It was great situational awareness imo. Opposition stood around for a few minutes after the goal at a time when their eager to go at us again. Warne can get his message across to the players in the meantime in prep for the last 5 mins of the match.

Sorry if it came across condescending! (it's hard to tell sometimes)
Mel, in case your reading this thread, this is all 'allegedly'. Please don't sue me.

I'm all for piling on defenders at the end. 1 win in 9 or 10 at home I think? Stop the rot, gain some confidence. It didn't look like we had enough in the gas at the end to kill the game off with a 2nd goal unfortunately. In desperate need of pace in the side, but Warne knows this, trust the process.
Any potential signings watching in the crowd are more likely to come after a win, regardless of how ugly it was. If we dropped points, crowd could have got toxic like the last few games and they would think we're a ****show.

I disagree regarding recruiting players last summer, the players needed to be recruited last year to field a team of 18 regardless of manager or the system we were playing.
I think he is recruiting for his system but we've lost our 2 best players from last year in Knight & McGoldrick and we don't have any money to spend to replace them like for like. McGoldrick and Knight in this team, along with the signings we've made this summer, makes us instance contenders for top 2 IMO. I don't think he's happy losing both off these players but he had no choice. I think he needs to be given time/multiple windows to replace them.
Warne has a track record of getting out of League 1. I'm not sure what other expertise tops that.
I agree, the results and performances are crap at the minute but I think he needs time to sort it out and mould his team. We've got a rag tag bunch of players, which we needed to field a team of 18 last season. Most were signed on 2 year deals and will be out of contract at the end of the season. I personally think next summer will be the key transfer window, and hopefully by then, we will be any to spend some small nominal fees, within budget, on players.
If we sack Warne this season, we won't get Simpson or Carsley. We'll be dumpster diving for a Manager out of a job like Darren Moore. Clowes won't make to same mistake spending compo on a manager. But I personally hope he has a tonne more patience then Mad Mel.
I think Warne and the Club have made that classic GSE over-promise by saying we're going for promotion. I'm sure Warne wants that because he's clearly an optimist, but it's clearly created high expectations in the fan base. This team without Knight and McGoldrick never looked like a promotion capable team.
But I completely respect your opinion though, even if I disagree with most of your points. Half full vs half empty glasses and all that.

I want Warne to work out as you do but the sight of fans leaving stands after the 2nd Oxford goal went in is a bad sign as is booing the team. 
I hope Warne can sort it out but he’s often too Frank for his own good .
I have no idea what will happen .
I was encouraged by the 2nd half at Burton and we need to see a performance now against Fleetwood .
 

 

In fairness to our back 3 I think their performances would improve immeasurably if they had literally anyone at all to pass to. As it is the only CM we have who is capable of taking the ball under some pressure is fannying around as a number 10 alongside a winger who can only run in straight lines
Could stick Ruben Dias back there atm and he would look dog muck

If you seriously think there are a bountiful supply of quality players for free like McGoldrick sitting around by the phone waiting for PW to call them then you need to give a head a wobble.
McGoldrick had a really poor couple of seasons goal scoring wise before he joined us. 
We got really lucky with him.
We have two farthings to rub together but you expect PW and that guy from Oxford to magic a proven goalscorer for free on sensible wages out of their behinds. 

The New York Mets come out to Lazy Mary during their games, I think it would be great to play that at half time when the players return to the pitch. South standers can do their best drunk fake Italian, everyone else can happy clap and sway dance to help forget that drubbing we took in the first half... No lyrics needed, which helps out the older, more forgetful fans.
 
 

I didn’t even know he was ill 

Burton away strikes me as exactly the kind of game that Bradley was brought in for so it would be ironic if we left him out due to poor form.  I think stick with the back 3 and just drop the kamikaze tactics - at least until the side is more settled.
