    Butcher watch

    In order to deflect some attention from our own inept display at the weekend I did notice that our ex manager guided Newport to a 3-0 thumping defeat on the opening day of the season.

    Nice start Terry and its clear your magic is working.

    Goal two was about the worst goal ever conceded by a football team not called Hibs.

    This result is a perfect example of how the tactic of losing a goal first to get it out of the way doesn't work. I was surprised that Tel hadn't given up on that one by now.

    The opposition will eventually get to know that's one from his impressive armoury of footballing strategies.

    Really enjoyed these brief highlights. First time I've ever got excited watching League 2 in England. Hopefully lots more of the same to come.

    You joke.... But some of the comments on here makes me think people would rather watch murder journeymen with work rate than players with genuine skill and ability

    Passing the ball back and forward aimlessly for long periods without getting anywhere can be just as murder to watch as hoofing the ball forward and hoping for the best. And to be fair to Butcher, he built Inverness into the successful side they've been for a few years on a smaller budget than Stubbs is getting with Hibs (and that's not counting the multiple coaches, technical this and that's and so on Stubbs has brought in).

    Yes, Butcher ****ed Hibs up (although Hughes, Fenlon, Calderwood and Collins all helped send us in that direction), but with a clean slate and a new team, who's to say he couldn't have gotten Hibs up in one go like he did with Inverness, even if the football WAS murder?

    I'm of the belief that the only place he was taking us was down, furher than he did.

    We're in the Championship because of that ****, and I pity Newport. Nobody deserves to have such incompetence thrust upon them.

    We'll never know as he was one of the worst managers we've ever had.

    I would say he wouldn't have because he is a horrific imposter of a football manager and by all accounts him and his back room staff are just thuggish dinosaurs

    I saw butcher had started a "together we can be stronger" campaign the other week, did he not try and do the similar thing when he was here ?

    Little off-topic, but does anyone anyone know what the 'special celebration' was that Butcher had planned if we survived relegation?

    The good news about being humped 3-0 on your debut is it takes away the fear of being humped 3-0 on your debut.
