Mcgahey deserves to keep his place after Tuesday.I also think Conlon would be more effective playing further forward so wouldn’t mind him and Hammond eventually in front of Mcgahey.

Another example of our lop sided squad that Kitching whose been crap for weeks will play just on the basis he has a left foot.

Agreed,he should at least front up and answer some probing questions not the usual waffle that he gets asked by the clubs media employee.

Get Gardner and Green on and have a go.Disgraceful performance for Franks homecoming,let’s hope they put it right 2nd half.

Id like to see an attacking option on the bench even if it’s a youth player.Asking for trouble keep playing Garner for 90 minutes twice a week.

Tarky and his Mrs doing the rounds as top shaggers,fair play although Tarky did look a bit awkward when she answered.!

After Franks heroics even the football Gods can’t have us lose this can they!A win would be nice a repeat of celebration Sunday would be fitting for Frank.

Not sure why people are saying we’re 352,clearly 442 with Kitch ahead of Hogan down the left side.Hammond on the right ahead of Sutton.Think Green will come on 2nd half,give us an outlet,games there for the taking.

Can’t believe we’ve had 10 days to come up with a game plan and that’s the best we can muster,absolutely abysmal that first half.

I know it was the phone in and not the podcast but was great to hear from Jim Fryatt’s son,was before my time but obviously a player held in great regard from those that saw him play.

Maybe it’s a precursor to their relegation to the national league for financial irregularities and they’ll need the whole of greater Manchester to fill the ground once the glory hunters have pissed off!

With the exception of Hogan who was suspended he selected the winning team from Tuesday which many have said performed admirably.No problem in saying go again lads but today was awful.

5 promotions under his belt,I couldn’t give a shit if it’s not exactly pep like footy,we don’t have the players for it anyway as a national league club.

Paying the wages of a vastly inadequate manager,congratulations Frank,unfortunately think you’ll find your paying customers may well have lost patience with him.

I would guess 90% of other managers in this league would get more out of this squad than Rhino.Literally anyone but clueless Dave.

Winning 1 out of our first 8 games doesn’t cause concern in the boardroom then.Very bemusing.

It’s difficult to recruit players for a system when you don’t have a system!Unsworth doesn’t know what formation to play thus what his best team is.

My take.I could understand his appointment,the Royles knew him,past experience etc.I’ve followed Latics since 86,in that time I’ve shouted at matches for 2 previous managers to go.David Penney and David Dunn.Now I made my mind up about Unsworth pretty quickly,he constantly builds up the opposition,I wonder if he does this in team meetings.Now every match we start with 1 point,I have a feeling he clings to that 1 point and then with the likes of Norwood thinks we’ll have enough to get 3.The problem is we have no attacking intent,we play with the handbrake on.We lose the ball and then retreat to the edge of our box,the midfield is on top of the defence and the poor sods(or sod if we’re playing someone really good) is left scratching his arse 60 yards away.He’s had more financial backing and more support than any other manager I can remember.Oh and don’t get me started on his interviews,he regularly watches a different game to me and contradicts himself so much it’s beyond funny.I understand we don’t want to be known for sacking managers,that’s perfectly understandable,however if it’s blindingly obvious you’ve appointed a dud it’s best to get rid.I personally believe if he is a friend of the Royles he’d do the decent thing and resign.My final point ,we should never appoint another David as manager!

Credit where it’s due they set up to have a go today something I hadn’t previously seen in a Unsy team.Must build on this on Tuesday now,in Norwood we’ve certainly got the striker but it’s all about the service which he thrived on today as Nuttall proved a perfect foil for him as his assists showed.We’ve set the standard today and the intent,well done players and management team.

Spot on,my thoughts exactly.We’ve a group of strikers who are more than capable of getting the goals to get us out of this league.But we’ve a manager who has zero clue how to set a ‘winning machine’ up let alone how to create the chances that these strikers need.Since his first game we’ve sat back,the midfield literally play 10 yards from the defence leaving the strikers completely isolated.Not to mention the gaping hole at right back and a creative midfielder which we’ve had months to address.For a guy whose on 3 times the salary of Shez he’s stealing a living.

He’s obviously gonna be here next season which doesn’t surprise me although I personally would’ve got rid a couple of months ago.What I will find interesting is now we’re safe how we play,there’s no excuses for Rhinoball to continue unless that is indeed his preferred style and system of play.I however think we’ll get more of the same negative,defensive tactics he’s employed throughout the season.Which worries me leading into the summer as I’m concerned even with a competitive budget and decent recruitment he’ll still not be able to produce a successful football team.There are no guarantees with any manager but I’ve seen no improvement even with better players so what’s gonna change in the summer?

Haha you couldn’t make it up,the pitch lost us the match now.Come on Dave,be the laundry woman’s fault next.

Take care chap,hope all goes well.

My worry is with Unsworth that he appears not to know how to set a team up.He also on top of that doesn’t know his best formation or best 11 with the players available.The squad was much smaller under Shez who had us 14th,since then we’ve brought in an abundance of new players with little by the way of understanding or how we’re trying to play.I am not a fan of chopping and changing managers but his record is horrendous and the odd win like against Dorking is précédéd and followed by abject performances.If he had a semblance of a structure or there were signs of recovery I’d be giving him more time but there simply isn’t.Managers are judged on results and they tell you all you need to know.If it looks like shite and smells like shite it genuinely is shite.

The team selections leave a lot to be desired and there’s certainly no sign of improvement.All rather concerning so early in the season.
