Insulting one's intelligence.

Dear Wally, for the past few month's I've seen you say that you have 'irons in the fire' in regards to players coming in to bolster the squad and help in the goals for column.
I've come to the conclusion this a load of ol' baloney and just something to try and motivate the current crop of players in the squad (if you don't pull your socks up I'm going to get someone else in).
It's been a wasted opportunity I think. Should have got someone before December if at all. By the end of this week (next Saturday) the season could be over and it'll be pointless getting someone then, but I don't think you had any intention of getting anyone anyhow. Can't blame you, as we don't have any money, but I've got wise to it now and so have the players I think or else they would've been trying a lot harder of late. You've been sussed mate.

 

[Jezybee]

A touch harsh seeing the job Wally has done on no money.
Ever thought of being a sports psychologist?

 

[Edmundo]

Don't blame Wally - it's his boss's fault.

Whatever happened to Roberto Forzoni??????

 

[Brentford Bob]

F@ck me, one below par performance and out come the doubters.

 

[Brickie Chap]

Lay off Wally, he is doing a brillant job

 

[Nick Hester]

A few points off the play offs, still in the FA Cup, in the Leyland Daf Semi Final... He doesn't know what hes doing does he?

I'd sack him.

 

[WarrenBee]

Bring back Ron Noades as manager I say.

 

[Edmundo]

Can we afford the wages?

 

[Nigel Brooks]

Can we afford the wages?

Or two loads of crap in every programme.

Sod the doubters Wally, keep on doing a fantastic job in difficult circumstances.

[Fat Bee Slim]

Well said Gaz. And everyone else. You pessimistic fool, IBAE. Why all the negative comments? Do you honestly think he has the means to get anyone else in, and whether they'll actually add much to the team as opposed to people like Smith (Jay and Paul), Rowlands, Dobson, Scotty M, Hunt, McCammon, who run their knackers into the ground week in, week out...and for what?! Supporters like you who criticise them after a DRAWN game?!

"Should've got someone by December" you say. Er, transfer window?!

Get a grip!

 

[Mr T Bee]

Last season we said the same thing, and people replied "oh but we're in the play off zone" then we had a godawful jan/feb with burgess out injured and siddy only just arrived...

 

[Trandy]

And I would like to add the fact that we would have had a certain Lee Bradbury, had it not been for the player not wanting to drop down a division.

Wally is a king

 

[Infatuated Bees Alter Ego]

Where have I said Wally has done a bad job in the above text ?
I ain't, he has done a great job considering.
This is my only point. I am not a mushroom so don't feed me with bullsh*t abot getting players in, cos he knows, the other players in the team knows and we all know that it ain't going to happen, because of the restraints we have with money.
He is just trying to motivate the players by saying that and I realise that now, before I was hoping we'd get someone in, so we could get a few more goals, but I've come to the conclusion that it a'int going to happen.

He's never said anything about getting players in apart from always looking. The one deal which nearly came off was scuppered at the last minute due to injury.

Come on Keith, were you on the wrong side of the bed when you posted that?

 

[Sweepy]

I think we have all the answers in the squad. My only criticism would be that the best striker currently on the books is being used in midfield for most of the season.

Jay Smith?!!!

 

[Sweepy]

Jay Smith?!!!

lol lol lol

You don't call yourself cynical for nothing! There is one player who scores almost every time he is used as a striker. There is one other player who fails to score almost every time he is used as a striker, but gets the nod.

Kevin O' Connor, who is only used up front as cover plays in midfield because he is effective there as well, so it's a bit of a dilema for Walley. Perhaps we should make our next signing a cloning machine! lol

 

[parachute]

the players and management love criticism, it makes them feel wanted, lets get on the players back now, it will make them play better.

Oh the sarcasm.

Fair point, but I think there are things that need to be said from time to time.

I agree criticism is not ideal, but it is important to be concerned.

Mark, glad to say I'm in a postive frame of mind for tonights game.
I have had stress a plenty of late trying to find a home for my beloved dog.
I did find Saturday's game an endurance rather than entertaining and I have seen reports in newspapers about Wally 'looking' at other players to bring into the squad ........
All under the bridge now and hoping we get a good result tonight.

 

[solobee]

I don't think any other manager in the league could have done better.
Tonight was a prime example, we dominated the game, but we lack quality experienced players to finish the opposition off. We can not afford these players.

Agreed, but you could look it going out as an opportunity cost. £40,000 for going through and having 2 more games would be enough to cover wages for 4 players on 2 month loans !!!!
