Dave Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Just a little experiment, considering we're on the verge of relegation. Any mention of the old board and/or comparisons between the two sees this thread fucked off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I'm just wondering if there's anyone who still supports him. Personally I can't see how anyone can, but apparently there are some. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Howay then five people, speak up. I support the hope he represents in rectifying his mistakes and allowing Shearer (or in the event he wants no part of it next season, someone competent) to build this club up again and move us forward. The low ebb we're facing has always been coming after the relative success of the past 15 years. Time to rise up again. Hopefully quietly but confidently, starting next season. Oh, and let me make it clear that should Shearer not stay on beyond this season, and KINNEAR returns full-time, for me Ashley would deserve no more chances and must go.

Guest Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I've voted "No", but by sacking Wise, the club doctor, seemingly giving Shearer free reign of the footballing side of things, there's still a glimmer that things could change in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 NO Sooner he fucks off the better, even if we do stay up we are just going to get more of the same next season.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Not me. When I read that guardian article and just being reminded of him employing the manager of the casino he frequented, then employing first Jimenez and then Wise on Jimenez's recommendation - I just felt fucking angry that he didnt give the proper thought into getting the best people possible. Reading that, it seems so obvious that we now find ourselves in the position we are. For that I cant support him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, I agree with that. I just dont get the impression that he sits at home or in his office, thinking things through and about what is next in his steps to develop NUFC. The Shearer appointment smacks of the way it will always be with him - desperate decisions at the last minute because his hand has been forced.

Guest Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 There's no doubt he gambled and f*cked up big-time with the January transfers, but if he wasn't bothered about trying to keep us up, he could have quite easily just sat back and let Wise, Kinnear, Hughton, Calderwood, etc. get on with it. I think he's reacted too late, but I'm sure letting Wise go, and bringing in Shearer & Dowie isn't cheap, so maybe he has finally woken up...even if he has been hitting the snooze button too often the past 18 months before that.

Aye, he's pretty much admitted in the past that's how he works; on the spur of the moment. It's just a glimmer though, all we have to cling to right now I guess.

Shak Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 No. I can still be won over by him, of course. If we somehow escape this mess we're in and then he gets his act together in the summer and starts running us in a competent fashion, then I'll support him again. Not that he will mind you, the man's clueless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have much more time for him had he said from the start that the finances were fucked and we weren't going to be spending much until they were sorted out. Instead you have numpties like Llambias STILL coming out with shit about us challenging for everything when we're knee-deep in a relegation battle.

Skirge Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 He knew KK being brought in would increase revenue and he knew it would be the same way if he got Shearer in. The way KK was treat mad eit obviouse the man if an idiot who looks to make a quick buck, he has no long term plans. The furthest he is looking ahead is to selling as many players as he can once we go down then selling the club and moving on leaving us in shit state. He will also be looking at the option of what he does if we stay up, no way will Al stay to be given no dosh and to see his top players sold. We stay up I reckn JK will be back in no time and we will carry on signing Nolan types while we sell players like Oba,Beye,Jonas,Bassong anyone he can get a decent price for will be sold.
