The latter. Cost cutting once more, Harper’s doing the job for the rest of the season. Looks like stripping it down to bare bones, which could be for a sale, but more likely could be typical Ashley tight fisted business model.
Never heard of him, but still I can say for definite that he's a useless ****, on the basis of the appalling dross that comes out of our academy.
Well he obviously helped get the Cat 1 status. I assume he must have been a big part of that, its certainly happened under his watch. I'd question what we've produced under his watch, but then is that more down to the next stage? Certainly Armstrong, Toney, Longstaffs have looked primed for development when leaving his watch. We just seem to have ****ed it up thereafter. Once the takeover goes through he'd be replaced anyway
I'd be fairly confident that will have to do with the court case between his family and the club. No matter how you slice it there's no way you could come back to work having sued your own company and epect to work to the same standards win or lose, especially when you are on a finite contract with an end date - probably been paid for the remainder and will be employed somewhere else shortly.
