Dave Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The Gazette seem to have been pretty well sourced throughout this bonus situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I thought Ashley wasn't involved in the day-to-day? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Putting aside his ability, which is not as bad as sometimes made out IMO, it's a pleasure to have someone with such good character representing the club as captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1964 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Might have been covered somewhere else, can't be arsed to look but listening to that dullard Redknapp trying to pronounce his name at the weekend is a sad reflection on sports broadcasting. Laskels, laskellez errrr...... 22 players names to learn each week you cretin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elma Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Ritchie already celebrating? Good spot. On a related note, anyone see Clark prematurely celebrating Joselu's header in the first half? He was convinced it was in. Can laugh about it now we've got the three points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Sums it up that Ashley only wanted to give a bonus for 17th with no incentive to try any harder than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The hell is he negotiating the bonus for his squad for? such a weird fucking club that the captain has to do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 He'll be sold by this time next year. Ashley doesn't like people with character or who challenge him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shush Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The hell is he negotiating the bonus for his squad for? such a weird fucking club that the captain has to do this. I had same reaction. I mean it's great it's been resolved, but only at ours would this bizarre thing happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Ball watches, goal line clearance, scores the winner, negotiates the bonus. What a fucking week for our captain...really liking his all-action week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peder75 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The hell is he negotiating the bonus for his squad for? such a weird f***ing club that the captain has to do this. That's quite usual in a lot of countries and sports around Europe. When it comes to player bonuses and player related stuff it is usually done by a player council (2-3 players) that represent the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'd think the players would want a say on bonuses like. Otherwise why would there be a disussion about it at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The point I'm making is the press are saying he and Ashley hashed it out between themselves. Not like Lascelles told Charnely who then phoned Mike, and got it approved Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Sums it up that Ashley only wanted to give a bonus for 17th with no incentive to try any harder than that. £1m more to share between the players for each position starting above 17th in the report I read. I.e 16th £1m, 15th £2m, etc. On top of the £4m for 17th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e 16th £1m, 15th £2m, etc. On top of the £4m for 17th. I read that as well but didn't seem to make any fucking sense at all. Last season prize money was £1.9m per place so Ashley has agreed to give up just over 50% of each to the players? Highly doubt that myself and if it's true he's an arsehole.

Guest Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I suppose though if 17th is the limit of Ashley's ambition, an extra £900k per position for him is a bonus in itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
