Maybe it's me but I just don't get this Mariano thing.
He's a decent enough player in a position where the club is fairly strong. He may or may not get on with Agar. However he's not good enough in the opinion of most fans to get to call the shots - he is no Gaz Ellis or Danny Kirmond.
This issue all seems to have been whipped up by his own personal stalker one here and is a mountain made from a teeny weeny mole hill for me.
I will put it this way - Frankie starts the season fairly poorly IMO - gets shipped out to Fev - comes back a better player in time to make his mark on the play offs and put himself in the shop window. At any other club that would be considered great work by Agar. But alas not at Wakey where we the fans remain negative and defeatist and convinced they are being sold short by the Board and the Manager and that all other clubs and coaches know better. This despite finishing top 8 last year and being in a similar position this.
Rejoice Trinity fans for christ sake - for those who can recall the clubs and the way it was pre 2004 you will know the clubs current state both on and off the pitch is pretty good. Two 40+ wins and a gate of 8000 for London, come on folks!!
If we are not at least heading in the right direction in these incredibly difficult times and thus should be happyish then why bother carrying on - I know it's not all perfect but then life rarely is.
Go Frankie, show us just how good you can be is what I say but then I say that to all the players.

Get out of the way you shouldn't be in here I'd assume.
I'm not claiming to know what Agar says to Frankie or vice versa. In fact I'd go further, nobody on this forum knows what's said and if they reckon they do they are deluding themselves.
The old regime was an open book and leaked info like a Cabinet office. The new regime seems as tight as a drum with none of the main people seemingly willing to gossip. Nobody I know who had the info does so anymore, they make educated guesses with what scraps they get.
Is it the right way to run a club, yes IMO.

I hope we keep him - has loads more potential than trout, molloy and yes even the sainted annikin'"
I know he's your buddy but that is so wrong, what exactly has he got right. The pack of midgets, Hickey will be the best prop ever, Sykes is gash or the classic Washbrook cost us the Leeds game or best of all Kirmond the Hudds reject who isn't fit to wear the shirt. There are more if I could be bothered.

Does he, what exactly has he got right in this case and also according to him 90% of what he says is correct, come on who says stuff like that.
He doesn't have a clue what he's said to Tuscon, which is apparently no matter how he plays he's guaranteed a staring place next year, silly thing to say at this point, wouldn't you think.
As I remember it last season when NGBC was whinging about Mariano not playing, he kept getting told and shown articles where it proved he was injured for a fair bit of the start of last season, then played 15 games.
Just my opinion.

| For me the Frankie issue is just consistency both during the game and from game to game.
I like him, I just want more.
If he can play well against Hull I'd say he has proved his point and should keep his place.

You filthy minded deviant; I'm referring to his physical stature, which in NGB4C's world, is king.
Or, as a posh newbie who I took to his first game yesterday said when confronted by Frankie, "Gosh, he really is a massive chap!"

Just because Al is of a similar view to you on this issue it's quite embarrassing for all concerned that you try to justify your nonsense off the back of every statement he makes on this subject. If you believe in what you say then fine, have the courage to go with it on your own.'"
I see you are still miffed cos i knocked you back get over it i don't do cheap and tacky

| Vastman said Molloy would make it cos he ran down the touchline and touched his toes. My list this year.
Washbrook offers nothing in attack - correct
Mariano should be a first team regular - in the team -team doing well correct
Lee Smith should be kicking to touch penaltys - Making miles more yards than Sykes Agar realised 10week after me.
Lynne/Molloy - useless we established that.
We need a interchange hooker with Aiton - Wildie playing better shape to team.
Sykes doesn't make a creative kick in attack - yet to see it.
Correct !!!!

Eh? no you didn't NGBC said 'hard been correct 90% of the time'.
So that's all you've got is to pick me up on my spelling of a player and not answer the points raised, how cute.
You'll ignore what as?
Not sure what point you're trying to make with this, just because I picked NGBC up on something that he said which wasHe wasn't a yes man he had personality something MR A cannot like. Hes basically said to Tuson if hes upto it no matter what he will be starting in the 2nd row wk in wk out next year'"
and I'm not allowed to give my opinion on that, without you trying to come to his defense.
