Barrow never put any pressure on the ball whatsoever

I bet they will when they play us 🤦‍♂️

I was saying weeks ago, before the January Window that the likes of Salford and FGR would buy their way our of trouble. Salford have now shot well away from us, and FGR got an ominously good result this week.

Just relying on FGR and Sutton to self destruct will not save us.

We need to start winning home games. Especially the next two.

The thing is that we are supporters right?  When we go a goal or two down do you think that booing and shouting abuse at them is going to help, no it isn't.  We need to 'support' the team by being more vociferous, encouraging them to get us back in the game.

That's all well and good in a eutopian world, but football is emotive, and if players are making obvious mistakes, and we keep letting in soft goals the default emotion is frustration and annoyance, so of course the majority will show their disapproval with their voices.

Think Shaun called it right in his interview the players actions on the pitch reflect the mood of the crowd.

Though toxicity isn’t good when you look at some of the goals we concede ineptitude is equally unnecessary.

If your posting on here is a yardstick I'd love to have you wired up during a game bear.I bet your claws were well and truly bared after 25 mins last home game? We all want to support and encourage but 0-3 and playing shite is a hard ask.

Like it or not, whether it’s right or not, football supporters use matches to let out emotions/frustrations etc they can’t at work or home. Always been the case and always will be. Football has never been the case when everyone sings and dances off the same page.

Regarding atmosphere..works both ways..team have to give crowd something to go off to get a reaction. If it’s nervy, that spreads to the fan base..as we’ve seen regularly. And vice versa.

Isn’t/Won’t be the fans fault why we’re struggling. In fact you could argue the numbers still attending are very, very good- bearing in mind what they’re paying to watch and in comparison to last two or three decades.

You're not wrong - there's going to be around 7000 of us hardy souls at BP watching two of the worst sides in the league - some going is that.

Last week as soon as we started to create a couple of chances straight after half time the crowd was behind them it only needs a bit of attacking momentum
