TRon Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I wonder how Ashley has become so rich, while tolerating continued gross incompetence in his businesses. I think he takes Sports Direct far more seriously as a business. Newcastle is more of an advertising tool which he'd rather leave to other people to run. Football's not like other businesses though, you do need to involve competent people who understand the game, not accountants or casino managers.

nufcjb Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Had a horrific idea. McClaren begs to stay so he can try save us and salvage his reputation. Failing to do so, Ashley can sack him without any compensation to be paid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 The only glimmer of hope is that in the past they've been quick to put out statements. We could easily be saying nothing while looking for a replacement, no other reason would make sense. My guess is he'll only stay if they can't bring in who they want. Tend to agree with this. They've been very quick (to the point of aggressive) to deny any rumours of discontent previously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 From the BBC: 'Steve McClaren has spent £85m at Newcastle so far with a win rate of 21% - narrowly better than short-term bosses John Carver and Joe Kinnear.' EDIT: Steve Kean had a 22% win percentage at Blackburn. He hasn't really though, has he? Gini, Mitro, Mbemba etc were all clearly lined up for whoever they appointed. I'd say Townsend and Shelvey were his signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football's not like other businesses though, you do need to involve competent people who understand the game, not accountants or casino managers. His advertising exposure in the Championship will be restricted - this is why I think he'll act. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Keith Downie outside SJP. No sign of Schteve yet. Could be wrong here but I bet they have two ways in the sneaky f***ers Underground escape tunnel? They can just drive directly into the ground so will not necessarily be seen. However, chances are a board meeting will be held away from SJP if Ashley is attending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 They are all shitting themselves hoping Ashley has the answer. Paralysed by fear. 3 has-beens or never-were's who would be nowhere near any other PL club. They'll be thinking of their own wage packet rather than anything positive about the club.

Deuce Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Luke Edwards @LukeEdwardsTele 3m3 minutes ago I don't want to spread panic but I've been told this morning that someone in a key position at SJP doesn't want to sack Steve McClaren #nufc I wonder who the could be... Steve McClaren? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say Townsend and Shelvey were his signings. Well no, but it is money that has been spent on the squad during his tenure. Of all the things to aim at him, transfer spend is probably a bit unfair given he asked for a commanding CH and a forward and got neither. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 It's crazy how we sacked Hughton so quickly and for nothing but have let Pardew and McClaren get away with such sustained inept performances. That was probably very little to do with football though. They wanted a yes man who wouldn't resist selling our best players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
