Can’t really understand why we moved Grant away from the left wing back role when he’s been flying (and scoring from there)Anderton,to me,looks so slow and has very little composure for that role,surely there was someone else we could have shuffled in to the right back position and what’s happened to Hoole? Grant is very versatile. However i would say he struggled last night at right back which seemed to affect his whole game. He has been very good at left wing back recently. Problem is Anderton and Harries are left sided players. And the shortage is on the right. anderton isn’t even comfortable on his left! Imagine asking him to play on the right 😩

I don’t think there was anything wrong with the substitutions and the way the game played out Salford sat in with 10 men behind the ball and made it hard to break down. Nicho was starting to blow and Collins showed nothing of any end product throughout the game. Pitman and Thomas were able replacements to attempt to net us a second. Thomas has had an attitude problem at Barnsley and Ipswich. Whether that is mental health or not I don’t know but his reputation is preceding him off the field rather than the quality of his football on it. Like JB said, no point reflecting what a good player you could have been rather than showing what a good player you are. JB will know Thomas better than us, and perhaps knows how to make him tick better than us, he was also absolutely right to call out the shocking miss when he’s through on goal. He needs to bury that. Yes calling him out in public will really help. Not. With narcissist Barton it's always someone else's fault. Maybe he's better off questioning his own game management and why we dropped 2 points at the weekend from a two goal leading position and previously failed to beat 10 man Colchester and 10 man Barrow. He could then question why we only have the crock Pitman (who can't run) as our solitary no.9 option, after signing the 36-year-old crock Clarke, who had 2 hamstring injuries and a back operation last season. Dam hell, even your usually sound judgement, is now being clouded, because of your loathing for JB? It really is contagious

Not sure Barton can make Thomas score when he's clean though with just the goalie to beat? Thomas basically has cost us 2 pts tonight and now made Saturday's game that bit tougher. And Nicholson on Sat with that miss, just as easy, gets an easy ride? but has scored twice in two matches?

Barton sees Thomas everyday in training, he’s obviously not doing it, or he’d be starting! He should of at least, made the keeper make a save. Barton has given him numerous chances to grab it, but hasn’t. If LT can’t handle the criticism, he’s in the completely wrong industry. My take on this, is JB is now trying the kick up the ass tactic.

Yep. And they're actually starting to hammer out results, starting to put performances together, even with injuries, the crowd is getting behind them now because the fight and hard work is back. But hey, get rid of him so someone else can come in and ruin it right? f**k me, three wins since Newport (one being the cup) and suddenly Barton’s the right man. This place is baffling I’ve never seen a fan base quite like it. Do you follow all 92 league clubs?

Barton has assembled a very mediocre squad of cast-offs and players well past their sell-by date. We would have been better advised to take a punt on promising Conference players. There is a reason this team isn't gelling, they aren't very good. Let's not kid ourselves we have a squad worthy of promotion, we are poor in most areas. Every goal scored is a surprise as we are as sharp as scissors trying to cut through rock. Fans who thought the win over Crawley was the start of a turnaround are delusional. It was a dire performance; we were very lucky and Belly had a blinder. If that is as good as it gets we will lose many more games than we win. Barton has made some crazy statements, not least the promotion promise. I remember him saying after a rare win last season that we would stay up; that didn't quite work out did it? His football management career is on borrowed time and so are we with the rubbish he has acquired. Garbage out, but garbage in unfortunately. 🤣🤣

Love him or hate him, I reckon he will at least work hard and be visable and available which will be a massive improvement on Starnes. Only met him a couple of times but I quite liked him so I really hope he doesn't let us down. why would anyone Hate him?

i thought Whelan really showed his class at times today, but yes Evans is a very good player for league 2. I think a lot of our players, are really starting to show some quality. I think the second half of the season is gonna be very interesting. Sign a striker in jan? Who knows 👍🏽 There is nobody to be afraid of in this league. Orient and Port Vale have been good the times ive seen them, but the rest are pretty meh. Bolton had half our current points total this time last season and finished 3 points behind the champs i think it’s anyone’s league, Swindon are the side who I thought beat us convincingly, scored good goals, and controlled the game. Leyton orient game, I thought we gifted them goals, but they scored against the run of play.

won 'A' game??? Think that's a couple of wins against teams flying high in the league and a draw against a side flying high in the league above! Whoopee sh**. Still a vile human being. very harsh comments, but your entitled to your opinion. Have you ever spoken or met him?

