[Albion] Dan Ashworth

[Silverhatch]

The only part of this that makes me uneasy is that if his family still love in the Midlands and he has young-ish kids his Mrs could have thrown her toys out of the pram.

Villa not short of a few bob to throw his way either.

Like many other businesses I’m sure the Albion have seen the possibility of remote working. Bloom is Chairman from Perth. Ashworth can conduct part of his Tech Director remit from his home (wherever that is). He doesn’t have to be in Lancing 7 days a week.

I’d like to think his stock has risen a fair bit with the Lamptey and Lallana signings.

It has with me.
As per my previous posts, all I’d witnessed was fairly low key until then, still some way to go but definitely going in the right direction.

Perhaps you wanted rapid results when this was always a long-term appointment which would take time to reveal its outcomes. Bloom understands this, with his 'stewardship' of the club, and most of his key decisions (stadium, training ground, academy, ...) have been oriented to the long-term, and Ashworth doesn't depart from this.

What I observed was from the moment Ashworth was announced, our performances dropped, and when he arrived with the “my role is to keep the manager in a job”, which within 3 months is followed by CH sacking, and relative quick appointment of GP whose team Ashworth had been watching (possibly scouting)....... just felt a bit unBrighton like IMO......

However, you are right and the longer term strategy all appears to be going well.....

If you did have to be in Lancing 7 days a week it would kind of take the edge off the job!

I missed this thread the first two times round. What amazes me is how many people want the club to break it's wage structure. Have people not learned what happened when we were last in the top flight and where that got us ? Hereford .... that's where it got us !

Thankfully we have Bloom and Barber in charge and they will only pay what we or what Tony is happy to pay.

Doesn't that come under the category of heresy?

I think it comes under the category of complete bollocks!

Since the source of this rumour is a tweet from a twit whose chosen handle is [MENTION=26985]thatch[/MENTION]erlover, I don't view it as credible .

Oh blimey, it could be JCFootyGenius, armed with inside knowledge.

 

[dazzer6666]

A more realistic tweet perhaps

I didn't know that he'd found Ryan for us - very impressed that he'd do that for the club 18 months before joining us!

Allow me to put your mind at rest by highlighting an oxymoron in your post.

Technically Ashworth didn't find Mooy either as we'd tried to sign him in our first Premier League season when he rejoined Huddersfield. But for a tweet from a fan of another club it's pretty well balanced and informed, they clearly haven't read the twitter instructions.

Just shows the level of knowledge the people behind these ''headlines'' have. One day im sure Dan Ashworth will see his project here as largely complete & move onto bigger things but I highely doubt its to Aston Villa this summer.

A move to Aston Villa would be a career limiting decision

Quite, maybe they're offering 2 weeks free in a Spanish Villa to tempt him further.

The fact we had to wait for him to serve notice at the FA, I'm sure his contract now has similar terms he also has a great position in that he runs the full football side of the club and appears to have a good relationship with the CEO and owner, why move?
