    In a sense it's true, but I'm not buying it as an excuse.

    "Individual errors" has been a go-to quote for many managers under pressure over the years. Most goals come from individual errors if you...

    We still looked a lot worse after he went off. McGoldrick was less effective by some way.

    I like what I've seen so far. The lay-off assist and the poacher's goal at Accrington, and then the back...

    Can't remember if I mentioned him in this or another thread, but surely yes.

    Currently unemployed because of some sort of brain fart by Accrington's present leadership, but what a phenomenal job...

    Too young to remember that team, but I was growing up in the era of Short and Yates as our centre-halves, and they could defend (and play) too.

    Definitely the best advice if you or those around you are sensitive to the criticism. To be honest I can think of nothing more demeaning than giving undue credence to someone else's opinion of you...

    I wrote my comments last night and this morning without having seen your post above, but we've seen exactly the same thing.

    If Stuart Maynard can't get simple calls like that right, then there's...

    Yep, Austin was culpable too - no excuses for him - but Cameron's role as a defender is to get his teammate out of trouble when something like that happens. Most of the time when defenders have to...

    There have been a few recruitment decisions in recent times that haven't worked, but you will get that at any club. Pretty much ALL our signings were like that under previous regimes!

    Yes I have to say, yesterday was the deciding factor in terms of making up my mind about Stuart Maynard.

    I'm certainly not seeking to scapegoat Kyle Cameron and yes, you have to acknowledge his role in last season's success, which was considerable, particularly in terms of his ability on the ball.

    I have to say, Cameron's defensive performance, especially for a team captain, was woeful. He faced a "must win" challenge to prevent that first goal and made the most pathetic attempt I've ever...

    Today's team set up, as much as the obvious factor of previous results, has tipped the balance in my mind. I sorry to say it, but I don't think Stuart Maynard has the clarity of vision or sufficient...

    At least we don't need to spend too long working out where the strengthening needs to be.
