    Presume it's to do with the running battles through the centre of York after the previous game. Ended up having to get the kids a cheap hoodie each as they were walking round in Oldham shirts while packs were roaming "looking for Oldham"!

    Most Oldham fans I saw after the game were put on double deck buses so would have gone straight to the station.

    Not sang a single Unsworth chant yet, won’t until he wins football matches. 

    With the numbers and top strikers we have signed even I could keep us up.

    I will not sing for Unworthy who does not deserve it.

    Once you lose the supporters, there isn't a way back. As a manager, you do everything in your power to endear yourself, to show you're 100% committed to the cause and demonstrate that you're hurting if it's not going your way.

     

    Stubbornness just doesn't prevail in the end. Unsworth could play this so much better, even if he just isn't up to the task or the job in hand - and the scale of the rebuild - has caught him by surprise. But by attempting to bullshit the fans, to gaslight and to treat them with any level of contempt is a one-way ticket out. Ronnie tried it, Dave Penney too. Shitpeas and the Lemsegams declared war on us. But ultimately, every time resulted in the same thing.

     

    The only way forward for him is results to go our way and performance levels to rise. His stock in the eyes of the majority can't get lower.

    Pretty well what I've been saying for the past few weeks starting at Bromley away

    At the risk of doing a BP1960 Im leaving here now. Far to toxic and full of BS. Shame as it used to be a good place.

     

    I go into hospital on Friday so have bigger issues to deal with.

     

    Good luck all, we all want the same thing (most of us). Ill try to remember the prefiction league 

    Hope all goes well in hospital 

  5. If he was a success I wouldn't care but this waste of space is just an arrogant bullshitter who loves to spend Frank's money in the hope that one day he may by chance and numbers get it right and claim it was all his brilliance. Personally I prefer  soneone  who has ability, feelings towards  our fans,can get the best out of the players at his disposal  and knows what he is talking about and shows some humility and accepts he has made massive mistakes.

    No wonder Nuttall decided to move.
    A bad day for another long-standing football club.

    Wish them all the luck.

    Same here.Recall their old club ground near the town centre which is now a supermarket and a lot closer to the station!!!

    Also Woking and Bromley who  both won are decent teams with good managers.

    I’d like to think there’s a plan B being drawn up as we speak. Sheridan I think landed last Jan? and still couldn’t keep us up. I hope nobody is still thinking we couldn’t possibly go down again - we could and we will if something doesn’t change and fast 

    Unworthy has lost  the fans support,his arrogant  attitude  is appauling, his post match excuses are repetitive and he has wasted Frank's money and proven you can't buy your way out of this league. I've looked at what Everton fans thought of him and it's the same as ours.He has to go but his arrogant  attitude  and long contract mean its unlikely.

    Having been told that the plan for the club includes the possibility of a relegation this season I'm not surprised that there appears to be a complete lack of concern with the results Rhino is getting.  It's like a work in progress to a way of playing but even the players brought in the last three months don't seem to get what he wants.

    His latest interview is either all bluff or from someone confident of his position.

    The sensible positive steps the club is making off the field are in complete contrast to inexplicable unbelievable mess on the field.

    What a wonderful December with Southgate squandering the best group of players we have ever had and then being begged to carry on and Unsworth failing spectacularly with a group of players who I'm sure are good enough to be mid table.  Southgate only fails against the best but Unsworth only fails.

    Even our rare home wins have been lucky ones

    There is being patient with a manager and giving him time whilst you can see progress (albeit not in the results) and there is being plain stupid and irresponsible. If Unsworth is still here by the time we play Dorking away on the 7th January the board or the person responsible for appointing the manager needs to be answering serious questions, the first being what can you see that 98% of the fanbase can't? Or is it a case of sticking with him because we can't keep sacking managers? If you've got the wrong man that is not a reason to stick. Or are they just being loyal to their mate? Anyone can make a mistake appointing the wrong man but allowing it to continue makes that person just as culpable as Unsworth and he should go as well.

    Good old saying about not putting  pride before a fall.

    He should walk out now and rip the contract up if he had any honour.

    He's lost the plot and our loyal fans support.

    I would have thought more about him if he came over to the away support and clapped them  even from a safe distance rather than stroke his beard and walk down the tunnel .

    Frank must be thinking what have I let myself in for.Our new fans must be thinking the same and will soon drift away.

    Interesting to hear their manager say he tried to play for the point with 5 minutes to go and they still ended up winning!
     



    What's also interesting is his view on our squad which, in his opinion, is full of players who could "walk into any top 7 side" 
     


    What does this say about Unsworth not being able to get any sort of tune out of them?

     

    Sums it up.Time is soon up for me.We have the players but the captain of the Titanic in charge.

    Done my bit and recommended from non league a fast powerful young right back, a right winger a class above, an attacking midfielder who scores and creates goals a young left winger who terrorises defenders and 2 local players in the Conference North I've been impressed with.

    All are dynamic players who get you out of your seat when they receive the ball, you just know something good is going to happen.

    I'm somewhat disillusioned at the moment as I doubt any will be considered and I've nothing else to offer I'm afraid.

     

    At least you tried BP.

    We need those types.

    Agree with this. Doesn't matter what the formation is when most of the players can't play a simple pass. So many straight to the opposition.

     

    Half our lot look like they are running through treacle. 

     

    No leadership - completely powderpuff.  e

     

    Literally the only positive today for me was Abraham but we need another 6 or 7 of similar ilk to stand a chance.

    I've been to all the  away games and it's the same....can't pass the ball apart to the opposition, clueless marking of players in the box hardly a shot on goal all the game, playing deep and allowing opposition to attack aimless kicking the ball sideways passing which allows opposition  to intercept poor crosses and freekicks  wasted. At least they put in a bit more effort today but the camera doesn't  lie and its clear to all our away games are an embarrassment. 

    Our supporters deserve better or they will drift away.

    Just watched the interview maybe a blessing in disguise losing tonight, the hierarchy are left with no doubt of the challenge of getting a team capable of challenging in this division, they have inherited this i think some fans had false expectations this year.

     

    How many of the current squad would you keep will give you a grasp of the challenge at hand?

    I was never expecting  promotion but I was expecting a team with passion and bottle

    Spot on with the no passion, control or wanting to win.

    90% of our passes go sideways or backwards and I can count on one hand the number if times one of our midfield players turned forward tonight and actually ran at the opo.

    We seem to be half a yard slower than whoever we play, and put very little pressure on the ball ever.

    I don't care what system he plays, most of our current squad are just not good footballers.

    I don't buy this our squad should be good enough to compete in this league.

    It's blatantly obvious by now we are not. 

     

    Ask yourself how many of our current squad would get into Wrexham's or Notts Countys side and it all becomes clearer. We are nowhere fucking close and are in a relegation battle.

    Until we can ship the majority out and start again it won't get better so just back the team and hope we have enough to stay out of the bottom 4.

     

    Would any get into Wrexham or Notts team?

    Answer......none and probably   neither any of  the top six currently.

  15. Yet another lacklustre woeful away performance. No passion,no control,no wanting to win the ball,clueless when they got in the last third.

    Altrincham were crap but at least they wanted to win.

    Good goal but their player had tons of room to line up his shot.

    Opponents  always seem to have a fast winger,two giants at the back and know how to pass the ball.

    I felt sorry for any fans who went away for the first time but this is so repetatative and teams have sussed us out as being nothing to fear.
