christ Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 In the brief window he worked for us Ashworth managed to sign a gambling addict who was subsequently given a ten month ban, tried and failed to agree a new contract with Bruno (until the higher ups intervened), tried and failed to agree a new contract with Joelinton (until the higher ups intervened), and then rounded it all off by letting the club know he was being tapped up because he was apparently oblivious to our IT policy. I trust this ‘hub and spoke’ model of management he loves is probably pretty effective when the right people are involved. However, when you couple all of this stuff with his very dodgy handling of the Mark Sampson case when he was at the FA he comes across as a bit of a boob. Tony Bloom’s big spreadsheet football wonderkids has a lot to answer for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Just thinking, we've had this from the start and why we went in for £20m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checko Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Speaking to another club about a potential job opportunity is fair enough. Speaking to someone you know shouldn't be working for another club about that job and [if true] passing over confidential information is, to use a technical legal term, well dodge.

Dokko Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Should really end his career, might be he's paying legal costs for some time. Instead of going for manure for £20m, let's go at him, unless manure can save his skin this week and pay up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggys First Goal Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Kinda disappointed that we fell for this cunt in the first place. If I’m Man Utd, I’d probably start doubting whether he is actually the guy they want. Bloke’s head gets turned at the sniff of interest. Now he seems incompetent enough to not know how bloody emails work. Maybe the change their mind. Maybe everybody in football finally sees what a little weasel Ashworth is. His career might be over.

Joelinton7 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) Think they’ve twigged on RC now that at best Berrada is in trouble and that we actually are allowed to view Dan’s work emails. They’re not happy. Edited May 21 by Joelinton7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordJake Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Kept quiet for a week or so on this but from a very well informed source our chairman was less than impressed with Ashworth’s behaviour. His stance was there were two outcomes; Man U pay what we want or we are happy to pay his wages until his contract expires Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skjaere9 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 This whole story is hilarious and seems like it can only help us, but the part that is most fun to think about imo is: Who’s fed this to Hope now, and why? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 What a start to the Ratcliff tenure. My God I imagine this all got uncovered as we started digging deeper into things in preparation for the arbitration case they raised? This is too good man.

Probably leaked it to let Man Utd know that we know. And we've got them all ends up if it goes to arbitration. And so they can save us both some time and deposit the £20 million pronto.

One last push to get the full amount before June 30 to give us FFP headroom immediately, yeah? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BergenMagpie Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Is this really going to arbitration anyways? Thought that was just a dumb twitter rumour. The terms should be on the contract? We could ask for 2 billion if we wanted to keep him on gardening leave for the full duration, no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Ratcliffe hasn't got a scooby on how to run a football club. He's massively out of his depth. Sure @Froggy will tell us otherwise, may even keep a straight face whilst doing so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Seems quite obvious now that he’s an idiot but clever enough to phrase his job description dumb enough so that football people get it. That whole centre of the wheel rubbish is just a way of saying he takes credit for other people’s work. Total weasel and his reputation is in tatters. I don’t even care about the compo at this point, he’s not going to improve Man Utd. He’ll just be privy to information that could damage us if others know our plans.. which he’s probably disclosed already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
