But who's out there as a manager, and that still leaves a bunch of players who've just stopped playing.

If we did sack him (which we won’t) then Frail will get the job.

What happens when someone is promoted above their ability and given a blank cheque for several transfer windows? 

This is what happens. A massive and aimless squad who can barely muster more than 30% possession most games.

We’re going nowhere under Kettlewell, except down the table and decreasing our bank balance.

Don’t know where our next win comes from, why so many subs when we are winning a tight game, baffling. Every team in the league play better football than we do, shouldn’t have gave him the window

are they not both on rolling contracts? Just bin both and get someone new in with the promise at the end of the season they can have a clear out of just about every player and bring in their own players.

What do you expect?

We’re only a wee club punching way above our weight.

And Kettlewell got us to a Semi Final

 

 

 

 

But on a serious note you are spot on.

It was a good header to clear the ball and Davor ambled out to try and close down. He didn't. Another piece of deadwood. Oh and it was Tombola football again. Subbed half the team. Same as last week. The last manager to end up doing that was Stevie Hammell and you know how that ended.

Sadly your right,I mind you predicted kettlewell would get the job before anybody else.if and when kettlewell goes then frail should be out the door with him,it's both of them are none of them.

For those at the game, what formation did we start with? 

From the comments, it’s seems that the first half was okay, but that the second half was a bit of mess as we tried and failed to protect the lead.

The usual formation but with Sparrow at RWB (he played well to be fair) SOD at RCB and Kaleta at LWB.

Definitely were okay (wouldn't go as far as good) in the 1st half, totally lost it in the 2nd.

Im kinda done here

 

SK constantly moaning about how small a budget he has yet he has managed to put a squad of about 2000 together and then must give the tactics of:-

Plan A - smash the ball forward

Plan B - try and hit it longer

Plan C - try to go even longer

 

Utterly horrid horrid football, I now dont even look forward to a Saturday anymore and its starting to annoy me now

Very poor setup/tactics, Paton is never a starter and wee davor is at best a sub for a five-a-side. Needs to be change SK has delivered nothing for months that shows any sort of confidence, lost the dressing room and the fans

Well I hope he's not lost the dressing room if he has there's some guys in that dressing room who have now fell out with 4 managers. And those players should perhaps be moved on

You could be right there are definitely a few in the squad that need to either have a long hard look at themselves or get punted

So it was more of the back 5 and with players playing out of position. Classic Kettlewell. What an idiot.

There can't be many left that's played under the last 4 managers,if kettlewell has lost the dressing room that's on him,today is the perfect example,he's asking defenders to constantly keep coming under pressure cause he has zero interest in playing any forward thinking football,he can't keep asking that when we aren't great at defending at the best of times,I really hope it's true that casey had a pop at kettlewell cause him and the rest would have every right too
