Players scrapping in the tunnel at the. half time whistle. 

Who were.?

Darren went straight down the tunnel – the bloke is as good as gone. And to be fair, it’s fully deserved. You can’t stick Cole, a natural goalscorer, out on the left with barely any chance to get a shot away. It’s a sackable offence on its own, and it’s not even the first time he’s done it this season. You just can’t handicap your best finisher like that and expect anything different.

Thinking connor hall and jesse are league one level is a sackable offence in itself

Neither of them are responsible for us only scoring 11 goals all season. We have conceded the same number of goals as 4th placed stockport and 8 less than 15th placed leyton otrient but we have scored less goals than anyone in the league, our problem isn't at the back.

Moore went straight down the tunnel, dunna worry he’s a gonner! 

I think that’s because he was getting stick, not because he knew he was finished.

He might be sacked but I doubt he knew before the game.

He's turned players i quite liked into terrible players by playing them out of position.

Beginning to really dislike John. He's terrible. No attacking nous or pace.

However, no chance hes a wingback in a million years .

So I need to lay the blame at the managers door.

And I know this is petty to the extreme and he was a dreadful manager but I agree with the Aspin opinion on gloves. Get them off man and get on with the game. It's the UK not Norway. Hate it.

Out and paton too 

DM out yes. 

Paton no.  Fans will see a change in the players if a new manager comes in and starts playing them in their right positions and a formation for the fit players.

Seems the players have had enough of being told to play out of position and taken the only action they can and that is to look like they give a damn and go through the motions on the pitch till the manager is gone.

Just hope Carol and the board have the bottle to take the step and say thank you for your service and buy.  It is not working anymore.  However, feel they wont and will wait till after the transfer window is closed and we are too far behind 5th from bottom to escape the drop.

How can you score a goal when connor hall twats the ball either out of play or to no one 

I like a lot of the players in this team. I do not like how the manager uses them incorrectly. 
 

there is only one answer and that’s bye bye Moore. 

He’s done a post match interview. She hasn’t sacked him yet. This is a disgrace Carol. It should have been done to him 5 minutes after full time. There’s nothing to discuss.

DM has been doing it all the time in the 2nd and 1st Div.  Making players play out of position to suit his formation, till he finally gave up and listened for once.  So we actually went up and now he is trying to do it in Div 1.  However, this league is more clinical and he just doesn't have an answer to it.  Just tries the same the next game, but changes players around.

He must know the writing is on the wall and its change time.

I dont think him going straight down the tunnel means anything. He did the same thing last time we were in league 1. he only stayed out when we won.

I don’t think she has the temperament of a Greek mob boss tbh
