The Ashley Regime - what will happen?

[smorgan86]

i'm hoping they did'nt want to stump up fat lads asking price because of uncertainty over relegation,and are comming back with a better offer the second safety is confirmed..tho why plastic mike lied about them not bidding is a mystery....trying to drum up a bigger offer from one of the other mystery intrested party's?..or tantrum because he couldnt get his own way.

tho he is a compulsive bullsh'itterter like!

True. The worry I have is that if we stay up, Stavely will come back with the 350; at which point, Ashley raises it to 400 or 450.

with the new tv deal being about the same,the slugs asking price should be the same...but who knows with the fat knacker,tho turning down a good offer,losing rafa and starting the season with minimum spend and a pardew type manager is a level of stupidity even fat mike would'nt stoop too............would he?

That's my concern to.

I think the original bid rested on the price of tv money deal, which league we'll be in and the HMRC thing.

Now the tv deal is settled and we'll know the league we're in by end of the season.

I think if we stay up, she'll come back in with another offer, closer to what he wants.

If we go down - we're ****ed, absolutely ****ed. Don't think we'd come straight back up either.
