Winslow United on the hunt for new 1st team manager


Recommended Posts

WB, cheer up!! It seems he was very well regarded at his last club if that link is anything to go by!!

 

Here is what one disgruntled fan had to say:-

 

A real shame the Management decided to take this route with regards to Kit and just shows how narrow minded and misled some may be.

Perhaps with more support from the Management Kit would not have found himself in a 50/50 position.

 

I hope for the sake of BTFC that the Management understand just how much Kit did for this club.

 

He took over the 1st team at short notice, brought in a ressy Manager and coach, booked training sessions, took training sessions, handled the money, washed the kit, organised and put on the quiz night, taxied players to and from matches and managed the team on and off the field.

 

And not even a thankyou at the presentation night.

 

Players are fuming, and Kit has been treated in a shoddy manner to say the least (probably still at A&E having knives removed from his back)

 

The Management have got big boots to fill on this one."

 

I hope you will give him the benefit of the doubt WB and support your club. If you're bottom at Xmas, fine, but stay positive mate.

Thing is Jonno it's results that matter, not knocking the work he done but I expect BTFC expected a better league position than they got, but then as WB said, his track record on the field wasn't exactly littered with success.

Appreciate the pep talk Jonno, Ive been involved at the club as a supporter, player and supporter 25 years so my support for the club is in no question I think. It's not just his appointment but the fact there were not only better choices but truly excellent choices who showed a real desire to manage the club and who would no question have delivered success. I know I sound like a broken record and as I have said before I hope i'm proved wrong. But when people of the standing and experience step down from the club over this that speaks volumes.

Well whatever happens WB, I hope the team give you a little something to cheer this season. And if he really is that bad, I'm sure the club will realise their error and install someone along the lines of those you have mentioned. Good luck for the season and keep smiling.

All the others where maybe after a large budget and therefore could/would not be employed.

Hi Rhodes I'm disappointed you haven't got round to answering my questions about your knowledge of Kit Bamber, when you get a moment I'd be very interested to hear.

Winslow Boy - I have a suspicion that you have a hidden agenda with Kit Bamber as if you were such a loyal and devoted Winslow United fan you would just reluctantly accept the appointment like everyone has done with Roy Hodgson when we all wanted Harry Redknapp

Please explain what my "hidden agenda" could possibly be after you share your knowledge on how you know Bamber is a "decent" manager by answering my earlier questioms on it. Your line about me being loyal is so obvious I won't bite but I'll just ask YOU a question what does accepting have to do with loyalty? Ben Johnson and George Washington did not accept British sovereignty and were branded trailers and accused of treason but they wanted something different for their nation and fought against the status quo and how does history remember them? I am being slightly high drama and a little tongue in cheek but my point is obvious. Winslow United will always be bigger and come before any one person for me. And living in London expressing my views on a forum that was designed for that is hardly "cloak and daggers" is it? 25 years associated and as a player who when the team has struggled has come back from work as far a field as Hungary has played a number of times the day after getting out of hospital, has played on injuries till he can't walk, has organised events to raise thousands for tw club but I'm sure you have done much more than all of that.

I honestly don't know why you bother Winslow. Even now you pay a respect to a question which will never be reciprocated.

I know but am so genuinely disappointed and angry about all this I can't hold it in. Also when one of the "long term observers first time posters" jump in with some nonsense they should perhaps read threads like this and realise that this is why threads can go the way they do. I could be insulted by his questioning of my loyalty and would be within my rights to give him both barrels but I have chosen not to. As for Godwins law that is one of the most tenuous and ridiculous arguments and the post is ironic in its invoking of said law. Rhodes has the freedom to behave and say what he wants and everyone else has the right to respond however they choose too, a clue right there is one person right and everyone else wrong? Or is it much more likely the majority are right? I have tried to interact in the proper way and he is not so I shall await another naive white knight to stand up for Rhodes till they see the truth. Anyway heard some more news today from a very reliable source

Yep dear god! Makes the appointment look EVEN worse. Dear oh dear oh dear going to be a dreadful season that will prob end up with relegation. The league should never have put Tik Tok in div 1 over us and that opinion has been proved right and now our committee (use that loosely two of the more knowledgeable and experiences members didn't get a vote and others not on committee did including one bloke who is on committee of another club got a vote! You couldn't make it up) have compounded that with a poor appointment that inevitably will set us back further.

Good luck next season.

Winslow Boy - you've won promotion already!!

 

Two points worth bearing in mind:-

 

This will drive Rhodes round the facking bend.

 

The season hasn't even started yet and you could have a new change of manager by October or before if the current doesn't get results!

 

Oh, and another one, think of all those new grounds you will be visiting!

Would think I've played at all but being based where I am I would think only ones like Cockfosters I may go and watch. However I won't be actively involved like others I can't back the choice and therefore will be very much watching and waiting from afar. I worried for our results this year in div2 let alone div1. Grumble grumble grumble. Might change my name to Victor Meldrew lol
