Carlisle themselves are struggling financially, as are Blackpool. I was hoping he could shield the players from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree singe but I’ve not heard that Blackpool or Carlisle payong players late, it’s happening too often with us not to have any impact on performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardner wasn't shite, he was trying to do everything, his pass percentage would have been decent today always looked to drive forward as well. I suppose when you get the boo boy reputation some people don't want to see beyond it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over does it for me and should never be the catalyst for all our attacks, doesn't hide and played OK today but not a patch on a player deemed surplus here a couple of years ago Mike Jones.

No we didn't, I hate it and it very rarely works even with World class players. Bunn has tried if before and it didn't work so why try it again when the players are clearly uncomfortable with it. I texted a friend at 3.10 to say that were playin 352 and he needs to change before they score. Unfortunately he waited until they scored 3 before doing anything. Naivety turning to embarrassment.

OLDHAMADE Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Shame but this game was already lost before a ball was even kicked, they could have spared the fan's embarrassment by just saying the players don't want it and take the 3 points. Before that announcement, a struggling Carlisle with their manager already under fire, wouldn't have got owt from that game and today is the first time I've felt that sickening feeling to the pit of my stomach since relegation.

Aside from the 2 yard passes to someone stood right next to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disjointed Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Have to say I enjoyed Miller's performance today, playing him in a 442 will work alongside a Surridge/Lang. I found it very hard to get enthused about the game today after the events of this week hopefully all the off field shenanigans will be resolved and we can look forward to FB learning from todays mistakes. I'm not going to lose sleep over today's shit fest, and hopefully the team and myself will have our mojo back in a fortnight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some pace in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Lang did well centrally when he came on and it was his direct run and through ball that put Miller in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Sadly Bunn got that one completely wrong and then did nothing about it until we were 3 nil down. If my employer wasn't paying me on time he wouldn't get the best out of me and that also seems to be the case with our club. We are once again looking towards the wrong end of the division. No game next week so lower we will go. I thought a double relegation was on the cards but then we were 6th but now at 12th and falling I'm sad to say it is.

latics22 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I’m sorry but not being paid is not a excuse! I’m not saying it’s right. But does it mean that us paying fans should sit through what I just paid the best part of 30 quid for? I know if I was playing in a stadium, sourrounded by paying fans, I’d be giving my all. It’s a easy excuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
