gdm Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Once the penny drops and Ashley realises how much money he will lose with Bruce relegating us he will be gone. He already knows this, it's literally happened to him twice already. He just falsely believes that we'll somehow scrape 17th with a loan signing or two and that what we've seen so far is just bad luck rather than a result of rancid team management. The thick fuck genuinely believes our seasons has been derailed because some players got covid No. I genuinely can't believe anyone is that stupid. It's a convenient excuse is all. He's not going to sit in an interview and just admit he's not up to the job is he/ I was talking about Ashley who probably hasn’t seen us actually play for months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure they live in the same house so you're probably right. Which one is called Keith? No flip flopping with me lads. My position remains unchanged this changes nothing. All this reading into a tin pot coaching appointment and linking it with takeover will be proven to be illogical. I’m not prepared to spend time counselling the disbelievers any further though, it’s still very much on and I will be proven correct in not to distant future.

NG32 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 If the club stays up, we get taken over. It's as simple as that. Bruce is now the main threat to that happening. Challenge accepted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pons Alias Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Why is Ashley’s solution always to give a job to an ex-Luton manager? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinky Jim Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Appointing Jones makes sense to me.......I believe(I know) that takeover is imminent....though that could still be a few weeks or month away.....meanwhile Ashley doesn’t want to spend money(not his...but the clubs) on sacking Bruce and perhaps the new owners have intimated that they will be appointing their own manager when takeover is accomplished......So Ashley appoints Jones as “assistant manager”......if he’s lucky he’ll have immediate impact and results improve....if not, Bruce gets the push, Jones takes over as temporary manager.....new owners appoint new manager but keep Jones on as first team coach.....Ashley happy, Jones happy......US....depends where we are in the league?.....its a risky choice, but no way Ashley is spending any more money than necessary......If Jones is appointed this way, perhaps expect a couple of loan signings.....NO WAY is Bruce going to be given any say in the next 2 weeks.....Anyway it’s a half decent theory.

Scotty66 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 My twisted opinion is why would Ashley appoint a new manager if the takeover is close? The new manager would need a contract that would need to be paid off by the new owners. Sacking someone who has been in the job a few weeks would not look good. If the takeover was over/long way off, then I think Ashley would bring in a new manager to help protect the club from relegation. As it is, I think he knows its only a few weeks away then it's not his problem anymore, so he's just putting a plaster over the wound and not stitching it.

Exactly, if they’d appointed Eddie Howe on a 3 year contract I’d be joining the disbelievers. You’re terminology of a sticking plaster is spot on, it’s a very short term, cheap attempt to fix it. This won’t be Mike Ashley’s problem for much longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 There is thing such as caretaker or interim manager. There is no logical reason for keeping Bruce on other than looking at Ashley’s track record of taking a gamble by sticking with the manager until it’s too late. It’s happened twice now and a 3rd with carver avoided by a final day win. A takeover may well happen but sticking with Bruce and bringing in Jones to hold his hand has nothing to do with it. Ashley probably doesn’t want to admit defeat and that Rafa was actually over performing with what he had and his decision to appoint Bruce was as bad as the fans all said it would be Long and short of it is Ashley is two things a gambler and Stubborn and that’s the reason he’s sticking with Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
