Whether it be the new owners coming in, Kevin Nicholls coming in as coach, or the players still (in my opinion understandably) struggling after Dale's death, something aint right at the moment folks.

In football, when things are good, everything works, but this is Justins' first real test as a manager. The ability to turn around a broken side, thats what separates a good manager from a great one. I'd take Stoney back to help him though.
Heard a rumour about lack of wage payments again, does anybody know if this is true. I thought Calder and Beasant were going to put money in! Could this be the start of another "Weymouth"?

The two centre backs are diabolical, i said it from the moment i saw them. Send them both back, Gash too.

It's not a matter of effort, it's not dales death. It's ability. And this XI are void of any.
I was'nt keen on Prosser in the two games i've seen him and they were against bottom of the league and a team two divs below. Quite suprised about Thorne, maybe he'd be better with an older head and what i've seen of him, Michael "is" Gash!

Anyone who knows football knows as a Centre Back, mental attributes are as important as physical attributes. Concentration, desire, passion, the passion to lose your bollocks to save a goal. This all comes with experience. We don't have that with two loan youngsters sorry.
Spot on.
well put.

No one would know if this is true or not so can we not start this rumour again, it's not nice to think about the possible consequences. :(
R.I.P Dale. We will never forget you.

I'm not prepared to start speculating on a rumour (even though it may be true). I think it's best as a fan to remain optimistic until proven otherwise especially on owners. If that is true, (by the way Hi Coltrane ;) ) uh oh.

But Nichols cant be that good of a coach been shit since he joined, anyone wana write a letter signed bt the whole of the Debank asking Stoney to come back
Then why the hell are Barnet in a relegation battle, and why is he just a coach there?
True but id rther have him than Nicholls its shocking, yea we had a good midfield last year but the management team were great also hense y i said about stoney him an Justin just work so well together !! Plus Barnet aint got Byrne playing ;)

Just spoken to Chris Barratt and he says we've totally dominated the game, but just haven't created chances, our supply to the front men has been woeful and Charles is having a mare apparently, Osano to blame for the first goal, Hayes have had 3 chances and scored 2, neither which were Day's fault.

Chris is still confident that we can get something here, he reckons Smith will come on and if he does, that he'll score, so I'll go with that assessment. Smith and Mills, 2 players I don't rate too highly to come on and change the game in our favour !!

That said, we're a results business and the owners must be wondering if Justin has what its takes to get us out of this. I personally don't want to see a change (yet!) but there will come a time when the reality of our situation will start to hit home, many managers have lost their jobs with better results, but not many have had to cope with the situation we've had recently, hence he gets my vote of confidence. He will turn it around, but we need some new blood in the team and some new ideas in the tactics dept.
