laticsmarra Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 The appointment of Scholes is a positive for many reasons,lets see how he goes.The icing on the cake would be that his presence encourages outside investment and gets AL and his brother out of our club (and takes Barry Owen with him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has allegedly used his contacts to finance Scholes coming in and if AL is not there, would that finance also NOT be there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoytonLatics Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 1 hour ago, disjointed said: Unless the 2 new loanees can contrive to score a shit load of goals between them I can't see us going anywhere. We need a left back playing in the left back position and some fucker who can cross a ball getting the the said article into the box. The teams in this division are shite and if we can get at them we should start accumulating points. Bury are a team that score goals for fun and it has put them in the mix, this season has seen us hit new lows let's go out and try and demolish the opposition, I am getting to the point where I don't think I can take much more. So Taylor playing LB and Nepo (one of the highest league assists at one point) playing on the wing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't know to be honest, I normally hear some rumblings coming out of the club but can honestly say I haven't heard a thing about projected salaries and wouldn't just assume he's on 300k because Eyresy posted it on here a week or two ago. I have no doubt that Scholes has sought assurances and rightly so but I can't see AL proving he had 300k in the bank to pay him as being one of them. Finally if AL has managed to bring in Scholes I tip my hat off to him, other than a few bellends who are happy to have a picture taken with Andy Ritchie yet won't accept Scholes the appointment is as good as we could of wished for, his appointment should project the club in only one way and the positives for me far out weigh the negatives, I just hope and pray that AL and ML respect what he's trying to do and don't shoot themselves in the foot by interfering where they won't be needed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's on players we are having our pants pulled down by someone because other than probably Clarke and a couple of homegrown kids who won't be on much more than a grand a week the only standout players we've had this season are loanees.

GlossopLatic Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 9 hours ago, UpTheLatics said: Believe me, marra, I'm not expecting that. The consensus of this board's opinion still seems to consider us gatecrashing that top 7 to be realistic. What I've quoted, barring one run of form, is unlikely to happen. I think it would be unfair to expect it. Which is fair enough but what I'm saying is if we (Well the players atleast) just think about the next game and just getting 3 points from it and then doing the same game after game then we might find we exceed expectations. If Scholes is serious about being a manager long term here or anywhereelse then he should be trying to install a winning mentality at the club. No downing tools and throwing the kids in we should try and win as many games as possible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m praying we don’t play Salford at the business end of the season because I know that if this farcical situation was happening at another club and the result between them and Salford prevented Latics staying up/getting promotion on the last day of the season I would be livid. Hypocrisy of the highest order by the EFL this, PlayItLivo made a great point earlier about the betting rules... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deyres42 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Doubt Scholes gives two shits about Salford really, Lim and the Nevilles are the drivers there, the authorities obviously happy enough so bit odd that people are trying to come up with wildly hypothetical scenarios. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
