Robbie Savage will have ‘em all scratching their heads about False Nine four, A Number 8, a number 10, “A Six with a Diamond” , etc!!!….   Msg to SC, Don’t ever consider RS for Manager!!!  Watch Leverkusen and see what wins every game!

Re his recruitment - Hopefully he knows that ability is the main requirement, plus speed off the mark…..  We shall see….

Ugly football, if that’s what it takes.  Problem is, that isn’t what it takes!  Ugly football is a guarantee of a scrap to avoid relegation!  Those who want football that is often called “pretty” or “flowing” don’t just want it because it’s good to watch, they want it because in 9 games out of 10 it is the way to win.  Odd games can be won by ugly football, but in general it is the way to lose…. Imho!!!

I, Guardiola, and Alonso don’t understand the idea that winning whether “pretty” or “good” is possible, and have the advantage of knowing that playing well gives a team much more likelihood of winning than playing badly, even with the sleeves rolled up.  That is the main reason their teams win nearly all the time. Any other manager would greatly increase their chance of success by realising that.  It’s the same with any game with a ball!  I’m hoping that’s the priority next season!!!….

Great result, but very poor attendance. We do look safe at last, although not a certainty…. bur certainly a cause for real optimism.  I suppose the gate was reduced by it being Champions League night.  Now we’re all asking the same question - Can KLTFC challenge at the top end of the league next season?  As with all clubs in this era, it largely depends on who has the best benefactor.  It’s so important that it’s almost that supporters aren’t cheering a team’s success, but more the benefactors donations, without realising it! That’s a reality that makes it much more difficult these days for a small club to win anything, or even challenge in the way that they did in previous eras…..  COYL!…..

Agree with M A H - Games are seldom won by defending.  First half our tenacity and work rate stopped their football, but in the second half their football was too much for our work rate and physicality. I don’t think our manager’s h-t team talk made us worse as much as their manger’s team talk made them better, and very good, to be fair,

Very disappointing.  Watched it on NLTV.  First half KLT were so tenacious.  On to everything in a flash, and won all the skirmishes. Their “skirmish” football was dominant enough to engineer chances, and they stuck them away with aplomb!  It looked as though S’carbto’ were in for a pasting, but then came half-time.  I could almost hear the team talk from the Seasider’s Bigwig… “Stand back a yard from the skirmishes- Get the ball on the ground and keep it there - Play in triangles, using, tricks, pass and go, and drop a shoulder when hemmed, and make chances galore”….  It worked., and disappointed us Linnets.  But our team have done very well, and we saw in the second half the standard of player needed to reach half way or go into the upper pantaloons of the league!…. Hopefully next season… Dilly is very appreciative of of the efforts of the Team managers, and particularly Steven Cleeve…

Phew!  Every game is still a nerve- jangler, but it is a very good run.  Fingers crossed we keep the climb going.  I’m still afraid that goals are hard to come by, but the team are finding them in the end.  I,m pleased for all who are interested, from the Chairman down to me!
