    Need to be better

    Okay Mr New boss you get away with that performance cause it was your first game but if we keep playing like that we will be relegated .Hear what you say about retaining the ball but you need to have good players and confident ones at the back to do that we don't . We need to get the ball up the park a lot quicker ,what we did learn today is that you weren't afraid to change it at half time also you put on young Thomas for the last five this boy showed in that five minutes some lovely touches hope to see more of him . Hope your contacts are all in place for the transfer window opening that's when we will see what your all about ,I suppose today was all about the result not the performance so on that note well done

    To be fair I think the new manager will realise there are quite a few who need moved on if he wants the style of play he tried today. The biggest part of today was trying to keep possession instead of McManus and O'Brien

    Give Ian Barraclough a chance. He's been in the job about a week and has only taken about 4 training sessions. Some strange personnel decisions today but he'll have been relying heavily on Kenny Black's advice. As time wears on he'll be able to see for himself and make his own decisions.

    I aint complaining was quite happy with his selection and subs. The performance was p1sh but managers first target is to start getting points no matter how its achieved. Id like to think he realises Vigurs is sh1te and dropped him but I suspect it was an injury.

    Both Vigurs and ZFA were injured (as were Hammell, Lawson, Leitch and Moore).

    You'e right though the result was the important thing. 3 points are 3 points.

    Agree not the best performance,but think we are the only premier league team who hasn't managed to put the same starting eleven out two matches in a row,which in itself creates problems in the team.But the three points were ***** and would gladly accept the same result for us in our next couple of games.Dont think manager will accept any excuses or poor performances.

    TChrist sake it's still the same shower of £hite that was there before cant really expect miracles this team hasn't even looked fit all season so a one nil win is fine by me.

    End of the day this isn't his team no players he has brought in so way I see it 100% record.

    It will be amazing alone to get fitness levels up!Effort was good at least.
