Rebuild? Seen today's selection? The Barton lottery has spun out one of our better lineup ups today. good to see Coutts back in. |

The wait is over! It’s coming folks. An away win. Barrow a - should get something EMPEROR SUPERBUS WAS RIGHT Crawley relegation candidates h - we will win EMPEROR SUPERBUS WAS RIGHT Pool a - toughie, but why not a draw EMPEROR SUPERBUS WAS a little bit wrong Orient h - covid victims Harrogate went there and won, so a home win EMPEROR SUPERBUS bit more than a little bit wrong Walsall relegation candidates a - we will win Swindon h - doesn’t bear thinking about losing, there will be loads of aggression to Ben and lots of pro Barton support in this noisy derby fixture, I predict win Carlisle a - why not at least point Let the facts speak for themselves. Let’s get this sequence of difficult tricky games out the way. And then LET THE FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES 5 unbeaten in 7 with 11 points from 21 will be respectable for a team still gelling waiting to click, can’t argue with that. CAN’T SACK A MANAGER WITH THAT RECORD Can you! Took Bolton a long time to click last season, go look what happened. Bolton had been in administration and had been playing with their youth team so no comparison there. Wrong, they had brought players in, but took time to gel. Took half a season they still romped it. |

Walsall 1 Rovers 0.
Kilgour apparently "half won the challenge".

Don’t be daft. He’s been given complete control over the rebuild. And it wasn’t as cheap as first glance, even a couple of weeks ago Barrett’s got acceptable offer from club so boss can bung some lolly at the oldies he need. And then a couple of weeks later it’s sane for owner to sack him? He is safe till February. All the pre season pundits never get it this wrong, it’s just such massive turnover needs time to bed in, everyone except some impatient fans suspect we will be up there end of season. Don’t forget some fans didn’t like manager from day 1, were never prepared to give him a chance, never gave his rebuild any patience. Can't really see that. Whatever goes on,a club has to pick up a few points. We're seriously struggling on that basic requirement. GC turned things around pretty quickly. JB expected to be at least mid table by now,he has admitted that so far he has failed. I hope there can be real improvement over the next two games or real signs JB is on to something. That brings us to the nub of why you and all the other Barton outers are wrong, is because Garner went too soon? Why did he go too soon, because all you boo boys added his previous season with someone else’s squad onto the argument. You can’t sack Barton for last season now with someone else’s squad so very early into this season, it’s just not learning from mistakes. You can’t add last season onto the start of this season when you assess how it’s going, a line has been drawn, the squad changed. For example, if Garner had been appointed in the summer, would he have been sacked that quickly with those points on board from tough run of fixtures. Would anyone have even been calling for it. ive learnt the lesson, line is drawn between seasons and squad changes. You all need to learn it. How about the argument, the board gave him complete control to fire sale an entire squad and replace it with his own, even as recent as two weeks ago - how does it look for them, what do they say into microphones, what flack do they get if Barton sacked by them so soon into this season. Hence they back him much longer than this. And the argument it’s Barton’s squad, whose best to get it purring now, him or someone else? So sack Barton means another squad change and rebuild, that is quite a huge decision so early into a season isn’t it. |

With only 33 of us online with just over 2 hours to kick for me sums up how f###ed off we all are. Walsall a game we would usually attend but spending @ £150 to watch us lose to another s##e 4th division side is no more an option. Joey has talked the talk but not walked the walk. So how I see it, HIS TEAM today must deliver a performance worthy of the shirt ,No excuses, No bemoaning bad luck, No blaming the officials Get the job done today, the natives are revolting and Welcome to Hell next week is not an understatement .................... |

Wrong, they had brought players in, but took time to gel. Took half a season they still romped it. They didn't have Barton though. That bits true, I concede. There’s a lot of out of work managers out there with better records than Joey, lots of young guys like Gareth Taylor, Marcus Stewart who can go on to be great managers (if board bloods them with some experienced minder). There is nothing Joey has done at either Fleetwood or Rovers that justifies keep getting chances ahead of others. Even as a player, he had such a destructive streak to him it was hardly odds on he’d be a managerial great. But some sides do click halfway through season and have good second half’s, if recruitment, coaching, manager decisions good, I’m right on that. |

Valid post, but so far this season not seen much in the way of tactics or shape of team. Despite the disappointment and frustration he persists with back three, not try 4 4 2 or other back four formation. The back 3 is weak defensively, 3 defenders instead of 4, it’s a narrow defensive line with gaps at the side Exeter and I’m sure other sides are hoping we play it to exploit it. It depends on team relationship to cover the unmarked ground. switch out 3 Cb for 2 cb and 2 fb is more solid, and you can even use fb as overlap or under lap in offence you can’t with 3 CB. Also there is the suspicion Joey is slow to change things in games when it’s not working. |
