Playing for the draw again?

[Iron-awe]

Bit risky playing McGahey would have thought, no proper run out prior to today after a hamstring injury, hope we haven’t started him too soon.

[Northumbiron]

Onariase on bench if required, but agree. All fingers and toes crossed.

Hope we’ve been practicing set pieces, as I can’t see us getting a goal from open play with that lineup.

Our set plays have been woeful all season, so unlikely.

I’ll let you know after 10 mins.

[cassidystash]

Be surprised if it takes that long, no shots in the first 10 minutes is almost a cert.

[Ferrite]

Has anyone, on either side, completed a pass yet?

[Random]

Does anyone even know what our game plan is they just seemed to be kicking it as hard as they can all the time. Whats the point in having wingers we dont use them

Yep, here for a point.

[RoamingBull]

Playing one up front is awful.

We just look a bunch of headless chickens get the ball boot.

[MightyIron]

How many times do we lose possession with that forward punt to Loft

[BigLeftToe]

This team really have no idea what they’re doing, it’s so difficult to watch.

[DarrynStampGoalMachine]

This is awful. Absolutely no attempt to support Loft. Just lump it forward somewhere near him and hope he can fight off all 4 defenders and do something?

Pathetic.

[RoamingBull]

We get the ball in midfield and you can see whoever has it thinking now what

[Ironawe]

Cox really is clueless as are most of this squad.

We are just waiting to concede – sitting deep after 10 minutes

[Anonymous]

As poor as the players are the game plan from Cox is appalling. I do think that Cox is part of the issue, but he is an inexperienced manager with an inexperienced squad.

[Ironic]

30 minutes in and not even a shot never mind one on target. Woeful

[Iron-awe]

Barrow commentators seem to have got it right, ” neither team look as if they want to win and have set up accordingly “.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

No game plan to go out and win this game and again an opposition keeper goes all half without anything meaningful to do.

We want to get used to be playing at grounds like that.

[Random]

Id swap karacen or spence for mcatee, both do the same job and neither seems to be able to play a pass forward, our theough balls are coming from the defenders :-(

[MightyIron]

What striker would want to come and play with this team, they’d be lucky to get any chances let alone goals.

[Heath]

The half time stats on ifollow tell all. Iron 56% possession, all other stats zero!! They need to add a stat for aimlessly kicking the ball to nobody!

[Ironawe]

Spence has zero creativity and is a poor mans karacan – no need for him to be on the pitch, don’t need to single out the players because they’re all pretty bad

[iron64]

we forget we are playing an excellent side and need to adjust to nullify them. Cox will so pleased not to concede to a side below us

[RoamingBull]

Cox trying to injure our CB’s

[BigLeftToe]

Maybe it was planned they’d play a half each?

Agree with the above in that there’s no need to have both Spence and Karacan on the same pitch. Replace one of them with McAtee or Eisa and throw them up close to Loft.

[Random]

If this stays 1-0 barrow. Cox shud be sacked he not even trying to win any games

[vader]

WOEFULL

Time for Cox to go I’m afraid.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

This is a fucking embarrassment.
Sleepwalking into non league and no one gives a shit
