Whitehall got some crap service yesterday…………..I thought Whitehall’s play improved when Butterfield and Gale came on. Principally because one of the centre backs then had to plug the holes that Gale kept popping up into. Beestin should have been doing this. The management team got it wrong asking him to defend Westbrooke rather than let him play his more natural game!
So the 1st game and the set up is to deal with them ? Targeting yields mediocrity.
Open at home for 1st game, gate of 5111 and it should have been a simple instruction – get at them as quickly as possible at every opportunity but nothing learned from last season I fear.

If one is not an ‘Insider’ will one be allowed to be really engaged with the thought processes of Mr Butler.

That 5 or more at the back will happen – you can sense he has not learned a thing !
And yes why another Right Back ? There must be other trialists in anything but RB wanting an opportunity.

There’s also this “tap a goal kick to the keeper” tactic that’s emerged. Just because you can do it now doesn’t mean you have to. If our NL players see either of these things and try to copy, forgetting they’re NL for a reason, it’s just a disaster waiting to happen. As somebody said earlier ” if the ball is in the opposition half they’re unlikely to score.”
The late Ron Ashman used to say pre-match “If we have the ball in their penalty area they cannot score in our goal”.
And our passing over recent seasons has not been of a consistent acceptable standard. That must be our aim if we want to move up the leagues.

TT said they set up as a 442 yet the journo’s say it was a 4231.
The one country who caused Argentina problems was Cabo Verde and they played a 442.
Tuchel subs were shocking and negative, it invites trouble and they got it.Don’t rate TT as a manager, never did.

To play devil’s advocate, did anyone raise these “second class citizen” claims when we were in the EFL? For those with short memories there was a thing called IronPlayer which was in force for over 10 years. You could only watch full match highlights and video interviews if you paid the annual subscription. Heck, if you were an out-of-towner you could only listen to the live radio commentary if you subscribed!
But all club information was to ALL supporters at the same time. I never had iPlayer I did not feel I lost out.
But if we are about to sign or sell a player then all supporters should see the same press releases at the same time.Will do Sir.
