Ricketts

Preston want Ricketts for season

 

[Beefy]

If he's lost weight then why wouldn't they want him? He showed in the two appearences here that he's still got the ability.

That was not the only problem, his attitude was a major factor also

 

[Beefy]

Surely that was his attitude towards losing the weight. Unless you know some juicy gossip that I don't.

Lets face it, going from England International to being booted out of Southend United by the age of 27(?) would have been quite a shock. Maybe its given him the boot up the arse that he clearly needs.

 

[C'mon you Blues]

maybe he's seen the light. Pity he didn't see it sooner. If he's fit and motivated he could be a very good acquisition.

What a shame, he could of done so very well for us.

Gets me annoyed

He's different gear to the some of the wasters on our books. If he played 4 games then it would produce more than Harrold and Paynter together. Admit it, Tilson has cocked up in more ways than one this year!

If he's lost 2 stone then that just truly proves what a fat waster he was when he was here.

What an absolute waste of money.

Clearly not everything he has tried has come off, so I suppose by your definition, he has cocked up.

Why are you so keen to be proved right on this?

 

[MC BLUES]

A real shame about Ricketts.

The guy had so much ability and class, what a pity he just couldn't knuckle down, lose the large, and train properly!

A big disappointment for us.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Who's to say he won't do the same to Preston? The guy is a f**king waster and Preston are crazy to take a chance on him.

 

[C'mon you Blues]

why oh why Wiggy do you turn a good debate abourt an ex player into a slagging of Tilly. Pathetic.

Of course he has, but if you don't **** things up from time to time you don't do anything.

Nothing wrong with trying something, and if it doesn't work, learn from it and move on.

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

I just feel this could come back & bite us at some point!
Bet we go on a good run until Easter when Ricketts scores a hat-trick against us & we fail to get another point for rest of the season.....:(

C'mon You Blues said it perfectly; 'Ex-Player' so 'Ex-Shrimpers' forum it is.
