal.

I’m not negative at all - I constantly complain about the negetivity of the people. That’s why we didn’t get to the play offs with Wild and why we are struggling now the town and the team are negative . Read my posts. Try telling the manager to play the game positivity. Please don’t reply if you are going to call me names.

As for the owners they have done great but if they walked tomorrow where would be club be no where near sustainability than it was at the begining of their tenure. I’ll leave it at that.

Unfortunately we all get frustrated and angry, it's called passion.. I get over heated as do others so I do apologise (yes folks I can do it) but it does boil my [SwearFilter] the constant negativity, I get it I really do..

Today it falls on whing and the players, some decisions are questionable, the players attitude are questionable and that falls on one man and that's the manager! [SwearFilter] the coach bolicks, whing is our manager..(old skool)
So I'm sorry if I've offended you or anyone else, I wear my heart on my sleeve and that's what I expect the players to do too.
