The Windmill On The Shirt Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 I always look forward to local derbys on Friday nights, especially this one against Saltash, it is usally a tastey game and should attract a decent crowd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I see Stuart Dudley's much hyped side at the start of the season struggled against a very poor Torpoint outfit last night. Saltash for me have had a very poor start to the campaign with the players they have at their disposal, Yet Dudley still walks around with an air of arrogance??? I think He needs to realise that having more badges then a cub scout leader doesn't guarentee results!! As an Ashes fan I would love to see where a manager of the calibre of a Dave Leonard or Dave Jones could take our talented squad!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Not to sure?? Even Kev's spell in charge we were playing much better stuff then we are at the minute. And to be fair to Kev He is really no more then a bucket man that got chucked in at the deep end (Which couldn't of been easy for him due to his little legs)!!! I had really high hopes under Dudley but have been hugely dissapointed!!! Alot of the Signings dont look good enough, Maddison looks like he should be good but is completely in-effective with absolutely NO end product and the others are along the same lines!! We have tried to strenghen by signing a handfull of the poorer LISKEARD players??? Hopefully their is a turnaround in form soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paignton-nick74 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 As far as 0-0's go, this was an ok match. Attendance estimated at 230 by Phil Hiscox. Hopefully I'll be back at Kimberley for the FA VAse tie with the Bucks next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobVP Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 The Pragmatist - what a great 'fan' you are! I was at the game last night and thought Saltash were unlucky. Your obviously another player pretending to be a 'fan' who has an axe to grind. This website is fast becoming a laughing stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusty Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I agree, you must be a really loyal fan slagging all the current squad off. Torpoint are not a bad side and will start to climb the league. Make your judgements on teams at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Au contrere mon frere..... Im 52 years old and havn't kicked a ball in many a moon!! As a "fan" are you not aloud to voice your concern on here as to what uconsider a poor start and performances that seem to have gone backwards. If I thought this forum was a "Cheerleading" contest i would never have posted. When there good rest assured Ill praise them. Haha.... Thats a very educated comment "Judge at the end of the season", Try telling that to the premiership managers out of work at christmas. Unfortunetly football isn't like that, your judged on the present!!! Unless your gonna tell me Dudley has a 5 year plan. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 long old way to go yet. Saltash are in the top 6. They didnt look at a bad side when St Blazey played them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Are people honestly trying to say their not try surprised at the ashes stuttering start??? I genuinely thought we'd be the side to run Bodmin close this year. See if they drop points to Torpoint at home and class it as a good result. Maybe my expectations were too high???

RobVP Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Not a cheerleading contest, but i don't think a real 'fan' would publicly criticise individual players and state they are not good enough blah blah blah.

ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Huh?? Im not sure i wanna confront the manager over poor performances at peninsula level. If I have hurt Richard Maddison with my "scolding attack" of his football ability, Id like to publicly say im NOT at all sorry. This is mens football not under 11's...... And if its all the same with you, id like to voice my opinions from behind the saftey of my keyboard. Many Thank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastyman Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Give credit to Torpoint Athletic, they have improved in recent week and look a far better team than when i saw them play Newquay. At no point did I expect us to be competing with the likes of Bodmin Town at the top of the league! Stuart Dudley has assembled a side within a limited budget and I think given time they will be around the top at the end of season. I think as supporters we do have a right to comment, but let's not get personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Dev Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Limited budget compared to who?manchester city and chelsea.think most people know that saltash have a bigger budget than the majority in that league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePragmatist Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Personal...... By saying I didn't think a lad is doing enough to effect games in the final 3rd. Are we really that sensitive??? And this is from "Pastyman" Who absolutely slaughtered Shane Krac on here for a tackle on Drummond which wasn't even deemed a foul..... Ironic that. The budget comment is also ridiculous, for this level Saltash's budget is by no means low. EXCUSE MENTALITY springs to mind!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsman10 Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 i wonder if saltash will look at any of the local based players or still continue with the same faces from across the bridge . ?? always use to be a club that had a lot of local players in among the squad.

The Train Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 If the report reads correct, I'm sure 3 out of the 4 goalscorers where 3 of "liskeard weaker players" from last season, to put saltash 3rd in the league, 1 point behind top spot, with an interesting game against Bodmin this Friday when anything can happen, going by previous seasons I'd say this has been saltash's best start for a number of years "the pragmatist " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePragmatist Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Yeah cracking start.... We've manged to get knocked out of a cup, drop awful points to Blazey, Torpoint ect.... And are already off the pace without really playing anyone of real note. The win against Elburton was a good 1 without ever looking spectacular. If as I suspect you are one of the poorer Liskeard players or potentially a parent riting on their behalf, Please dont take my comments personally. Football is all about opinions and unfortunely apart from Kanache who is a goal threat from midfield (but still needs to get fit), The others "I" think are not good enough.

The Train Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Get a grip mate, didn't realise saltash where Barcelona. If you are so called fan of saltash united I'm sure they wouldn't want you bringing this unwanted criticism of the club which has had a good solid start. This is swpl football. No player in this league is perfect else they wouldn't be playing this standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddie Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Really mate ??.... A forum is the only way to slag me off ?. 4 goals in 7 games and 6 or 7 assist's says otherwise.

ThePragmatist Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 **** its nothing personal and like I said its only your delivery in the final 3rd that I feel lets you down at the minute. Once you sort that you'll be a very good winger. Iv hardly slagged you off??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddie Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I agree at times, but we wouldnt be playing this standard if every delivery was pinpoint now would we. Why not tell me to my face rather than trying to stir it on a forum, very mature. 1 game doesn't make an individual so the fact your trying to slate me on the evidence of 1 game suggest you haven't been to the rest of them, else you wouldn't of come to this conclusion because stats don't lie. Enough said your boring me now. I think I'll go up the park and practice my crossing for you. #helmet Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePragmatist Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Richard I seem to have hit a nerve . Its only my opinion and to be honest I think if you were to take it on board without taking it personally you have all the other attributes to be a top top player. By your reply on here I can now see that your just another good young player that cant take constructive criticism or be told anything. Shame really. O and Richard I know stats dont lie but they also tend to be a little more accurate then "6 or 7 assists". #Fibber Enjoy your evening up the park. I look forward to seeing an improvment friday!! Up The Ashes.... :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddie Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I can take criticism off people/players/mangers that have the balls to put a name and face to their comments which you still haven't done, so to be honest it means nothing. Hit a nerve.... No. Just bored of people bashing players on here hiding behind names when they haven't a clue on what they're talking about. As for the stats, that was a rough guess as I didn't want to shame your post anymore so than you have yourself !. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastyman Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I just wonder where "ThePragmatist" has suddenly appeared from! As Maddie has already stated, if he was "more talented", he might well being playing for Arsenal, Man city or Liverpool. But he is graced with talents that allow him to play at local level and is, I guess happy to play for "the ashes". Personally, I thought "the ashes" had a great game last night and thoroughly deserved the 3 points. This despite the "agricultural" efforts of certain Elburton players, who know who there are. I hope to be at the Bodmin Town v Saltash United game on Friday, so would love to chat over the finer elements of the game with "ThePragmatis". Thats if he/she wants to reveal their identity. But I very much doubt it. But we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
