Elliottman Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 “When he [Mike Ashley] did the interview before the West Ham game,” said McClaren. “When he came out with drive and determination and focus and talked about the objectives he wanted to achieve, he said it with such verve and vigour I think everybody was convinced, everybody was rejuvenated by that." That is disgusting. In context he was saying it was one of the things that convinced him the club were serious About pushing on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I couldn't disagree more. Chances are it's likely his last job in football, he'll be here for a long, long time to milk it for all it's worth unless he contrives to take us down/retires early. I think he'll walk if he gets the stick Pardew received. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Already licking Ashley's hoop in interviews I see. Where? The only real Pardism I detected from the Sky interview was "... at Derby, we was on course..." ... Oh God. “When he [Mike Ashley] did the interview before the West Ham game,” said McClaren. “When he came out with drive and determination and focus and talked about the objectives he wanted to achieve, he said it with such verve and vigour I think everybody was convinced, everybody was rejuvenated by that."

colinmk Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 This is Ashley's Shepherd and Big Sam moment. A realisation that things have to change, that the past cannot continue. But unlike with FS, Ashley has no ambition for NUFC outside of how he wants the club to operate. The clash of interests if you like will meet head on at some point and there is only ever going to be one winner. I will go on record here and now and state that McClaren will resign within the next 2 years. He has bought into this so-called new vision and new NUFC, as have lots of fans it sadly seems, but Ashley only cares about two things - SD and the huge revenues from TV that enables him to run NUFC without having to put his own money into things and the guaranteed huge exposure for SD through the millions watching. Talk of the top 8 and cups and punching above our weight financially are soundbites penned by Kieth Bishop and aimed at the sad sacks who want to believe in that, which by the way is deeply sad given finishing 5th under Sir Bobby was once regarded as not good enough. Support McClaren and this 'new' NUFC and all you are doing us deluding yourself further. Meet the new boss.... same as the old boss? I won't be fooled again! Never! Agree with most of that. Don't know much about the integrity or whatever you want to call it of McClaren, but you have to imagine if he has any then he will be off within two years. I couldn't disagree more. Chances are it's likely his last job in football, he'll be here for a long, long time to milk it for all it's worth unless he contrives to take us down/retires early. Fair enough, you will know a lot more about him than I do. Like I say though, if he is still here year after year and we are essentially carrying on like we have been(which we all know we will) then the guy's a fuckwit.

Guess who else you said this about Ian? Anyone who takes the job is instantly tainted by association, this is why the club can't go anywhere without a clean break.

To hate anyone who works for Ashley is a fair enough position. Run of the mill quotes have just never been something I've been that bothered about, especially not from a guy who's just started a new job. Wouldn't be at all surprised if you're right about the situation overall, I'm well past the optimistic stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Ian said, he's hardly going to get the job and go "yeah fuck Ashley, amirite? Fucking mug!" It's ridiculous to think otherwise. It's the most uninspiring choice after what seemed like a few more exciting options, but it's better than where we were at this time last year. We need to judge him on who he brings in and how he performs next season, not judge him on his first interview to the club newspaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
