TBF, I agree with the sentiment, but shouldn't each and every manager be looking to win every match? And if so, I can't agree that's 'ground-breaking'! Still, I'm game for taking 3 points from the grass for the rest of the season 🤘

Interesting, when Dr Steve Peters wrote the Chimp Paradox and applied it to England FC and Liverpool FC it was widely considered as ground breaking , this from JB is pretty much in keeping with that Ethos. Whether you believe it or not I think it just goes to show JB has an intellect willing to explore every avenue to get the very last drop of improvement out of those under his charge. Clearly the game has moved on from laced up footballs and hob nail boots !

I’m all for finding every possible way to improve, sports science and psychology included, but some of his comments in that article, from a scientific point of view, are absolute drivel.

Yes, but Science rarely has any connection to Psychology. I guess it all comes down to an individuals belief and if it works for them then its real.

I’d rather he inspired people to believe in themselves with accurate information, rather than this sort of thing.

Very true, a lot of younger people are interested in how we can use our minds (not just our brains) to improve our overall performance in life. It's very popular in professional sport, and if it creates a placebo effect I'm happy to take that.

I'm a skeptic with any sort of pseudoscience, but while I cannot abide people believing these things can provide a real physiological impact in terms of healing disease and injury, I can certainly understand where someone's mindset can improve from it. Half the battle in sport and life is having a healthy mind with a positive and confident mentality, and that's the half that we've been missing this season in my view.

JB is death or glory. At least it will be an exciting 6 games.

Still, I'm game for taking 3 points from the grass for the rest of the season 🤘 For this set of players winning all the matches left this season would be ground-breaking set of results. Very few believe it’s possible right now. When we achieve it, it will be ground-breaking for this team. This team has struggled to win any match this season and so let’s see if they can turn good performance into consistent results.

Why do so many top sport’s professionals have mindset coaches? Maybe that is the difference between good players and great.

You cannot blame Barton for the poor group of players we have. We have 3 strikers none of whom are any good.Then a back line who makes mistakes and a midfield who cannot keep hold of the ball.

But he hardly set L1 alight this season with a decent budget at Fleetwood, it'll be interesting to see what he does next season with a decent budget in L2, assuming he's still in charge. At the moment he's starting to sound like a bit of a crank case to me, imagine if any of us were told to take our shoes and socks off at work in order that we could soak up the energy being omitted, or have a boss asking us to say the Lord's Pray before we clocked on for the day!

I hope he is right and we can stay in the league. I detest the guy and want him out, he talks a good game but hasn't walked the walk so far. What is it? Played 12 Won 3 Lost 8 Drawn 1 10 points in 12 games. That's about 38 points over the season. He needs to improve that very quickly (I hope he does). However he is not the mesiah, he is a very naughty boy. Not sure what the point is that you are making with the stats, wy are we forgetting we had only won 7 all season before JB.. he has inherited a side that couldn't win games, he is doing all he can to change that I'd imagine. I suppose the point is that everyone seems to be seeing him as some sort of managerial mesiah. I am pointing out that his record isn't much different to Tisdale. So why are we treating him differently?

However he is not the mesiah, he is a very naughty boy. Naughty boy or not him and his staff are good for BRFC he’s what this club has needed for a long time. A kick up the ass is what this club has needed. I don't really agree. I think this club needs a 5 year strategy to get the infrastructure ducks in a row. Until that has been done we will league one, league two. I don't think him and his team has done much more than Tisdale. Today, we sat back on a lead as we did under the Ben Garner times. Was a tactical error that cost us 3 pts.
