Re: Barrow (A) : Sun May 07, 2023 5:35 pm  
Interesting, just listened to Mark Dunning speaking to Mick Gledhill on Soundcloud just after the Barrow debacle
Seems he's "spewing" about the performance. I don't reckon there'll be much in the way of "arms around each other" this week. It might just be that he's had enough after that 2nd half performance.
I really don't know how he can stay in the position after his outburst. The players are clearly not prepared to perform by the book for him, and he seems to be at the point of acceptance that something will need to change. Since he can't change the whole team, that only leaves a falling on the sword scenario for Mr. Dunning IMHO

I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

This is the issue I highlighted when Dunning got the job he can be as upset as he wants but he doesn't have the reputation or experience to enforce this.

Thank you.

Mark Dunning does sound as he described i.e. genuinely furious.

At least he's dispensed with the platitudes and we're hearing a bit of passion, as opposed to the usual vanilla responses. All seems rather untenable now though.

I’d agree. Almost like a parting shot to the players who have consistently underperformed costing him his job.

Too little to late for Dunning. Should have tried this authority after the York game. At least the fans would have seen a bit of passion and anger. No good now. Goodbye.

So much for the change in culture. Not sure Nigels business model of relying on loans is the answer. Expect Dunning is just a pawn in game of life.
