    Look back on my posts
    You will find I have slated Gordon Shephard...........ONCE
    And that was during the Flinder and Togwell transfers when it seemed Togwell was transfered as a sweetner in the Flinders transfer
    It was written in the Chronicle that this was not the case and I appologised for my comments
    I have also said about Shep that I don't think he understands the show business side of football
    I have met Shep and he seems to be a decent bloke
    I have never said we owt to get rid of Shep
    Regarding Andy Ritchie
    I have never said we owt to sack AR
    I think AR is doing a decent job with what he has got

    If you look back at my comments which some people think are negative, it boils down to one thing

    WE NEED MORE PLAYERS !!!!

    And we need players in vital positions ie strikers
    We have a weak squad
    From the outside looking in it looks (repeat - looks) like we are trying to do the Championship on the cheap
    Most people on here have belatedly come to the same conclusion
    What I think is making the problem much worse is the mixed messages coming out of the club
    PC - bums on seats
    GS - money to spend on players
    GS - offering money to AR for players
    AR - can't bring in players cos their wages are too high

    Now then, if Shep had come out at the start of the season and said 'we ant got any money so there will be no players coming in'.
    Then people would be disappointed but they would accept it
    But this is not what is actually happening.
    The result is a load of rumours e.g. Shep can't talk to AR etc etc etc

    So in a nutshell - I aint got a problem with the directors or the management of the club but I would like to see them strengthen the team to make sure we stay in this division. For example;
    Cover for Colgan
    Centre half
    Left back
    Two strikers
