Matchday Megathread, Stockport County v Barnsley

No shot on or off target is not good enough. We've signed a Premier League player and left him on the bench. Is Rodriguez still on the pitch? Not seen him. Dunn, Phillips and Connell all non existent.

 

That's what worries me. I am genuinely scared by how low I think our season ticket sales will be next season, not purely because of performances but the sky thing as well. I think collectively the TV deal, recruitment strategy and performances will see us with a very empty stadium and very little income and that will result in an even weaker squad and rapid decline. I fear we will be in league 2 within a couple of years

 

I reckon they should open the ST early bird and extend it for next 2 years

 

We need Russell, Nwakali and Phillips to care as much as Luca does.
How on earth the Oakwell crowd boo’s him coming on last week bewilders me.
Playing with a flat back four needs an effort from the rest of the midfield - they need to step up and retain the ball and press their midfield when not in possession just leaving it to someone else.

 

54% possession xG 0

 

I hope we get stuffed! The quicker the fan base revolt the better!

 

He reminds me so much of Bambo. Has all the physical attributes to be a good defender. But the mental side is so bad. His concentration and reading of the game is shocking. Does a few half decent things then totally ruins it with some piss poor slack decisions

 

haven’t slated him but the club have put him on the pitch therefore it’s open to opinion. All I have seen is exactly what we knew we were getting someone with no clue how to play in this country and we don’t have the months it will take for him to get used to it.

 

That's harsh ,he hasn't had much service ,the entire 11 are sub standard ,and questions should be aimed at the head coach.
Very very very poor team performance.

 

Leave it on but don't back red!

 

I can't believe theres still people justifying this with lack of transfer activity. We know we are short of options. Theres no justification at all for it being this bad.

Absolutely disgusting. Clarke should be fired at half time and going home on the train. Absolute clown. And even worse, a fanny.

 

I'd tell you to invite some neighbours around to watch it with you, but you probably like your neighbours.

 

no width no pattern of play everything played on a postage stamp if you had alan shearer robbie fowler harry kane up front barnsley still would not score

 

Well, that was a tough watch. Not sure I am going to see it through to the end. Can't see where the next win comes from at the moment.

12th is starting to look ambitious. I am just glad the bottom 4 are marooned. I think 43 might already be enough to stay up.

 

For the man of the match poll, can we have the option of "None, they are all 5hite?

Dearie me. Absolutely pathetic.

 

They zoomed in on Rodriguez just before HT.
If ever a man looked like he had one eye on this evening's LBA flight to Paris.

I'm not sure we'll ever see him again !

 

I have never wanted or hoped we lose a game.

 

This defence is no better than previous system.
When we get far enough forward we are crying out for wingbacks to overlap, especially left side.
Might as well change and have a go!

 

This is what gets my goat, the half- time Sky stats shows we have had 53% possession and we’ve struggled to put more than 3 passes together. We don’t put teams under a constant pressure. Having said that the 2 pieces of (non) defending which led to the goals were shocking to say the least. Earl on the left isn’t working with his poor distribution.

 

I agree.
