Cheap options can be the only answer.
Clearly not! I feel it’s the saga that will keep on giving until Butler is gone. This is Campbell’s 3rd season with us which is bizarre. Jones was given a go last season after Mahady dropped multiple clangers and Campbell was seemingly frozen out after returning from injury and sent out on loan. Jones did OK but nothing to suggest that he could take us to the next level. How both keepers got new contracts in the summer is beyond me.
If that’s the case, funds could have been saved signing less RBs. I get that it’s Butler’s budget but surely that’s overseen and signings approved by the Board? I can’t understand what convincing argument was used for signing so many RBs whilst leaving a very questionable couple of GKs in place.

alcy tries so hard to conform but in the end he just can’t help himself, lol.
Nah.
Never been a conformist.
And wear my heart on my sleeve.
Didn’t endear me to a couple of bosses, since if I think someone is a tosser, they know it
Which bosses?
‘I’ll take regional football’
And you are indeed insane awaywego.

Are we in danger of dropping a league after just three games in?, rather knee jerk IMO unless some have a set agenda against the current manager
You out don’t need an agenda about Butler to understand the signs are not looking good.

The Directors should always take a holistic approach to the financial pros and cons of keeping or sacking any manager. It could be financially detrimental to keep a failing manager for too long to save money in the short term whilst risking plummeting gates and relegation to NLN, which I assume would be financially worse in the long run

Out of his depth.
Couldn’t even manage Donny Rovers Ladies.
Get him gone before it’s too late.
NLN again would be a disaster, and just might spell THE END.
He’ll be listening on Friday night if you tell it him. Go on, we could do with some Bhuna style entertainment.
I don’t think 10 games in is too late should things not improve substantially

He’s never been the no.1 with us Rivers.
There is still time for him and Butler to sort out the mess. There were enough decent players out there yesterday, on and off, to form a decent starting 11. Would need to keep Parker and Gale though (not sure how long their loans are) and really ought to be doing everything to bring a decent all round keeper to shore up the shaky defence.

Only 2 natural CB’S at the club. 4 natural left wingers. 5 players who can play RB. GK position not sorted out due to Butler’s famous stubbornness. Short up top and lacking any quality in CM with Richards not adding anything.
Thinking back to previous managers, has there ever been a more shambolic pre season and player recruitment drive than what we’ve witnessed this season ?
I personally can’t think of one.
If Whitehall can find his mojo again, and with Gale and Parker, I don’t think we’re too shabby up top.

The so called ‘terror twins’ are frighteningly abject at the moment
