All this Hullabaloo about the latest stinky overpriced nylon

[Deereyme66]

Some miserable elitists about these days. Don’t think the women’s game will mourn any viewer losses while it continues to grow.

[Deereyme66]

Might spot plenty of Campbell critics haunched over their phones awaiting his next phantom error to report. To be repeated by online sheep ad nauseum.

Pen shoot outs are often like that in the Women’s matches. Makes it more interesting. Very unpredictable

[Deereyme66]

Surely you can’t deny they deserved to equalise MKI? Still a great game, no?

You make it out as if “experts” at the club are always right, when they clearly aren’t. It was “experts” at the club that decided Jamie Vardy wasn’t worth signing. It was “experts” at the club that decided Charlie Goode was rubbish and sold him for peanuts, same with Cam Burgess (both went on the play in the Premier League). “Experts” at the club decided not to replace Matt Gilks and go with Rory Watson as no.1…that turned out a good decision didn’t it? I could go on…

They’re not infallible. But I’d still put faith in those at the club who work with players day in day out over supporters who don’t work with them and who’ve never worked at a professional level. Unless the current management aren’t performing and aren’t up to it, but I don’t think evidence shows that’s the case.

What a great game! Some really class moves from England second half. Deserved to get back in it. And what a dramatic penalty shoot out. Love to see it.

[Deereyme66]

How is a well placed chipped cross to the far post to an unmarked Alfreton player Campbell’s fault? What actually happened last night? Did one or two supporters out of the small amount there text someone it was Campbell’s fault, and someone posted it on X and others not there jumped in to fit their narrative? More than plausible based on video evidence. If he’s at fault, where do suggest he should have been positioned? If anything, blame defenders for having no one on the goalscorer. Based on the footage I’m not bloody surprised neither the Iron or Alfreton socials picked out this phantom error!

The lesser spotted ‘optimistic’ word.

There were some of us that were told we were living in cloud cuckoo land for suggesting we’d finish higher than mid table last season, possibly getting promoted. We were ridiculed in fact by so called experts who wrote a lot of words about it.

Players are often half asleep at 12:30

Lol. It was actually Daffodil Town in mid-Wales.

‘Ring up club shop and get your Butler Badge sent through the post. Get it over and done with.’

Got that last season. Awaiting delivery of the life sized cardboard cutout.

[Deereyme66]

The problem with option 1 (not a problem for me) is a vocal online majority are adamant he shouldn’t be given the time. Some are going as far as insulting the lad, and using it as an excuse to hit Butler with.

[Deereyme66]

There’s barely any posts about the new attacking drive, which seems to be bearing fruit and setting us up well.

[Deereyme66]

I understand and appreciate the concern. It’s the reaction that’s unfair on the lad and stifling his growth that I question.

‘totally agree with Deerey “it’s all that matters” what was that cesspit of a league.’

It was WG said that. My reaction was due to the irony of his post and also using ‘their’ incorrectly, which I found a little amusing.

Most ridiculous reaction on social media last night was the claim of cover up on SUFC X regarding Alfreton’s goal. Were Alfreton in on the conspiracy too?:

‘Trialist gets his second goal of pre season as he brings us level with a header from a left wing cross! YES!’

‘A well-placed cross into the area found the Reds trialist striker at the back post who unconventionally turned the ball home to make it 1-1.’

No mention of ‘flapping’ or it being Campbell’s fault in the match report

[Deereyme66]

One thing’s for sure – he’s not been given a fighting chance, so it’s difficult to judge how well he might perform in future competitive matches due to the impact of the doubters. He’s been court martialed by social media.

‘Fans know what they’re seeing with their own eye’

Aye, and fans, particularly a swath of our online contingent are quick to jump on the blame bandwagon. Admittedly, I haven’t seen him in pre-season friendlies yet, but how many supporters involved in the social media pile-on do you think have actually seen him in those games? Some of you lot have written him off already. What’s that doing for his confidence? No offence, but you’ve hardly got a good track record of being right.
