If we struggled in league 2, which would be highly likely, I can’t see where much extra gate revenue would come from, bar a few obvious bigger away followings, and given our home attendance may well drop with a lowly league position.

It felt a bit like when we played Notts County the season we were relegated into NLN, just witnessing an absolute gulf in quality.
The players we have are over achieving as a group to be where we are. If we can pick up enough points to stay in the playoffs we’ve got a chance. Personally I’d start Jones in goal next game to give Mahady a break and look to get a half decent centre half in on loan if that is possible.
Sounds like Evans is carrying an injury from what AB said on Humberside.1 user thanked author for this post.
“Ambition” – didn’t the Swannster initially have that… didn’t end well.
“Sensible wage budget” – wins you nowt in modern football. You need owners with very very big pockets and even bigger egos. It’s all about money, money, money!

Could it be a tactical switch? A few weeks ago the aim was 2nd/3rd to get a home SF. Has player power forced a decision to try for all away play off games?

So. Relegation form now but not going down this season.
Hmm.
At least we’ve had a decent gate twice recently.
How long before retained lists become the main topic on Bru?
Anyone know? – Did the new contract actually arrive on AB’s lap?1 user thanked author for this post.
I’ve a season ticket holder for over 30 years but because the lack of winning I am considering not renewing If teams bring in players I expect they would respond like Boston and Aldershot have or is it the management who can’t see want we want.I didn’t go last night because I knew what would happen

Ultimately it is about money but it needs a balanced approach, previous money bags owner went gung ho, we were out bidding teams for players like Bradford City with 15000 season ticket holders by offering more money, just ridiculous. Can’t see us progressing back into the EFL without some serious balanced investment which comes with at least a 5 year plan to improve the first team and structure some kind of youth team , at the moment we are where we are because of our financial situation, the begging bowl approach to funding a new pitch should tell us all that.

this run of form started when we sent players out on loan who are better than their replacements

If we have to send players out on loan because we can’t give them game time then our squad is too big, not too small!

I agree mick. One area where AB cannot escape criticism is his recruitment of loan players. I have always maintained that loanees should be guaramteed starters if they are to have the necessary impact. Westbrooke & TSF aside how many starts have we had from the likes of Eze, Chadwick, Hurst & Dausch.

As to players recalled, the main being Dec Howe. First Butler said it was Howe that wanted more game time.
Then Butler said he loaned him out because Howe had a bad attitude.
Awaywego mentions this Howe recall, Butler is so stubborn, i think Howe will be on loan for the rest of the season.
Butlers stubbornest is costing us.
wait for the boos AB..2 users thanked author for this post.

wait for the boos AB..When has he said that? I can’t believe this still needs to be said as well but he can’t be recalled during the initial 28-day loan. This has been the case for all players that have been sent out.

It’s not been said at all. Completely made up.
Plus in his post match interview about recalling loan players last night Butler said Howe’s initial month loan spell isn’t over yet, so let’s see after that. He also referred to him as ‘Dec’ not Howe, which didn’t intimate a bust up.
One player he said doesn’t want to come back right now because he can’t guarantee him starts. Sounds like Beck and that would be reasonable as most supporters wanted him away anyway.

Not posted in a few years so its nice to be back in the mix. Just a few things from last night i wasn’t surprised with the lineup as i think ewing looks a shadow of himself as lot of mentioned. Also i thought roberts was starved on the left wing when we know he likes to cut in from the right, for me whitehall spends alot of time trying to just wind defenders up and the ref instead of playing to his own strengths. Id personally bring howe back and get the ball more on the floor with two up front instead of howe being wasted out wide majority of the time. I think we also need to put jones in goal, mahady is very questionable to say the least at times but like watson came up with the odd decent save to put some credit in his bank as we saw last night in the first half and at rochdale. Hope your all well its been a while. UP THE F*CKING IRON

The Alty fan was only offering his take on the situation Deerey, NI, that is all to do with his club ocn their forum ya know much the same as we do, he realises that one club is lying, that’s true to say even you have to agree on that one.
Having seen my club over the years putting falsehoods out and been devious to say the least at times I agree his take on the issue.
If I’m wrong then I’ll be the first to say so.2 users thanked author for this post.
