    I keep seeing that ‘we haven’t got any money’, ‘we’re skint’ etc.

    How do you know that? The owners has just splashed out on some fancy pads in India hasn’t he? Spend some ******* here or get ****** off - that’s what was said about Conway & Lee etc. it’s no different….

    none of that matters. We knew that Cole and McAttee were leaving so you know you need 2 players to replace. We knew having seen Cosgrove and Marsh that both needed shipping out. The DoG I ann assuming doesn’t judge players on 2 games. So to sign zero attackers when it’s clear you need 3 or 4 is just ridiculous. Defending the board when they have allowed a situation where Watters is our best forward is just being contrary for its own sake.

    You can't be this dense? Surely?

    Should have battered em. All the managers have to do is show that performance today to the board and say just get us a half decent striker and we will piss it!

    Really dont see point in cosgrove on bench, we know hes gonna be crap, hes not gonna do owt different, might as well have put Dallas on bench. hes prob not the answer but couldnt have done any worse, especially with a point to prove. cosgrove knows his days are number so not even trying

    It’s not though is it? People having to live on the streets is thoroughly depressing, losing a game of football is a slight bump in the road.

    Yep, coming away from the ground very miserable, so many good chances and we lost.

    Losing 3-1 to a team destined for L2 = probably not good enough to go up.

    The three occasions they had the momentum and they scored every time.

    Barnsley on the other hand….

    Football is a crazy game. Their keeper is motm yet he got away with a dreadful mistake due to a questionable offside decision. That stands and I think they crumble, because they looked truly awful. Then we keep missing straightforward chances and gifting them goals. Very disappointing.

    Yeah and at same time get a reliable centre half signed as well, I know you always defend our defence but surely you must see we have big frailties at back mate

    Exactly this. I honestly think football is not the right thing for some people. If a result like today triggers such fury/ depression/ upset, it probably should be avoided.
