Probably a result of the LOW's poor start to the season. The new regime will want better...

Either way those stats are damming. The problem has been brewing for awhile. Must have been the momentum of the L2 title that carried us along...but now gone.

RW needs to find system that work with L2 level players. Also needs to realise that most of our loans probably wish they hadn't come to LO. We also need a new process for recruitment. NT needs to find new investment before the window. We also need a cup run, for the cash so RW should play our strong...

Something needs to change...

Ling and Wellens need to move on...and quickly

2 2

Nailed on certainty, especially with 6 loanees wishing they had gone elsewhere...

ML, RW are responsible for this dire form.

I think we need to change RW and ML, not working now in a tougher League 1

RW and ML need to go if we are to survive in L1

We have reached an inevitable point in our history. Leave the current ownership structure as is and we struggle to stay in L1. New ownership brings opportunity and lots of risks, we will have to hope for the best...

RW has been great for us, he now needs to grapple with what players he has been given and make us a competent L1 side.

Imho our focus this season will be survival

Feels like recruitment has been poor - Ling The team are under performing - RW The board haven't found additional investors - NT Home games are quiet - Fans We are looking like a bottom 6 team, very worrying...and attendences bear this out. We are going to need to scrap for points. Club needs to sta...

Webpages football had it at 8705 - and I believe that was what got announced. Maybe they made a mistake in counting?

The match was a sell-out and Wrexham brought 1250 fans - so I assumed that the "additional" east side capacity would allow for c. 8950 tickets to be sold? The announced crowd was 8705 - well below the sell-outs of last season (which were around 8750)

Anyone know why this was?

Lots of optimism here...I think another 2 2, and we will be happy with the point!

Crowd 8950

As fans, I feel we definitely need the new arrangements clarified. If the LOWFC has been spun out, it makes the earlier decision to bring a Level 4 club into LOFC proper and start again at Level 8 look bonkers! Hopefully this is not the case and the club retains control just with more investment and...

This season will be all about getting to 50 points...

RW should have played a much stronger side - we might have a chance of winning it
Not sure why he didn't - we were playing a good Prem side?

The players who featured all worked hard, we looked like a good L1 side at times - but the red card finished the contest.

Great relief, but still 3 points out of 15. Hard games next...hopefully we will grind out points most weeks. Brentfud next...hope we play a strong side and give them a right old game...

I would have had him back at the O's. Should of happened...

Board, Ling, RW, players and us all to blame. There is a case for all. In case you are wondering, our fans don't sing enough at home...

My take on the first three games was that we were competitive but no more than that. Goalkeeping errors aside we didn't make many chances. RW persuaded all of us, especially the players that they were good perfomances, they weren't. Players drank the kool aid and expected to beat the Shrews. RW, we ...

This team has only scored two goals in x4 matches. Forget about the defensive errors. We know recruitment has been poor - no wow signings at all. Board have been complacent - because we have Wellens - and of course he is settled here with a long contract so perhaps less hungry. Put it all togther in...
