Ashley at the game

And the one reason and one reason only we are cannon fodder for the elites is the fat Fu(king waste of sperm we have as an owner. You cannot even begin to argue that fact. The clear lack of investment for a club that is absolutely crying out for it is disgraceful. But no doubt you and your dosser mate will find a way to blame that on Rafa. You seem to think by writing in an educated manner you therefore talk a good game. When the fact of the matter is all you talk is utter drivel.

The fat kernt is now saying landlords are greedy in not accepting his offer of paying zero rent for certain HoF stores .
... A ****ing billionaire asking to pay no rent .. He makes your skin crawl .

Warped WUM cnt, we dont have to be cannon fodder for the elites with reasonable investment from the money that the club generates. Remember that one?

When he took over we were in the elite.

We were in Europe and the top 6.

The fact we've now had 2 relegation and are having to fight our way around the bottom to survive means we've not been invested in surely. . .

You're not going to blame every manager we've had since and excuse the fat **** that is our owner?

He's gutted our club. We'll never grow again till he's gone and even when he's gone the damage he's done might take years to undo.

We came straight back up as champions and finished 10th. It's certainly not scraping around the bottom.

We've finished 10th a few times under Ashley and 5th, plus lower down, naturally.
A lot of this has been done with big spends....up and down the league.
We aren't just surviving, we are fighting it out for top spot among those clubs outside of the top 6...basically.
As for fighting higher. That depends on us being allowed like the rest. It's down to the hierarchy of the football governing and officials following their protocol......in my honest opinion.

I seriously think Ashley is too scared to take any risk with that in mind. I certainly do think he's willing to play the pot and I believe he has done on many occasions.
This time I think there's a bit of a chess stalemate.
One ego against the other.

I'll blame any manager who can't get the best out of players.
I'll blame Ashley when I think he deserves blame...but I won't waste too much time on blaming him when his input is mainly away from the club and in his place are his paid employees to do the business.

I don't believe he has. That's where we have to differ.
This club was on its way to being gutted before Ashley took over. It was on its knees, financially.

Your choice. Write it off if you want to. I live in hope that Rafa either plays football or we get some manager in who can coach this squad to play football.

I really don't understand you ghost.

I just don't get your mentality when it comes to Rafa/Ashley.

What would it take for you to agree that Ashley is destroying the club?

Who in your opinion, could make better use of the talent our players have ?

For everyone else to start supporting Ashleys actions
He would then turn against Ashley just so he could be the minority
