To be fair, this is the third game now where we have had a more attacking outlook and decent spells, with today being the best. Granted, Rushall and Farsley are weaker sides at this level and we did lose at Southport, but that was more down to lapses in concentration, which went beyond Butler’s control
Maybe this has shown that Butler does have the capacity to change things. One thing I have been impressed with is seeing the full backs make more forward runs, which was hindering us before, and is a part as to why we’re having more success up front. Maybe it will be a false dawn and Butler won’t succeed, but I don’t think anyone really knows that.
One thing’s for sure, for me, is that a month’s blip shouldn’t mean losing all hope and making certain judgments on the capability of the manager or his ability to change things after a bad spell.
