Guest Ian56 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 If true this will be a total humiliation for Ashley and his business plan for Newcastle United. It would also put him at a disadvantage in any dealing with Keegan. Number one rule in life: don't embarass your boss in public even if he has acted like a fool. The only outcome I can see if this happens is that Ashley is definitely intending to up sticks and sell and he's wiping the slate clean. I'm happy and suspicious in equal measure. Wouldn't trust Sky as far as I can throw them though.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE5 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 This is going to end in tears. club never surprises you does it mate ? Not holding my breath, but if Ashley backs down and this isn't to discuss compo etc, he comes back, Wise is sacked and KK runs the team and Ashley backs him, he'll have my respect and I would take my hat off to him. Obviously never going to happen then. aye, I'm safe enough because I don't wear a hat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't trust Sky as far as I can throw them though.... Why would it be a humilation for Ashley? Keegan walked out, remember? That is the only fact that we know for certain. For all we know, Ashley (by proxy, as he was not about if I remember correctly) could have bent over backwards to keep Keegan at the club, but to no avail. Personally, I think that *if* Ashley has invited Keegan to return, it shows just how strong his character is. He obviously could not care less what the press or anyone else thinks of him and for that along I doff my cap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stozo Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 So where does this leave tomorow's protest. I assume all the morning papers will run with this so it'll be interesting to see how many people turn up now. Think there will just be a sense of confusion.

Mick Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 If Ambani does want it and those comments from him earlier were true then it makes sense for Ashley to sort it all out, even if he doesn't sell then the club really need to put the past week behind them and make sure everyone is pulling in the same direction, that includes the fans too. The fans were pulling together before this shit kicked off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 It was always going to take Ashley meeting KK face-to-face. Lambrini sending him a letter was never going to work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Seriously though, this can only be about settling out of court. job for solicitors that one surely ? Maybe, but KK is a passionate man who says what he means there and then. I imagine Ashley has walked in (above his team's heads) and pleaded with him to keep it out of the courts for the good of the club. This can surely be the only conclusion. Perhaps Baggio's theory is correct though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davy_fulla Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 What would be the official line though if he did get reinstated? Statements have been made by both parties basically slagging each other off. Just wondering how they can possibly dress things up now that certain things have been said.
