    Stick.

    We've "happy clapped" the sacking of multiple managers since we were 4th in League One and we're now 24th in League Two. Go figure!

    Effort is no good if you can't put the ball in the net.You don't get 3 pts for not scoring

    Stick

    The damage was done a long time ago.

    At some point people need to realise that 39 times this season 11 players have crossed the white line and have delivered a winning result only 7 times under three different managers. They are ultimately responsible.

    We had four attacking players up front on the pitch today, and arguably our best 11 out there. There is nothing more the manager could have done to give them a better chance of winning the game. The players failed and let their manager and the fans all down.

    Which is down to the players, as others have pointed out changing a manager does nothing, the problems are deeper. We haven’t got a pot to piss in and the wages are due on thursday, who if anyone would come into this. We have to stick what we have, it’s not Football Manager where it’s a game, it’s real life and unfortunately we have what we have and need to do the best with the resources we have.

    Apparently, Biggus Allus got a load of abuse from the fans as he made his way back to his car. Or so it says on faceache. I wasn't even aware he attended games anymore???

    I witnessed that, totally unacceptable from foul mouthed morons, that really helped.

    Thats the problem.The Chairman thought he was playing Football Manager.If the players aren't carrying out orders pull them off,drop them,give the kids a go.More worrying is the players then not listening to the manager.Has he lost it?

    Which is correct and can’t really be debated. I just think that the manager (whoever it is) can only go so far. He can’t legislate for players missing one on ones, or not getting stuck in or winning second balls, playing the right pass, losing possession in the final third from mistakes or sloppy passes. The hunger, fight passion and desire has to come from the individual players themselves. That’s the mental side of the game. You can have the best players in the world but if they are not mentally sharp or strong they won’t win football matches.

    Sports Psychologists need to pay a visit to Meadow Lane quickly to get the players heads in the right place for the remaining seven games.
