Does it matter?

March 19, 2025 at 9:29 am #300046I believe it’s an immediate penalty for managers; players have to serve 7 days after the carding.
So, he’ll be in the Directors Seats on Saturday.March 19, 2025 at 9:51 am #300047Got what we deserved unfortunately; good side kiddy and they outplayed us in large spells.
Referee was another numpty who completely lost the game, best thing about when we eventually leave this league will be seeing the back of those clowns.
However, we’ve Been a great run and coped with the Whitehall injury better than expected, we struggle so much without him in the final third though and nothing really seems to knit together.
Onwards to Saturday in what now feels like a must win

… to be replaced with another posse of clowns.

You have to try and look at it positively. When Whitehall got injured a lot of people probably expected our season to implode… It hasn’t. Last night was a setback, not an apocalypse.

March 19, 2025 at 10:17 am #300050Schofield almost took exception a couple things during the post-match interview with Ollie on BBC Humberside, but all in all he was balanced and philosophical and relatively good-humoured.
“Balanced, philosophical and good humoured” – you missed out delusional!
Overall the game was even – B******s!! We were completely outplayed.
We had the best chances to score – I must have missed all the chances we had that were better than 2 free headers in front of goal from inside the 6 yard box.March 19, 2025 at 10:24 am #300051Schofield almost took exception a couple things during the post-match interview with Ollie on BBC Humberside, but all in all he was balanced and philosophical and relatively good-humoured.

Wins have disguised poor performances against poor teams in recent weeks. PE Teacher Andrew has not been able to create a team who show dominance against the better teams, and frankly we haven’t played well for some time. Relying on Roberts, who seemed last night to be playing inside, masks poor recruitment, bad game management, and increasingly baffling decisions.
I will of course be delighted if we beat Chester on Saturday, but remain unconvinced by some distance.

I disagree with your disagreement! I think Schofield was right that on the whole the game was about even, there were chances for both sides. But I’m not sure he was right in saying our chances were best. A couple of Kidderminster’s chances were blatant.

March 19, 2025 at 11:25 am #300058Schofield was a tad delusional…claimed Fitz never had a save to make but their keeper had “5 or 6”. Their keeper literally had one save to make from Carlton’s header in the 2nd half…that was it!
March 19, 2025 at 12:09 pm #300059Thing is when Beestin and Whitehall are out our only real creative player is Roberts, so if he’s off colour or marked out of it we’re completely screwed.
When we have Whitehall and Beestin the opposition have a lot more to stop. Roberts has not been at it lately which makes matters worse.
Butler last night reverted back to the old Butler. Beck is limited but least he won everything in the air and caused them trouble, yet takes him off and sticks Boyce up there. Carlton was pretty poor and yet never brought on Mo to freshen it up.
Butler never changed it either, he could have quite easily have gone two up top and partnered Beestin with Beck and brought Fadera on out wide and have him and roberts out wide.
Completely clueless last night and seemed to freeze under the pressure.
We need Beestin and Whitehall back A.S.A.P
March 19, 2025 at 12:22 pm #300060It seems we only use 5 subs to “manage the game” although Butler insists his subs influence the game. Both subs last night were due to injuries. Hard to see how Williams & Fedora could have influence being unused, an ideal situation for 20 minutes of Mo I’d’ve thought.
March 19, 2025 at 12:29 pm #300062Mo is one of the only other players in this squad who’s capable of pulling something out of the bag and yet he’s on the bench. Carlton was pretty poor and yet kept him on.
I was confused to say the least. Why take Beck off and put Boyce up top for the last 10 minutes ?. That made no sense whatsoever.

Why doesn’t Schofield offer input when these obvious adjustments aren’t made. Headscratcher.

You’re presuming he doesn’t.
March 19, 2025 at 1:49 pm #300068Can’t say to much didn’t watch the game, but from what has been said we appeared lack luster again, could have made a real statement for the title by going 5 clear and getting rid of kiddie altogether in the process, makes Saturday game win or bust imo.
No biggie if we win on Saturday another 4 wins after that should see us win the title anything less then playoffs it will be.
Goes without saying not happy with Butler he’s getting the bare minimum out of his squad and every game seems a trial,, not many games are enjoyable but at least we’ve being getting results mainly due to the piss poor opposition, last night losing 1-0 and putting Boyce on, and not Mo or Williams who are more creative players in my eyes unbelievable, fail to see where he thought doing that would get us an equalizer.
Promotion or not I hope he goes (though I do know if we do he won’t) if only for his shite recruitment.1 user thanked author for this post.
