Why don't we come back from going a goal down?

Answer to that's easy. Not enough goals.

It's worrying he said the answer is to not go a goal down! I understand he's trying to be positive, but it gives the impression he doesn't really have an answer, just like his team doesn't.

No there won't be any repercussions if we put in another no show, as you've said we've had enough no shows already this season.

I love in hope that we will see a reaction but it is hope rather than expectation.

the usual reaction from our players is, we don't give a fuck.

I’m not sure it’s this, more that it looks that way because they’re not even that sure how to implement plan A, so when a plan B is needed they just don’t have a clue what to do. That mostly falls at the managers feet unfortunately.

[RevidgeBlue]

It doesn't matter because apparently getting stuffed every other game is only to be expected and all part of the cunning long term "project" whereby everything miraculously falls into place in five years time.

I thought BCFC looked good at our place. They had a young lad named Scott who ran the show I thought. They had a very mobile front four generally with Weimann playing well too. Tricky fixture. 

Weimann is injured, as well as Conway who was one of the front 4 at our place. 

Wells will score against us, he always does!

[Hi Mack]

I think this game is a big game in our season. If we lose I think the play offs will be too hard to achieve. It doesn’t look like the support is coming in terms of signings.

Maybe the post Xmas failures weren’t a TM issue? 
 

if we win……it just about keeps us ticking over!

Until these arsehole owners sod off nothing improves Rev and I take no pleasure in saying that.

We deserve better as fans, the town deserves better and every day they remain at the club they piss all over Jack Walkers legacy, his memory deserves better. 

Venkys out and I don't care what the consequences are, I'll happily take whatever comes to get rid of those arseholes.

Very evasive from JDT despite some good probing by Bayes. I bloody hope he’s doing more behind the scenes to address our inability to get back into matches.

 

Finding it increasingly difficult to listen to him. Full of wind and bluster. The answers are so vague and wishy washy. Sort it out Jon. Not good enough.

[Mattyblue]

Is he any different than any other manager in a pre match presser?

[DE.]

I mean, our record when going behind is so embarrassing that he'd either have to throw himself or the players under the bus if he was to give any kind of detailed response. So something vague is probably the only sensible option. 

[DE.]

I like that the "young team" nonsense was challenged as well.

A shame that nothing close to this level of questioning was ever given to Mowbray. One can only wonder why.

Or he could try the truth !

Yes.

Really? In what way?

Don't see most smiling and grinning there way through questions about their teams ability to come back in games where they go behind or trying to hide behind a "young team" narrative.

That’s just his personality, you best stop watching if you don’t like the grinning.

But generally no manager would go into chapter and verse pre game of the team’s faults. It’s all about platitudes to honour media commitments and to keep the pressure off the players.

Pressers mean bugger all.

Spot on…Almost a nervous smile/laugh if you ask me.

[Fraserkirky]

After listening to Greg podcast, I’m a lot more relaxed about the season. 
Would like to see Buckley start and play well, and Philips. Markandy needs to play.
Need Brereton back on form big time.

Vale and Morton again !

[ItsRoverZ]

Jack Vale leading the line again...

Markandy not starting which is a shame he's a dangerous player.

Not even in the squad! Has to be an injury…..

[Cherry Blue]

Disappointing team. Just hope he's got it right.
