Much like the Marine game, take the win but we made hard work of it and it was another awful watch. Slightly concerning that we are struggling to play against Marine and Market Needham who are both newly promoted and expected to be relegation fodder this season. Seems ‘Butlerball’ is ugly, direct with no intent to play with any quality. Much like a blueprint of Tamworth and maybe (hopefully) it will work to get us out of this pub league but note that Tamworth are struggling with their style of play at NL level. We have players that are technically good enough to keep possession and play football so can only assume the hoofball is an instruction from the manager. We didn’t deserve the three points but we got lucky so we take what we can. Agree with Lesgo’s point regarding gates though if we continue with this route 1 football. Whilst we are getting the results the crowds will turn up in numbers but when our luck runs out if we lose playing as dreadfully as last night those numbers will drop like a stone.
