I may as well add my' ten penneth'

I thought it was going out and he could have helped it out but decided to play it in and to one of their players.......

It was practically a carbon copy of the goal at Altrincham.


Batch, K.Moore, Waters, Wiggington, Crombie, Brolly, Ford, Drinkell, Mitchell, Cumming, Kilmore. D.Moore, Stone, Liddell. ....1979/80..... now that WAS a team.

McKeowns gotta go for it, he gets what he can on the ball. Its the the defenders who need to win the second ball. No one near either Macc player when it drops. Not McKeown's fault. But get him some back pass training FFS.

Not sure Warington has helped Macca's game remember Macca being over the moon about having a proper keeping coach but I don't see any improvement at all to be honest.

Some people have short memories.

McKeown has been one of Town's best performers since he arrived and widely regarded as the best 'keeper in the league during that time. He has rescued many points for Town over the last few years.

Is he perfect?......no....does he have flaws?...of course he has. He has made a couple of errors that have resulted in goals I'm not sure if that's connected to his illness over the summer or if he is just out of sorts at  the moment. I think he would agree himself that he has not been at his best so far....but i think its a bit premature to write him off and demand a replacement. You dont suddenly go from being a good player to a bad one overnight.

I think what he has given to this club and his loyalty to the club deserves a bit more loyalty from the fans right now.

Whether the club should have another capable 'keeper on the books to challenge Macca is another question i suppose

This!!! It's like we have the most bi polar support in football... Macca s a hero, Macca is our best player, replace him... Hurst s a good manager, Hurst s gonna get us promoted, Hursts a waste of space... Time and time again we go through this roller coaster of posts on social sites and here about how good the support is for the club and yet it's not support is it.... You have a friend having a hard time you don't berate them and tell them they re excrement, you support them, and it's the same with a football club.,. Hurst always refers to the home crowds and the pressure it puts on players, which is a good thing but also a bad thing....the fact is performing under pressure, negativity and boo s is not easy in any job, let alone professional football... And yes people may say they re pros they should rise to it etc, but I m willing to bet if we didn't go through this cloud of negativity everytime there's a bad patch the whole thing would be much easier.

Whatever you want to post on here, you know hurst won't be sacked and you know that in fact a new manager would screw things up , look at the evidence. It's simple to say but positivity breeds positivity - some may say it was all positive from the fans at the beginning of the season, but if we want consistency from players, why not show them some consistent support.

They get our support and it's them that need consistency, not us. I can't recall any booing this season.

I'd also like to know how you can make a statement that a new manager would screw things up and we know that?

Ok Ginny what difference did graham Rodger, stu Watkiss, Alan Buckley, stu Watkiss, mike newell and Neil woods make??

That's six managers, in 9 years.... That's what you call evidence, and it seems to be fairly unfavourable to your argument.

Your reply will probably be...
But then it shouldn't be John Fenty choosing them, cos it's all his fault...

Also you could have heard a pin drop at the ground on Monday it was that quiet... Also how can you call yourself a supporter of a club and then create a them and us!!! That's a bit wierd

I am not saying that we need to replace Macca permanently, I hope he can regain his confidence and form. I am merely asking that we bring in an experienced keeper on loan for a month or so.

Oh... Yeah great plan, drop him and damage his confidence even more, then in four weeks time pop him back in the firing line, wait for him to make a mistake and get on his back again... Is this  straight out of the book on good man management??
