Ricardo Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Felt sorry for Stott, Hamer and Mills as they care and work hard, it has to be demoralising for them at the club with teammates who either are not up to it or just don’t care. Vera, my goodness, he was laughable, I thought he was going off after 20 mins when the coaching staff told Desire to warm up after Vera’s comedy header Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before, he's the only striker I've seen that's 6'2" stood up and 5'9" when he jumps. He has the very unusual knack of bending almost double at the waist when going for a header, thus reducing his height. It's a very strange way of trying to win a ball in the air.

Just leaves a bad taste. Tried to park behind the RRE with a blue badge for my disabled daughter today as we have done for many years. £5 this season apparently unless you have some type of club permit. I dont have a problem with paying, the benefit for us is the proximity, it's just that I knew nothing about it. The very nice attendant said it had been on the website so it is my fault as I never look at it now. Just feel that this is part of a trend.

Sad sad times and before the usual suspects tell me to wait ten games - fuck off, if you can't see the trouble we're in after two games them you've got your head up your arse. Get these cunts out of our football club before we do a Stockport. 2 hours ago, yarddog73 said: Wears a cap and behaves like a cunt - narrows it down?

Fair comment but I'm saying it as I see it, I've really no reason to worry about how classy I project my opinion, it is what it is. If I've offended you personally I'm sorry for that but I stand by what I posted. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) Not the coaches fault as such as he’s been offered the job but I struggle at times to understand what he’s talking about in his interviews so what must it be like for the players? The likes of Vera and Sefil should not be anywhere near a professional football team Nepo has to be one of if not the best player in the squad yet he’s on the bench and Branger plays?????? Mouche captain.....come on please! How on earth we let Pete Wild and his assistant go I will never ever know, passion, enthusiasm, desire, and organisation, all qualities we are missing. The club is seriously in trouble this season Edited August 10, 2019 by Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Well we had the first 3 minutes of that game and then and then....... Vera actually had a good first10 minutes but then....... It was a team of disconnected individuals who had no idea what anyone else was doing with a captain who didn't even know what he was doing himself. Woods saved us from a drubbing and Hamer kept at it. I can't see where our first point is coming from. We need someone who can hold the ball in attack and someone who can make a tackle and keep the ball in midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, think we will be well beaten. I can't bring myself to bet against us - otherwise I would have bet on both FGR (I said it well b4 the game) and Crewe to beat us - and had a healthy return. At the moment, it's very safe money betting on a Latics loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the club did advertise the news that they would be charging disabled supporters this year to park. If you intend to go to all the games this season (I am not sure why any sane person would) you might be better off getting a season pass. I bought one for £100 . Drop Billy a call at the club and he will sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have owners who clearly haven’t a fucking clue how to run a football club and more importantly don’t give a shite either. We have to get right behind this fan led group immediately and get these fucking ’s out. I had a conversation with one of them earlier this week and I’m staggered by what he told me. I am 100% convinced they have the club at heart and that we should be backing them to the hilt. ABDALLAH OUT!! You have to wonder, would the FLG be any worse than this complete and utter shambles that is the current ownership? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I strongly doubt that they would be worse. But they still shouldn't be blindly backed. The standards we set for owners should not simply be "better than Lemsagam and Corney". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nohairdontcare Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 And I thought Crewe away under Dunn was a low. I remember feeling sickened at what I’d witnessed on the pitch, but glad to be on a very rare (for me) away Latics jaunt, to at least get my share of the pain. But f€&@“:g hell, it’s toxic now. Problems back then seemed almost solvable by a stroke like getting Shez back or.... getting Shez back. Where we are now... it’s way worse than we should be. It’s gone from a decline to being pummelled into the ground. At this lowest of the low, sadly for me, results don’t matter, manager doesn’t matter, league status doesn’t matter. I’ll love the club and the people - but not the owner or anyone who is linked to him. I saw on twitter someone mentioned AL had a fake watch. I know that in the early days he was stupid enough to flash it at agents when offering “name your price” wage negotiations. I noticed in his first press conference he kept it hidden. What a snake of a man. More buffoon than clown. And a nasty buffoon too, the worst type. Without wanting to be patronising, I love Latics and the people I meet every time I’m there. I’m proud of my roots and A ‘Marco’ L can ruin everything, except I think we’ll bounce back.... without the €&@t. Rant over. See you all at the Chesterfield match. And those who choose to stay away, cheers to you all too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
