Arlesey Town 0 - 3 Redditch United

PARTY TIME!

Reds are staying up!!!!

Great result.

Fantastic result, pleased for everyone who made the trip today,Congratulations to all at the club,we live to fight another day To all those who kept faith with the reds, see you all next saturday .Lets all have a disco,

Get in. Up the reds and roll on next season. Can't make the weymouth game but have some fantastic memories from this season, the year the good ship reds was steadied!

What another top notch result...well done Graham and the lads for keeping your nerve and putting in some great displays at the business end of the season.

Having spoke to most of the guys...what a great bunch of lads and a great team spirit...the addition of Lee was a master stroke as it bought so much more out of the team in general.

Wonderful stuff Redditch....I predicted staying in the league would be like winning promotion and that is how I feel today....

Well done everyone

Three different management teams in a season, that's hard enough. Having a top striker removed after only 6 games, Hydey has had alot to contend with.
It'll be nice to have a settled pre season for a change.

First of all well done to the team for avoiding relegation.

But with the money we had to spend on the side it has been a very dissapointing season and celebrating staying up to me is not what I expected to be doing.

We should have been in the top 10 minimum so I see this as a season wasted. Hope the lessons are learnt and we sort this out for next season. Am I confident in this happening? To be honest with what I have seen throughout the club this season it is a no.

The football we play is average, we need some serious consideration as to the plan for next season and how we can improve. The football played at home has been poor, one dimensional and no plan B. The players we have are a bottom of the Southern Prem standard class, maybe next year some will learn from this season.

The recruitment of players needs to be seriously looked at, some behind the scene incidents this season have not helped. Ie Berwick being released by the owner when he was looking like he would score goals.

Having started the season wanting to play football we ended up playing hoofball. A combination is required and hopefully we can learn to be flexible in styles.

Next season?

Well a lot needs to be done on the pitch. The club need to sort out the 1st team mgt team and look at finding somebody who knows the Southern League Prem. nothing against Curly but his knowledge of Southam and the likes does not help us out in finding players who can improve us at this level. I believe that somebody more experienced at this level should be sought to work with him and Graham. Secondly the recruitment of players needs to be sorted out, this season we relied on to many loan signings and the biggest mistakes made were not finding any creativity until Lee Hendrie arrived. A striker is a must, Deabill is not a goalscorer, never will be. Berwick was a signing that if he was not released in a huff would have secured our Prem League survival weeks ago.

We should be aiming higher and looking at promotion out of this league and significant change is required in the squad IMO. I know that I will get the usual response from a number of people but this will be blinkered. Celebrating not getting relegated is failure, we should have been in the top half minimum with the budget in place.

Onwards and upwards to seeing what route the club takes in the close season as I shall be in Spain when the Weymouth game is played.

it is official I beat Jake Bedford

What cards

An excellent result. 3 goals and a clean sheet. Plus the bonus of the victory meaning we will be playing in this

division next season. I think we have stopped the rot and are beginning to turn the corner on and of the field.

stopped the rot?we have only lost twice in the last 12-13 games i think.
