Mick Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Absolutely, but don't expect thickmick to take any sensible view that doesn;t put Shepherd in a bid light, such is his bitterness at someone actually being better off than him. What a sad man. Noticeably, and predictably, he didn't respond to my comments about the failed flotation in 1991, which is of course is because he wasn't interested in the club, preferring to slate the board who attracted him back and made the club the attraction it is today. He thinks that the club of the 1970's and 1980's were run by a board "the same as" one who qualified for europe on a regular basis .......... mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif Classic symptoms of a bandwagon jumper complaining that the success they came back for hasn't materialised. mackems.gif So predictable, any reason why you took exception to me mentioning the extra penny per share when far worse was said against Shepherd? Was anything about him hanging on for the extra money not factual? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 One thing I wouldn't mind having cleared up: When did Shephard join the club, and in what capacity was he before being made chairman? Also, in which year was he made chairman? From the club accounts ... William Frederick Shepherd: Appointed director of the football club in November 1991 and subsequently as chairman in July1998. Appointed as Non-executive director of Newcastle United PLC in December 1998, became a full time Executive Director in August 2001 ands was appointed Chairman in 2002. (NE5 will disagree with me on this as I've taken it from a club publication, but you can probably assume it is okay) So in other words, while he was chairman: Dodgy Dalglish transfers Appointment of Gullit Start of decline under Robson commenced shortly after his second spell as chairman commenced Sacking of Bobby Robson Appointment of Souness Signing of Owen and others. Accused by both Souness and Robson as the man actually in charge of transfers. Appointment of Roeder Appointment of Allardyce And while he was at the club, but not chairman: Appointment of Keegan Signing of Shearer 2nd in the league Appointment of Dalglish Appointment of Robson Champions League Qualification. No-one disagrees with any of the statements here then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Whoever this 'source' close to Mike Ashley I think Christopher Mort is the source & he may get a job as director. His profile is @ http://www.freshfields.com/pf2/Profile.aspx?empno=2512&languageID=11 OH YES BABY!!!!!! I will take a goldstar for that prediction.

Thespence Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Informed or complete guess? Neither. It was Guardian + Observer + Google, so I reckon that is more of guess than informed, although I will accept calls or emails from Mike Ashley if he needs my advice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
