NickG Posted 17 January, 2014 Share Posted 17 January, 2014 I'm confused about what is going on, even if base info on one source - Daily Mail / Ashton. Seem almost contradictions sometimes with same story or is it me not understanding? KL will run the show Or KL will appoint chief exec to handle affairs Players openly threatening to walk away - openly? Who then? KL has been rejecting advances to sell Or KL's involvement raises fears she may sell NC's departure means players leaving starting with RL. Or NC was in talks with West Ham to sell RL but now cancelled due to his departure. RL wants to leave as he has a restricted first team role and fears lack of regular football threatens world cup place therefore move to West Ham. Or Facts = RL has played in every prem game for us this season. RL played 90 mins in more games than any other attacking player for us. Even at 31 RL has not only played in every prem game but started FA Cup. No other forward in prem can match this! West Ham have record signing just back from injury, given Cole new contract, signed Traore. Are not rated as highly by England Manager, play one up front - play more? Improve England chances? KL -promote fear of cashing in on players Or KL values Shaw at £30m and only sell for world record fee. NC tolerated KL and kept her at arms length Or KL owns club & NC's boss? KL has no experience of running club (but owned one for while and family owned it before that) Or NC great chairman (although no previous experience of running club) MP does know why NC left but can't say due to restricting contract. Or NC and MP very close with NC giving him contract. MP spoke to KL five minutes ago Or KL only spoke to MP for five minutes. Players asking to leave Or MP saying no players ask to leave. KL been too involved Or KL never goes to games / not interested / only spoken to MP once at party. MP met NC to discuss (alone?) MP in tears for meeting (already said MP won't talk about meeting??!) NC resigned. Or NC negotiating compensation Too confused to have my dream wrecked, can anyone assist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 17 January, 2014 Share Posted 17 January, 2014 Don't worry about what Neil Aston is saying. He is being asked what to write from this lot on behalf of Mr Cortese: http://square1consulting.co.uk/team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 17 January, 2014 Share Posted 17 January, 2014 it amazes me the quotes i see from saints fans on here / twitter / facebook panicing about what will happen, calling Katharina Liebherr all sorts of names as thir dear Cortese is no more, and basing it all on information they are reading in papers that has been fed to them by Cortese himself!

NickG Posted 17 January, 2014 Author Share Posted 17 January, 2014 Some of things he says are subjective, some clearly biased from an anti - KL dance. But surely he could see the complete break down in logic for some of those (eg NC selling RL/ NC leaving will trigger RL's departure {although NC was selling} and negotiations now stopping Or the one where the forward who plays more than any other forward in country is joining team who play one forward, already have 3 expensive ones to play more? Surely these defeat his aim and make things worse? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Don't worry Ottery, Katharina & her team will charm them and they'll either forget who NC was, or run some "why nasty Nic had to go.." stories.

Turkish Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 I never bought the Mail articles. They were quite clearly fed by the outgoing blokes PR company. Now he has crawled under his stone things have calmed down and we can move on. I seem to remember being shouted down when I was the lone voice who called (it turns out rightly) all the pro Cortese articles lazy articles from lying journalist scum bags. Now is seems the daily Fail (lol) is totally inaccurate and the journo is scum. it seems yet again Turks is bang on and the vocal majority are wrong.
