Or maybe you are setting youreself up for a told you so on Saturday. Cant believe some of the comments on here its laughable never knew we had so many moronic fans . Only thing moronic is continuing to back a loser, one thing I will say in Unsworth defence is that the owners need to give him two midfielders minimum if they are going to persist with him, doing the same thing week in week out will change little and although Lundstrum may be the answer the pressure on him now has become massive before he's even kicked a ball for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pidge Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 7 hours ago, League one forever said: They’re not bemused- that would imply they’re stupid and incredibly naive about football. Which they’re not. Bemused is just a facade for ego about getting a key decision wrong, and putting a friend before the club. I think the board are genuinely hurt we won’t support must not lose negative football. There is an air of ‘we’ve got everything else right- so just trust us that despite results, he’ll become a good manager based on the fact he’s our friend and we know him’ It genuinely wouldn’t surprise me that if they are ‘forced’ to sack him, there could be something from the club that while they’re sad to let him go, they didn’t feel the fans gave a chance. I can live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans are the club they keep telling us, I'm presuming that still stands?. The board is losing the faith of the fans. The razzmatazz of crowds marching with Frank has worn thin, let down by poor performances on the pitch. If were Frank I'd be cringing the good name of the club is becoming a music hall joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 13/10 (Bet365), Bromley are 19/10 with the draw at 21/10. So we are favourites - based on recent form that is absolutely ridiculous and definitively NOT worth a bet!

Can Neil Redfearn Do It Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 On 9/11/2023 at 9:33 PM, Dave_Og said: There's a very common misconception around what bookies expect or predict. The whole point of being a bookie, particularly in the modern corporate age, is to lock in a profit regardless of the result. They are not risk takers. Quite right but the bookies still have to draw a line in the sand when opening the book and they made us third favourites at that time. Granted and as you allude to, they'll have priced in an expectation that Latics will attract more stakes by virtue of having more fans who back them regardless (I'm very much one of them, a real glutton for punishment..) Then we signed Norwood and presumably attracted some backing and became clear second favourites. One thing for sure is that the odds of Latics winning just 1 of the first 8 would have been astronomical! 4 hours ago, Dave_Og said: We are 13/10 (Bet365), Bromley are 19/10 with the draw at 21/10.

Wish I'd taken 6/4 the other day instead of waiting for us to drift (although since we'll not win it doesn't matter what price I get ) For Dorking we were 4/5 when the book opened and 1/2 by KO.
