Out played again by the Bucks .. sussed us out n did a proper job on us ..dire performance again little desire or effort deserved nothing n thats what they got.
AB post match interview was just the same as usual, at least not a mention of clean sheets (remember them 9 in 3 conceded) the sound bites are becoming less as toppa the league has become just a fleeting memory… to be replace by , we are still up there … until we are mid table that is.

Lots of comments remarking that a few players showed little desire or effort .. maybe AB has lost the dressing room with his obsession for this formation … pretty obvious for a while hes got favourites which more than often ends in tears. .

the term for this signing if it is Luke Williams is … PANIC BUYING.. AB and LT should both be out the door instead of allowing them to waste anymore money on duffers.

Having had a pub/restaurant in the past i concur with many points made on this thread .. catering can be a nightmare business so much so i always steered clear and took care of the bar side of the biz.
I aint no expert but IMO any food menu should be kept as small as possible this more so with the time restraints associated with events including football, most menu items can be pre prepared ie pies etc in a warmer ready to go same with the burger patties,hot dogs and chips so orders just need assembling.
Better to do only a few things spot on then have a huge menu choice leading to staff confusion customer back up, a sub standard product and increased waste.
Pie , SS roll , Pasty
Sides Chips with Peas or beans
GravyBurger
Hot DogDrinks
Soft drinks in cans
Tea Coffee BovrilNo need for any desserts .. the Cookie ppl cover that (if still there) or just sell stuff like Mars, Snickers etc or even an SUFC Branded choc bar
All sounds too easy but it isnt and probably the reason the club is struggling with it and no one has taken the catering gig on at AAGP since the SG had a go.

Just listened to the AB post match interview it all sounded very similar to previous so cant see how things are improving or we are learning. Most interestingly he made a comment that until the 70th minute then we got more into it going forward isnt that when we changed to 442 ? it really is that simple anf there is your proof Andy so bite the bullet and change or its all gonna go pear shaped.
Makes the decision to extend his contract even more ludicrous.

Waking up to another dire performance , out played AGAIN ..woeful
These new signings need to happen NOW as a couple more duff performances and we could be down to 10th and we all can see Buxton on Saturday are gonna come and do a Radcliffe same as they did last season.
If AB doesnt see the light and drop this formation we are toast .. attendances will plummet as fans dont want to watch dross football they need entertainment and excitement and recently its been LESS “fun” than a visit to the clap clinic.

Iron414 wrote:-“There’s no denying the recruitment has been really poor. Butler has recruited for the 5-3-2 but the players he’s brought in have all failed to make the cut.”This is what I find hard to understand. Butler wants to play with WBs, we didn’t have any when he took over and we didn’t sign any. So we have 3 FBs trying to be WBs and 3CMs that barely get a look in. Makes the recruitment seem even more bizarre, was 3-5-2 not the recruiters plan?
Good point cass .. being as no WBS were signed can we assume AB thinks that Barrows , Denton and Kelly are wing backs because they appear not to be.
I dont get why there hasnt been any activity in the loan market for a couple of players ..especially a striker when it was confirmed by Michelle and Mr Sharp at the fans forum money was there if needed…maybe cant find anyone suitable ?? lets just hope who ever does come in its soon and they are better than whats already arrived.

Thanks to Butler whoever does end up coming in down the line “which is a forgone conclusion in my eyes” he/they are going to have to ship out say Shrimpton, Rowley and permacrock Law to get wide players in.
I still think we’re a striker short too. This squad needs balancing up. It’s a wonder Butler didn’t think to himself when he got those players in to play this formation, what happens if it doesn’t work !
Butler’s well and truly backed himself into a corner because he has no other alternative but to play this 5 at the back due to lack of options out wide.
Next appointment we need a manager from this level with experience who knows who and what it takes to get out this division. We need to stop this in house managerial rubbish. It worked with Adkins, but I’d rather we didn’t go down this route again.
Who’s it going to be next ?……Scunny bunny, toilet cleaner, pint puller from the Iron Bar ?
Agree with just about all of that WGs except i cant see AB getting the boot anytime soon regardless where we finish and more so even in the event of a poor run of form which arguably we are in now .. FWIW IMO whilst we are in and around the top and play offs no way hes going no where however poor the performances.

Without doubt the players brought in so far (who ever identified them as worth a punt AB LT ?) have been really poor.
Charlton suspended and injured twice
Rowley ..why ? never picked
Fish eager young lad given little chance has had one good game
Brogan benchwarmer
Nicolson first few games looked a decent signing but all gone pear shaped recently and poor on numerous levels
Shrimpton resigned why? never pickedNot being a doom n gloom merchant but i just cant see us getting promoted if AB doesnt change his chosen formation which sadly appears to be cast in stone .. expect to see the odd exceptional performance now n then Brackley, Kiddy and Farsley but other than those its been really negative boring and totally underwhelming and IMO so lucky to still be top.
Football is supposed to be entertaining trilling making fans eager to return for more alas whats being served up at the moment especially at home will drive fans away …no highlights vid of Radcliffe so far as probably werent any except the Fitz penalty save.
Worryingly ABs post match interview wasnt a very inspiring listen how can a manager be happy with that …”Radcliffe are a good well organized side” IT THE RELEGATION ZONE .. i stopped listening a couple of minutes in before the customary “still top ov the league” sound bite
Sticking with my pre season prediction of finishing 7-10th and even then no way AB will be sacked hes here to stay lets just hope he sees the light and changes this terrible system.

Draw or not today was really poor .. WE WERE AT HOME against a side who did a job on us
words to describe how we are
* INNCONSISTANT
overly DEFENSIVE
* UNCONVINCING
POOR
Lucky to be topBut lets wait for the post match usual warbling ..like a claret n blue parrot !!

AR as i predicted , no way a walk over 4 or 5 nil .. lucky not the loose in a game which was a total let down .. why so defensive at home ?? oh i forgot if you done concede you don lose bollocks , so this must be ok then ?
