They knew what AR wanted from day one. If they weren't going to give him that why are we f*cking around nearly 2 months later.
There won't be any, they'll just shut up and let the resentment fester. I feel sorry for the poor ****er who takes over now

Clearly the media, bookies and fans haven't a clue what is going on in the background so anything and everything is purely speculative at this late moment.

If Ramsey wanted money, he wouldn't have been here in the first place.

What's he going to Mexico for, the Tequila ? If it's true he'd be a lunatic to take his family, and to leave them would seem decidedly odd as at odds with what he's said.

The only playing option on the table? Perhaps he's been told that his body won't deal with another European winter and will hold up better in a warmer climate. I dunno; we're dealing with a mad belief that he has another full season in him and it's difficult to make sense with mad beliefs.

I don't know why so many are firmly against Evatt. he has a better overall record than Buckingham (,or Ramsey) in my opinion

It seems pretty obvious that he's trying to prolong his playing career until next summer in case Wales qualify for the World Cup.

Even though he gets injured if he plays more than 1 game……at least he gets to play in Mexico but I can’t see it being for wales

He was on a reported £35k per week. So £1.8 million per annum!!
Hardly chicken feed!!

Yes, and he ripped up a 100k a week deal with Nice to come here

To play football, as no European club is going to offer him a contract.
Ramsey ripped up 100k a week deal at Nice to come here for significantly less, allegedly around a 1/4 of that. He's been on 400k a week, he doesn't need the cash. He's going to play as we've messed him around so much.
When these things keep happening, how about we look at who keeps making them happen? Vincent Bloody Tan

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
So he has been paid £3.6 million by the club over 2 years and moved back to his home area, but contributed unfortunately very little.

Yes. He was well paid but if it was all about the money, he'd have stayed in France where he'd have earned 5m in 1 season.
You can say what you want about Ramsey and his time here, the club offered him the job and they didn't seal the deal. We sacked Riza 2 months ago, this is a farce of one man's making and it isn't Aaron Ramsey
-
Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
I am not blaming Ramsey for anything! He came here but it didn't work out.
He has now decided to move on.
Ramsey has done nothing wrong but he has decided to leave now his contract is at an end.

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
I'm not angry at Ramsey one bit. He was just going to be this ownership's fall guy to take the abuse when the results don't start coming in. If Tan, Choo and to a lesser extent, Dalman, think they can run this club without footballing minds, just do us a favour and at least be upfront about it. Any footballing role is a poisoned chalice with these clowns in charge.
At the very least, I might keep Dalman for a bit so that a new owner doesn't have to pay off his debt also. But Tan and Choo need to f off from footballing ventures forever.
If it wasn't for Sheffield Wednesday looking like the next Reading, we'd be the worst run club in the 92.
-
Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
I fully understand why Dalman et al don't communicate with fans.
They haven't a clue what's going on themselves, so what on earth are they able to tell us?
Right now Tan is getting himself ready for the first team talk he's going to give.

Wasn’t he on 400k a week at juventus? Two years of that after 10 at arsenal I don’t think money is of any concern ever

I’d rather be sheff weds than us…..

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
An experienced old head on a 1 year deal. ? Just to stop the rot and a year for maybe Tan to move on. Or Nathan Jones to be sacked.
We can't go into pre season with Purse and Ramasut.
Another season of struggle looks on its way.

Would he have given up the chance of one final tournament with Wales, even as a squad member, to manage a league 1 side ? I'm not sure about that. For me, if he was even considered for the job, it was the wrong road for the club to go down..
Bellamy loves Ramsey, if he's fit he'll be in the Wapes squad

To be fair, if Ramsey is fit he'd deserve to be in it.

Well The City waited two seasons for him to be fit - and it never happened.

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread
No replies to this thread since yesterday afternoon. Has to be the most boring and drawn out manager search yet.
Are the club just hoping we forget about it?
Have the club forgotten? Is there any way to get in contact with any of the board to remind them?

the club have abandoned the old managerial model as it was too authoritarian and a remnant of a more hierarchical society that has historically undervalued and marginalised minority groups.
going forward the club will be a autonomous collective and not require any management.

Just get it done. Willing to give Murphy a chance if he's had good experience with young players.

That could explain the delay - he's had a lot of drives to do lately.

Perhaps the club's opted for him because he can get the potholes in the car park filled in his spare time.

Makes sense - if we can have a CEO who's also a luxury car salesman then why not.
