Worst we've played this season, so far. Lucky to get a point IMO
Turns, who i questioned yesterday, played well, though Thompson was our best player today.
Moncur is a waste of space IMO, and we need a goalscorer desperately IMO

In Richie's words from the other week
"Get the chequebook out"

One goal in the last 5 games, but as some will tell us there's not much of a problem going on because we are top of the league.

When you're top of the table opposing teams are always going to be trying that bit harder against us. Need to find a way through, even it means getting out the cheque book

Have to get the cheque book out and bring the right players in before our lead is whittled away.

If we’d drawn at Barrow and won at home most people would be very happy, it’s the other way round. I’m ok with that and another clean sheet with a patched up defence but I am worried by the recent lack of goals

Did we play badly or were Barrow very good . I came away from the ground thinking that Barrow were the best side I've seen us play so far at home . I thought Ed Turns started nervously but settled down during the game and improved .I thought he played well today and looks to be a decent signing. Having scored only one goal in five games does suggest we need somebody new up front . This is the one area we really would need to get the cheque book out to make that difference

In my opinion red Barrow were the for the taken.We just tippy tapped too long.Not shooting when we could.I just get frustrated watching and other team know what we’re all about and just play to nullify us.Which doesn’t appear to be a problem at the moment.Sometimes a little change here and there is good
In my opinion red,b

I Thought they were poor, a good side would have punished us in the last 10 mims.

Find it hard to disagree with this.I maintain Barrow were there for the taking.We just didn’t have the fire power to punish them

I think loss of Beckles and Happe was apparent whereas last week it wasn’t. We looked vulnerable at set pieces, particularly corners. Not surprisingly when we have lost our tallest players.
Turns played well. Nothing amazing but he looked like he’ll be a good addition.
As everyone has said I think our lack of goals is an issue. It will catch up with us soon if RW can’t solve it. For me we need to get more crosses in. There’s a reluctance to do it right now.
In RW we trust.

We need a No.9 and fast!
Apparently there’s a DJ about to leave Walsall, looking for a gig in Leyton, just saying…

Our lack of goals is coming from a lack of creativity, and chances not being there for Kelman.
If we had Haarland up front at the moment he wouldn't score, because no one would be giving him chances in the box.
Moncur was supposed to do that job, but he's been a major disappointment

I agree with the sentiment. Of course Haaland is that good that he’d go and make his own chances. We are top of the league so all is not bad but we do seem to be missing something.

No need to panic - was impressed with Harry’s cameo yesterday, especially having him there to defend set-pieces in the last 10 mins.
