But if we’re losing whilst playing unattractive football the gates will inevitably take a hit wiping out any benefit of cost cutting.
Who said we’re going to play unattractive football whilst losing a lot of games?. Who’s to say we won’t win a lot of games and play good football whilst doing it ?
Even when we weren’t playing well there was always the possibility of Butterfield scoring a 30 yard screamer
Up until Christmas no doubt he was fantastic, but he started to slow down was countered by much worse players who were more physical and had more energy. At times he was a luxury player.
You’re comparing us to last season but we were after too nice to play against and lacked fight and energy. The mentality/fitness levels and fight were lacking at times last season which culminated in us being out ran and out fought by part time players.
How many times did we come back last season from a losing position, was it just on the two occasions ?
I’d much rather take a less “pretty team” in a footballing sense and swop that for a more solid, hardworking one which is going to dig in more but who can also play a bit.
Tamworth last season were dreadful, they were very well drilled, fit and apart from 2 maybe 3 standout players they were fairly poor and yet they romped the league.
