88mins we're 2-0 up at home. 

FT 2-2

Absolutely awful second half, Fleetwood deserved atleast 1pt.

David Flitcroft had better start assembling the squad for league 2, because that's us done.

This is the squad for league 2...most of them still have another 12 months of there contracts to run .....and I can't see anyone rushing to buy any of them 😬

If David Flitcroft is responsible for assembling a squad for League Two you can count me out.

This is now beyond insanity. 

That's the thing, he's going nowhere.

Fan power is everything.

Many said that about Norman.

A supposed pub team too as they were referred to on here earlier. They’ve got some decent players and a bit of fight about them. 

Very good midfield and forwards. Lawal is class. Even so, that 2nd half was embarrassing, never seen stats like it. I said first half I wasn’t sure how these are 2nd bottom. Streets ahead of us. We will finish below these

Looking objectively, DM set us up best he could. 3 units at the back told to play no nonsense football. Worked for 85mins, and then as per usual we forgot how to defend. 

Fleetwood changed things and came out swinging in the 2nd half, but if Debrah keeps his head we win this 2-0. That's the sort of disciplined, grind-it-out performance you need to put in week in week out to stay up in a relegation fight. Clearly this lot haven't got it in them.

No.

He needs firing tomorrow morning.

He should be nowhere near assembling a squad for any division.

Dam right Fraudcroft out 

Ger the conman gone

You know Carol could have bankrolled a decent striker and certainly would have had the final word on sacking the manager. 

 

She was distracted and too busy saving humanity.

Well Shanahan and Flitcroft what next ?

Totally played off the Park by Fleetwood

The other results went Vale’s way and what do they do.

Moore isn’t fit to lick Darrell Clarke’s boots 

Tactically he has been out done by a manager who has managed about 12 games 

Keep Ripley and get rid of the rest, can’t see a game out again.

 

We’ll be lucky - Ripley will be the first out followed by Gazza, Ojo and Chizzy.

Fraudcroft should have said to Carol in Oct to sack him.  But didn't push it with Carol.

Fraudcroft should have got a striker in and pushed the point the team needed one harder with Carol.  But didn't push it.

Nobody puts a tackle in we just stand off them and let them play they were strolling around passing it at will and sang didn't stop a single cross into our box patterson must have put 20 balls in. Loft had his chance and didn't even make the keeper save it. I really don't see us getting out of this after all the work to get into this division poor recruitment will send us back down again.

Relegation fodder. 

<ovf censored> off Vale. <ovf censored> off Flitcroft. <ovf censored> off you absolute bottlejobs. 

Our chance to make up ground tonight with Cheltenham, Burton, Shrewsbury & Cambridge all losing. 

That second half performance was an absolute disgrace. We’ve been played off our own pitch by Fleetwood Town - just let that sink in. We didn’t even deserve a single point from that game. 

Bring on League Two. Carol & ‘Flickers’ you’ve only got yourselves to blame. 

I’m done with this joke of a football club. 

[Vtid]

That second half was a disgrace! I’m not even suprised, I’m not even angry we have got used to this haven’t we. We got exactly what we deserved. Roll on Sutton & Harrogate. Thought the Yak had a good game on his return & big shout out to Baylee Dipepa he was fantastic tonight.

Then as per my original post, you can count me out.

I think my first game was as a 4 or 5 year old coming up to 35 years ago. This is comfortably in the top 3 worst squads I can remember.

It is a completely dereliction of duty from the owners to not hold the man responsible to account. They have done some wonderful things for our football club. Appointing David Flitcroft is not one of them.
