Disco Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Didn't listen but seemed much ado about nothing really. Hopefully he'll learn from these mistakes although as he is was brought in partly for his experience he shouldn't be making them in the first place like a rookie manager would.

Dave Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 "In terms of the transfers, when I came in here, I said: 'Look, you've obviously got a scouting system here, but the rubber stamp has to come from me.' "If you're going to mould a team, then you have to have that assurance, and they gave me that assurance." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

9 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Is it just me that picks up on him saying "I THINK" all the time rather than commiting to anything? i know its just him covering his back or whatever but it just gives me no confidence in anything he says. Overall he seems like a decent guy who talks a lot of sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpal78 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Understands frustration of what's gone on in the past - "If I was a fan, would I be jumping up and down about Mike Ashley? No I wouldn't be" He obviously hasn't been on here. What? That's the general running theme of this forum It's like the f***ing Mike Ashley fan club on here at times man.

OzzieMandias Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 It's only because Wullie, Colocho and the like define "fan" as anyone who doesn't include the words "fat cunt" in any and all mentions of Ashley and fails to whine and whinge the entire fucking time.

Aye, cos you never moaned about "Fat Fred". Talk about the pot and the kettle, Jesus. You never posted about anything else (apart from Stephen Spence of course) for a three year period. http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php?action=profile;u=1001;sa=showPosts;start=5730 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's one eyed to dislike a bloke who got us relegated, uses the club as a Job Centre for his gambling buddies and continues to sell off our best assets, then yes, I'm one eyed. Canny ridiculous to be accused of that given what he's done to the club, but then this is exactly what I mean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more getting at the negativity or cynicism when Ashley does actually get something right, be it through judgement or dumb luck. He's clearly a prat, but this doesn't mean everything he does is totally shit and to the detriment of the club. The above paragraph comes not from an Ashley fanboy, but from someone who is resigned to seeing him at the top of the club for the forseeable and who is trying to see the positives his ownership brings, however scant they may be.

Wullie Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I certainly think there's far far more support for him than there was for Shepherd for example, despite the latter having done far more for NUFC and having a will for us to be better, despite being dreadful at putting that into practice. There's a significant minority on here that don't mind the team being dire as long as Ashley's accountant is happy. I don't understand that and I never will.
