MATCH: Ebbsfleet (A) 03/02/24

Feckin McGahey, what’s he doing in the team -
Frank Rothwell
Ritchierich replied to SweeperKeeper's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Seems like he’s been having a tough few days battling rough seas and headwinds…surely this should be MMs pre match on Saturday…our 73 year old owner..the bloke who pays our wages and really doesn’t have to be doing this has been on his own for the last 50 days in a tiny boat rowing for 8-10 hours a day to raise money to help other people…so what are you going to do for the next 90 minutes…? -
The way recruitment has been handled since the Rothwell money came in has been pretty appalling, we have signed sooo many players with very few actually making an impact and now have a huge but still unbalanced squad. Surely that is on Mr Royle Jr and DU and his team when they were running the show. Hopefully now we are recruiting to a better plan but I am still not entirely convinced.

I’m also a little surprised at this one. Midfield still seems like our weak spot surely and with Norwood and Dallas plus Fondop (and one of the other strikers as a further back up, including Green and Tollit as attacking wingers) we must have enough up front. I’m also stunned at the supposed amount of money being chucked at this by the Rothwell family, I rather fear that with their lack of football background they are not able to challenge some of the decision making, and certainly not when DU and the gang were in full hiring mode last summer. Ultimately, we have to get promotion this season or next otherwise questions will be asked. It would actually be great to understand the clubs overall finances but I guess that’s never going to happen

Both Solihull and Aldershot only drew tonight -
Good point, you’d think after 50 years I’d have realised that

MATCH: Woking (H) 27/01/24

We need a midfield, Lundstrum, McGahey and Sheron are all shite and need replacing. Next season hopefully -

oh fuck off -
MATCH: Woking (H) 27/01/24
Ritchierich replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
We’re still shit aren’t we? No surprise really as the same half arsed weak minded players are all still there. It needs completely overhauling and unlikely MM can do that this season. I know we’re still solidly in the playoffs but can anyone seriously see this lot battling their way through 3 “cup finals”? Not a feckin chance -
MATCH: Barnet (H) 23/01/24
Ritchierich replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Thoroughly enjoyed that, excellent debuts from Conlon and Sachdev. Lund looked far better as did Sheron. What really struck me was when we had a bit of a ragged patch early in the second half we never switched off and there was always someone covering, blocking, getting their body in the way…superb commitment and it felt like they know the bar has been raised Well done MM and thank you Frank and family! -

Shame about Dallas, slightly surprised he isn’t on the bench but Hope can do a good job from there wherever needed and Walker with his pace I guess Jeez, we have a huge squad!!! -

..a reminder of why Aldershot are having a much better season than many assumed…they’ve got some very good players but young so some erratic results -
MATCH: Eastleigh (A) 20/01/24

Alright, alright, just in a bad mod -
MATCH: Eastleigh (A) 20/01/24
Ritchierich replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
This stinks to me, I live in Hampshire and whilst it has been a cold this week the ground is not that frozen and by midday is pretty soft, not a chance this is unplayable….except we are in the 2020s where logic is replaced by nonsensical bollocks I sense Eastleigh are not that keen to play the game tomorrow This may be the final straw for me with football, the game is almost unrecognisable from when I grew up -

MATCH: Hendon (H) 13/01/24
Ritchierich replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
I’m still pissed off that we basically chucked the towel in and gave up on a potential Wembley trip…seriously, who the fuck do we think we are? I’m sick of this squad, way too big and far too many half arsed players who don’t deserve to be professional footballers imho As for the playoffs, Southend will be the team to beat if they go on a run and join the party.
