Can we get his fucking middle name back in the thread title and have a standing rule that he's not to be referred to as anything other Alan fucking Pardew in thread names?
He doesn't seem to grasp some of the fundamental differences between the sports business and other types of businesses. Like the fact that you can't just fuck supporters in the ass all the time.
It's almost unimaginable that I was so optimistic when Ashley bought the club just a few years ago. Good God, how that feeling has proved to be unwarranted over and over and over again.
I am constantly amazed that people that operate like this are able to amass such great quantities of money. Ashley just seems so separated from reality to me. I can't help but imagining him as a Howard Hughes type character.
