Flipping heck Richard’s actually turned up, well done lad.
Defence ain’t.

August 31, 2026 at 3:43 pm #327143Fuckin hell.
But the brakes on guys (Carlisle). LOL.
I’ve done 3-1
Let’s call it a day.
No more, please.
It could become very embarrassing this.1 user thanked author for this post.
August 31, 2026 at 3:43 pm #327144Never seen a keeper so slow at getting down to shots from outside the box
August 31, 2026 at 3:44 pm #327145Closing them down would help. This defence is relegation fodder and will take us down along with the likes of Solihull Moors.

August 31, 2026 at 3:48 pm #327146Side footing past the keeper from 25 yards.
Have to get a decent keeper, can’t Butler see this is going to cost him his job!3 users thanked author for this post.
August 31, 2026 at 3:49 pm #327147It was bad enough last year with the goalie situation, but to go into it again is criminal. Maybe if Butler didn’t treat any questioning as hostile, he might have got out of his locked in mindset and improved the defence and goalkeeper.

August 31, 2026 at 3:51 pm #327148Louis Jones is like Rory Watson, makes brilliant saves but very dodgy on low cross shots,also we need to ditch the claret shorts and socks, we have only got league points in sky blue shorts and socks

August 31, 2026 at 3:55 pm #327149Thinks it’s the distinct lack of quality and defensive frailty that’s resulting in our lack of points, rather than the colour of our shorts and socks.

August 31, 2026 at 3:57 pm #327150No goalie on the bench will upset a few.
Would probably have been on second half.
5 at the back certainly racks up the clean sheets.

August 31, 2026 at 4:00 pm #327151This keeper’s shit isnt he?
August 31, 2026 at 4:00 pm #327152Carlisle had 13 shots in the first half – whatever formation Butler thinks he is using it isn’t working.

August 31, 2026 at 4:03 pm #327153I’d sub the keeper at half time if only as a message to the fans.
I get it!August 31, 2026 at 4:07 pm #327154Richards may have scored but seriously what is he offering in midfield?? He’s lightweight, gets bullied, looks terrified on the ball and I haven’t seen him play a pass forward yet. It’s no wonder we’re getting carved open like a knife through butter.
Keeper situation should have been sorted in the summer of 2025! Fitz is bench warming in League 2…get him back.

August 31, 2026 at 4:07 pm #327155I know it’s still early in the season but this is very worrying. We simply cannot even think about dropping down to NLN again, it would be a disaster. Valid point re the keeper situation. How lucky were we to have the likes of Roberts and Fitzsimons in NLN? Cheat code players for that level and now were a level up we have less quality. Madness.

August 31, 2026 at 4:10 pm #327156When you start a season with 3 centre backs, one of whom you’re not prepared to play there then you might (do) have a problem.

August 31, 2026 at 4:28 pm #327158I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again:
Butler is out of his depth.
His stubbornness and arrogance are, once again, costing us points.
Time to move him on and get someone who knows this league.
And I don’t care HOW it’s paid for, because, as has been stated before, a drop back to NLN would be a disaster, both in terms of support and of finances.
Wake up directors.
He needs to go.
Don’t care HOW much Michelle likes him.1 user thanked author for this post.
