Wilkerson

[searlo]

I know it''s been mentioned on here already in a couple of threads, but I just cannot understand why he's been left out. He has been a rock this season. I'm fortunate enough to be attending our chairman's wedding reception this evening. I understand Andy is going and I think I'll have to ask him the question.

 

 

Every supporter from other teams I've spoken to this season has commented on how good Wilko is.

 

Words fail me....

[David Holden]

I wouldn't if I were you!

[Richard C]

I wouldnt ask him. I think we should wait and see what happens tommorrw against Stevenage. After this match we can comment!

[David Holden]

Also it's bad manners.

 

How would you like it if you were at a social function and some bloke came up to you and told you that you were crap at your job.

 

Andy has already explained why he did it, (and how many managers would even do that) and I understand that Paul took the decision like the professional that he is.

 

We are playing his old club tomorrow, do you really think that Andy is going to leave him out of the side.

[Student Scum]

Well said Dave.

I think that Wilks has been this season's outstanding player and a fantastic signing for the club (Well done Andy Ford) and we can deliberate on here for hours (and indeed we do) about best teams, formations, players etc, but it is Andy's job - we as supporters must respect his decisions.

Think back to the pre Andy Ford days.....dark place isn't it?

Don't knock him, our success is due to him (alright and quality players and decent admin - for once) give him all our support.

F*** it, if he wants to play HIMSELF tomorrow, I'll support him!.....well, bit drastic.......

[Ronnie]

Completly agree...Wilkerson was an inspired signing. But if you were the Manager and your team conceded four goals in three consecutive games you would have to try to change something. Giving the keeper a break for a couple of games is an obvious option. Wilks must have been pretty shell shocked after those games even though he wasn't at fault. I think Andy will bring him back tomorrow.

On the other hand.....

 

.....Searlo could ask and we could all look at his black eye tomorrow! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

 

Seriously, Wilko WILL be back tomorrow!

[searlo]

But if he'd been playing tuesday, we'd have got at least a point.

 

Seriously I probably wont ask Andy, although I may have a chat with him about our dismal run in a concerned way showing my sincere empathy of course. Then, when I've gained his confidence, I can say "while we're at it, why did you drop wilko?"

 

I'm joking of course.....

Well Searlo does have more in common with Buster bloodvessel than Elvis !!!

 

If Andy's got any sense he will tell him to [color:"red"] lip up fatty[/color] , and that we [color:"red"] can can [/color] get out of the tight spot we are in at the moment. Hopefully the players and Andy will be off the [color:"red"] special brew [/color] tonight, and that we will be [color:"red"]walking on sunshine [/color] tomorrow , as its [color:"red"] just a feeling [/color] but I think that we will get the 3 points , and [color:"red"]that'll do nicely.

Listening to Wilko's interview on RK after the game, I think being left out made him realise that conceding 12 goals in 3 games wasnt his fault.

 

Watching from the stands must also help a keeper appreciate better where the problems lie and thus change the way he deals with matters on the pitch.

Nope, didn't change a thing.....three or four top saves and ninety minutes worth of shouting and swearing that no one can understand. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

We looked better at the back with Wilko and it took something special to beat him, I noticed at the start of the second half he got a terrific round of applause from the Stevenage fans, their loss is our gain!
