[Football] Dan Ashworth **Sacked by Man U 08/12/24**

[LamieRobertson]

They were close to relegation when he came in and most of their signings were successful, which is the main reason why they've finished top 7 two seasons in a row.

ah so no joke…


erm I doubt he had any impact on Newcastle avoiding relegation …wasn’t he still on gardening leave? Did he pick the side ..coach them…those in the know suggest he had little to do with their subsequent signings..Howe apparently does a lot of his own scouting and relies a lot on Andy Howe…. …..I think u are vastly overestimating his impact there

 

[Insel affe]

Meh

 

[Guinness Boy]

So, do we want him back or not?!

Anyone know?

Well, no. Another like Potter or Jake Humphrey who’ll do a half decent job once and live off it for the rest of their life. United have found him out.

Dan Ashworth is very good at his job and has been fired because Man Utd haven’t got a clue. To reset the culture there, and create a strategy and identity to enable future success is a multi year task that is going to need some short term pain and patience.

The fact they have bottled it within 5 months when DA has had 4 games to work with a new manager and no transfer windows shows Utd are still a total basket case. Bad for Dan but bloody hilarious for those of us that want to see Utd rot for evermore.

 

[Justice]

Wow
Describing our recruitment over the summer as a splurge!

You never know maybe TB won some crazy bet threw £200m on the table and said have a splurge on some players lads.
Whoever decided to buy Wieffer needs sacking apart from that all good.

 

[Statto]

He seems to have a real problem staying at clubs doesn't he!

 

[Anger]

Well, no. Another like Potter or Jake Humphrey who’ll do a half decent job once and live off it for the rest of their life. United have found him out.

Imagine Jake Humphrey as Director of Football….

Now, there’s a thought.

And not a pleasant one.

I reckon he’s got quite good at this gardening lark….i’m off for a bit due to health issues and hoping he might fill the gap

Fixt ..............

 

[timbha]

New owners want their own people and someone to blame

Turns out it was more about Blooms algorithm after all.

He only need to have won a mere £153miilion as apparently that was our net spend

You could always try your hand at being a Sporting Director for a bit. I reckon you could do most of it sitting down

Get well soon

This is hilarious. He left Brighton for a bigger, better (more lucrative) project, left Headchoppers FC for a bigger, better (more lucrative) project, and gets fired after 5 months.
Will Todd be on the dog and bone this afternoon?

If he ever gets a Golden Retriever I reckon Monty Don could be on the way out of Gardeners’ World and ol’ Cashworth could get that gig next.

lol….good idea….wonder if they advertise in the local rag….and thanks

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

Stay humble Dan, stay humble.

 

[Weststander]

The Telegraph reported yesterday post Forest loss that he looked concerned or ashen. Knew what was coming?

Obviously very wealthy now, but damaging for his ego.

 

[Seagull58]

Its beginning to look like it was Brighton making him look good.

I'm not sure about that. More likely that Brailsford wanted to make all the decisions and so there was no role for Ashworth.
