RW seriously pi55ed off

[PKM]

Just listen to the club interview, he sounds completely hacked off.
Didn’t want to lose players, didn’t want loans with no experience, can understand the club being tight on the purse strings, said through gritted teeth.
Criticism we’ve left it till the last minute to do deals.
Not a happy bunny at all.

I'll be shocked if they're worse than Drinan.

It's been removed.
What happened to Transparency from the Club.
Imagine if he leaves over this

[gshaw]

Surprised by just how annoyed he was about it, seemed on the surface we'd done decent business but he's not happy with leaving it late for the senior pro striker. Not exactly convinced it's just the bookies he's unhappy with at the lack of faith of a playoff push either.

Contrast that with how relaxed and happy Ling was in his interview it's a bit odd.

[PKM]

Normally you keep that sort of stuff in house.
Can’t imagine Lingy being too happy with what was said.
I think RW will leave at the end of this season.
He’s effectively said we’ve got no ambition.

[B.whitehouse+10more]

Ritchie needs to get a grip, 3 match ban, another 4 bookings today, whinging interview that’s been removed. Maybe he’s on his way out of the door no one is bigger than the club.

[Long slender neck]

There will surely be a better pick of strikers in the summer? He's a right bitch sometimes.

Haven't seen the interview as it was taken off before I was able to watch it (thank you Wales v Scotland). Can't lie, but I can't see us reaching the play offs this season. It's a similar position to when McAnuff took over with play offs as the objective, although it looks unlikely.

Remember this is a guy with fire and drive to be the best he can be at the highest level. If he sees an opportunity for success he will want to exploit that and won't accept being held back.

Just wondering who those strikers we missed out on were...

I disagree , Wellens can take us to the Championship, not many others will

Spoilt brat mode, major sulk, Good impression of Kevin or Perry

Interview is still there as far as I can see

[RedDwarf 1881]

Then in that case why do we leave our transfer business so late . Is it down to Lingy wanting to save on wages or not . I wonder what the truth is

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Did make me laugh that Lingy, in his interview, said we did some business by getting cooper and O’Neil in which was 2 and 3 weeks into the 4 week window

I thought he was just being honest . If the club did leave its transfer business too late then it's a lesson we must learn for the future .

By usual standards having two in ahead of the final day or two is early, certainly felt that way

I like the honesty from Richie, but at some point this might be a problem for our owners.

[EliotNes]

Certainly sounded peed off to me and if I was ML, I'd be annoyed at what he was saying and inferring by his words. Thank goodness we won otherwise we might have seen a real hissy fit.

[EliotNes]

I totally agree.

[Mistadobalina]

On a good run of form, have shipped two players who weren't good enough for this level and never fit regardless - it's a weird energy to be this negative and sours what has obviously been a really positive relationship.

It's this kind of attitude that will put off bigger employers. Owners don't like managers who air dirty linen in public and who can't accept a budget.

[Top of the JES]

Seriously pissed off - I don’t think so,I would say he’s peeved rather than anything more we know Drinan was one of his favourites but he actively helped to get him a new club. - until we know why the experienced striker fell through its hard to make an informed comment but I’m guessing it was Harry McKirdy.

[Long slender neck]

Business being done 'late' just seems to be the nature of things, its not like we're the only club doing this.

We've lost experience but they werent playing.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

One thing I will say is Richie was very clear that part of him signing a new contract (maybe even something in his contract) was around having a certain budget. Fair enough if he’s annoyed that we’ve dipped below that whilst our best player is now done for the season

[Adz]

Don't really see the problem with it other than turns going back he seems happy with the players going out. He sounded more annoyed with how it played out, rather than the clubs decisions.
