St Marco Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/?page_id=11296 Guess someone forgot to tell him we have no cash?
Torres Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Wotte a dimebar. Indeed. Heaven help him for trying to improve our team.
Greenridge Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 "I don't want anyone who isn't better than the players we have," Wotte said. At least he has a different strategy to JP....Pulis, Smith....
Mole Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Indeed. Heaven help him for trying to improve our team. You believe what you like.
NickG Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 maybe worth watching one of his games before writing him off?
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Do you get the impression that some people would rather he failed in order to have more ammunition against the current board? I mean, "the board" for all it means could be made up of Peter Sutcliffe and Jade Goody for all I cared. If it suddenly stopped being bad and suddenly became good I for one haven't got the time to sit and berate them for their historic mistakes. They have made a change and time will tell if it works, not a nerd on a forum making pessimistic posts.
Torres Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 You believe what you like. May I take this opportunity to thank you, whole-heartedly, for your gracious and wise decision to allow me to "believe what I like".

The way i see it is he is the manager now and we have to support him. I myself would have gone with an english manager like Boothroyd but the club have decided appointing the reserve coach is the best way to go. Results will show if it is a good or bad decision. One thing is for certain is that we will persist with the dutch method, one that Wotte introduced, he is not new to the club. With 17 games left we can't afford to lose the 50% of games we have, we must win more then we lose or were be down for sure. Come the end of the season will come the time to judge him and throwing remarks around at other posters not right now, because if he continues the run off 1 win in 12 games that were on then your look a bit of a tit won't you
SaintRobbie Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Wotte can only buy young cloggies. We need experienced CCC men to survive - of which none are likely to want to come to Saints given the way Lowe's club policy has deliberately alienated them towards leaving. Its scandalous to be honest. Unless Lowe has a plan to go into administration, buy it up at a snip and turn this club into a permanent feeder club in League 1 I cannot for the life of me see the sense in this strategy.

When you read it do you know what you were trying to say?
Scudamore Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 There's been a few comments from Wotte thusfar that have led me to believe he's actually quite switched on...this despite my initial thoughts that his appointment is leading us down poo creek sans paddle...Boothroyd would have been nice...but is/was unlikely... Oh and Marco you really need to get a grip on this whole... were we're - we are we'll - we will ...thing. Someone else pointed it out the other day and you're still doing it.

When you read it do you know what you were trying to say? Sorry not quite sure i understand what you mean? I said throwing insults around at other people who think the appointment of an assistant is a good idea, could make you look a tit if in a few weeks/months we remain where we are? Again i'm not quite sure what is too difficult to understand about that?

NickG Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 With just over 2 days left in window ( i think) any buy imo is a panic that will be something like 80% of the nation's transfers (think that figure was for the last 24 hours!)

There are a large number of people taking an unseemly amount of satisfaction out of the current crisis. Taking delight in being proved 'right' and such, when they won't really have been proved 'right' until we are relegated and/or go into administration. It's like a bunch of vultures eager for the beast to die so they can begin picking over the corpse.

Indeed...and it's really quite easy to read i must say...gawd bless Cmardibge Uinervtisy. However...this is unforgivable: "With 17 games left we can't afford to lose the 50% of games we have, we must win more then we lose or were be down for sure." Even with an apostrophe that would be "we are be down for sure" which if you were a famer would have a certain charm....but i'm guessing you're not... The apostrophe fills in those missing letters is how to remember... I should be a teacher...but i hate kids...

Chap in the Chapel Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 'I won't panic buy' is probably another way of saying 'Don't expect anyone to be bought in permanently this weekend as there isn't any money.'
Mole Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Mate, if you think that is your only mistake in this sentence then it speaks volumes. Remember what happened last time you tried to get clever?
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 There are a large number of people taking an unseemly amount of satisfaction out of the current crisis. Taking delight in being proved 'right' and such, when they won't really have been proved 'right' until we are relegated and/or go into administration. It's like a bunch of vultures eager for the beast to die so they can begin picking over the corpse. My point exactly. I can't see why people cannot allow themselves to think that they would be pleased if we climbed the table now under Wotte and had what looked like a healthy and positive summer to mull things over. Just saying things like, "It won't happen so not worth considering" is a childish response and seems more in line with their hopes than anything else.
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Remember what happened last time you tried to get clever? Be clever, not get clever. "Clever" isn't something you can locate and bring to a location.
Mole Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Be clever, not get clever. "Clever" isn't something you can locate and bring to a location. Aren't you the ****y one.

It's like a bunch of vultures eager for the beast to die so they can begin picking over the corpse. Totally agree. I personally find the thought of not filling our team full of mediocre cast off's quite refreshing. This approach should have been taken from day one this season.

I think he's been hiding/allowed to hide up until now, but now he's been given the reins, I think its a bit too soon to write him off completely. People were slagging him off before the first half at Norwich was half over, although I agree that he got the starting line-up wrong. But he did change things around, something JP seemed unable to even consider. So just maybe he might improve things....
Saint Bones Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Anyway - Slightly back on track. For me my worry is this statement is just saying - We won't be bringing any more players in. We could do with something inspirational
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 It's not a compliment. It was. From you, it always is.

In fairness to all the 'nerds' mate, all pretty spot on about JP and the direction we'd be heading under Lowe and his great Dutch experiment weren't they?

There are two other teams in the relegation battle that don't have Dutch experiments going on, so my stats prove it is far more likely to succeed under the Dutch Experiment than a non-Dutch one. P.S. What does your Avatar mean? I don't get it. It looks like a lonely old man drinking in a pub with no mates.
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Little Johnny isn't very bright. Sizeist. Mods, can we have this person read his rights please?

santo_michele Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 If the board "went Dutch" and put £2 million in each, where would that leave us?
Mole Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 If the board "went Dutch" and put £2 million in each, where would that leave us? Lowe put money into Saints. The money only goes one way with Lowe.

eelpie Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 "I don't want anyone who isn't better than the players we have," Wotte said. At least he has a different strategy to JP....Pulis, Smith.... And an admission that SFC have been signing players not as good as we already had?
JohnnyFartPants Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 Which stats are these, the stat widely termed as "the league table", which shows 22 clubs not employing the "dutch method" above us in the table? Damn, and there was me thinking my "stats" were full proof!!
ottery st mary Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 (edited) Wotte: I won't Panic Buy but if I do I will ask Kim and Rupert first. Sounds like One Size has been good for The Mighty Saints....Who was that source? Edited 30 January, 2009 by ottery st mary mistake in name
Gordon Mockles Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/?page_id=11296 Wotte - "I won't panic buy" Guess someone forgot to tell him we have no cash? Wotte - "I won't panic buy" Nope, just won't buy!
alpine_saint Posted 30 January, 2009 Posted 30 January, 2009 This indicates nothing more than the club wont be buying. Period.

Note. you got me banged to rights, billy no mates!
