Think the wind is making this a bit of a lottery. See what we're like with the wind behind us.

First twenty minutes was solid but nothing much since. We look like we're trying too hard at times, particularly in the oppositions box.
McCormick, Grant, Leahy, Kilgour, Rodman playing well. An important timely intervention from Harries who I've been known to be a little mean to.
Upson being held up by other players making themselves available as opposed to anything wrong on his behalf.
Nicholson off the boil. Hanlan being his 2021 self.
I'd try making a change or two on the attacking front.

Just two incredibly poor teams. Well, we have 45 mins to work out which is poorer I guess.... Still think we can nick one....

Yea after one day it's all gonna be gravy - FFS Ffs sake cut the guy some slack, first game with new players... Some People Not slagging Barton off, just questioning how anybody can say that was a good half for Barton when we haven't managed a decent shot on target.

Half time 0-0. Be surprised if there`s more than one goal in this. Hope to F##k we get it.

I am shocked that the change of manager had little impact on the fortunes of our poorly constructed squad.

Ok so far but we need to be more direct with a quicker tempo when we get to their final third. We seem to get there ,take a touch - look sideways - look the other way- play it sideways - play it back - then play it forward and by then the opponent has their team shape set. Even poor sides like this will stifle yourself attacking moves if your hesitant.
We have got better width and we’re defending well. Wind our way second half UTG

A proper scrappy 1-0 off someone’s ass will do here

Ffs sake cut the guy some slack, first game with new players... Some People Not slagging Barton off, just questioning how anybody can say that was a good half for Barton when we haven't managed a decent shot on target. Didn't give our usual early goal away i guess. Not much apart from that

In truth we have not looked like scoring, wonder what JB can say to change that second half?

Put Luke alongside Grant, Upson off, Oz on and Daly for Hanlan.

I'm honestly not sure what we expect - Management changes, formation changes, team changes - I am happy not to lose. Anyone who thinks we should be higher than we are is deluded. And that is a funny thing to comment on when so many slate the team but FFS get a grip and get behind the new manager. We are in a relegation battle and the league position does not lie - We are not a good team at this time and let the manager bed in with his proven support and save us from relegation. JB is the best manager we could have hoped for but to judge him after 24 hours is just mental

Yea after one day it's all gonna be gravy - FFS So why he's having a good start, we're just playing routine football for this season, nothing upfront and our defence always looking like they've a mistake or two in them. A big half time coming up for Barton. IS there any manager on the planet that could turn this team around in 24 hours ?

Well, that was pure rubbish?
Admittedly wind hasn’t helped but .....
Shows how bad it is because ref hasn’t had one difficult decision to make!
In an individual basis they look better?
Nicholson should be given the freedom to run at them.
Otherwise long balls with Ayunga on?
One of the worst games this season?
