"I'm proud of them lads in there, they've given their all and they're hurting. The liner denied us three stone wall penalties and the ref's had a shocker!"

Normal Saturday then?

Bore off now Matt eh!! Same sh*te every week!! If Moult,Jones,Richman and Densmore don't want to play in the Evostick for another manager then they know where the door is!!

Sorry, I must apologise, this was not an actual quote, it was my take on things based on every other interview in recent weeks. Apologies to all concerned....

The first line of the interview is basically the same thing you said:

Quote
We should have had three penalties, and there was a shout for a fourth, but we got none. On top of that, they equalised with a penalty that should never have been given. That kind of officiating shouldn't be allowed. When you are fighting for your job and fighting to get away from the bottom of the table, you just want a fair crack of the whip. That's all you ask.

So, if I have read that latest Matt Doughty interview correctly, we are now being held to ransom by his long-standing chum from their days together at Rochdale (who has one eye on keeping his current role as player-coach); a couple of individuals who have been deeply involved in two consecutive relegations for Altrincham FC and another player who has hardly kicked a ball all season and has yet to overcome a major injury.

Exactly what kind of alternative universe have we entered here?

We've been bobbins all season.

Not so much "bobbin' along" as "bobbins all along"  >:(

It's all very strange, although nothing should surprise me this season. It's an enlightening interview and I don't blame John the messenger at all.

The interview answers are  very reasonable - we should have had three penalties and arguably did deserve to win - until the last section. Doughty says he was appointed in January, but he returned to the club in September, and became caretaker manager in December. I appreciate it takes time to build a team, but he has been around the club nearly the entire season.

Then certain of the more senior players want to play for him but may not want to play for another manager, even though three of them have previously done so here? What? I know managers in a strong position may feel they can dictate their terms, or even attempt to bully, a board, but we have just been relegated.

Staggered. I did think the last 12 months may have been an elaborate and unfunny April Fools joke, but it's April 2nd now.

Not really a statement rather one last grasp at the job.

All about him.

The weekend is now over. When we expect to hear a rallying cry or some apology by our beloved leader?

To be a manager amongst the many qualities needed such as tactical ..ability to move players in amd out..contacts et etc ...you need to be lucky.

Cant help thinking buzz is out on all counts....although he did fluke a win at boston...
