But you must realise that you posted your opinion only. It could be seen that your post appears arrogant in the fact that you want Steve to post your view and not his own. So whilst you are asking Steve to change to suit what you believe is correct perhaps you should be thinking he is entitled to be honest when relaying how he feels!
Get a Grip Surf
Yes I do, but you can't blame Westley for that. He is trying to address those problems. Some people were against him from day one. This club has been dying for the last 3 years, and things needed to change. Lower league players and loanees on low wages is going to be the way from now on. At least GW has a track record of developing seemingly average players and turning them into winners.
Some people can't accept where we are, hence the ridiculous slating of all or new signings.
It was always going to be a risky strategy appointing this dude in January but at least once he's made the cull in the summer we should be up and firing going into next season with a squad full of guys willing to buy into his methods, and with the promise of "stellar" signings to come we need to have a bit of optimism.
This division is very average, and the lines between success and failure are very fine. Two or three quality signings and everybody singing from the same hymn sheet, and we'll be fine next season. Mark my words!
Without hope we have nothing, after all we are Preston North End, and have been crap since the 1960's.
If you expect instant success, you really should find another interest/hobby/club.
Not stupid enough to think he's definitely going to be our saviour, but by jove I hope and pray he will be, unlike some.

Fair comment but until recent days surf has always told us all is rosy in the garden when the garden actually reeked of sewage.
Did you miss my question earlier or did you choose to ignore it?
The latter. I'm not one for trawling through old posts, but I distinctly recall you stating you were about to withdraw your support in your exasperation at Westley's team.
Apologies if I'm wrong but you came across as anti-GW?

You obviously don't get it so never mind
In fairness he always comes across as a passionate supporter of your club. If you're looking for 'sulky negativity', one only has to read this board. 😱
I am falling out of love with the football 'product', not just down to Westley. I have massive concerns but am willing to hang on before I start slating him........simply because he has taken over a bag of shite!
I get it totally thanks. You feel Steve is out of order for stating his opinion, whilst wanting him to either suppress his view or just agree with yours. I would rather he was honest than simply cop out.........as you have blatantly done with your reply above!

That is what mickey mouse message boards are for, Not claiming to be a fans representative on Radio Lancashire you plonker.
I am fully aware of what you and a few others want to hear ............ anything which puts Westley down.
Anyway, as you suggest, I'm off to put a CD on as I see no further point 'conversing' with the likes of you.
As I said...................cop out!

Jesus....... I'll try one more time I think Steve Cowell is out of order for talking like a sulky kid whilst purporting to be a fans rep and he should get a grip. Hence the OP. I bid you goodnight
I know how you feel. I only go on really to have the craic wit lads. The "football" is usually the worst part of the day! But Westley and Ridsdale have come in and realise the foundations need a right good shake-up. It might turn out to be disastrous, it may be bloody successful. No-one knows. But some pretend they know what's going to happen already.
When we start to win again, which we will, the whole "experience" will improve.
Fingers crossed eh? Enjoy the rest of your evening Mr Nobber.
Ok, so you cannot see its just a matter of opinions? I thought he spoke well today.
Sleep well.

OK you're right! You are far too articulate for me and I give up.
Cheers Neal, you too.
During the game he was sound. Pre-match he was over-bearingly negative. So much so Hickson & Cunliffe were pissing their sides at the level of it!
Do you really think this is the sort of message that should be going out to the county? The last thing you need when you're down is a swift kick to the knackers. Surf sounded almost suicidal in his views - not good for moral, one bit. (And I'd just like to re-iterate - nothing against the scruffy pop man, but he was OTT today in my view)

Let's not beat around the bush, he sounded like a total spanner today.
If you ask me he needs to take a long look at himself. RL should not be using him right now. Which is as damning a critique as you could get that PNE fans don't want to listen to a radio about their team being discussed by one of their own.

Hickson read a positive text in response to ste's negative opening and stated "I think you're the only one" then laughed - I think that is what the OP is trying to stop from happening. If we give more air time to one point of view then that view becomes engrained - we should be looking at generating air time for both sides.
In fairness to Ste he has always offered other fans the opportunity to go in his place, so Tuesday send him a PM and you could be there enjoying the free pie at half time.

To me the message is simple . Very few people listen to Radio Lancs except Lancashire people. It therefore matters very little what Gary hickson or Surf says. In reality only PNE fans care about PNE ... Sorry!
