I think the players are paid by the PFA but clubs still need ground staff, ticket sellers and stewards to be able to stage a game. None of them were getting paid.

In reality, he is not a very good manager anyway...

What odds David O'Leary being appointed the new Plymouth manager?

No, not at all taking in to account what he did for Sunderland! Using that analogy you would also have to say that Gus is also not a very good manager, you tool

The apathy on PASOTI is unbelievable.
Sounds like you are a Fan of what Ridsdale is doing.

No I am not but I can understand somebody wanting to buy the club and getting it at the cheapest possible price with the least likely overheads or debts to absorb. By insisting that Reid is not still employed is one big financial burden that he wouldn't have to undertake.
On what evidence do you make that stupid comment

Not in a job after a brief spell as manager with a side in United Arab Emirates.

Was he even taking a wage? I didn't think he was.
Who the f*** is going to want that job, I'm sure Reid was only there out of respect to the fans anyway.
Whatever is wrong with ridsdale, it's not a small thing - that's for sure

I would think that he still had a contract and if somebody bought the club and didn't want him in the job he would expect to be paid up as his allegiance has then gone.

Why ? I genuinely thought that this might finally get them off their arses and protesting

Reminds me of when Jimmy Case was sacked. Was that a 'bad' decision too? If Case hadn't gone, we wouldn't have got Gritt.
None of this is to do down Peter Reid and the impossible job he had. Peter Reid deserves great credit for his commitment he has shown, not to mention his immense dignity and compassion, as shown by paying bills and some staff wages from his own pocket. Yet perhaps the situation does require a new face, someone who doesnt carry the scars of the last few years of being around Plymouth Argyle.

Do they know where he lives? They should be harassing this scumbag every day of the week until he leaves cornwall

It's shocking. Some of them want to carry on regardless... "Get behind the team", "Chanting against Ridsdale will do no good", "He'll be gone soon", etc... Serious head-in-sand mentality going on, that means Ridsdale will get what he wants, and Plymouth will be more f***ed than Pippa Middleton if I ever get my hands on her.

The difference between us in 96/97 and Plymouth now is immense, we had money so wages were being paid and we had some fairly useful players who responded to Steve Gritt once Jimmy Case had been sacked and the crowd were 100% behind the manager and team unlike Plymouth fans who seem to have given up. We also had an enemy everyone was 100% against and there was one clear outcome we were fighting for and all the supporters etc were united unlike Plymouth who don't seem to know what they want.
Very sad and I fear the worst unless they get their acts together

Very true. But I think we should still be doing what we can to draw attention to their plight and show support to their fans.
