WINSFORD UNITED

From what i have seen we are probably 3 or 4 players short. BUT, name me 1 team in eurpean football that wouldn’t consider themselves a few players short of where they want to be.

It’s not even August yet. Some of our better players arrived once the last season had started (Stott, McGuire, Titch).

I don’t see too much wrong at the moment (well, nothing 2 or 3 quality players wouldnt fix anyway!!).

CJ, i know you aren’t trying to be negative (we have these same conversations every home game!), but unfortunately sometimes the written word is taken more literally than intended.

We all want the best for Witton, and that is why we worry.

Pritch has more than earned his shot at this, so let’s offer him the support that he deserves. He will need vocal support from the terraces, financial support where possible, and from time to time i’m sure he will need a little reassurance that we feel he is doing us all proud.

He wont get it right immediately, but we know that any player not pulling his weight wont be here for very long. We are going to have players here to want to wear the shirt rather than being here for the cash - i have heard people begging for that time and time again on here. So let’s support them.

If you want top-quality, then you have to pay for it. If you want players that aren’t just here for the money, then you have to accept that they wont always be world beaters. Not every player is a Brian Pritchard (which is handy, because every team needs pace!!).

Personally i cant wait to see how we do this year.

It seems to me that the team is now where it should have been this time last year. A side of young, relatively local players who could have “learnt their trade” over the season in readyness for this new season In my opinion we have missed the boat by a year. Is there anyone to blame. Too b****y right there is. Thankfully he’s no longer with us!!!
