Well, no one has really said anything about it, so I will. Wellens is showing himself up and needs to get a grip.

You need to get a grip. He’s turned our form around and we are top of the form table for the last 5 games. He could stand there naked for all I care (might even enjoy it)Chief crazy horse wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:39 pm Well, no one has really said anything about it, so I will.

Yes agreed, we would be equally upset if Ian Evatt put his hands out to try and stop Galbraith from nicking space, which he was also doing, as do many players.
What I'm talking about has got absolutely nothing to do with him turning our form around?Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:49 pmYou need to get a grip.

There wasn’t at all , he touched lightly, probably like when you are going by someone.
I don't understand why he doesn't get Paul Terry to do the "Hassle" the ref/lino; abuse the opposition stuff. That's what Ross used to do in JE's reign. Let the No. 2 get the cards, not the main man.Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 5:17 pm Don’t blame him for doing it.
It’s just a shame one of the lesser coaching staff haven’t got the same mentality as him and done it instead of Richie.
I wouldn't change a single thing about Richie . It makes him what he is which is a bloody good manager . I'm just very grateful we have him at Orient .Cheshunto wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 6:02 pmYes agreed, we would be equally upset if Ian Evatt put his hands out to try and stop Galbraith from nicking space, which he was also doing, as do many players.
It’s not right but it should be down to the officials, not the managers………….The officials weren’t great yesterday but I think Richie has had three Red cards now and I guess will get a ban of some kind.
Having said all that, I love Richie’s passion but just hope he can channel it a bit.

He’s too hands on, even has to micro manage who stands where at throw ins.EliotNes wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 6:15 pmI don't understand why he doesn't get Paul Terry to do the "Hassle" the ref/lino; abuse the opposition stuff.

A bit of straw clutching there but on the whole not a bad attempt in his defence.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 6:29 pmIt has, actually.Chief crazy horse wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 6:11 pmWhat I'm talking about has got absolutely nothing to do with him turning our form around?Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:49 pm

The type of character he is has no doubt helped him turn our form around. He wears his heart on his sleeve, is aggressive and wants to win and he wants his team to reflect that. Take away his ‘edge’ and the team and fans suffer too. I’ll take the odd red card as long as we don’t lose our heads on the pitch (which we didn’t) and he continues to be passionate and aggressive
Unfortunately Nessy since then I think the rules have changed and only ONE person is allowed to stand in the technical area, which is nearly always Richie. PT and MH have to stand back.EliotNes wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 6:15 pmI don't understand why he doesn't get Paul Terry to do the "Hassle" the ref/lino; abuse the opposition stuff.

Just imagine what he was like as a player! I reckon he's calmed down by comparison.
