JimmyRiddle Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Last night I actually agreed with them as it is unacceptable to not be paid and thought it would bring matters to a head. However, having thought some more, for the sake of 9 days and 2 meaningless matches is it really worth all this negativity when the only people really to suffer now, potentially are the fans, especially if points deductions etc roll into next year. And do we think it is the whole squad in unity or a few militants railroading the rest? And if such perosnailties exist where they been on the pitch all season? Why have these same players never stood up to PP over his shit tactics. I. E. Nolan telling Gartside Sammy Lee was out of his depth type action. Everything to do with the club at the moment feels contradictory, amongst other things!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody speaks out against Ken (and now Bassini). They get the stick for being shit footballers, a failed pub owner, a vegan bellend, painting the spare room etc. etc. No. They're not all cunts, certainly not to the level where it's the players getting the most shit. It couldn't be more obvious who the actual cunts are, the two clowns who have us heading to the wall. But crack on directing criticism at everyone else.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted April 27, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted April 27, 2019 Who are the "senior players" who have spoken on behalf of the rest? I assume Wheater will certainly be amongst them; a player who is at the twilight of his career. Is it fair that he speaks for a number of junior playing staff who may not wish to withdraw his labour? Maybe the should have played the younger players and got points docked for playing unregistered players. 2 points per player is still only 28 points (inc. subs.) and would only lose us a single position in the league. I'm sure the EFL would have preferred this as a solution than not fulfilling the fixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On fact I think my first post on this thread actually says KA is a cunt or similar So Tom do you agree with the strike action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Doesn't really matter but I wonder if we'll ever find out which players thought this was a cunt's trick because there will be some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted April 27, 2019 Moderators Share Posted April 27, 2019 Yes - we appear to be in some sort of limbo with the owner and potential owner fucking around and this may help force the situation towards some sort of conclusion No - it gives KA another excuse to deflect attention away from him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they are striking for themselves They've had "issues". Fuck off. Go and work in A&E on a Saturday night, dig holes in the road in the pissing rain, scrape a biker off the motorway when a driver hasn't seen him, be a peacekeeper in Yemen, etc, fucking etc I completely agree with the concept of "striking" when an employer is fucking over the workforce. It's exactly why the unions were born and rightly so But even a player earning a "lowly" £2K per week is probably earning more than the vast majority who are paying in week after week, month after month, year after year to watch the shit that they serve up and can't even have butter on their hotdogs, have their beer served cold, and even think about being entertained They can fuck right off. No sympathy whatsoever. They've pissed on their chips This is a very emotive issue, and it's perfectly understandable folk are annoyed with players- no argument from me there. My perspective is drawn from having worked in local government then going on my own. Firstly a number of individuals wanted to scive and earn; which pissed me off. Going on my own, and some want to have you do stuff and not pay for ages. It certainly changed my valuation of money. Not what it buys as that doesn't change but the moral importance of that agreement. During my CBT, some of this came out and I've had to change my approach, and I've fucked off the odd customer. Not being paid becomes a massive moral issue, irrespective of whether it's affordable. For me, apart from maybe the very top earners in football, the level of wage shouldn't come into it. I know these guys will get paid eventually, but there's an important principal at stake - it would be wrong if clubs started to delay wages as a matter of routine. I know they've been shit on the pitch, and at times their efforts have been questionable, but it wouldn't surprise me to find out later a lot more shit has been going on. Ultimately, they're only human. In a way, it's good that they've exhibited a togetherness - although I accept that a lot more of that would have been welcomed on the pitch. When it comes down to it; I just struggle to find any great animosity towards them, I think I know how I'd feel in their shoes. Maybe the season as a whole has taken its toll, as I'm finding the situation all a bit meh at the moment. I'll reserve my anger for Ken Anderson.

wakey Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Interesting aspect for me ... the players didn't decide to strike, they decided (on Wednesday) to threaten to strike. I think that's entirely reasonable in a situation where they haven't been paid and (allegedly) have had to put up with a mixture of broken promises, contradictory statements from the club, and periods of no explanation whatsoever. Threatening to strike in order to force someone to do what they've already promised to do when it's already gone past the date where they said they'd sort it (and the assumption is, given the promises made, that it's entirely within their means to sort it) is fair enough. I'm sure we'd all have done the same. The problem then is when it still isn't sorted what do you do? The threat hasn't worked, but you can't really back down. So the real question becomes whose fault is it if Bassini / Ken had two days' notice on this but still didn't sort it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tshape Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I've been up and down about this since last night in the pub. I thought they were all cunts last night. I changed my mind. This morning I went for a walk and rang my mate and said they were all cunts. Finished the walk and saw it differently. I'm out in Manchester at the moment and don't know how I feel about it anymore. The players are no better or worse off than they were on Wednesday morning though. That's a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your heads all over the place and you need to sort yourself out. For me it's pretty simple, the players are total cunts and i never want to see a single one of them near our club ever again.

Trouble is.... by not fulfilling our fixtures, it's opened us up to a whole new set of future sanctions from the EFL, ranging from points deductions ( if we survive ) to expulsion from the league. For what ?....the starving footballers were always going to get paid at some point, but most of the shithouses won't be here when we have to pay the price for their strike.
