Not that long ago we were discussing tactics employed in the League 1 playoff semi.
For ‘discussing tactics’ read ‘moaning about Alexander, Swann and contracts’
You mean the home game when Alexander fielded a negative team and when he decided with 25mins left “when the game was pretty much over” to find courage he went more attacking and we were clearly the best team on that pitch and ran them ragged.
Still say to this day if we would have gone more positive from the start we would have won that match. That was shameful.

Whoever ends up in charge in the future won’t last long before the world class tacticians on here start wagging their fingers and suggesting a ‘better’ way to coach
There is only you out the whole fanbase who seems content with Butler’s formation. Everybody else must be wrong, Deerey.

Butler had the last say on all transfers so not all Turnbull’s fault. Recruitment still been crap though for some time now.
I think Michelle said AB HAS the final say, possibly implying that he didn’t whrn LT was here?
I thought she said that Butler HAD the final say. Either way the recruitment has been poor for some time.

Appears the players have lost faith in Butlers formation and have subsequently lost faith in Butler because it’s him that causing them to struggle so much.
I could very well be wrong, but that what it looks like to me.

If he wants to get the best out of Beck then play him up top with Whitehall when fit and a couple of wingers
Going by what Butler said pre and post match, it will be Whitehall and Beck up front in the same formation. If Butler was going to change it and go with Roberts and Carlton out wide, he would have done it Yesterday.
Yesterday was the perfect time to try something new, but seems he has no intention of changing it up. Only way he’ll change it up is if pressure is put on him to change formation from higher up, but apart from that scenario coming about, I can’t see him deviating from this formation.
I doubt it, Leamington I think are undefeated at home and couple that with some players look like they’re not playing for Butler, I can’t see us winning that. A draw at best.

He needs a midfielder needs a formation change
We all know what he needs, but he seemingly doesn’t want change nor thinks he needs it. As said before, he’ll field this formation until he’s fired.

I’ve said numerous times that Butler is worse than Dean was. I never rated Dean, but he was still a better manager than Butler. Butler’s absolutely clueless. I’d put him on par with Knill.
Best way of describing Butler is that he’s the Tomi Ameobi of football managers.

This more than just today’s defeat iron-awe, Butler is well and truly out of his depth. A large part of it is this formation and he won’t stop fielding it until he’s fired. Butler could have another 2 wingers walk through the door and he’d still do exactly the same and it’s this blind stubbornness which is costing us.
