I don't think that's that bad tbh. They didn't praise Ashley either really, they said that our way of buying good players that the very top teams aren't looking at is a good idea, which it is. I despise Ashley, but I don't mind that method at all, it's the selling them at profit, the refusal to deviate from that method, the penny pinching when we need to strengthen, and the fact that we have the worst manager in this league and probably the one below managing them that I have a problem with. All of that before the other stuff you can get onto about him. But buying good players is a still a good idea, basically and I think for the most part we do that quite often.

I always hated Venables when he was a manager. Thought he was massively over-rated. Sure, won something with Barca but doesn't everyone and got England to the Euro semi finals but so did almost every manager of a home nation before him, yet the press fell over themselves for him like a bunch of fawning sycophants.

 

However 10 years down the line and he looks like the next messiah next to our current shitstain. My, how times have changed and expectations have lowered. :(

Given a direct choice between the 2 of them I'd pick Venables atm. I don't rate him any more, I don't think he's particularly good but he's better than Pardew. Pardew is fucking done here, these are the death throes before he's given the bullet, he's not turning this around in any way, shape or form.

 

Venable's biggest attribute will be the fact he's NOT Pardew. This in itself will lift the players a bit and get a few wins which would otherwise have been guaranteed losses under Wanksplat.
