    Particularly for 414, IFA and awaywego. Hopes this helps with your current crises…

    ‘Deerey you’ve spouted real some horse excrement on this platform but the suggestion that three old blokes (sorry chaps!) posting their honest assessment on the rubbish football we’ve seen, are somehow to blame for the shit show on Saturday is preposterous, even by your standards. If Butler remains in post and we therefore fail to be promoted it’s our fault for not clapping away like performing seals? Come off it!’

    Hold hard trigger! I didn’t say you were to blame for Saturday. You are contributing to a spiral of doom IMO though. The negativity is feeding the negativity. I’m sure you can understand that. I won’t resort to insults and hyperbole to try get my point across.

    ‘If you want to put your head in the sand and pretend Butler-ball is the
    best football you’ve ever seen and we will win the league at a canter, in the hope that the ‘prophecy will self-fulfill’ then be my guest. But that sounds like some new-age nonsense (some of) the youth of today practice, in order to avoid having to roll their sleeves up and do some graft!’

    Absolutely not saying that and you know it. I’ve acknowledged countless times it’s been very poor. But hey, distort the truth why don’t you.

    ‘Those of us that live on planet earth with functioning eye balls, have seen the turgid tripe been served up at GP under Butler this season and rightly have reason to be concerned. It seems you don’t attend many matches Deerey so perhaps your NLTV is malfunctioning and showing you a different game to the one the rest of us are watching down at GP, or maybe you are just living in cloud cuckoo land.’

    Is this the only way you can get your point across? Trump like slurs and insults? Speaks volumes. Have a sherry and simmer down old boy. You’ll burst a blood vessel. Are you old enough to remember Mr Angry from Purley? You’re sounding very much like him.

    There’s no ‘lack of action’ because there’s no action to be taken. I trust they are letting the coaching staff and players sort out the on pitch problems, as they should do. I’m not surprised in the slightest there’s no action as there’s no reason to react to armchair football managers telling them how to run the club.

    Everyone should be optimistic for our next match – why you ask. Well in recent post match interviews Mr Butler said they had a lot to work on. Well are having a nice long period to iron out all the errors and reset our approach.

    So get ready for the charge.

    This post should carry a Bru Warning:

    ‘Pessimists beware – Contains rare amounts of optimism. Careful around those green shoots now!’

    I see a fair bit of Clunan in your sideways passing, maybe not quite up to the job approach JI.

    We could have moved everything but match days to Ilkeston and many didn’t mind.

    What are the odds on 414 posting anything positive whilst Butler is in post? 1,000/1?

    Well I see the percentage game is going again on there. ‘95% of supporters agree with me’. Lol, gotta love the science involved. Bit like the Hilton era again when 99.9% of fans supported him, apparently, and would have fathered his children, given the opportunity.

    Just a matter of time before someone suggests it’s ‘all a ploy to stop us being promoted because we can’t afford it’ :)

    From the Facebook Group:

    ‘Would anybody be interested if I could sort out a question answers with the iron players,to see who is at fault for this current junk which we are watching’

    If that’s not a joke, it ought to be.

    Staggering. When has a Board meddling and undermining the manager / head coach ever ended well?

    ‘Final thought it is absolutely OK for supporters to question and disagree with decisions of the coaching staff.

    In my view it’s not OK to be abusive about them. Could we leave that to the idiots on the other side?’

    Think you’re referring to the Facebook Group? X is worse I think. At least some critics who post on both X and Bru, cut out the abuse on here. So much so, you’d be forgiven for thinking they’re different people!

    I think that’s a more reasoned post than your previous one. I don’t agree it’s the ‘perfect time’ though or that we ‘have a good amount of time’ with 11 days. Irrelevant anyway because it’s not happening. If it was going to, he’d have already been relieved of duties.

    You make it sound like you’re experienced in the football manager recruitment game. 11 days? Seriously doubt it. There’s a load of variables you’re not even considering. It’s not a game on a screen.

    Was Hill talismanic? Think he was regarded at such. Granted, mainly by himself but he arrived with an emperor’s new clothes fanfare didn’t he. Where for art thou miracle worker?

    Any appointment is a gamble NI. None have been a success since Alexander. And, any squad missing pivotal players like a Roberts would struggle.

    Not convinced sacking the coaching team will make a great deal of difference to eliminating defensive mistakes and lack of quality. Might get the holy grail 4-4-2 though and lose 4-3 more often

    So you’re saying the players aren’t good enough to adapt to playing different formations (as any player always should be) and some are playing out their top dollar contracts but you also think Butler / Schofield are the problem? All bases covered there. There’s a desperation to aportion blame for this terrible form and performances but I doubt anyone really knows how to fix it. But that doesn’t stop the supposed certainty of many claims.
