HaydnNUFC Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) This has just been a total shitshow. Whoever is leaking stories needs to fuck off. April/May 2020 - "Its gonna go through, no red flags." It didn't go through. October 2021 - "We're gonna sack Bruce." They didn't, left him for one more embarrassing defeat to a shit Spurs team. Then again, Jones would probably have done no better. November 2021 - "Emery is #1 choice and he's agreed to come, be in for Brighton on Saturday." Day later he stays at Villarreal. What a fucking joke. Edited November 3, 2021 by HaydnNUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It getting to the press has to be a first strike against Staveley if I'm PIF. Reminds me of the nonsense years ago when Ashley was accusing her of playing games during the first takeover attempt.

Also got turned down by ex Celtic boss, David Hay. Anyone else I've missed out from then? Arthur Cox as well, or at least he turned it down before it was offered. Didn't know about Hay, so that was even worse than I though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge fantastical promises and more money than sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the media were reporting it as a done deal is the issue. Targeting a manager of Emery's class is exactly what the club should be doing. It reflects badly on daft cunts like him because they said it was a done deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind no need to dig Staveley out personally, the whole consortium have been involved He has a very odd obsession with dragging her down at every opportunity. I can only assume because she doesn't feed him any info at all and he's bitter about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got no issue with Emery rejecting us, it's the way it's been played out in the press looking like amateur hour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 As I said a couple of pages ago, the only error made was this going public. If Emery didn't fancy it, fair enough. Whoever leaked it at best needs a serious dressing down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I'm more worried if Charnley is driving discussions as to the new owners decision making. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Thomson Mouse said: You being serious? Yep. The takeover was a shitshow, took 18 months to complete. Delaying sacking Bruce was a shitshow. Appointing the new manager & DOF has been a shitshow. This doesn't bode well for transfers or anything else. The fact Charnley is still around is telling. He's the only one with experience in the football world in the club's hierarchy. Best thing they can do, is to bring in 2-3 key people from another club like City did Barcelona. Overmars, whoever handled the business side of transfers and whoever handled youth development at Ajax for example. Seemingly, they bought the club without a clear plan as to how to take it. IMO from the start they should have had a list of football people in mind to take top jobs and tapped them up.

nufcjmc Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Spending so many weeks "wasting" time on a candidate which appears at best was on the fence about the whole thing isn't great and shows the lack of how football works knowledge the team are still waiting to build in.
