craig 5,199 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 That's fine if it only affects himself. However if his petty digs make it even harder for the club to extract themselves from the retail agreement then he should keep his mouth shut. Obviously I know nothing... but I would imagine that he believes that he has strong grounds on which to extract the Club otherwise he wouldn't have poked the bear (pun intended). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aweebluesoandso 290 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Dave King is under a court gagging order in his position as at TRFC, but is he under any such gagging order (apart from the normal directorship rules on giving information) in his position in RRL? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo 7,037 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Well I was in the superstore on Saturday and have to say its pretty dire might be better turning it into a burger shop until we can get shot of Ashley and his sports direct contract . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
limeburner 0 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Correct as that is, it is not even close to how low Ashley himself has handled his dealings with Dave King. It is all too easy for us to expect more of our custodians, but none of us were being hounded, bullied and effectively threatened with jail terms by a small-minded vindictive egomaniac. I also would prefer King didn't make the dig at Ashley (especially as Dave King has had his own issues with SARS), but I can also understand that sometimes it is difficult to not take an opportunity when it arises to have a pot shot at someone that has a clear vendetta against you. I agree,however Ashley didnt threaten to jail David King,he actively put the wheels in motion and failed because a judge ruled against him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The threat of jail time came from actions taken by Ashley and, depending on who you believe, Ashley wanted him jailed. I believe we are arguing semantics. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And where did I say he wasn't grandstanding ? And would "threatened with jail" not be the same thing as "he wanted him jailed" ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
