I have received good info from ‘an invisible person’ who has been close to the team that cliques are developing and that fallouts are plentiful.

There’s another position on the pitch – which – if memory serves, was called ‘the winger.’ Usually smallish, quick and tricky, they used to head towards the by-line and cross a ball into the six yard box and would often cause mayhem.
Anyone have recollections of this now extinct breed of footballer?3 users thanked author for this post.
Best passer in the defence – last season.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t he playing in a different position now?
Didn’t he look his normal self in the recent but short-lived, back 4?4 users thanked author for this post.
1) I couldn’t believe that Butler had changed back to a failing system.
Okay – we began by pushing the WBs further forward but that soon reverted to the normal tripe.
2) Beck is a jewel. Let us not spend whole games lumping 40 yard balls into his general direction, though.
3) Why have ‘forward players’ not been learning how to work off Beck? Don’t they do training any more?
4) That game was execrable. Even that source of countless (clean but damning) adjectives – Mrs Lesgeo – was left utterly speechless. She ain’t going back in a hurry which means that neither am I!
5) I have tried to support AB; as someone who has sacked people in past years – I gave him advice on Bru. (And don’t believe managers, leaders, directors, CEOs etc who claim not to read reviews of what they are doing. They are the first to!)
6) Butler’s team selection was bonkers. I won’t even bother to explain that remark.
7) We were so badly prepared we ceded the entire control of the game to a pub team with attitude. This is a managerial failure in spades.
8) I have criticised long and often for two months but today was my final day of tolerance. BUTLER OUT! Get thee hence!
9) The club is at a crossroads where its fan base is concerned. Keep Butler – lose many fans. Sack him and we may be able to stop the rot.
10) Two year contract? – If you have any honour, Andy you will leave without demanding compensation.8 users thanked author for this post.
A dull performance, indeed.
One upside – I think that Will looks to be playing better. (Still not as good as last year, though.)
Is it me or are we getting more out of Denton too?
I like Beck but even so, far too much lumping the ball upfield to him.1 user thanked author for this post.
Mrs Lesgeo has stated that the pictures on DAZN were about the same as previously.
She-who-must-be-listened-to has spoken.
That is the end of the matter.2 users thanked author for this post.
Weather forecast suggests that the Darlo game will be on. Conditions okay.

If he tries to put ‘his own original stamp’ on teams he will lose this job.
Learn, change and listen – he might well survive and even prosper.
Mr Schofield – are you advising him?
Please use your experience – we are seeing too little evidence.
If today hasn’t proved that the naysayers had a pretty good case what will?
I am sure that pretty much all fans were delighted with Andy for the first time in weeks. Sensible structure, playing the right players.4 users thanked author for this post.
We have a pretty long recent history of not bringing players on.

An alternative way to reach an identical conclusion is that the results at the moment are simply dreadful.
There. I didn’t even mention ‘fo……..ns’.3 users thanked author for this post.
That’s the defence which will surely work better than the others, Cass.
Denton however, was better than Kelly last year. In a changed setup – he may still prove to be the excellent LB we witnessed last season.1 user thanked author for this post.
