Is Dick Knight answering his critics?

[Caveman]

Having made the second signing and it looking likely Richards will return, is Dick Knight answering the whinging moaning f*ckwits we have as so called supporters?

 

[Perry Milkins]

Calm down Colin.

 

[clippedgull]

Looks like it.

Hopefully will calm things down a bit.

For me, it's the sensible, considered supporters Dick has to answer to. Whinging, moaning fuckwits are, after all, simply whinging, moaning fuckwits.

How do you differentiate?

Don't know. Telling Dick Knight that it's obvious we're not going to sign anyone is a kind of litmus test, I suppose.

Quite right TLO

Under Wilkins, we have always signed players. Some have been crap (Williams, for example), some have been good (Forster, O'Callaghan, Flinders, Richards etc). A struggling club like ourselves can only be happy when players are actually signed, as that is clearly a challenge in itself. I think most of the hostility towards Knight centres around the price of tickets these days, which I believe is unavoidable. Knight clearly has the best interests of the club at heart, reducing ticket prices is not a sure-fire way to get supporters back, signing new players might be...

and relies on astute business and comercial management of a football club which I doubt many of his detractors have

I was saying a few weeks back that I hoped we would get a couple of Journeymen pro's with one or two decent seasons left in them rather than all this non league bollocks we seemed to enjoy before.

Now we have Thomson and Forster whocan do a job, so yep, I am happy.

BH..define 'do a job' for me?

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

As far as I am aware and I have heard it a few times on SCR he said Im in negotiation with 5 players. I dont think he said that we will see 5 new players. Maybe he did but so what.

So even if its 2 out of 5 then fair enough.

As I said on another thread its been TWO weeks and Bas hasnt walked into another club so maybe DK or Wilkins or whoever was right....?

Do a job of playing decent football to be precise. Forster ,for me, brings a lot to the squad, in terms of maturity and work rate and Thomson (judging by comments on Falkirks site) looks to be another hard working pro.

Obviously you see things differently?

As well as a TRUE LOYAL SUPPORTER. Don't forget he use to stand on the North Stand terrace with the likes of many of us.

Come on guys admit it without our trusty DICK where would we be!!

 

[Spider]

I'm pleased with the sound of the two signings we've made so far, and if Richards comes back then I would be happy if we didn't get any more this window. Having said that I think there are still areas we need to improve, mainly the wings (please please please can we sign Currie?), but another forward would be useful because if Forster gets injured we are buggered. Elder is possibly going to step up to the plate but one scrappy goal from a corner does not instantly turn him into a player who can score regularly.

Nobody, the old officials of the club included have ever been able to confirm that but none the less if he adds Richards to the 2, one young , one journeyman then I shall be pleased.


I am not saying he wasnt but Ron Pavey the old secretary said that he had never heard of him prior to the take over and RP knew everybody even me as a supporter.
