Player Ratings v Crewe

[Withdean Wanderer]

But what about the transfers of Forster, O'Callaghan, Richards?! How much was Wilkins involved in those also successful transfers? Where do you draw the line?

No idea - at a guess, i'd say Wilkins has a big say in some instances, probably more of them then not. But i don't know that.

But Murray - a Dick Knight signing for sure.

Hendo was slagged week after week for exactly what Kuipers did on sat, parrying the ball out to a strikers feet !!!

Lucky for Michel that the striker was gash, and why he blamed defenders for it is unbelivable.

or the incident in the 1st half when the fdm come charging out to the left touch line to clear the ball the same as hendo did when eagles scored for watford but luckily this time the player didnt have eagles ability

Well although I'm not suggesting you are doing this, if someone were to try and use this against Wilkins, they would be wrong to do so. In common terms, the manager makes the signings and I don't think it is any different at the Albion. Wilkins will have had some say in the signing of Murray, wouldn't it totally undermine his authority if he didn't? Signing Murray was a risk, £300k for someone unproven at this level is quite a lot in my book. Fair enough, well done Barry Lloyd and Dick Knight if Wilkins had less to do with it, but imagine the backlash if it had gone wrong...

I love the way that people cast the blame, when they have no knowledge whatsoever of what actually happened.

This is so spot on it ought to be adopted as the motto of this board.

Is someone going to take that shovel from him now?
