First Wizard 0 Posted October 11, 2005 Or so it would seem. Over on carrowroad.net they are in the process of arranging a meeting with Mr Munby over a controversial poll they carried out on their website. It just goes to show that a fans message board can reach those in charge. And that our club cares enough to consult us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dig at Pinkun site or suggestion that anyone that''s not in the ever diminishing sack Worthy gang doesn''t care about the club? Have to say though, at least you''re fairly consistent in your rabid anti-Worthyness. Unlike many, who are either now silent (hoping he fails soon?) or claiming that all they really wanted was to start winning and weren''t really anti-W as such or most laughingly of all that Worthy has in fact been reading this board, realised where he was going wrong and changed his ways. What will you do if we get promoted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
As my login causes problems [ :o) ] 0 Posted October 14, 2005 Oh dear me who would possibly have the gall to say that Worthington reads this board and changes his ways? Surely he reads carrowroad.net for ideas! As the recent improvement proves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerzy Krukowski 5 Posted October 14, 2005 Do you actually believe that? I can picture it now, "Steve and Doug, I thought I knew a bit about football and you too, what with being professionals and that, but I''ve been reading the pinkun message board, damn, there''s some amazing info on there I''d never thought of. Like let''s start trying to pass the ball better and score more goals. I''ve realised where we''ve been going wrong and if it wasn''t for the wife and kids I''d take the advice of that crazy maverick 1stWazzock or something and resign"IMO it''s the pairing of Doc and Davenport that has been the major factor in the (albeit short) recent run of form, with hughes and hucks good form. What exactly might Worthy have taken from this board? Yes, he''s dropped Fleming (good idea) but isn''t that more to do with Davenport arriving? Who here suggested dropping Shaks or that Doc would start to get it together so well? It would be nice if he reads the board, someone at the club probably keeps an eye on what the mood of the fans are, but that is most likely better served by listening to the crowd at games. There are people that know about football here, offer sound observations (DD, ZLF, Herb to name a few) but if anyone thinks Worthy cares what the majority of largely fickle fans with zero managerial or professional experience think (I count myself in the the latter group) then you need a reality check and to eat some humble pie while at it.

I doubt it''s true that Worthy "doesn''t care what the fans think". I know it''s been aired many times already, but some people don''t seem to (want to) see what really went on there.The reporter said something to the effect of "what do you think of the fans'' reaction to McV''s substitution" to which Worthy said "I don''t care, I make the decisions" in what was clearly an exasperated state of mind as many of us were after that game.Some might say he was accepting responsibility for a decision he took. But I just don''t think it''s right to extrapolate that statement made in the heat of the moment to mean he doesn''t EVER care what the fans think! This club has one of the best relationships around with its fans.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
As my login causes problems [ :o) ] 0 Posted October 14, 2005 I detect an air of agreement. So SPat, Amarillo and Wiz all think Worthy listens to fans probably through reading the Message Boards himself, but if not through Hucks passing it on. And as clearly demonstrated by the seriousness the club attaches to www.carrowroad.net it must be that one ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He missed a penalty that cost us the match yesterday.The predictable boring Worthy out posters would be nowhere to be seen had that gone in, we''d be celebrating another win.So by your twisted logic, he should be given a free transfer eh Wiz?

westoncanary. 0 Posted October 16, 2005 Well said Herb, although anyone can miss a penalty so I don''t think Hux deserves anyone''s venom. On the other hand, it''s not Worthy''s fault he missed either so lay off him. IF Deano & Hux had scored those 2 penalties we would either just outside or just inside the play-offs, as it is we are only 3 points from it anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
