RadioactiveWaste Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Well, the academy could use his coaching, and then all he needs to do is whisper in Mel's shell like during a match. Because in a public place where 30,000 people have gathered and TV cameras frequently focus on Mel to get his expressions is the perfect way to enact a devilish plan of cunningly undermining Wassall and taking the job himself.

Albert Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 He made his decision, and ultimately it's hard to have sympathy for him. Oh well, there's two ways of looking at this for him though. He either had his head turned and proved himself to be out of his depth when the chips are down, or he's been sacked twice in a year by two different clubs who look destined for Championship football in the medium term. What a contrast in fortunes though. He so easily could have finished last year with a promotion with us to his name, and now... well... this.

Gaspode Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Saw Ranieri being interviewed on TV last night - asked about whether he'd like the Italy job as he's on the bookies short-list. Categorically stated that he wasn't interested and that he wanted to stay at Leicester for the rest of his career - if only Steve had been so clear in his intentions......

Steve's actions did the talking. He DIDN'T leave for Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Could a mod combine this and the Benitez thread and rename it "Newcastle"? Just so I can put general Newcastle news somewhere irrelevant to both of them without having to create a third Newcastle thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Interesting, especially when you consider Rob Green can't get in the QPR team for the same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKRam Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 According to the mod of the other DCFC forum, members of this forum are kind of like Sun readers to him because we seem to like one liners with no substance. The below is reported at BBC rather than Sun, so I thought I should share it here in case some of you missed it: Mike Ashley: Newcastle owner 'regrets' involvement in football Newcastle owner Mike Ashley says he "regrets" buying the club and that its bank account is virtually empty. "Do I regret getting into football?" said Ashley. "The answer is yes. I have had tonnes of fun in it but I haven't been able to make the difference I wanted to in football." Ashley said: "All I say is, there is a bank account, when you have emptied it, it's empty." The Sports Direct owner, who bought the club in 2007, has seen his time in charge filled with controversy, but he has backed investment in the squad and handed over a £129m interest-free loan, according to the last published club accounts. He said: "I don't really want to have any influence in football to be honest. Looking after Sports Direct is more than a full-time job." http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/35865092 So even a man as wealthy as Mike Ashley could empty his bank account for his football club. According to an article published by the Derby Telegraph last year, Ashley's estimated wealth is £3.5 billion, which is of course a lot even compared to Mel Morris' £400 million.

I don't think he is talking about his own bank account... club could be in serious trouble if they do get relegated tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the information is in the public domain. We aren't writing a ******* scientific paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
