Board Issues


Recommended Posts

King now out saying Gerrard never wanted to leave.

"Let’s be absolutely clear, Steven was not ready to go when he went."

"Steven wanted to defend the title and I’d extended his contract at his request."

"Steven was absolutely kicked out. I have no doubts about that."

“He did not want to leave at that point in time. He would have left, but not at that point in time. It wasn’t what he wanted to do."

No big loss anyway.

Kicked out, fuck off man :lol: 

One thing king saying he didn't want to leave but kicked out is definitely ripping the piss. Also not buying he didn't jump at the chance to head down to the Premiership. 

Didn't really buy into gerrard coming back. But if king gets back in definitely think he'll be aiming to bring him back.

Complete pish. :lol:

You can apply pressure on the board without talking utter nonsense. 

The only reason Gerrard got the Villa job is because Purslow is their chief exec. He bolted for that job, was never kicked out in a million years.

I’ve heard a few times that the Park’s effectively forced him out, but also that after 55 he was half arsing it and spending more and more time down south.

Truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

Given our start to that season you could tell gerrards heart wasn't in it, malmo, tannadice, 3 home draws to sheep, hearts and motherwell, and iirc we lost the opening goal 13 times or something stupid like that

His time was defo coming to an end, not even he would have stopped the tarriers run post xmas, and if he stayed we'd have been out the europa in the group stages and not a penalty shootout away from winning the thing

As annoyed as I am with how this is playing out in public I don't think King is wrong in what he says about this current board. 

It'll take us protesting etc to force the parks etc out if we really want a change tho. 

Thing is, king says we need another 50mill, then what? We spend that then 3 years down the line we are potentially back to square one with a wage bill we cant afford and no CL money

We just can't keep throwing money in without a plan, thats what got us here in the first place, when gerrard was hired it was "stop the ten" with absolutely no thought of what to do after it 

This is exactly the same thing

He's a pain in the prick.

Thankful for what he's done. But he's a fucking nightmare and a one man circus

Could've easily been silenced years ago by having him back on the board in place of a man who has zero shares yet alot of influence.
