So with Ashleys reign hopefully soon at an end. I thought we would have a little poll to discuss the many failures of the cockney mafia.
For me the dismissal of KK as this changed and dispelled the initial optimism that had existed following Ashley’s purchase of the Club and set the tone for the rest of his dictatorship.
Jo Kinnear twice. I seriously could not believe it, man is likely an alcoholic judging by how he sometimes comes across and he's on deaths ****ing door constantly. Im 100% positive it was to give him a few quid.
Think he has been excelling himself this Corona Virus season. Thought being the first Premier League to furlough our non-playing staff was right up there. Hope the new owners come in and pay all the money claimed to date back to the government
The Keegan thing was the worst thing. A club Legend. Belittled Lied to The beginning of the end JFK though an odd appointment didn't DIY any worse than some other managers appointed. If the option was there I would have chosen Chris Houghton sacking
Was the recruitment of McClaren.a shock? We all know Ashley does everything on the cheap and would do everything he could to avoid paying for a a manger, so an out of work McClaren was perfect for him. Likewise making Carver manager was completely predictable as it was the cheap option. Giving Pardew a huge contract wasn't a mega surprise either as we clearly knew he was a yes man who put up with the **** behinds the scenes, so perfectly for Ashley. The most Wtf moment for me was the fact we managed to attract a manager of Rafa's quality to work under such a stupid regime. The fact he left was no surprise at all.
I would actually have to go for Rafa coming in the first place. I never in a million years thought that would come off...it was definitely a WTF moment for me like !
But didn’t Rafa’s “people” approach NUFC as opposed to NUFC approach Rafa? Still, I can’t understand how Penfold got Cashers to sign off on the salary.
switching to the keegan option.... that was the time we all realised how bad things were going to get.
I dont watch this show , but I saw this and imagined KK being spoke to around a table like this... no wonder he quit .. id strangle him
Wise was a big part of the Wimbledon crew back in the day. He's a cocky mouthy little dwarf and was raised around bullies.
i learned everything I need to know about him from that clip.. a little ****.. its always little people isnt it .. theyre always the worst for some reason.
I voted JFK because of all the penny pinching, pig-ignorant, shambolic decisions this monumental thundercunt has made, that decision - made twice, mind you - was a very deliberate middle finger at the fans. It came at the height of the (quite embarrassing) 'cockney mafia' comments and there's literally nobody more cockney than Kinnear. Ashley's a horrific individual. It's incredible he basically trousers £300m in a day or two. 13 years of neglect, harm, almost sociopathic abuse of a footballing institution and he walks away scot free with £300m in the bank. The World's in a bad place.
