On-field ill-discipline, long win-less runs in the league and bullsh!t quotes in the Advertiser have all been characteristics of Johnson Hippolyte's tenure at York Road.
An obvious example of the latter this week when, on consecutive days, the following articles appeared:
"I've got some boys here that I love but we have to get the budget back down to where it should be"
"We just can't compete financially so we have to try and see what we've already got"
"So we look in the reserves and in the youth team. We have to try and unearth another gem"
'Maidenhead United FC have resigned striker Richard Pacquette'
"He had most of pre-season with us but we didn't have the money to sign him"
"He had most of pre-season with us but we didn't have the money to sign him"
*wry smile*
Shortly after the Cup draw with Aldershot at York Road, the Chairman was quoted in the Advertiser as saying that the cash windfall might be spent on ground repairs or 'one or two other things'.
Seasoned Maidenhead fans - even those with below-average IQs - knew exactly what this meant.
As the song goes ...
Anyway, some selected comments from the 'Richard Pacquette leaves' thread on the HAYU forum:
'Released by the club today'
'I think this is the best for both parties'
'He must have been one the most expensive players we had in our squad. Perhaps this gives us some flexibility to attract some quality players'
'However [sic] are we going to cope'
