We just got beat 4-1 at a team that started in 1988 and most of us are grateful that was all it was. Sack the board now.

[robininstockport]

Who could sack the board?

[Alty Dave]

I am not grateful and see it as a stuffing today.

They hardly broke sweat and appeared to score at will.

Glad I decided not to go.

Serious surgery required.

[arnald]

It's sad to say that a 4-1 defeat is a good result for us

[Alty Dave]

Defence incluiding Deasy are woeful, there is also no pressing of the ball.

Nom de Plume agrees with John Laidlar's view on Matchday Updates that Hannigan played well. And the rest didn't.

Matt Doughty continues to prove what a great choice as manager he was. Rowley inspired as usual.

Time for him to go 12 games and 7 defeats, any other manager would be sacked.

This malaise is evidence of greater issues than just the team management. The board are culpable and must be gone. I have been patient, but that has evaporated. Go damn quickly please Mr Rowley.

[Alty Bri]

What? Tom Hannigan was the only defender to play well? You're kidding me

At the start of the season, the board, made a reasonable recruitment choice of hiring Neil Young as manager given his experience at Chester. Personally  I think most clubs would have tried to hire a manager like Young given his credentials. Now  Young should never have taken the job if he had problems at home and was considering retirement so soon. The appointment of Jim Harvey should have been a no go from day one. Matt Doughty is a classic case of a romantic appointment that most chairmen fall for, When they appoint an old player to return to the club and save them but unfortunately this very rarely works.

Another manager leaving sounds like it needs to happen but the worst thing they can do right now is appoint Robbie Lawton or Grahame Heathcote. The thing they need the most is a manager who will change the playing style of the team, Thats what they need to look for.

Nothing new learnt today, apart from Gary Jones looked 40 years old and Tim Deasey gets worse everytime he plays. Only Clee and Hannigan would I be happy welcoming back next season. The others just aren't very good.

I'm completely the other way on young . It was a terrible choice he retired at stockport and vowed he had quit football . And nothing had changed and we should have done our homework.  Jim for me seemed the right choice but the damage was already done.  We are no better off now

[blackpoolalty]

Deasy, error prone for basic stuff, fumbling the ball from corners
Jones, first time he's looked well off the pace, lost possession several times
Cyrus, no confidence - hoof ball and poor passes
Hannigan, definitely something there needs a decent partner
Lawrie, invisible
Moult, never known a player go from top to bottom in confidence as he has
Clee, only one who looks like creating something for no one to take adavantage
Owens, improvement on last week but missed a chance that should've been a goal
Richman, invisible
McWilliams, not for me- better left backs out there


I agree that Rowley has clearly gone down the sentimanetal route with two seasoned ex players. It isn't at won't work. Get some meat head gripper boss who knows the lower leagues to rip this shower of sh*t up and assemble a team of workers and runners. Today, Fylde wore a white kit the guy Rowe has scored two goals and not got an inch of dirt on him

What was Newby like?
