Neil Ashton - Daily Fail - Villas-Boas faces a fight to keep his job as Spurs boss

[IanC]

The Daily Fail at it's best yet again. At least I get a laugh reading some of the shite they write. Even the Sunday Spurt were closer with some of their reporting than the Daily Fail.

 

[beats1]

AVB's right the players should be fucking ashamed, they looked like they stopped caring after half time

 

[danielneeds]

or a Prince amongst men when he agrees with your pov

I'm neither here nor there regarding AVB at the moment. But Ashton is a smug prick, especially on Sunday Supplement.

 

[Spurs_Bear]

That is a truly awful article though, you cant argue with negative shite if it's at least researched and has the potential to be about 10% accurate. That however, written by Ashton (?), is unadulterated bullshit.

It's the level of evidence in that article that has me convinced.

I like Dawson, he seems like a good lad, but I really want Jan to be our captain. He seems very well grounded and is our best defender. I pray to god Barca of Madrid don't nab him when they go hunting for defenders which they will.

One of the papers yesterday said Capoue had been a flop (yes a man who picked up a serious injury in his third game) says all need to know about the quality of tabloid journalism in this country

 

[lillywhites61]

The players, coaches and AVB should all be ashamed by that performance! So if some players are not happy with what was said I couldn't give a shit, they obviously don't!

However this is going by what it says in this article anyway?!

 

[Luka Van der Bale]

'This was the season they were meant to keep City, United, Arsenal and the rest within reach. Instead, they are ninth in the Premier League, eight points behind their north London rivals.'

Yep, United are a whole point out of reach... City a massive 2...

 

[onthetwo]

is this what the Paddy Barclay 'nay-sayers' had in mind when they said they wanted more cutting edge journalism?

haha that actually cracked me up

Agree that the article is bullshit, but it's bullshit like this that heaps a lot more pressure onto AVB and the chances are that it's just going to snowball.

I have read some absurd and ridiculous in the past but this is up there with the best of them

And I've seen some pretty absurd management on football, but way we are being coached at the moment is up there with the best of them.

No, It was "did immigrant AVB Kill princess Diana"

You forgot to mention how AVB brought house prices down whilst also claiming benefits for 16 illegal Afghan children.

 

[Francis Gibbs]

Jackanory.

I wouldn't be so sure

 

[FinnYid]

I reckon we see in next two games wether AVB will be here in january/february. If the gameplan hasn't evolved a bit and he remains unable to correct his own mistakes, there is little to no chance of him being at the helm at the end of the season. With no switch in gameplan it would be miracle if he would survive till february.

Then again he might finally react and it might be totally different. But he has to show willingnes to do it now, not next year.

 

[jerseyspur]

I've never read Ashton write a positive piece about AVB

I'm sure his vendeta towards him came about after AVB owned him in a press conference last year in front of all his media buddies?!

Can anyone recall what that was in regards to?! (& if it was actually Ashton?)

And here we have the snowball effect I mentioned earlier in this thread
