The Bonk Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Ashley has sucked any sort of optimism out of our fanbase. Emery reneging didn’t help, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaks to the character of Howe that he won’t sign until everyone else is sorted. I think it’ll still go thru I was just stating it’s the very reason things dragged on and then failed with Celtic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited November 6, 2021 by cookidge Maybe it's to do with Jones' role opposed to him being there or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 It'll have nothing to so with Jones, if wasn't happy with that he wouldn't have agreed to take the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The structure of the back room might be an issue, as Jones said, he’s not going to stay just to be putting the cones out. They will have to come up with something that’s obviously a demotion, without it looking like one. The whole thing of a DoF coming in though might complicate things, this person is going to have to have faith in the ethos Eddie Howe brings and set up that structure accordingly. Think for this reason it’s going to be someone like the guy at City who’s running their youth setup as opposed to an Overmars or a Campos etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza ladra Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Jones isn't the reason. They wouldn't hold up this over him. (If they are holding things up on account of him, we're in trouble) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I thought the breakdown was over him wanting his owner technical director at Celtic ? I can’t see us agreeing to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfcastle Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Very 88/89 all this. Except for the abilities of the then Brazilian forward and the current one. Just don't know if Howe is going to be Jim Smith or Howard Kendall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 We shouldn't just let him do what he wants and bring in who he wants like, we need to plan for the future and we need a top class structure in place. You would hope he would be on board with that. The project is too big to be running the club like he's probably used to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only person I'd feel comfortable directing infrastructure building is Rafa. Otherwise they're here to coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he actually, therefore, was going to commit to us even if we went down? I assumed be was unhappy the termination clause would mean no payout rather than he wanted to stay.
