thomas Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Signing Rondon secures our Premiership statue under Rafa for at least the next 2 seasons and probably next under a new manager. Easiest decision Ashley has to make. I wonder what happens. should I turn in this winning powerball ticket or take the mystery box??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Jesus Christ we have a fantastic manager in the richest fucking league. Why is this hard. Ashley knows the price of everything but the value of nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I know its body language territory and everything but Rafa seemed in a bloody good mood in his presser. Hardly like a man who was expecting to up root. His "10 days" thing, seemed in relation to West Broms play offs with regards Rondon, rather than his own future.

jackyboy Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 MA does not see us as a football club but as a business who's sole purpose is to make money, not to please a load of supporters. He could stick in £80 mill get us up to 7th but what will be the return for his investment? The only place for the real big money is the Champions League and you can't buy your way into that unless you have a Man City type owner prepared to throw hundreds of millions at it just for fun. The only way we will enjoy seeing the real potential of the club being developed is with a new owner Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly like a man who was expecting to up root. As far as body language goes, I work on the basis of : Rafa angry - Ashley/Charnley have told him bad news directly. Rafa happy - Ashley/Charnley have lied to him to make him believe he might get something he wants. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't need to put in a goddamn penny, he can just let the club spend its own income. As he keeps promising to do. The reality is he regards all the clubs income as his income I guess, and legally I suppose it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 They really do miss the brief, Rafa has said it so often he wants a project he wants investment in the infrastructure of the club and Ashley just thinks he can fix it with a cash bung.
