I'd imagine most people who have had any sort of dealings with him will share a similar assessment.

Whelan = bitter twat.

Grounds for banning yet?

Just bought my tickets to see him in February.

Aye but as we know all too well the manager's opinion is secondary to that of Wise and Vetere's.

Aye it'll take a bit of footballing sense but most of all it'll take business sense. Personally I don't think that Ashley has much of either but we have to hope that he's clever enough to realise that relegation will hurt both him and us and that in the end all he's worried about is himself.

Exactly. That's the problem. Now that the two potential buyers have entered into due diligence then that 12m would have to be reflected somewhere if he were to be sold so it would be unlikely to go straight into Ashley's pocket. And should these two buyers not exist? then what? or for that matter they exist but dont complete by end January? My belief is that during the transfer window Ashely will sell everything of note to replace them with cheap buys. If the club is sold then yes that cash would have to be accounted for but otherwise its his fallback, pull in as much as possible from a "firesale" so he has cash if no buyer completes. I see what you're saying but if he does have a firesale then he'll have a bit in cash but then he runs the risk of getting us relegated with vastly reduced income next season and a far less attractive asset to sell. It's very much in Ashley's interest to ensure that we stay up this season.

Cheers.

According to newspaper reports (I know, I know) those are the areas that Wise is targeting for January.

I saw him last night and it was as bad as people have been saying. The Partridge bit was great just after the interval but the 'play' that followed it was woeful and the song and dance to finish was shocking, I didn't think Coogan would stoop so low as to try and get laughs by simply repeating the word 'cunt' throughout the song but I guess I was wrong.

I can't see Mancienne going to Wolves full time now after getting an England call up, ahead of Taylor.

Wasn't there a report on this a couple of years ago which said the exact same thing? Hardly a shocker. Next thing they'll be telling us that pay as you go mobile users are paying more for their calls.

I managed to get a few quid on at 14/1 just incase there was any truth in this.

Keane. I'd love to see it, I'd be surprised that he will have the cash to spend in January that he thought he was going to get, the consortium of owners would've taken a big hit financially in recent times.

Mum of the Year? Choose between past winners such as Jordan, Sharon Osbourne and Kerry Katona as Britain's maternal role models.

Why wouldnt he? Him and Dennis can pick out some young up and coming stars in Jan, organised by JK, clear out some of the dead wood, you can then push on up the table. fuck off and die Harsh but ultimately fair.

Which of course Ashley won't.

Swingers - Money.

They're certainly doing better than my local team - rock bottom.

Not too many driving taxis.

Plying his trade in Finland these days.

It feels like a lifetime ago to me.
