ben-nufc Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Ashley's played this window brilliantly from his perspective. Every day that goes by without a signing or even a back room staff, expectations are lowered to the point where signing anyone will be seen as a relief and something to be grateful for. Guess who wins again... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess who wins again... He can't keep getting away with it. Media and public are wiser than ever now, he is under scrutiny to live up to his interview. He has time on his side, but if we are still like this in August there will be noise everywhere on it. You can't lie that directly about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danh1 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 The joke is on those that said "ah he has came out and spoke to the fans, he is telling the truth." Bunch of fucking mongs, getting exactly what they deserve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Amazing how 54% were that gullible! I know mate, not surprising though sadly. An average signing would probably paper over the cracks for some. These people are a complete joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Ashley's played this window brilliantly from his perspective. Every day that goes by without a signing or even a back room staff, expectations are lowered to the point where signing anyone will be seen as a relief and something to be grateful for. Guess who wins again... The trouble though is that he can no longer get away with that. Every other team is improving their squad whilst we need to do more than any other team seeing as we were the worst team (along with QPR) by miles last year. Just getting anyone will not improve us - we need to get better than we have if they want to improve especially if the target is top 8-10. It sounds as if they are looking for bargains as usual but that is not buying what we actually need. Far better to get one quality player for £15m than a couple of average ones for £5m each. All that is doing is adding bodies to the squad rather than improving it and we have plenty of average players already. When you look at the players Stoke, Swansea, Southampton and West Ham are going for, how can we be searching the bargain basements of Europe again especially with all the TV cash? They may not get all the players they are trying for but at least they are showing ambition and their bids are being accepted even if the players choose not to make the move (whereas our bids are usually dismissed by the selling clubs as derisory). How many times can they keep admitting to making mistakes and then saying they have learnt their lesson only to do exactly the same thing the next year.

How many times can they keep admitting to making mistakes and then saying they have learnt their lesson only to do exactly the same thing the next year. We'll probably sign a few no marks and gambles and be told to be grateful and that we were wrong by the #wait brigade. Whether that is good enough (it's not!) is fairly immaterial as it'll be spun and dressed positively as some kind of sound investment when in reality it's more of what's gone before. The real test will arrive when the matches start coming, and we're knocked out of the cup by Wolves or somebody. But again, because we cant perform any worse in the league than we did for the second half of last season a few positive results will be spun as steps in the right direction, despite the lack of forward planning or genuine ambition.

Heake Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Lets not forget the first seven games. If, & its a big if just now, we don't invest & improve the squad (ie purples) enough to provide a marked improvement on the quality of football / results we`ll be bottom by mid September. McLaren will be under massive pressure, the support will be kicking off like fuck & the press will be salivating. At least it'll be interesting Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JS Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 He's broke even on transfers now. True in itself I suppose, but a microanalysis of his actions doesn't paint the proper picture. How does his net spend on transfers look as an overlay to company profit over the same duration? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
