I'd be amazed if Mike Ashley lets him retain his own indepedent website. Don't really see why he needs to either tbh.

 

Pretty sure he'll have specified it has to exist.

 

Maybe. Why bother though?

Good craic innit.

 

Well he's a renowned manager and football expert, why wouldn't he have a website? He has his own stuff to say that doesn't need to be through any particular club. Just because our last two managers didn't know what the internet was.

 

Genuine question, do other top managers have them? And, if so, do they still use them when they're employed by a club?

 

Of all of things with this club and THIS is the thing you have an issue with? Wow.

 

:lol: What are you talking about 'issue'?

 

I don't get it particularly. I'm hardly standing outside the stadium with a 'Rafa Out' banner.

 

Also find it weird that Ashleys regime has been notoriously jittery with regard to press and the messages coming out from the club being joined up, Mirror relationship etc, that they're seemingly so cool with this.

 

It was one of the first things that I thought would go if I'm honest. I think I said that at the time of his appointment too.

 

It doesn't really chime with the previous views.

 

I'm not that arsed what he does on his website frankly, just find it a bit peculiar.

 

It's obviously Rafa the Brand - what's so strange about that, Minhosa?

 

It's normal business in contemporary football world.

 

I'm not saying it isn't. What I was asking was whether most top managers have them and whether they tended to use them whilst employed at clubs?

 

It was a genuine question, it's not something I've ever paid any attention to.

 

I was also making the point that it's the only time during the Ashley reign that we've had messages coming out from two sources about the club as he's been notoriously nervy around PR and he's always had that reputation in business of being mistrusting of the media.

 

I think from a fans perspective, it's got to be a big positive overall as we're at least getting some noise from a respected member of the club.

 

It's not a criticism at all, it's just an observation that it's a marked change of approach in an area that's clearly close to Ashleys heart.

Why does it matter if some top managers have them or not?

 

The control of the PR probably stemmed from one of Ashley's many crap advisers.

Nothing that has happened since (and including for that matter) Rafa's appointment has been in tune.

 

As nervous as I am to draw the conclusion, it looks like Ashley has finally given up the control and abandoned his model/vision/whatever the fuck it was.

He did have that 'facts' meltdown, was it at Liverpool? Hopefully he's learned from that.

Yep. He allowed Ferguson to get inside his head and he snapped.

 

so much in common with KK  :smitten:
