Seems a lot want to know why the ‘Barton In’ thread was locked and by whom? I think it was locked to stop a pointless copy-cat thread (ie why not discuss keeping him in this thread, as there are loads of people discussing keeping him in this thread already) but we opened it again anyway. Then the title should read in or out not just out don't you think???

They didn't have to prepare for a midweek game, so 3 days gave enough time for Joey to work with them on the training ground, outside of match preparation. Flogging a dead horse doesn't bring improvement. What 3 days? Trained Tuesday. Light session Thursday morning before travelling to Ipswich Thursday afternoon. Good point - I'm easily confused, and thought today was Saturday!

Yep, there it is - first official thread calling for his head. Terrible appointment - one season wonder. Done nothing but moan and slate everyone. Somehow, against all the odds, has made us worse!!!! Had a week on the training ground this week and he's lowered the standard of the players by another 3 to 4 divisions. Put and end to this madness. BARTON OUT! Edit: Perhaps silly to assume we spent it training actually. Maybe we were watching more YouTube montages or getting psychologists in to... make us worse. Barton gave them Monday and Wednesday off training. Unbelievable but true. Perhaps he was busy talking to PNE.

Then the title should read in or out not just out don't you think??? Someone posted a thread about Barton Out and other people joined in the discussion, some of whom agreed with it and some disagreed. We're loathe to change thread titles unless they are severely misleading or contain awful typos. Imagine if someone posted a thread saying they think we'll win 3-0, should someone start a brand new thread saying it will be 3-1? I realise the subject is emotive and it feels like there are just two sides and you're either for him or against him, but even so it's possible for both camps to discuss stuff in the same thread. Not sure it necessarily needs two threads, otherwise there will be no discussion, just a thread full of 'in' and a thread full of 'out.' But actually some disagreed and the thread was reopened, and there was loads of pro-Barton posts on the Barton Out thread in any case so don't really see the big problem.

Rover drive ...
I don’t think there is a manager out there who could improve this squad .. they are a woeful group brought together by incompetents.
Easy to have the existing manager as a scapegoat but of the names available to us not one could have improved much.
Out of interest ... if a neighbours dog craps in your garden would you blame your dog ? There is crap in the garden must be your dogs fault surely?
Posting mid way through a game that the one hope of keeping us up should be sacked ... the third in a season is nonsense.

Truth is neither Hanlon or Ayunga are good enough at this level. Ayunga dithers and Hanlon falls over like he has one leg longer than the other.

Not sure about Barton going but I sure as hell know most of this squad can go. Been an absolute embarassment all season.

When you are left with the remnants of cone boys powderpuff squad there is only one way to go out of this division. Pity any manager trying to make them into a team

I locked your thread, it was an in the heat of the moment decision based on the fact that this kind of discussion was already being had in this thread and we didn’t really want loads of duplicate Barton threads. I unlocked it about 15 or so minutes after when I realised it probably looked bad that a Barton out thread was unlocked and a Barton in thread was locked, that wasn’t really the intention at all. We welcome the input of people who hold both views. So my apologies.

I think he’ll get us back up next season. In the very unlikely event that we stay up I think he’d build a side that’s at least not in a relegation scrap in league 1 next season. If we sack him who can we get that is better ? Also sacking managers every few months will only see us relegated to the conference. We got Barton in and he needs at least one transfer window and half a season to show what he can do. We gave Garner that and more.

No manager can magically turn poor players into good players overnight and many of our current squad will probably never be good enough.
Add to that the lengthening list of injurues to key players - Kilgour, Ehmer, Harries, Rodman, Grant, Nicholson - and some poor refereeing decisions and it's little wonder we're struggling.
Despite all that we've been dominant or competitive in every game since Barton took charge. Luck has definitely not been on our side.
Many fans wanted Paul Cook but his record since taking over a decent Ipswich side is not really any better.
Any talk of getting rid of Barton before at least 15 matches into next season is far too premature in my opinion.

7 (seven) points from a possible 33 (thirty three)...I suggest anyone who posts on this forum would do at least as well and I’d be surprised if the majority wouldn’t do better. Sometimes you just have to accept if it has a tail and it barks , it’s a dog. Time to cut our loses and I expect JB to be relieved of his responsibilities before we play another game.

Cook has 1.14 ppg versus JB 0.63 ppg
