I can cope with “I don’t mind” but “a lot better than the Scunthorpe United kit” is very hard to take.

[cassidystash]

Some of us think it’s OK, I should point out btw that I last bought a replica shirt in the 80s, I think there’s an age (and girth) to stop, opinions vary on both.

There’s a size guide and an opportunity to try on for size before pre-ordering. Every chance to avoid any dodgy sizing if it exists.

[cassidystash]

I know you don’t like our new shirt but please tell me you’re joking. I’ll not be able to take you seriously in future, it’s a shocker. Credit to them for committing to wear it for 2 years though, should be more of that. Might make signing players difficult next summer knowing what they’ll be wearing.

[cassidystash]

I think they’ve done it in a hurry and got it wrong. Be interesting to see the bulk order when it comes. No doubt in my mind that the issue was the negotiating of the front of shirt sponsorship holding up manufacture.

[cassidystash]

So you buy to satisfy your fashion ideals not to support your club, fair enough.

No.

[cassidystash]

Well, against popular opinion it seems, I like the shirt design. The quality of material will be a key factor.

[cassidystash]

The CEO was brought in to take a load off Michelle I believe. I’m not “ITK” so, as an average supporter, I’m still waiting to find out what he’s done to benefit the club. Any offers?

[cassidystash]

They haven’t missed him yet.

[cassidystash]

Where can I find the image on which you base your opinion please?

[cassidystash]

Wrexham & Donny fans wouldn’t recognise him.

He was genuinely unlucky to have a dreadful side in front of him. That doesn’t make him a bad keeper.

You’re right, a poor defence doesn’t make him a bad keeper. He’s a bad keeper without needing any help from others.

Just seen this from NL Newspaper:-
“Scunthorpe United boss Andy Butler has urged the club’s supporters to harbour realistic expectations ahead of their return to the National League.”

I think his latest signing has ensured that nobodys expectations will be over ambitious!

No sign of Whitehall again. Injured or sold?

Thank you, sir.

He was taking the piss I believe.

I do sometimes, but not this time.

[cassidystash]

Didn’t Denton have a go there last season? Only option would be to play 2 unless Rene is happy with Beck as cover at CB. Surely can’t play 3 CBs with no cover, far to risky.

[cassidystash]

One of WG’s better posts I’d say.

[cassidystash]

Signing is the important word. Campbell is Butlers No1, why would a club loan out a bench warmer for a season? It makes no sense to me, we needed a second keeper for certain but I’ve always maintained that loans in should be certain/regular starters or nobody benefits.
(And I don’t rate Watson)

[cassidystash]

Looks like a back 5 could be reappearing to start the season.

That’s a very interesting signing

No doubt there will be several posts replacing the word “interesting.”
I’ll start with disappointing.

[cassidystash]

Hijacked thread?

[cassidystash]

Alan Knills’ “no better than we have” was what I understood. Was that ‘leaked’ by the anti-Knill brigade? Tell us more les.

[cassidystash]

TBF Butler did say that they had done no defensive work yet. Having said that, professional footballers, at any level, only need to look around to see that 4 on 1 near post and 1 on 3 back post needs adjustment.

Rene Artois

[cassidystash]

The bit where you said he was “not very good.” I’m not sure who, if anybody, said he was “one of our best ever” but it wasn’t me. He was comfortably the best keeper in NLN and deserves a chance in the EFL. His distribution was excellent, not perfect obviously but outstanding for NLN IMO.

Of course you’re entitled to your opinion of Fitzsimons, but you’re wrong. For comfirmation please see NLN team of the season.

Rene posted prize money details somewhere. I think if we lost every game we’d get £10k, maybe Rene will confirm.

[cassidystash]

On the positive side it will give other players game time as if it were a reserve game.
And there’s prize money.

As BPG would say,”Keith Houchen was right”

Nobody is expecting perfection, we’re a NL team, even PL keepers drop clangers.
What we must have, as a minimum, is two keepers fit for purpose.

Yes, his dipomatic reason was that he “wanted to play in front of big crowds”
So not for more money then? Yeh right!
