    This has to be a joke the players are all in on now. There's no way they can be this bad at putting the ball between the big rectangle.

    Oh well at least Watters should be back for the Brum game we might actually be able to finish a chance then.

    We’re trining into a proper tough watch again, aren’t we?

    Unfortunately this is what happens when hiring lower league managers, even if you want them to succeed…. They’re just not capable.

    Not sure how you blame the manager for our players missing sitters

    “Sam Cosgrove is a big strong number nine”.

    Have they seen him play??

    Play till Xmas and I don’t think we will score at Oakwell. Looks like Jan can’t come soon enough.

    Absolutely 100% not on the manager - the last two performances have been fine. Wigan wasn’t great but we deserved something from it.

    You can lead a horse to water and all that. Dominated possession. Twenty odd attempts at goal per game by the time this is done.

    Two goals so far. Gilt-edged chances missed. We needed strikers and signed Humphrys who isn’t an out and out 9 and Keillor-Dunn who’s not even really a 10.

    The best finisher we have is never fit.

    I’m no exactly a Clarke fan so far but I’m not putting Tuesday or today on him. It isn’t like it’s wrong tactically, on Tuesday we gave **** goals away through individuals being slack and missed chances. Today we’ve missed chance after chance.

    The problem is it’s now getting the point where it’s always one or the other, we’re either making stupid mistakes at the back gifting goals away or not being clinical enough at the other end.

    You’re completely right about the signings we brought in, in the summer but at the same time this manager has had enough time to get us proper going; it’s been very stop, start….

    Could be although he's been here a long time now and never been a regular which hasn't been just down to injury. We had better strikers last season and one before. Watters would be in my starting 11 if everyone was fit this season though.
