Some legitimate questions from Mark Douglas there. The bits about the academy, the training ground and the role of Justin Barnes.

Bell end....how come chief sports editor Bong Eye never puts his name on the Panorama type Shoite?
 

Very good day for everyone who works at The House Of Fraser. They were heading for admin. Him buying it is the best they could have hoped for.

Nothing whatever to do with that lot, although it's true many of them will work up a pointless lather about it all, egged on by grandstanding politicians and badly informed talking idiots on TV and radio.

I’d still be wary if I worked there , I know there was a recovery plan which meant about 30 shops were to close , but Ashley is a ruthless businessman and I can see him cutting more jobs if it means profits rise further. Theres also a rumour of a HOF/Debenhams merger which will mean even more closures.

Be great if Ashley goes down the renaming the stadium route again.

The Sports Direct House of Debenhams Stadium.
 
I don’t get it, even when short owned us I didn’t expect him to put every penny of his own money into us for buying new players etc. Why do they expect Ashley to do so, he’s a business man guess what he’s going to use his money to buy up other businesses etc doesn’t mean he should spend that £90m on a famusssss number nine.
 
I told the wife (no!) that theses would be the next tweets coming. One thing's for sure - when it comes to understanding finance, they just divvent understand :)
Just waiting for the Ashley statement to his shop managers "I've told them they can have every penny the shop generates. We can't compete with the likes of Harrods, Selfridges and Harvey Nicks..."

Running it like a Primark when the fans/customers just want to be competitive with Debenhams and maybe in a good year challenge John Lewis

I'm wondering how long it will be before some of HOF premises are sports direct outlets.
 
We knew there would only be one winner when Bouncy fronted up to Ashley.



“If we have to talk about a possible extension we will talk."

He’s not even using his number to by HoF. It’s Sports Direct buying it.

Of course he'll have a new contract, 100 k a week + and no blame attatched to him if things go tits up, he's f***ing laughing all the way to the bank.
wor rafa
 
That will be put down to Benitez winning, being honourable and loving the toon.
Let’s see if anyone else wants him in a role that suits him quite as much as this where he is like Teflon
Yer divnt undastand man wor Rafa loves the toon.
 
Wonder if those mags working for HoF in the Metro are thankful to Mike for saving their jobs. Bedsheet out tomorrow saying ‘thanks for saving hoose of Fraser’.
