    How much more do you think we end up playing for players because of Charnley being a tyre kicker?

    People buy and sell to and from people. If I were dealing with Charnley and had a £10m asset then if he offered £2m i’d Dig my heels in and not budge one inch due to him taking the piss.

    He and Ashley have cost NUFC roughly £150m. That’s the cost of Charnley and what he stands for.

    Just the way the ****er does business, always low balling, funny though read a piece in the press yesterday about Ashley trying to buy commercial property in Brixton, he had £30 million to chuck at that!!

    Yep. Ashley has money that he can invest as he wishes.
    If he chooses not to put his own money into the club then so be it and what he does with his money outside of the club is up to him.
    I would like to see the club spend some bloody money though and Charnley seems to take the piss!

    Sports Direct is probably closer to home.

    It's hard to believe that teams like Bournemouth have spent as much as £20m on a player recently, and yet our record transfer remains Michael Owen from 2005.

    Charnley is a ****. I could tell some stories about what a grade a cock he is [How he does things] based on personal experience.

    This. Not that anyone needs more reason to hate this reclusive prick, but would be good for laughs.

    Notice not even a sniff of news - swear to God that ****er doesn't work weekends.

    He's an arrogant twat for starters. I spoke with him on the phone through work. What an absolute tosspot. Refuses to take responsibility for things and delegates often. Talks down to people at the club. He takes forever to sign things of/ respond to people. He is a major stumbling block with transfers apparently.

    if there are no signings other than loans by Tuesday night Charnley has to go for me
    I can't see anything happening on Wednesday - match day

    he should be told in no uncertain terms where to stick his friendship with Ashley

    The problem is the time he has in, 15 years plus. He pre dates Ashley and I think Ashley must mike him. Gonna be an awkward dismissal.

    If Ashley is staying I reckon he'll change things in the summer regardless of Tuesday. He'll more likely put someone in between him and Rafa responsible for transfers. However Ashley runs lean so Lee may have to go. There is not really a sideways move for him.

    Ashley could gain popularity if he did sack Charnley. He may have been at the club for a while but he is clearly incompetent.

    It’s a shambles that at this stage of the transfer window we still have not bought someone to help us out.

    Ashley pulls the strings don’t anyone kid themselves. He pays Charnley to take the stick. Ashley is not a stupid man. We may have a **** team and suffered two relegations but he still has a club worth as much as paid for it.

    Ashley is the one that is laughing. Charnley is just a pawn on his chessboard.

    this is why we need to voice our objections at Charnely as Ahley is thick skinned
    we'll see if Charnley can handle the **** once it starts flying
