Seems that Macclesfield were not very impressed with our pitch!

Sour grapes indeed.

The Silkmen played more like milkmen. Our pitch is far from being one of the worst in the league, and even if it were the best I can't see how they would have outplayed us on the deck. They're obviously a half decent side to be where they are in the league but they showed none of that quality on Saturday, while we were excellent without creating that many clear cut opportunities.

I havent listened to it yet, but I can guess what will be said.

What makes Jamie a better manager than most is when we don't play well, or deserve nothing from a game, he will say so. He'll say we weren't good enough. Other managers seem to make endless excuses about pitches, referees, etc etc that in the long-run serves no purpose. Most fans, chairman, and the like, don't want to hear excuses.

Top class bad loser and a poor poor coach if that's the best he can come up with.

Now listened to it and feel infinitely less intelligent as a result. Complete amd utter ****. If I were a Macclesfield fan, player or owner and heard that I'd be looking for a new manager with a brain, eyes that work, and a positive attitude.

The sign of a good team is playing on what is presented to them....they have illusions that they were going to make the play offs...and 'little Welling' did it again........Long may that continue

What a plank!! There is nothing wrong with our pitch its better than many in this league. His team spent the first half kicking the ball out of the stadium and off the pitch and didn't exactly trouble us much. So what if one of their players cracked a rib, we have had to change our goalkeeper and 3 out of back four are all new players. Macclesfield are not a big club, they are skint and do not deserve to be in the play offs.
A sore loser who should resign after these comments for making such ridiculous statements about how you can't play Football on Welling's pitch.
Alfreton had to play us in a severe storm but I didn't hear them complaining, they got on with the job and had obviously watched Welling and stuck to a game plan.
Fed up with all these losers who never admit they were beaten by a better side filled with players with more desire, team spirit and with a better Manager and coaching stuff.

" We were caught out because we are a league club that should be in league 2 or maybe even league 1 and we shouldn't have to come down to little grounds like Welling. If we do they should realise that we are a vastly superior club full of players who are far better than anyone at Welling and they should do the decent thing and roll over. The game had 0-0 written all over it because of Welling's unfair work rate, that was an insult to our team who were trying to pass them off the pitch, playing total football. They only scored because they had nearly 4 times as many shots as we did and insisted on trying to put the ball in the net thing at the end of the pitch rather than just admiring us pass the ball sublimely around the middle of the park, and occasionally into the sports club next door."

Another deluded manager, I hope the board consider his comments, having presumably watched the match and maybe decide that they would be better with a manager with a rather firmer grasp of reality.

My boss came for his first ever trip to Welling and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the football (I don't believe he was referring to Macclesfield either).

No! Having told my boss that I'm very careful about what I put on social media and the forum I think I'll leave it at that.

Quite the most embarrassing oppo gaffer interview I've ever heard at PVR. He got sent to the stands during the match and should have stayed there after that interview.

First of all, I wasn't there, however...

Given John Askey was a member of their team when we played them in the nineties, he knew what to expect if he hadn't done his scouting. A sh*t pitch and a non-league stadium, so no excuse for being unprepared. You lost, you were not good enough to come up with the correct plan. Suggest you scout next time.

If he had done his scouting he would have seen PVR is not a bowling green but it is not in the bottom ten pitches in this league either. Still didn't come up with a plan to win. Could not possibly admit they were beaten by a side that can play and play well in their own stadium, be it long ball or passing, and we can do both which doesn't make us talentless.

Question Mr Askey. Had you have got through to round 4 of the FA Cup and drawn Arsenal at home would you have spent the preceding two weeks making sure your pitch was a bowling green so you could have a passing competition? Suspect not?

If you think you are a bigger club because you have done 15 years or so in the League, I am sure that you will be deferring to the size and history of Workington next time you play them. (26 years in the League) I can guess the answer to that one too!

Stop moaning, pay your players what you can actually afford and understand the size of club that you actually are!

Great post Stafford.

John Askey would appear to be a clown of the highest order! His team were well beaten.

Someone being a league club for 15 years is of no relevance. They aren't now. They were relegated for a reason. If they are so much bigger and better than Welling why were they beaten by us, and sit below us in the league.

By the same argument Portsmouth are still a Premier League club in his eyes, and I suppose Yeovil and Doncaster remain non-league clubs.
