Torquay United Fans Forum

He has no respect from his players, they know he is an egotistical lier.
He thinks they don't know he is a lier but they do and as a result they do not respect him and will not play for him.
Even the players he has brought in know he thinks he is Pep Guardiola and laugh at him, so why would seasoned professionals do any different?
Knill kept us up -fact.
Blame Knill all day for me but he kept us up and in my opinion would have done again given the chance.
This bloke took us down and has continued to take us to

Interesting this, a guy without a club before he joined us. Do good footballers struggle for a job?
Apparently offered a pay as you play contract by us which was very probably at or very near to the national minimum wage and he accepts it.
Does ok from a defending point of view although the team play their worst football and get their worst results dropping to the lowest point in world history while he is in it.
He is liked so much by the fans that they offer to stump up another pittance to pay him. He either decides to decline a contract or isn't even offered one because apparently he is leaving.
I didn't offer to pay him a bean. Goodbye. Move on. Up the Gulls.

Which is exactly what you do, you don't turn up.
Yet you are the most opinionated arsehole on this forum and that's going some.

I feel desperately sorry for Ricey as I do for all our players when they are slated by the people on this forum and I state people rather than supporters.

I am a Gull and he is costing us points. As a result we are dropping down the ladder. However, he is a human being and at this moment in time, he is in need of support, but he is not getting it.

Instead he is being raped on here by people who don't even know the meaning of support never mind having the quality of character to practice it.

There are a few people on here who need to revise their opinions or at least keep their opinions to themselves. I am in complete awareness and agreement that a forum is all about expressing opinions and ideas but slander, libel and direct abuse is out of order and if Ricey was one of mine, there are a few people on this forum who would now be in intensive care.

Come on boys, onwards & upwards.
Come on you Gulls.

DUANE - Superb frontman yesterday. With back to goal his strength and intelligent hold up play was brilliant. Must be a nightmare to mark.

TONGY - Cool, calm, confident and looks very very good now.

AJALA - Very busy in the middle, won us loads of possession. Maybe just a little coaching needed on his release of the ball.

MAC - Excellent centre half, as good as Pearce on yesterdays performance and better than last seasons over-rated Anthony O'Connor.

RICE - What a keeper. 3 excellent saves yesterday and looks very much the part.

Forevertufc,
In answer to your concerns about CH being backed by having finances provided regarding overnight stays prior to playing on long away trips etc.
We have trained today at Derby Counties training ground en-route to an overnight stay in Lincolnshire. No worries there then.
Up the Gulls.

You should know.

No I didn't know that and thankyou for the info.

Hope to god he's better at RB than CH cos otherwise he'll be sh1t.

No disrespect to anyone here but for Christ's sake anyone who has ever played football should understand that it is ten times easier to play at centre half than full back,

Ye ok drop a player that looked dodgy to me despite getting mom against Welling to play our best player in his best position but who are these idiots that are asking for a dodgy centre half to play at full back?

Listen you people, our full backs are responsible for the current world financial crisis, the persecution of the human race throughout history and the sh1t weather but don't for one minute think that putting a sh1t centre half or even a decent centre half in that position is the answer. Full back is a very difficult position to play so have some respect.

Is this a football forum on views for tomorrows game or a Judith Chalmers/Wincey Willis type sort of what's the weather gonna be like on the Riviera this coming home match?

If Pearce is fully fit I imagine he will come back in, possibly for Tonge with Angus moving across to right-back. I also think Ajala may have forced his way in to the 11, probably at the expense of Briscoe who, like Benyon on Tuesday could find himself out of the 16 all together with Chapell taking a place on the bench.

You would change a winning side?
You would change a winning side in an area that didn't concede?
You would change an established full back that did nothing wrong for a centre half that looked out of sorts even in his own position?
Ok pal, nice one.

I'll do it from now on if you want and if someone else decides they want to do it I'll still do it anyway just to be an awkward tw@t.
That Austrian kid had a fertile imagination but I used to get a migraine reading it.
I'm a bit more diplomatic as Jim Royle was, my fuc£in arse.
Not everything I write will be total bollocks.....just most of it.
Total pre-match opinionated bigotry. Enjoy at least until I get banned from the site.

Thanks Taxilady for the explanation of why Austrian Andy is absent from the site.

Not to worry, he'll be back next year after York are relegated and we are gloriously promoted back to the dizzy heights of league 2 as Conference Champions.
