Quoted from crusty ole pie
Just back to basics 4-4- flipping two tried and tested it works players know what’s expected and it cover most bases



We've had various managers try all sorts of different formations over the years and they never work. They could work but the type of players you need are way out of our price range.

As you say, 442 works and the players understand it

Why can't they adapt to any other formation than 4  4  2. It is their fxxxing job!!!!

It isn't the 90s, Buckley isn't the manager and we don't have Childs, Rees, Cockerill etc. Why can't we move on? The rest of football has.

And when whatever formation doesn't work as well, we all cry out to change to such and such a one?
