He literally can't/won't. Did you not get the significance of him taking a striker off for a striker/like for like subs when we were 3-0 down at Oxford? That was him fully showing that he'd rather treat the rest of a competitive game as a training match than adapt anything and throw the kitchen sink at them. I don't think there's another manager in the world that doesn't throw the kitchen sink at them there, probably not even Brendan, so we've managed to find the one manager more stubborn than him.

They're going to ride him until the wheels fully fall off aren't they? He's as good as admitted that he'd rather we be relegated out of existence than adapt his style in any way, so even though it inevitably ends in tears, we better hope it clicks for him, at this level at least...

Looked good up until the sending off, but essentially lost to a poor and out of form 10 man Barnsley after that. Heinous subs again. This way of playing makes even the worst of teams look dangerous, because we inevitably gift them free goes at goal on multiple occasions during the game that they could never have created themselves. 😏

Getting pressed by 10 man Barnsley 😆🤮

If McArthy just stood up straight it would have bounced off his shoulder...

Jesus. H. Christ!

Need to see that again. Looked like a great tackle by 80s standards. Couldn't tell if his feet were off the ground when he connected with Thomas though?

All is forgiven ref 😂

Slow motion header from Braybrooke 😂 Nice move though.

Wout Faes still think he's a Belgian international doesn't he. In reality is playing like the worst CB in League One after being given his 1300th chance not to soil himself. As usual I was sat waiting for him to throw his hands up at everyone but himself after giving that ball away on the edge of our penalty area there.

Insane ball from Braybrooke. These kids should have been playing in the Prem, let alone last season...

Really nice goal. Page the main baller as usual.

Good effort to sign 3 3rd choice goalkeepers in one season.

Could be the difference maker on his own. I had very little faith they were going to sign a 15/20+ goal striker, but it looks like they may have, which potentially changes everything. Relegation no longer my expectation if he's started as he means to go on. 🤞🙏🍀

Unreal. Worst defence we've ever had multiplied by the worst defensive coach we've ever had. Should have been hit for 6 at least. In positive news at least Lundstram & Riis are now 2 more nailed on starters and Cullen is off the mark.

Hopefully Kanga can use his head as no one else we have can 🙏

****ing heinous!

Absolute sitter missed again. They should be out of sight by now. We'd have shipped more than 9 if this was against Southampton. Not sure if I'm now more worried that we might still win when we don't even slightly deserve it. 😂

To be fair to McCarthy, he's probably just as pissed off as us that he is playing. The most obvious 3rd choice keeper ever, that should be playing golf and putting his feet up on the bench for a living, like he has gotten used to for the last 4 seasons.

To a point, but they're basically covering no space. Just anonymous. Ghost-like.

Should have been level. Wish I could say it was unbelievable, but it's not. We need new defensive coaches yesterday.

Genuinely just play midfielders in defence. None of them can defend anyway so at least we can improve the passing bullshit.

He's not necessarily put a foot wrong, just our defence in general has been none existent, so I'm hoping he can stamp his authority a bit more and separate himself as our first competent CB.

Lundstram as well! Get in!

Imagine having an actual striker. 🫨
