tGWB Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Can we find out from someone in authority at our Club what we can expect with the recent change of Manager ? 1. Style of Football 2.

According to Wiki, he got Northampton promoted via the League Two Play Off Final in June 2020 beating Exeter 4-0, then got sacked by them in February this year after only 1 win in 10 games left them in 23rd A lack of financial support to allow him to buy players for Northampton to compete in League One argument could well have merit but we don't appear to have the financials to allow us to compete in League Two When the Club has offered what is probably the best season ticket deal for decades, have we not just shot ourselves in the foot again by not appointing a manager with a proven track record for building a team with a winning mentality that competes all over the park and bangs a good few goals in Or is that just too much to ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems a strange way of going about things but we shouldn't expect anything else really. Just let Butler get on with it if they think he's the man. He seems to have been around the coaching scene quite a bit over the years so I can't see what Curle's going to teach him in two months. I'm not saying I'd go with Butler, but that's looks the most likely outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that does happen then we'll have gone from someone who played flawed attacking football but was at least, in his own words, trying to build something. To someone experienced who would throw that all out to provide "winning" football without being given the time to do that actual winning part. Ending up with someone with no prior experience of playing, managing or being a head coach. If Butler is our head coach at the start of next season then I think that will be the breaking point.

Totally unrealistic expectations if they are indeed the owners' expectations (wouldn't surprise me) I cannot see us falling the other way as i reckon we may only need 46/47 points to stay up as only bottom 2 go down so even with the limited resources we have available I would expect 6/7 points from 13 games should be a given. Really at a loss to understand the club's sacking of Kewell given the position we are in and the above likelihood for the outcome of 2020/21 season. If they want Curle, are they looking for a 1/3 of a season for him to sort out the desired playing style for next season and try to mould the players remaining into a system that they are comfortable with? Will they want Curle to identify transfer targets to complement the remaining players and develop a system that can get the club up and running early on in 2021/22 with a realistic view of promotion? If they are not sure about Curle, why the interim coach role? Is this just to tap into his experience/ expertise and contacts and cynically try and exploit them, before ditching Curle as the transfer window opens? I fail to see any strategy at all I am afraid, mind you I have been of this opinion since they arrived in 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had no run to speak of - good or bad - since the first 4 games of the season where lost all 4, our first 10 games yielded 8 points, games 11-20 yielded 18 (6 wins), games 21-30 yielded 12. One thing we did under Kewell was generally win or lose and both teams scored more often than not, a refreshing change to some of the dirge over the last 4/5 seasons when the number of bore draws and drawn games in general led to our demotion to League 2 and our disintegration thereafter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
