You what? Kudos for trying? Wow. But you are right in principle of course, if we concede less and score more will definitely win games 🥸 Take today. Hit the bar / post twice. Score them and we’d have taken the game. As many have been saying story of the season. But you won’t let that one sink in because you’re on a downer again. Must be disappointed we stayed up and had a season of consolidation. revels in misery. |

Well what has he done in the transfer market to date for you to believe we won't improve? Turn that on its head, it should be easy. For EG 1. Don't sign players that are injured, to a degree that our first choice team is not available until two months of the season has elapsed 2. Don't sign players who have a record of not lasting a season through recurrent Injury issues. 3. Sign players that have the ability to play to his team set up and tactics OR change both. If we had a top 6 budget it's probably easy to tick all those boxes although even Derby have messed up this season, with a mid table budget JB has to take some risks. Only really Rossiter has let him down as Grant and Rossiter were already at the club when he arrived and Anderson doesn't seem to have any previous injury issues. |

Must be disappointed we stayed up and had a season of consolidation. Not true, but I am watered off. watered off we lost at home, again. Disappointed we finished 17th. That had to be at the lowest end of our hopes for this season and is nothing to celebrate, surely. Unless you thought we would be immediately relegated after last year (which I am sure you didn't) Don’t be too disappointed Oldie, after all you probably started out as a back rub and look how far you’ve come so far! |

We either have all the possession and do little with it, or have loads of chances and not take them. The one constant is that we give away goals far too easily |

Unless you thought we would be immediately relegated after last year (which I am sure you didn't) I wanted us to finish higher but compare us to our cohort of teams promoted at the same time we’re marginally above PV, 3 behind Exeter, needn’t say any more than reference FGR. I’m a dreamer and I hope for the best each season. If we don’t aim for the playoffs at a minimum why bother. Of course I want us to repeat what we did back in 15/16 and achieve a double promotion. However we have to be realistic and as a promoted side consolidation (which is anything above 21st) has to be taken for what it is. What it is, is "blah" We met the very minimum expectations. In my opinion of course. Is that good enough? Well yeah if there are signs of progression, some evidence of a brighter future. Our form since the New Year is the exact opposite, which is very disappointing. |

Twenty one defeats and a minus fifteen goal difference simply not good enough if we are ever going to progress,Barton's got a busy summer to improve us. He could start with himself 🤭 🥱 |

Commentator just said we’ve made 7 subs today, how’s that work when the limit is 5 ? 13 players on the pitch Surely we are going to be fined and the ref disciplined  We got away with 6 because of the head injury to Colburn but could not believe my eyes when McCormick came on for Whelan albeit for about 10 seconds to make 7!! |

Wallows, Betty, wallows. Like a beached whale. Not healthy, Oldie, especially on Bridlington beach. Enjoy the close season. 👍 |

Has Barton gone yet? Or has he asked for another 12 new signings to replace the last lot of average players he signed.

Yeah i was thinking that. Surely the ref team weren’t making an exception just for Whelan to get a guard of honour? |

Another game very similar to lots of the previous 45. Looked good in possession created more than enough chances to win the game but gave away poor goals which cost us.
Plenty of positives but equally lots of work to do over the summer we can't concede 73 goals and expect to be anywhere other than bottom half.

To quote "1 point from the last 6 fixtures - same as the relegation season under Barton. 2 points from the last 7 fixtures. Barton would surely have been in the running for manager of the season, if it wasn't for the team consistently letting him down." Spot on |

Rules are rules and should be abided to or where does it end. |

Spot on Not sure if you meant to quote my post but I wasn't aware of any of those stats. What I would say it the last 6 or 7 games are very different to the ones in the relegation season. We've played a lot of the top sides and for the most part have matched them, unfortunately our ability to give away soft goals has cost us. As for JB, he's got us back to league 1 & kept us there. He's confident he can push us on towards the championship, whether that's the case or not remains to be seen |

The fanzone bar strangely wouldn’t serve anyone until the whistle had gone for HT, and then stopped serving as soon as the players came back out, one bloke even got told his order had been cancelled. First time I’ve seen that this season, really bizarre!
