Where are the PADDYS CRAP / SIMMOS GOT NO TACTICAL ABILITY / SHAW OUT / WHERES THE MONEY GONE etc. etc. etc. posters now?

One league game lost at Norwich, and thats largely due to playing it with 10 men (Stock was awful, a great Davies signing who Simmo is already trying to move on).

haha, you could say you started one now. the stock is awful thread 😛


Agree, nice change to read nothing but positives. What's next oof & Kesil praising each other!
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Ah Thonker, two swallows do make a summer for you, lets get a bit of reality;

But for Nash last night, the result could have been so different,

Simpson picked Stock to play at Norwich,

Shocking against QPR, Port Vale, and Shef Weds, Wolves were very poor,

Chilvers is still not as good as Wilson,

Pugh his goal apart is not very good,

Advertising boards still empty round the ground, stand frames empty,

No marketing department initiatives,

Crowds very poor, just over 12k last night, and that after the Cardiff win,

Kelly still being paid for doing nothing,


Plus points, 4th in the table, Mellor signed, Nash in great form, Nugent still with us, Stock on loan, cant think of many more

Your rose coloured garden might look just dandy to you Thonker, but accept the present at your peril, why choose Chilvers and Pugh over Wilson and Neal, and before you say 4th, surely you can improve a winning team.

This must be the way forward in the running of a PLC, no CEO, no marketing department, talk the show down, pre fire sale anouncements by the Chairman.

We played very well last night, well done one and all, thank god for Nash.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

I think Pughs a bloody good player and a hard worker as well, at the minute Chilvers & Hill are the only negatives I can pick from the team...
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

The moaners will never go away. No doubt some of them moaned all the way through our two championship seasons 96/2000.

I was one saying Shaw out, i still stick by that, but i will allways support the boy's no matter what.I will be the first to hold my hand up if Shaw dose get us up to the Prem and sorts our finances out ect ect, That's just my opinion,
It is looking like though he has found a bit of a gem in simmo though.😀
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

I heard a rumour on the Pavillion lastnight that Shaw is gonna be retiring (don't know when) and a certain Mr Hemmings could be his replacement - not Trevor though (his son)!!!

Now I don't know how serious this conversation with 2 members of North End staff was but I found it interesting....

I was thinking there was something missing myself, namely that 2 hours have passed and Thonker hasn't started a new thread yet, but here it is and what a good one!
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

As far as players are concerned - the two last selections have produced the goods, therefore why change it? Settled teams win games, chopping and changing is a risky business.

I do think we need someone with some managerial and PR creativity at the club.

Answer. Could say the same about the WBA keeper.

Simpson picked Stock to play at Norwich,
Answer. He gave him a fair go to assess him and has moved quickly.

Shocking against QPR, Port Vale, and Shef Weds, Wolves were very poor,
Answer. Simmos first 6 games in anger, give him a settling in period, and in reality first 3 produced the SAME results as last year and Wolves we won, the same Wolves team who have had 4 wins and a draw, the same Wolves team who have only conceded 5 goals this season and we scored 3 of them.

Chilvers is still not as good as Wilson,
I trust Simmos opinion over yours.

Pugh his goal apart is not very good,
Ditto.

Advertising boards still empty round the ground, stand frames empty,
Well buy some space then.

No marketing department initiatives,
For example?

Crowds very poor, just over 12k last night, and that after the Cardiff win,
Crowds are down generally, think we are about average.

Kelly still being paid for doing nothing,
Ask Ned to sort that mess out then.

You are a miserable sod Billy.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Well billymc you must run one hell or a buisness, you must go down as one of the most negative posters on here and what is a stand frame,and what would you do about Kelly pay him up to go to his pall.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

I always feel depressed after reading a Billy Mac post.

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, Heaven knows I'm miserable now.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Good afternoon blind faithers, and if your miserable then so be it. I'm not, just see things as they are.

Concourse frames that new reg used to have for adverts, now all available for sale/rent, pitch side advertising, I'll bet that not may clubs in our league and below, have space available.

So everyone is happy, good, but can we improve things at Deepdale, sure we can. Where is the marketing department, only recently received an email asking to sponsor a player a month into the season???????? and no follow up????

Only those with rose tinted specs can possibly suggest that Chilvers is a better player than Wilson (a young tallent who should make a tidy profit), and that Pugh is a better left sided player than Neal (would have lost to QPR had Neal not come on), and dont give me his goal, that as I can see has been his only contribution so far.

I am enjoying our league position as any fan, but lets not get carried away that everything at Deepdale is ok.

Just let Kelly go, so what if he joins Davies, Derby are not our concern, get the cost off the books.

Great investment in the head groundsman, the hard work carried out over the summer has produced a superb playing surface, pity some of our players cant take advantage of it and pass to each other.

Thonker, your trying to tell us that the WBA keeper played well, he was awfull, flapped at nearly everything, and hardly had a save to make, were you at the game?
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Billy you spoke of Nash`s great save. Did you see the one that kept out Whaleys thunderbolt in the second half.

Deuce.


And you can`t just let Kelly go, he has a contract, he will want it paying up, thats the problem, we are at stalemate mate.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Thonker, I'm sure that if Mr Shaw didnt demand compensation from Derby, and Kelly didnt demand his contract to be paid up, he could appear at Derby without any break in service, surely this has to be in the best interests of PNE. This gardening leave on full pay, is something I'm sure Kelly is frustrated with, as is Mr Shaw, lets all be adults and move on.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Neddy is wanting and waiting for PNE to sack him so he can collect on the rest of his contract, lets say £300k. (just a guess). Then after picking up his dosh will go straight over and join Stumpy.

PNE would be happy for him to go if he wrote off his contract, but like the Greedy Dwarf he`s only in it for the money.

I really don't understand why Chilvers is gettting so much stick. Apart from his mistake at Wolves, the lad's doing bloody well. We've conceeded 6 in 7 league games, which isn't bad at all.

Last night he had a great game, he did nothing wrong against Cardiff either.
 
Re: Theres something missing on here.

Thonker - you ought to know better. You castigate others for "negativity" after 3/4 bad performances, yet you yourself get carried away after two good ones. Some balance IS called for.

FWIW, I am impressed by the last two home performances but I also agree with some of what billymac has said, namely that we STILL have to improve if we are to make any serious challenge this term. IMHO Chilvers and Pugh are weak links, which can be improved upon with what we already have at the club, namely Wilson and Neal. DD gave his best performance in a white shirt without threatening the goal - well done DD - but he is still not the answer and will revert to being ineffective as we play against bigger centre-backs with most teams. I see that Simpson confirmed my observations of this, earlier, by his comments in tonight's LEP.

Whilst I thoroughly enjoy being fourth, I share Simpson's declared characteristic of being a "greedy git" and I recognise that we still need to improve to maintain that position and BUILD on it, for build on it we must. For far too long, PNE and its' fans have settled for second best through complacency - it is the will to improve, no matter what level you have reached, that will win the day in May. Long may the improvements continue.
