Not much of a spectacle but I guess that’s not the point. Just hope with streaming they make a few quid for the charity. that's the most important thing.

Richie not there tonight looks like Paul Terry was in charge If that is true and Richie was not there, then sorry that's proper disrespectful. If true he has gone down in my estimations of him as a man.

He was watching bolton play in a friendly game scouting them for when we play them. whatever team they put out wouldn't matter one iota to what they will do when they play us. He could have sent Paul Terry, Steve Foster or an other, this was about a man who literally gave his life to this football club. If it wasn't for Justin I'm sure Richie wouldn't have bothered with us. peeed off now.

It’s the club as a whole and all employees when approached, that have consistently honoured Justin. The absence of the manager as an employee, working as an employee, under the circumstance of the opening match preparation should not be confused with RW perception by you as negative. I can recall at least two interviews since RW been at this club where he clearly acknowledged JE past achievement with respect. PT in this interview emphasis respectively Justin.

I'm torn on this.
The JE3 Cup has quickly diminished into just a friendly with a bunch on Spurs Kids. They never really took it seriously and never was going to.
For us I think possibly we may also need to leave the JE3 Cup behind. Or play some of Justin's other teams. Fisher, Gillingham, Northampton, Newport. Rotate it.

If it wasn't for Justin I'm sure Richie wouldn't have bothered with us. peeed off now. Will admit at first I’d not given this thought but on reflection I too struggle to understand what RW would have got from watching a friendly when typically every player and their dog gets a run out and systems change. I suppose he gets to look at different players and their strengths and weaknesses against decent opposition. Thought managers had access to endless video stuff. But we play 46 games a season and it’s rare he will get the chance to watch opposition 2 weeks before we play them, so we must (I assume) have a system in place that caters for looking at opposition that doesn’t (cannot) facilitate RW seeing them in person the whole season. Why is this any different? Having been away from his family I have to wonder if the game also doubles as an opportunity to see family and friends in the area. An added bonus. However it is a tad disrespectful in my opinion.

The presence of RW would not of added any additional respect to JE family.
But, others have posted so far on this appear to have different views.
I believe with JE who was a 100% football person and would have no issue with the presence or non presence of the manager.
I really think it’s not a dramatic issue and I am pleased the two clubs try there best to raise JE to all our thought's.

I always respect Thors postings and they are mostly a good read,but he does let his passion and humanity go slightly awry.

A situation that could be viewed very differently.
But given the reasons I expect him to miss other games as he scouts, Birmingham, Reading, Lincoln etc two weeks before we play them! But he won’t of course because managing league games is more important than the JE3 trophy which only exists, not for points but for respect and charity.
I remain of the opinion that it was as much an opportunity to visit friends and family as much as watching the game. The game a useful and convenient excuse.

Give it a rest mate the mantra about “ visit friends and family “ it’s becoming a real drag. I know you troll me which is your freedom - I ain’t playing ping pong but you are really are at times a real strange one. You talk about his absence but not knowing one rain drop of his life, but more intent to just focus on a hypothetical negative because that is one of YOUR characteristics. I think you are being more disrespectful to RW and JE saying crap like “ convenient excuse “.

Get a grip and calm down. I’m not trolling you, you are not that important to me.

When your view is not aligned with mine or another you create a different view to then appear to thrive on the negativity. You do exactly the same on the other board ( where I stopped posting a few years ago but read ). Yes, you thrive on your style of creating an image that you demonstrate some sort of dynamic intellect of a learned view - but in truth you just go to far and exceed into rudeness this time not aimed at be but actually to RW telling everyone where he has been and for what reason and in this case it’s absurd for you to even say why RW went to Manchester, suggesting the motive. It really displays your lack of basic thought logic and impertinent attitude- eg the audacity to tell me to “ calm down” - who the hell do you think you are to patronise me.

Though when it comes to rudeness you are up there. Ironic. But hey, I can live with it as you don’t matter to me. Give it a try, I really don’t pay particular attention to you despite what you think. 👍

There is no need to throw it out there at all. Its all a bit snide.
