Can't see it. All football people do this he just got caught.
Got caught by copying his employer into an email confirming he was looking to leave.

I don't think it's the greatest crime in the world either, but it's a reflection on his competence. Glad he isn't here

I'm "Team Easy" with fork in right hand. The only other thing I do left-handed is cast a fishing rod!
You should reel in with your left hand if you are right handed when fresh water fishing apparently. I don’t as I’m originally a sea fisherman,
There I’ve said it.

Yep. I do freshwater and sea and it LHW fresh and RHW sea (which is logical I guess as the sea rod with a multiplier is upside down ?)

Dan Ashworth left in no man's land as Newcastle respond to Man Utd's final offer​


Dan Ashworth's future is in limbo after Newcastle rejected a £3million compensation offer from Manchester United. United's top brass have taken the stance that Newcastle will have to continue to pay Ashworth's wages for him to do nothing unless a compromise is reached. It's claimed that Newcastle are holding out for £15m after rejecting United's final offer for Ashworth. The 53-year-old has agreed a contract with the Red Devils.

Such a shame for everyone involved :laugh:

I can understand Newcastle United’s stance here. Ashworth was seemingly breaching his contract by colluding with contacts whilst on gardening leave and they are within their rights to keep him on Gardening leave if they feel Man United don’t pay what they want as a release clause.
Damages both clubs but seems as if Newcastle are flexing their financial muscles.

It may be the beheaders doing it and they have the finances to sign it off as petty cash whilst being difficult but I applaud any club making life difficult for jumpers who have not been there long. The fact that he seems to have been a dickhead in his negotiations makes it quite amusing to me. Not as smart as he thinks, so sharp in fact that he seems to have cut himself.

Not so smart? He's being paid an eye-watering amount of money for staying home and doing nothing!

If he’d rather do that than be at the sharp end with a top PL team be it Newcastle or United you may be right, but I doubt he’s happy with it personally

From i:
Newcastle United’s majority owners the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) are fully supportive of the revised recruitment vision set out by director of football Paul Mitchell – with work having already begun on planning for the next two transfer windows.

The Magpies are in the process of redrawing their strategy in response to tightening Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR), with Mitchell at the centre of plans to overhaul recruitment to become more “data-informed” and global in their talent ID with the ability to extract value from under-tapped markets.
Makes you wonder what Ashworth's contribution was.

Good question....he was there for two years and there didn't seem to be any discernible transfer strategy. It seems a million miles away from the BHAFC approach - their signing of Minteh looks anomolous (almost certainly one that Ashworth "stole" from us). And they've ended up with that Greek goalie who was second choice at Forest - almost certainly as some sort of make-weight* in the deal to take Elliott Andersen the other way (*possibly enabling them to record a higher value for Anderson, as a result of PSR constraints....the fact that they were anywhere close to breaching PSR must surely reflect poorly on Ashworth). They've almost got as many goalies as Chelsea!!
