Butler & Schofield would be fuming about their equaliser.
Absolute shambles defensively!1. CR10 didn’t mark / track / pick their thrower of the ball up. When the thrower received the ball back, he had all the space & time in the world to deliver the cross.
2. Their no11 was completely unmarked at the throw. JR Ewing was 10 yards off of him.
3. Four of our outfield players looking after one one of their players at the near post.
4. One of our outfield players watching three of their players at the back post.
5. One of our smaller players swamped by their 3 much taller players – match up like for like?
6. Evans is in no-mans land when the ball is delivered. Why on earth is he there?
7. Benehoun, no challenge / half challenge or ‘disruption’ to their player who received the ball from the thrower. Too easy!
8. Their receiving player is able to return the ball to the thrower so, so easily.
9. Benehoun then chases the lay off back to the initial player who threw the ball in. However, he jumps and turns his back as the ball is struck. Scared?
10. Don’t turn your back / side. Stand up, be big & brave.
11. Turn your back and a good player will make you look a complete donkey.
12. Good delivery by them.
13. Unbelievable ‘non-defending’ by us.
14. Perhaps Maison’s starting position should have been central on the goal line?
Case for the defence rests your honour.
Not guilty!1 user thanked author for this post.
We need to undertake a reality check as a supporter base.
We’re a newly promoted club who managed to survive a very close extinction episode.
We had large debts.
We probably still have some debt.
We do not have multi millionaires on the BoDs.
There’s a budget.
Another keeper will be signed.
Sit back.
Support.
Enjoy the ride.
At the end of the day… it’s only a game.
The club lives to fight another day.What if?
Give the boy a chance – I’ve a feeling we’ll be ‘over the moon with him’

Butler has said he’s open to entering the NL cup, 5 others already declined “if there’s a grubby pound to be had our club will seek it.
We dont need them extra games with the thread bare squad we have.Rene Artois:
Probably not the most reliable source (Reddit – Sept 2024):“NL teams will get £10k for participating.
£8k for a group win.
£4k for group draws.
£15k for knockout round wins.
£60k to winners.
£30k runners up.”4 group games, all at home v U21 teams.
QF, SF, FSo, if you are unlucky enough to play 4 and lose 4, then you only pocket the £10k participation fee.
Home team pockets all Att monies.We’ve no reserve or U18 team, so why not. A few might need game time?
