Pilko Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 What was wrong with Kinnear golf? He kept "hanging his hat" on the flag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfmag Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 To be fair, I wouldn't want to sit next to Doug Ellis either Well he was an incredible old codger and would have spoken non-stop through lunch whether I'd been there or not, but you couldn't help but like him. Funnily enough, his Chief Exec who was on the other side of him, he fired the week after I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an endearing quality to go around calling everyone a cunt constantly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I bet Kinnear had the chance to sign some good technical players in the January window but convinced Mike that we needed crafters like Nolan and Taylor. Well, after having watched Xavi and Iniesta orchestrate the barca midfield tonight it's clear that Kinnear saw an English equivalent in the wily Nolan...

quayside Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I bumped into someone at a golf tournament today who was right at the heart of our club until six games (that's the clue) into this season. No names as he has previously given me a lot of accurate info and is a much nicer bloke that his reputaion might suggest. Stuff he told me tonight: - Prior to the Keegan's appointment, Harry Rednapp had actually signed a written Heads of Terms (initial contract) on a four-year deal. - Prior to Kinner's appointment, Venables had agreed to come but big Mike would only give him a contract for FOUR weeks. - Appointing Kinnear was a disaster. - Freddie S was indeed in toon yesterday as part of the interested consortium. - Big Mike doesn't want to bankroll the club next season. Post Redknapp there was some coughing and spluttering by Mort that Arry hadn't actually been offered the job but it seemed pretty f*cking obvious that he had. I'm just curious where the appointment of Wise came from. Redknapp wouldn't have had any of that surely, so was Wise just brought in to handcuff Keegan in the transfer market because they didn't trust his judgement? Also how would a cheque book manager like Redknapp have handled a net spend of next to nothing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe - but you would think they had sorted all that stuff out before they went as far as signing any sort of Heads of Agreement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the chance to sign Donadel and looked at numerous DVD's but it was decided against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Although I will give you the benefit of the doubt about events prior to this season that you mention. You even admitted that the person was no longer a part of the club anymore, so I'll take everything else with a pinch of salt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
