The beauty in all of this is we got the piss ripped out of us when Short well and truly turned the taps off for the club and refused to fund it, yet when Ashley does less he’s ridiculed for it and they demand more.

I honestly believe he just likes taking the piss out of them and it’s his entertainment watching them lot carry on, he can afford to do it.

Class when they're calling him a fat bastard and it cuts to him and he just bursts out laughing :lol:
 
Why should it have stayed in the club?
The club owed Ashley £144 million (interest free) and he's maybe taken a bit of it back.

he could have done it like ellis and left it in the club until it was bought

Granted, its his money, he his entitled to it, but you would have been raging at Ellis as well if he had taken money out of SAFC when it was investment that was desperately needed at all levels of the club
 
Have you considered that the form/careers of various players have suffered under Benitez?

The organisation of the defence is his only thought.

In the meantime players like Murphy, Ritchie, Shelve, etc have become worse players.

The spark and creativity seems to be knocked out of players.

I'm sure that's why they choose to go to clubs like Watford instead of Newcastle, must be excruciatingly boring playing in a Benitez team.

I'm not sure if they have become worse players but the simple fact is they are championship level players. Saint Rafael was given money when they got relegated and he (rightly or wrongly) chose to spend it on proven championship players to get them up again. These players were going nowhere once they got promoted back up above their level.
Sunderland of all clubs know how difficult it is to get rid of the dross on your books when you are paying them more than they will get elsewhere.

There was NO money to take out of SAFC, zilch, zip, nowt, nothing. We were running at a £30 million annual loss, but hey, use any untruth you want to have a go at Mike.

Ashley is simply doing what he's entitled to do.
