Little General 80 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Good appointment. This will strengthen Ashley's influence and we know that we need to be successful for Ashley to make money. where are people getting this guff from? Ashley is already making money from a dysfunctional Rangers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hildy 0 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 When the new manager is eventually appointed, let's just hope that it's after interviewing a number of high calibre candidates. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,613 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) IMHO, part of Ashley's dealings could well be down to finally giving his ego some silverware, a bit like SDM. He can get SD money from both Rangers and Newcastle without "owning" both clubs, he can reasonably only get silverware and probably some Euro fame* via us though. Whether that is what he is looking for is anyone's guess, but I still deem it as plausible as any other theory whipped up about him thus far. @ Hildy ... the rumour is (FF et al) that Billy Davies is essentially a done deal. At this moment and time a 2 year deal to get us back to the top does not really need a "high calibre" chap who'd cost much money. And in any case, if we have 500 members on here who'd have to decide on a high calibre name, we'd come up with roughly 475 first choice candidates. *I speak about him, not exactly SD. EDIT: Regarding Llambias, that's the second time such an announcement gives monetary information, even though not as exact as they did with McCoist.

I see panto season has reached Berlin. The only silver he's interested in is the stuff that jangles in his pockets. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he cared one iota about silverware he would have stumped up the cash to pay off the manager. If he cared about silverware he would be investing in our future. All he cares about is furthering SD and he will do the bare minimum to achieve that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
