Happy Face 29 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Has Shepherd really gone? I can't tell the difference tbh. Sums it up perfectly. Leazes was right! Hasn't Ashley put £250m into the club though, reducing the debt etc? Bought for £100M odd, $75M of debt and £10M on players isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumping that much money into the club,you would have thought the managers being linked now would be of a higher quality like. aye. that's what's been the thing that's disappointed me so much. i thought he might try for a really big name and back him to the hilt but redknapp could be a shepherd appointment tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggiespaws 0 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I know some people will laugh at me, but why is the possibility of Mourinho so distant? Before him, Chelsea weren't that great (admittedly they'd won the FA cup) but they were hardly pushing for top spot. Abramovich brought with him his Roubles and appointed a seriously top class manager. City have done feck all for years and and been in and out of the premier league twice in the time we've been in it, yet they can get Sven with their billionaire. This place is stressful and the job might be a poisoned chalice, but I think a lot of people would calm down a bit an be prepared to give someone time if we really thought they had a decent shout of taking us somewhere. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 (edited) SSN have just said that in the last few minutes "unconfirmed reports that representatives of Portsmouth and Newcastle are thrashing out compensation" And Alan Oliver said 20 minutes ago that it appears to him to be a "done deal" Edited January 11, 2008 by LeazesMag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 (edited) Has Shepherd really gone? I can't tell the difference tbh. Sums it up perfectly. Leazes was right! For some reason, I feel slightly optimistic. Mainly on the basis that his teams play with more intelligence, movement and pace, so if he is backed, and spends the money well, you never know. Latest news on SSN is he has just left Portsmouths training ground. Didn't say where he was going though.

Guest Patrokles Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I think the best thing to do would be to just withdraw my support for the entire club, make anti-Ashley banners, and cry myself to sleep every night before the new manager has even had a few games to show his intent.
