I wouldn’t call for his head after 3 games IA but he is rightly under a lot of scrutiny at present. The issues with the playing and coaching side are broader than 3 games, in my opinion. Fingers crossed Butler and the squad find the answers.

A few positives today. There are goals in the squad. They have the ability to play on the front foot and dictate the game, when they feel like it.

But cowardice, and trying to “Southgate” games often leaves us found out.
And I DO NOT blame the players for that.

[alcazar]

So, P3, W0, D1, L2 3-5, PTS 1
Not working is it Butler?

Time to go.

Definitely gone backwards this season,🙁

[alcazar]

Well he’s here, has played, and our league form is currently
P2 W0 D1 L1, Pts 1.

So what’s gone wrong?
And I wonder if many EFL clubs are still Scouting Butler lol

Jeez we love some scraps on our fish & chips.

Why clutter the cupboard even more than it is with bit part players.

Errr…because Butler is out of his depth?

[alcazar]

Hardly his fault.
Not featured has he?

[alcazar]

I’ll see Deerey’s daft one, and raise him 3-0 Eastleigh.

Not me. Care to elaborate?

See, you probably do remember, but don’t want to. It doesn’t fit your agenda.
End of the Iron vs Millwall playoff final after we won 3-2, to put us back in the Championship, which we’d quickly dropped out of two years previous, due to the then directors deliberately dismantling the team.
One director was overheard saying to another, “That’s torn it”.
Of course, in your world, it didn’t mean, “Oh no back to the costs of the Championship, I might actually have to put my hand in my pocket, instead of being a freeloader”.
But hey, what do I know?

Why on Earth would they want us to go down to a league with lower revenue, with attendances dropping, potential sponsor loss, the potential for semi-pro status and hindered ability to get to the revenues we can get to now? Yes, that would mean lower player wages, but we’d not get the other benefits and have higher running costs on things like the stadium relative to the other teams there.

But that needs them to “speculate to accumulate”, something I don’t remember this club doing, or at least, doing well.
Grabbing the first offer for a promising player?
Not stretching the budget to sign a promising player, who went on to be worth £millions?
Accepting old seats as part of a transfer deal?
Directors coming forward announcing that work done was a loan and can I have that transfer cash?
None of that fills me with the idea that we AREN’T satisfied being a big fish in a little pond.
But you happy clappers go on turning a blind eye.

Funniest thing about Rosie Jones is the teeth.
Was her dad Mr. Ed?

[alcazar]

Thanks Deerey.
But I’m yet to see an argument refuting my thoughts, just “don’t be daft”.
Anyone else remember the playoff final, and the two directors… “That’s torn it”.
But OF COURSE, no director would EVER wish us into a cheaper league… would they???

[alcazar]

What a shame.
I remember him as excellent.
I don’t think he was a Butler signing, and wasn’t favoured.
On we go, with Butler in charge🙁

I haven’t been on here for a long time but what is the issue with JB selection ? – he is miles more of a footballer than any of the options at CB and has pace and distribution. Ok he didn’t look great in the play off final but who did and I would argue in our best away performance of the season at Boreham Wood last year he was outstanding but still AB isn’t convinced ? – why ?

AB is the boss.
He knows.
And he knows that he knows. He’s never wrong.
Don’t question him, you’ll be told to **** off.

Ridiculous statement Alky. Even by your standards.

Because?

All Butler was interested in was getting distance into them didn’t matter about results (correct) the only thing that mattered was the 8th of August season start.
Maybe a change of tack next season needed.

I suspect him of trying to be everyone’s “friend”, so they all have a chance of playing.
How many times have we seen him make four substitutions at once, unbalancing the side and gifting the opposition a goal?
Why?
To give players game time?
Are they on game bonuses?

As far as shooting goes, last season those near where I sit were frustrated watching us apparently trying to walk the ball into the net, instead of having a poke at it.
Inevitably, the multitude of passes ended up with the opposition clearing the ball.
Even a fluffed shot can take a deflection in a crowded penalty area.

Poor goal to concede, totally avoidable. So we could have come away with a draw which we certainly didn’t deserve.

Team looked unbalanced. Pat Jones playing far too deep. Sloppy play from both fullbacks. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Barrows and Denton back against Eastleigh.

Pressure on Bultler if we don’t get three points next Saturday.

Pressure on Butler?
She’ll extend his contract again in case bigger clubs come sniffing 🙄🙄🙄

[alcazar]

Looks like being a long, long, season.

[alcazar]

Flashscore has us with only 19% possession 🙁
Please don’t tell me he’s trying to sit on a 0-0 ???

[alcazar]

You are.
I live rent free in your head😂😂😂

No bet. I never wager money.
But supporters will think so.

[alcazar]

And no mention of returning what she stole?
From rent payers. 😡
Not interested in your arse, Deerey, but your red panties are in a bunch.