Whelan very unfortunate. No intent whatsoever. He just couldn’t get out of the way because his momentum carried him through. Very well taken goal by Evans. Curious one, he is. Was playing with Alexander Arnold in the England u18s and his progress obviously stalled somewhere along the line, but he has so much quality at this level. I love how he can receive the ball with his back to goal and turn so comfortably in either direction. Really classy. i thought Whelan really showed his class at times today, but yes Evans is a very good player for league 2. I think a lot of our players, are really starting to show some quality.

Harsh pen? (although I thought it was at time) Unfortunate for GW second yellow also? Both decisions were pathetic 😩

If anything it looked like Northampton had ten men for the last half an hour or so not us. They never pressed us enough, and i don't know what their performances have been like in the build up to this game, i know they have kept a lot of clean sheets recently and fair play to them but for a team sitting in third spot i thought they were generally poor. Tbh i am still mystified by that Referee performance today, that was truly shocking. but do you think we played well RUSS

Just got back from the game. Wow, what an afternoon! I so needed that! :-) I felt we were the better team throughout the game, and thoroughly deserved to win. Josh Grant was superb, fully deserved his goal and man of the match. Dangerous on the left side of the park, full of energy and creativity. Connor Taylor was magnificent at the back as always. Fantastic goal-line clearance to seal the three points right at the death. He was unfortunate with the penalty, looked soft from the South West stand. James Belshaw with his usual excellent performance in goal. Sam Nicholson ran his socks off. Glenn Whelen had a good game, what excellent distribution he has. Superb balls out to Grant. Felt his sending off was a bit harsh, was a wild sliding tackle though. This was a superb team performance, you could really see the hunger and desire out there. Finally, it was so good to hear The Mem loud again today, the atmosphere was rocking. Like I said, I so, so needed that! UTG. agree with everything 👍🏽

The fact is, this team is beginning to find momentum, starting to look like a team. As Joey said, this team will show its real potential around Xmas. That’s starting to look a good assessment

We all need to remember the mental DC who was obsessed with the training ground and had stagnated at the club after his success I remember the massively frustrated DC who brought us 2 promotions and was let down by a stagnating football club. If he had been backed, as I believe he had been promised with the training ground, where would we be now? what he did for us was amazing, but let’s not get blinded, he found his level, just like a players do. He was perfect for us, at the right time. I wish him all the best, but we need to move on.

Agreed think there were to many changes to be of benefit to anyone. Would have thought it would not be to hard for 1/2 dozen or more local clubs like Yeovil, FGR, Chelt, Newport, Swindon, Oxford, and Rovers to arrange home and away games over a season in a mini league? the players are there so only additional cost would be Travel, easily sponsored i would have thought. It must be too hard or they'd arrange it? Not sure if COVID protocols make it all a bit harder for lower league clubs to arrange friendlies? surely Covid isn’t that intelligent Topper 🤣

No, all you’ve done, is quoted, everything Barton has said, due to your self obsessed loathing for him? It’s comical 🤣 You've got this so wrong it's actually laughable 🤣 I was listening to his post match interview live on the radio and I thought I might post some of the stuff he was saying for those who were not listening to it and can therefore read it before the recording of it gets posted. Pretty much what a lot of people do every single matchday, regardless of the club they support and who their manager is. I tried my best to keep up with what was being said so was only able to type a few lines of what he actually did say. Nothing more and nothing less than that. Yes I dislike the guy. But did you notice, I didn't say anything negative about what he was saying in his interview? Did you notice that I wasn't calling for his head during or after the game? If I only posted his quotes last night due to how I felt about him (as you claim), then I would have said more than just his quotes. Think about it.
Self obsessed loathing for him 🤣
ok
