Re: Chorley

An abject capitulation like that really does set the alarm bells ringing about things behind the scenes as regards tactics, selection, motivation, spirit and leadership. Agreed. Yet we were told this was a great group of lads who want to do well. The co-commentator tonight was saying there's no sys...

Re: Chorley

Funny thing is, this result hasn't really surprised me. An absolute mauling was always going to come.

For me Nelson should be the next out the door, he's never shown any kind of form with us since he has been back. I know its harsh, but we have got to think of the club and survival.

Re: Peterborough V Darlington

Gowling's interview makes it sound like we had their goal under siege. Being one of the Darlo fans present last night, believe me, it wasn't.

Re: GOWLING OUT

Let's also remember that the board, some of who post on here, will be feeling the pressure and responsibility too, so they too need our support at the moment, whether or not you agree with the Gowling appointment. The thought of a possible relegation must be weighing heavily on them, and all decisio...

Re: GOWLING OUT

Playing devil's advocate here.
In his interview I believe he had analysed Darlington games, maybe even watched them, and has concluded that a number of players, who have played appallingly since February, are not good enough, regardless of seniority or not, so feels the squad needs big changes

Re: Tamworth V Darlington

Yarblockos' point was the one we were debating on the way back from the game and is key to whether we stay up or not. Do we have a decent enough squad who have been badly coached and therefore Gowling can get enough out of them, or is the squad so poor that a new manager couldn't get much our of the...

Re: Darren Holloway

If players are going over to say that to him, then it's a reflection on what was wrong with the club. Players in a nice cozy environment. Says everything about them really. That's why we needed someone else in. Like to know who he was blaming and what he was saying.

Not feeling celebratory about this at all. Feeling very sad actually, as I really wanted AA to succeed and he has many good attributes. Right decision clearly, but he's given us many happy times.
