    Nevermind 11, I’d settle for knowing his best 16.

    Why does he insist on taking Butterfield off on 75 minutes of every match.Lost what little control of the match we had from then on.

    Plans obviously disrupted by the loss of Bunker, Beestin and B-RE but I’m still a fan of picking your best 11 players and using a system that fits them. Choosing your set up first and then picking players to fit that leaves better players benched and probably brassed off. Subbing Butterfield puzzles me too.

    Anyone else thinks he looks a bit like UB40’s singer?

    I reckon that Butterfield will stay. Reason? – I reckon that he’s knackered after 75 minutes.

    Under contract till 2024 so would need a fee, 75 mins is fine for the class act you get.

    Could he make 90mins a league lower? I’d like to think so.

    According to a Hilton interview a few weeks ago only Chapman and Elliott are contracted beyond this season, the rest are “playing for contracts.”
    Does anybody at the club know what is going on, conflicting information in so many areas, a bit of honesty/clarification wouldn’t go amiss!

    If fit, he could really flourish in NLN

    Was he talking about the players brought in since the takeover, or the whole squad?

    I’d have thought the former.

    Your right Cass he was once described as Pirlo esque.or was it he thought he was Pirlo, knocked the confidence and stuffing out of the team from which we never recovered, doesn’t score enough f ing tosser imo.

    Chappo n Elliot both fine to stay IMO .. as for the rest if i was pressed to say 3 more to stay on merit or ability Shrimpton , Butters possibly Ogle and Wilson (if his attitude isnt in question as it appeared at Gateshead)

    If that happens and we keep any more than 6 from the current squad it will be a tough season , i would much rather see a bargain basement clearance sale and a total rebuild of biblical proportions, and im sure JD would welcome any divine help from above if forthcoming.

    Beestin is like Hallam, Discarded by Donny for being a crock, i’d give Shrimpton a new deal over him and let the “Silky midfielder” find another club.

    Does Jimbob have his UEFA A badge.

    Not a requirement at the level he was at.
    The only qualification required to manage a non-league team is the UEFA Level 1.

    We are going down and we need to stick with a manager for more than half a season have we not learned anything from the swann era? How long have the new players had to gel with each other a few weeks? The club needs stability and we can only do that by starting afresh next season with a proper pre season and a clearout of the players who have had a losing mentality over the last few seasons! Chopping and changing the manager has in part got us to this stage along with buying bottom of the barrel players who no one else wanted, stuck with Jimmy and see how we get on in NLN.

    Confidence breeds confidence.
    Let’s go and smash Buxton on Saturday.
    We should be aiming for a minimum of three goals a game at this level.
    Let’s inject fear in to those that take the battlefield against us!

    Absolutely! Someone is going to get a tonking soon and not just 4-0 or 4-1 it’s going to be 7/8 or 9, the amount of chances we had first half last night we could have quite easily been 6 or 7 up at half time, it’s an absolute joy to watch.
