James Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 To be fair some people tried to warn us about Ashley and we didn’t heed it. I’m not going to make that same mistake again Yep. Though I reckon if true, you will see the shift a lot of people want. iirc, on here anyway, the ashley warnings were based on absolutely nothing because he was an an unknown hermit before taking us over...there was barely even a picture of him Pretty much the first page Toontastic says he is known by his business associates as being a nasty piece of work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Besides his company's website using flash, why is he generally considered a joke? only worth £18bn the daft cunt There's no way he's worth that much. I could be wrong but are you not mixing him up with Sheikh Khalifa? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 It's just mind blowing this. It seemed too good to be true and it being The Sun. Yet its so detailed a story, way too brazen to be a lie, and everyone else is running with it. Maybe this is the end of the dark times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have big reservations about the ethics of it all but at least it wouldn’t be a grinning oaf deliberately holding us back. For now cautious optimism/curiosity.

Darth Crooks Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I don’t even want crazy spending like Oil FC. I just want reasonable investment and allowing Rafa to do what he sees fit. Is that too much to ask? No Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 What would our position be if these were, for instance, really pally with Mourinho and one of the conditions was that we didn’t renew Rafa’s contract so that they could bring their own guy in?

Sima Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Why do it to yourselves, man? As regular as clockwork this bullshit. It’s amplified because we have our manager’s contract expiring as well as the standard transfer window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the problem. A reasonable investment company would never buy a overpriced club. That means our only shot is crazy spending ppl. But I agree with you..
