    Look on the bright side.

    At least our Christmas games were postponed so these *@?$ couldn't ruin it.

    Just wish the Management showed the same aspirations as its' great fan base and more of the same is totally unacceptable.

    Fair play in that case.
    Spot on. Cba right now. Need a new owner so desperately. Id take the crypto geeks just for something different. Get Rupp, Sparks and Adams out and start again. We need direction and purpose again but there’s no leader to be seen around the club.

    I really wish Gary Jones was involved in some capacity. He wouldn’t stand for passengers in his side.

    What about getting a price for a fly bye @JonButterfield@JonButterfield I've tried to be positive with regards our season but that had to rank along side the poorest performances for a while, maybe if Rupp realises the fans are not falling for his BS statements he may take OUR club seriously.
    " As a proud custodian of this wonderful football club, my first and most important responsibility is to protect it and safeguard its long-term future, while upholding our values" well our values slip with every week that goes by.

    Summed it all up half way through the second half when one of our players went to the bye line for a drink of water and Adams didn’t even try any encouragement or advice to him, gutted for this club.

    Shirley.........:) Jones can carry on his social work as its not doing my mental health any good. I loved his statement that you can play not very well but you should still compete and run about..total legend.

    This season is mirroring last season in lots of ways
    Get rid of Robbie Burns and put Trueman back in to halt the slide
    Anyone try and tell me it will be worse

    Gary Jones showed more passion and commitment on the radio than them wage thief's did on the pitch. Gary Jones for manager. He's magic you know.

    I have found a positive ,,..... Darlo won 6 .1 without the striker we are after... so they dont need him......I am sure we can ruin his career too

    Vernam’s just thrown a “we go again next week” in.

    Anybody have that in the interview bingo?

    I'm not interested what Adams says in his post match interview, surely he cant try and convinced us fans there are any positives he can take with regards todays gutless performance.

    I saw one 50/50 that Cooke bottled. That aside, I don't think a lack of passion or commitment was the main issue. I think its too easy and dismissive to put performances like todays down to a lack of effort. The stark truth is, we lack quality. In too many areas. Hornby, Keller, Threlkeld - none are anywhere near good enough for a side that wants to succeed at this level. Paudie isn't far behind. Watt flatters to deceive and may have had his head turned. Songo'o isn't mobile enough to be an enforcer. The wide men don't offer enough, our approach play is over played, so we're easy to play against and the front 2 are injured more than they're fit.

    There's just too much dross in this squad.
