At least I can understand the Quote facility, unlike you and plenty of others (this is probably going to be lost on you.)

Why should we win promotion this year? You have done nowt but moan about the team's ability so please enlighten us.

We don't have to be very good, just better than 21 other bags of shite.

If you don’t know where you’ve come from it’s difficult to know where you are going to , and why.

What an absolute load of tosh. 

You are a pensioner with too much time on your hands and probably spend every morning reading your Daily Mail. 

Forward is the only way to look.

I think Fane could offer this side enough especially at L2 level. Undoubtedly he needs to learn and be coached but still think he could and will have a part to play once back fit

Come here Ousmane, Ball... Foot... Kick. 

Yes that should do it. 

He will soon be playing holding midfielder at Stamford Bridge now. 

He is as similar to Makelele as I am to Lewis Hamilton because I once overtook a pensioner in her Nissan Sunny

And he'd still stand out in this midfield, thanks a lot Lemsagam. 

As what, a comedian? 

You probably rated Winchester too and before him Wesolowski. 

All low grade footballers (and I use that term loosely) who went on to lower levels on free transfers proving that they were over rated by Latics fans. 

All 3 could survive at 4th division level which merely illustrates how far we have fallen now. O'grady is passable too. 

Yes its that shite.

Fane did ok in League One for a lot of the season until we ran him into the ground 

Doing OK as in not being able to pass the ball more than 5 yards. Some fans have got used to watching absolute shite even before the 4th division. 

Thanks a lot Corney

I’m not sure. I just like the phrase. 

 

So you I take it you trust him to put in a performance in every week?

Every other week yes- If correctly handled, which quite obviously Wellens couldnt do and Bunn hasnt this season.

We have all played in teams including the likes of Byrne but I dont want the centre halves giving him a 5 yard pass in the centre circle.

Get him on the edge of their area and the rest of the time the other 4 workhorses in midfield can ignore him.

The times he isnt performing take him off and put Baxter on or even start Baxter the week after.

Pinch a point? Bar the first 10 minutes when they were on top that was a very even contest, we had a good spell in the 2nd half too. 

 

The match stats reinforce this, in fact as Gardner’s effort that hit the post, closest either side came to scoring, won’t count as a shot on target

 

To pinch a point you dont have to have been battered. I think that the terminology is correct when you set up to bore people to death and come away with a 0-0!

A lot of stuff still showing on companies house that isn’t right like Simon Brooke still being a director. New directors which have come in Abdallahs brother being one, aren’t showing. 

I never said that it was definately still outstanding. This might be just admin being poor but it should have been corrected by now.

It is not in the interest of the owners of OAFC 2004 Ltd for debts to still be shown if they have been settled. Necarcu should be instructed to take it off, immediately.

Until it is taken off at Companies House I would judge it as still being outstanding. By the way the Accounts are nearly 5 months late too!

These things are important in the commercial world. Our credit rating must be shot to bits but little things like this need sorting

I’ve no idea chaddy. 

 

You offering? 

BP is holding me to buying the club for £1.10p so I would love to help but am fully committed at this moment in time.

I am going to get that PA who wrote out AL's statement to do one for me very shortly.

It will explain nothing but will keep the happy clappers ecstatic.

I even have a few old scarfs to bribe them with if they dont fall for it straight away

Scouse loan was a debt corney took with him as part of the sale apparently so nothing to do with us now. 

Is that what he promised? It is still showing as being outstanding at Companies House.

It’s abundantly clear he’s not very wealthy in owner terms. He’s invested 3 mill, but really that’s not a lot in this context.

 

It’s clear to me that’s it’s going to be a slow build. Thats ok if it means we pay staff on time, we don’t sign not rights, we aren’t fighting winding up orders. We aren’t taking out scouse loans, and having one PR disaster after another. Or blaming the fans, and having an them and us attitude.

£3M-Cheapskate. How much would it cost to change your username?

By the way the scouse loan has not been paid off, to my knowledge.

Interesting that Coventry didn't come back in for him. Perhaps they, like Charlton and Portsmouth, didn't like what they saw from January onwards.

Also i bet that the monies received from Mansfield was a lot less.

Honest statement. He’s chucked 3m and people will still give him shit. 

 

I also am happy he has has defended himself against the shit that was thrown by the likes of Davies. Just an entitled footballer trying to leave mid/contract for higher wages who then downed tools in a sulk.  

I have lost count of the number of times that posters on here have said that once a player decides to leave, let him go!

Not that I necessarily agree with those posters on certain occasions the initial point does stand.

Was it Coventry that wanted him now that is a good move for him and werent they willing to give us very decent money!

If that was the case it was a stupid decision to keep an unhappy player as we all realise now!

Where did I say we had 3m debts? 

See now that is better.

I have picked you up on this before; You quote the other persons arguments and take it to the nth degree. Then when challenged you back track on some point that YOU made.

He spunked loads of money on foreigners that he brought into the club who were never good enough, divided the squad and forced out Shez.

If you want me to carry on I can list at least half a dozen decisions on players that he made before the end of last season which contributed towards relegation.

Now he is pleading poverty. And O'Grady will be leading our attack on Saturday. Good grief.

Down the swanny? Are you suggesting he should have ignored the debts, entered admin and restarted at the bottom of the pyramid? 

 

Jackanory time. 

You really should think before you type. 

Do you really expect anyone to believe that we had £3M of current debt? 

He blew too much money on wages last year. A lot of that on his own players. 

Now look at the players we are left with. 

£3M down the swanny, Jesus! Bullshit baffles brains. O'Grady will still be playing on Saturday.

We do not have a midfield and our 3 best players are either injured, unfit or tied up in a basement somewhere.

You're being deliberately obtuse. FGR have a group of below average players for L2, playing together as a team in a system they understand, and are hence overacheiving. We have (in theory!) a collection of players that should (!) be up the top end of L2, without any cohesion or togetherness yet, hence we're likely to underacheive for a while. It shouldn't take anywhere near 2 years to get up the curve.

It is i before e except after c. Not that I am being obtuse.

You believe (see i...e) that we have a collection of players that should be up the top end of L2!!!!! Where are they?

Is your definition of obtuse where someone disagrees with you-My point was that we are signing shite players.

Gardner? He is ok... that’s it.  Trier. 

 

Gets caught in possession an awful lot. 

Coming from the bloke who used to get his tissues out over Fane that is very rich indeed

I was thinking about re-phrasing this but thought why bother

Fair enough,  but that is cheap, I doubt there are many clubs doing that?  Mate of mine who is a Rochdale fan (not chaddysmoker) is paying £20 I think.

Stop lying.

You havent got any mates

The plywood fascia at one end and the scruffy roof on the chaddy was an embarrassment and needed to be sorted.  I believe the owner has listened to the fans and is trying to balance the books whilst improving the surroundings and put out a competitive team on the pitch. This is a project that will take longer than a season.  A year of stability is required to stop the decline and to provide a foundation to build upon.  Its the reality of our situation.

 

So please explain to me where signing shite players comes into this equation?

How does that;

a) Stop the decline

b) Provide a foundation
