Did he convince you then? And does he convince you now?

Sounds a bit deluded to me.

Agree above:  Eisa also poor. Wanted Vernam to start.  

Worry is number of weaknesses in the team.

Subs should have been made 10-15 mins earlier.

Not entirely, no. But, 7 weeks in I didn't expect miracles. He never goes OTT or publicly slates the players. He keeps reiterating that we will stay up. I just didn't think the defeatist comment married up with this.

That was a really hard watch.  I really hope we get some full backs that can defend before the transfer window shuts.  

We need a replacement for Conteh sharpish because Green can’t play football, he just runs around missing tackles.

Couldn’t identify a plan for us to create much today either, a bad day at the office all round.

Very poor performance and surprised things weren't changed at half time. Playing out from the back ant then hoofing it up in the air, made an average Tranmere team look good.
Listened to Artell saying we won't get relegated on the radio, I wish I had his confidence. Too me points are more important than style of play.
Hope Artell doesn't turn out to be the next Mick Lyons.

Perhaps the most comprehensively inept midfield performance I've ever seen. Wood lost the ball pretty much every time he received it, Green wasn't far behind him in those stakes, Clifton was utterly invisible on the right and then wasn't capable of controlling the ball when he was moved into the middle, Andrews looked knackered from the start and not one of them had the nouse to move into a position to receive the ball when the defenders were in possession.

We've just lost 2-1 to a team who only had 1 effort on target all game that I can remember! We managed a couple of decent moves in between lots of dross but we can't be that bad again too often this season and avoid the drop.

That post-match interview was worrying. Has he lost the plot already?

I've not seen a Town team devoid of enthusiasm, game plan and motivation since the last relegation season. I just hope that this is not a bad omen.

It's not just another bad day at the office because if the team worked in an office they'd have been fired.

Only two sides have got fewer points than us this season. That is shocking.

We have a seven point cushion right now and if we could pick up a couple of wins we will all sleep a little easier. But the way the team is playing and the clear lack of quality all over the pitch is deeply concerning. We definitely need more new faces in this window.
