    IF Ashley stays do you think it could be plausible that, if NUFC appoint a cheaper manager... Ashley may look to replace Penfold with someone:

    1- Experienced
    2- More competent
    3- Better at communicating
    4- who loos less like an 80's cartoon character

    Just a thought... but if we were to take Rafa's wages at £6m and add on Penfold's salary at £150k.... then we could easily pay £3-4m for a manager.... £1m for a proper chief exec... and have cash to spare for Ashley's back pocket and maybe another director.

    Or am I giving the rotund one too much credit as a business strategist?

    He will either stay to work with another good manager. Or if its a crap manager he may get replaced with a really good chief exec. Mike won't allow a perfect storm to develop where everyone in their role is actually good at their job.

    I’ve just had a shocking thought. Why replace penfold and get a new manager. Penfold could BE the new manager. Win win. Save 6million and invest in Greggs.

    It is ‘out of the box’ thinking like that that could make you an ideal candidate for the job.
