Ronaldo Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 There's no way Moyes was going there without being assured he'd be able to bring in his own players at least some of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Makes you wonder if there is anything the football authorities (as toothless as they are) can do with regards to what Ashley is doing, because it's hardly 'sport' - it's not even entertainment, FFS.

midds Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Must admit he does seem a little isolated and vulnerable at the minute. He's lost Llambias, Kinnear and now Pardew over the last year or so and he could well become the sole focus of the fans' anger if things continue to go tits up on the park. Not suggesting he gives the first shit about the prospect of abuse from the stands but he's got no-one to hide behind now. He's on his own pretty much.

I can easily see Llambias coming back tbh, Ashley is losing control of Rangers at the moment by the look of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmymag Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 This could be a watershed moment for the club. Ashley has two choices, either appoint another puppet, Charver or another of his drinking buddies, and risk the wrath of the crowd turning on him and his regime. Or he could appoint a credible coach that we can all rally behind to take the club forward. As others have said, he's lost his "shield" and must be feeling as vulnerable as he ever has at the club.

loki679 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Let's face it the fans will never turn on him enough to achieve anything. Even if the fans turn on him en masse he can just stop going to games and basically ignore the club apart from banking a fuck off huge cheque each season.

beardsleymagic Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 The thing is though, the more people voice their opinions at the match, the more the press will pick up on it. It's once it gets in the media that it'll make him take notice. He'll not want the full media glare on him and his other businesses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to lack the impetus to organise it though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 See John Hall has been interviewed on 5live. Seemed to suggest it's not even worth bothering to compete against the sovereign states, and feels Ashley will struggle to get a coach in. Was barely awake so not sure why, or how accurate that is. Nowt up on their website yet. EDIT: Ah. No quotes, but the report say he said we can't compete in the league, and trying to get in a head coach wont work as the good managers want control.

Dokko Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Best thing you can do with Ashley is let him crack on until he decides to sell the club. He'll not want the club to leave the premiership, but we will go nowhere else in cups or euro qualification and no amount of protests or fan pressure will change that. Like said any publicity is good publicity, he's been surrounded in negativity since he's come here yet SD has doubled in size. We did that for him, without us he'd just be another retail brand struggling to make an impact on the high street. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
