I thought they were a disgrace today
ALL Docherty from the start occasionally sadler
on comes Beckles hardly any acknowledgment
"worse than askey"
"rickets time to go"
beckles scores town win
all jumping up and down
SING WHEN WERE WINNING WE ONLY SING WHEN WERE WINNING

At least their chant of 'you don't know what you're doing' seemed to persuade SR to change his mind and not put Payne on.

Or alternatively the fans criticised the starting line up then when Ricketts finally brought two key players on who changed the game they were pleased.
What did you expect? If we'd have lost that game we'd have been in the relegation zone. Should the fans all not have celebrated the winner for the sake of consistency?

I was having a disagreement with a friend of mine who shared the same views as Pilch's. Ordinarly I'm not in favour of booing/abusing the players & management but from my perspective:
- We had won 3 in 17 games under the new manager - We had lost the previous 2 games against relegation rivals - We were playing a relegation rival and someone who hadnt won in 8 games. - 3 of our better performers this season were sat on the bench
We then put in what could be described as best as inept performance in the first half, the only defence you could make is the conditions were against us. However second half the performance continued in the same vein and once we went 1 nil down then it was no surprise
Personally I'm glad the fans bothered to tell Roland/Ricketts what they thought, other than a few moans/boos at the end.

A winner is always going to be celebrated more wildly than an equaliser. Do you worry about how Steve Arnold might feel if he were to read your regular critcisms of him, btw?

For the last month or so I’ve heard and see comments like ‘if we go behind today it’s going to turn toxic’. It’s almost like people were looking forward to it, which I’m sure is absurd.
Is bizarre how Docherty never gets his chant when he’s on the pitch, only when he’s on the bench.
It’s a tough one because we’re clearly a bang average lower league one team, as so many clubs are bunched together points wise, so should there be such a negative vibe? Wycombe have 1 point from their last six games should it not be them that are terrified of ‘sleepwalking into league two’?
We all just need to hold our nerve, there will be twists and turns every weekend now.

Some footballers are more popular than others, thats life, generally attacking players will get a bigger cheer than your defensive players. When Beckles came on the game was flat and generally people were sat in silence, whereas in the circumstances Docherty was always going to get a big cheer.

you're not wrong but I think in these examples it was a case of fans not welcoming Beckles simply because it wasn't Docherty being brought on, even though it was a forced substitution I felt sorry for Omar as he'd obviously got caught up in this one tracked plot the fans had with Docherty im sure there is a better way of describing it but I feel Rickets, just like askey has zero chance of progressing because the fans won't let him

To be fair Beckles conceded the free kick they scored off ok fair enough good job no one applauded him when he came on I and many around me applauded him. After I told Ricketts what I thought about his like for like change, keeping a back 5 and the same system which was working in a must win game.

As I said in another thread, I generally don't like it when the crowd turns nasty.
However, Ricketts has had an air of complacency about him for some time and needed to be told that he needs to do better.
To be fair to him, I think he got the message and at least didn't try to dress today up as a good performance in his post-match interview, but I've seen very little to convince me that he knows what he's doing

When he was brought on it was mostly ironic cheers to make the point that he should have been on the field a lot earlier. Why the hell wasn't he on the field? Except Whalley he is our most creative player.

I have to say I’m enjoying having an impact on what subs are to be made, well done to the 5700 fans for getting us the result today! As for Ricketts, clueless - unless he changes his bizarre ways I still hope he leaves the Club ASAP, whether we stay up or not.
And by the way Pilch, you are seriously embarrassing yourself on this messageboard at the moment😂

I don’t often agree with Pilch on this forum so unfamiliar territory for me but ...I agree with Pilch! I was pretty embarrassed by what I heard from the stands today.
We’re still in the s**t and the only way we are going to get out of it is by showing character and staying together. On and off the pitch.
Post mortems can wait until it’s over. We’ll deal with whatever we need to deal with then.

How did you make it clear to Mr Ricketts what you thought? A well written letter? An email? My guess is booing or jeering that anyone stood on that field could take to mean your feelings were directed at them.
