jdckelly Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 He must be pissed off with the thought of losing Premier League exposure and the wad of TV cash. the tv cash sure but we were on tv shit loads in the championship so maybe not such a drop in exposure at least in the uk market.

Darth Crooks Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Really don't fully understand why he's here. If it's just for the advertising it still doesn't make sense. He turns up regularly. Just don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I know, it's genuinely mad. Especially since it would cost him a relatively small amount to employ a chairman and manager and make us quite successful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Really don't fully understand why he's here. If it's just for the advertising it still doesn't make sense. He turns up regularly. Just don't get it. This has been the thing that gets me too. He turns up to watch matches including some obscure away games........we're absolute dog shit. As Ian says below for a fraction of what comes in, we could be entertaining, crowd would be relatively happy and he'd still make buckets of cash, you could argue more than he makes now. And yet we stagger from one disaster to the next as if he's getting some kind of perverse pleasure out of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Does he not just see it as networking, keeping his finger on his business and doing his job rather than watching the match for entertainment? Like I'm sure he goes to business functions, visits SD stores and the like that he considers business, not pleasure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest antz1uk Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Did no-one notice on that Dispatches programme where they showed you a clip of the promotional video for staff training, how many ex-sports personalities were on it. no wonder no-one comes out and slates him. Darren Gough (Albeit a complete dick on radio now) was on there, plus a lot of others Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'm just thinking, I wonder if relegation is what Ashley really wants ? It would give him the perfect excuse to sell Sissoko, Krul, Cisse ect, he could slash the wage bill by half overnight, last time we went down he apparently had to put £30 million into to the club to keep it going, we now have £38 million sitting in the bank so he wont need to invest anything. With all the highly paid players gone he can build his team around captain Coldback and build a squad cheaply to take us back up into the premier league ready for him to sell in 2016 which was the plan anyway. I'm sure his creative accountants could lose millions with the added cost of relegation that could be funnelled to MASH directly just before said sale. Just a thought.

Bet the rest are gutted when he turns up though, can't imagine any of them having the backbone to ask if there's any chance he'll share it with them.
