NWORRALL Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Your so embarrassing Argyle, what have you done. I suppose that's the modern trend of today, blame everyone but yourself. Who is making these stupid decisions, are you that desperate for Argyle's land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100%cornish Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Peter Reid has done all he could at plymouth hes paid bills out of his own pocket and gone months without wages but in all honestly he had to go none of the signings recently have been any good .I cannot see where a win is goin to come from it does look like this could be the end for my team argyle ,who in there right mind would want to take over there with no money coming in, the only man i could see getting them out of trouble would be is Neil Warnock but sadly hes doin a good job at qpr.I havnt got a clue who would come all the way down here and take over a sinking club or should that be sunk club.

There's only 1 no9 Posted September 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 The chairman has said it's all about results, does he not realise ,that they have a squad of players that have not been paid,they r not going to give100 per cent,I don't blame them,I blame the powers at be,this has been coming for years,bad management from the top,blame the board,not the manager and not the players.

Pablo Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 That's the footy way to repay loyalty! Joke club or what? Ridsdale, you need a reality check! You're team is crap, you're results are crap, you're administration is crap, you're finances are crap and you discard the only real asset you have. A manager who cared - and that in itself is a joke - . Yep, Mister Reid ( he deserves that respect ) has been unable to lift the club on the field but if it wasn't for him, the players would never have been on the field in the first place! Argyle done, but not quite -soon to be - dusted! Should that be dust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biscoveybear Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Ridsdale has obviously got someone coming in.Think its disgusting that Reid has been sacked,but maybe a change of manager may lift the players.Don't know whos going to come with no wages available,but Paul Harts name has been suggested.Certainly need someone in quickly or Argyle are going to be in the crap non league bracket with Truro City.

hoppit Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Who the hell does Risdale think he's going to get as Manager now? Just imagine the advert in the Herald, Wanted manager to run soccer team. salary none, 20 staff to organise only 2 of which are up to the task, may need to pay the gas bill from your own pocket,previous applicants may apply we'll take anyone. Closing date for application, 13 august 2014 we never rush at this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky 13 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Substitute Ridsdale for 'The Riddler' much more appropriate.Mr Reid even sold his own FA cup final medal for the cause.What has/is the Riddler prepared to give up ? Nothing I expect ! I know that 'on the pitch' results are important,but at this moment in time it is not the most important thing,I suspect that the true Argyle fans would at this moment in time swap the conference for a guarantee of the club's long term future.

Pablo Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Lucky Thirteen you're mostly correct but Reidy has kept the club afloat on his own. if he had walked away the club would have folded anyway. Give the bloke the respect he deserves mate. Give the club to the bloke totally. he at least cared about it, though I;'m not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Eddy Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 sorry lucky 13 you are wrong he was prepared to pay £1 for the club. so much for loyalty.Peter Reid will always be an Argyle LEGEND in my eyes. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING YOU DID FOR OUR CLUB and sorry the club let you down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky 13 Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 I have the utmost respect for Peter Reid,which was the point I was trying to make.If someone is succesful with a takeover,the 1st thing should be to ask Mr Reid if he wishes to be re-instated.In fact I would gladly give him the £1 required for him to be totally in charge.

matt george Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Had the pleasure of working with Peter Reid (and Adam Sadler his no.2) earlier this year, top blokes working under extremely difficult decisions, with the proper support Reidy will no doubt go onto greater success, unfortunately Argyles loss (albeit totally undeserved) will be somebody elses gain, pro football..it's a funny old game !!!

Tommy Matthews Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Some years ago I helped organise a mini soccer tournament for all the Arglye centres in Cornwall where the county's top young talent could be seen by the club's hierarchy. Needless to say, no one turned up, and having asked for a signed Argyle match ball to raffle to raise some local funds (all the centres were self-financing) we were told we had to pay for it! Some things just don't change. At least the Football In The Community side of things still flourishes inspite of another scandelous decision at the club. The club is now in the hands of the senior pros to run things until they get out of administration. The same senior pros who threatened to strike a couple of weeks ago because they haven't been paid again. Given the fact that Mr. Reid hasn't taken a salary and therefore it can't be costing the club anymore in wages, can someone please tell me if there's any logic in this decision?

B Manning Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 A smug Mr Risdale telling everyone it was purely on results, what on earth does he expect, best players all sold no money for replacements, the man is not on this planet.

Martin McHugh Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 No money, no management, no backbone and no common sense. I would love to see the advert for a permanent manager, " Sinking club requires manager with cash to pay bills and players. Must have the ability to sign players who are willing to accept some or no wage for a certain amount of time (dependant on results) . Miracles are essential in the successful applicants CV. Position has been recommended by Stevie Wonder, " I cant see anything wrong here" Colonel Gaddaffi, " I have found a quiet place to stand on a Saturday afternoon" Nick Leeson, "I reckon I could sort out the finances" Good luck Titanic!!

haylemed Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 the sacking of peter reid just about sums up the muppets on the board at argyle. how can a manager get results if he loses all his best players and is given no money to replace them.as for the two caretakers who are temporey in charge they say they have some new ideas to help the club.if so why didn,t they tell peter reid about them or don,t the players talk to the managers at argyle.there are a lot of dedicated and loyal fans at the club who must be gutted at the way this has been mishandled.where ever peter goes next that club will know what dedication and loyalty is.

Guest Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Beware Ridsdale having anything whatsoever to do with the club. If I were Mr Brent I'd send him packing as soon as he takes control. Ridsdale will bankrupt the club like he did at Leeds, Barnsley and Cardiff. Beware of a man who has spent the last few weeks looking for another club to take over. Whatever you do Mr Brent don't listen to Ridsdales sweet talk, he will ruin you and for god sake don't sell the club to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haylemed Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 leeds, barnsley, cardiff, argyle what a walking disaster risdale is. created mayhem then, looks for another club to ruin .pity the next club he gets involved in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
