I’d much rather have Ashley! I don't think Chansiri is a despicable bloke but I do think he lacks respect for the average supporter. Comes across at times because he is a mega rich bloke that he automatically thinks we should be subservient to him. 49 minutes ago, Willie Henderson said: Maybe, just maybe, there's someone out there that is both. A long shot I know. Being a successful businessman you are bound to have stepped on a few toes along the way. The type of personality you sometimes need to succeed isn't always a lovely and cuddly human being. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I manage to pull it off, successful, lovely and cuddly, as I always tell my staff. Or prisoners with jobs as I like to think of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 If Ashley wants another club, it will be Derby. Just the type of distressed business he likes. I'll eat my hat if its not them (subject to the rumour he wants another club being true). The only complication I can see is what Morris wants to do with the stadium he bought.

Southie_Owl Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Once Ashley buys Derby then they will establish themselves as a PL club sooner than we will ever get there Edited October 7, 2021 by Southie_Owl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperwinngardensowl Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I have met Ashley on a number of occasions and worked at a high level at their Shitebrook (as we all called it) Head Office. I think Chansiri has been an unmitigated disaster for this club and would still prefer him as Chairman to Ashley. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Ashley is quite a sensible business man isn't he?? Which means he won't be going anywhere near Derby in their current state! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvin Parsnip Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Doesn’t he own Flannels? They have just opened their flagship store in Meadowhall… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Imagine being a Newcastle fan tonight, knowing your club is now richer than Man City and the success it’s brought them. I’d imagine it’s a similar feeling to when I learnt Geoff Sheard was buying us with a rich Eastern European consortium who wanted to make us the “Chelsea of the north”… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ^ ask Newcastle fans if they’d like to have swapped Ashley for Chansiri and see how they feel about the guy then.

Mike Ashley couldn't bring more money in - nobody can because of the EFL rules - and they are worse in L1. What positives is he bringing to the party? I think Ashley knows a little more than DC at getting around things and has better lawyers. Quite like the guy, just won't happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe boring premier league mediocrity wouldn’t seem so bad Newcastle fans would’ve swapped Niall Quinn and Peter Reid for Ashley, they hate the bloke. I’d honestly rather have DC. He’s made a right boIIocks of things but I really can’t stand Mike Ashley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
