You must be excited about the Next Generation.

Jim knows what he saw and he's pissed!
Why is Ashworth so highly rated?

Brighton value for money has been probably the best runned club in England during his spell as DoF. He also did a good job with English FA, which consequently resulted in England starting to reach the final stages of competitions, and starting to produce players with excellent techniques. In other words, he has a very good record.Why is Ashworth so highly rated?
INEOS ITK coming in clutch! (Potentially)Keep an eye on the hierarchy at a south London premier club in addition to Ashworth and Mitchell

A club that isn't Utd went for him.
Nah I think mostly his time at Brighton I guess?
We need a structure that puts scouts at the forefront and then we need to invest in such a network by poaching the best in the game. The decision on who buy should be made after narrowing down the list provided by scouts who would have looked at things like technique, attitude, temperament, physique etc so that we are assured that from a list of say four players they all meet the minimum parameters set out in the player specification.
There is no way a player like Antony should ever be high on any list for recruitment by United. Bring in scouts you can trust and when a manager suggests a player tell him no, our scouts say he won't make it in this league because he lacks A, B and C. The DOF is the responsible for making sure the scouts assessment is on point, he can seek a different opinion if he wants but that should be the basic way we do things.

I think some compensation will be paid to break it, why would a senior executive like him agree to such a prohibitive clause? Six months would be understandable but a year that's just bonkers.If we do go for Ashworth he has a non compete for 12 months. He won't officially work for us for a year but I guess can work in the backround
It protects the club, so he can't give away targets etc he will likely be put on gardening leaveI think some compensation will be paid to break it, why would a senior executive like him agree to such a prohibitive clause? Six months would be understandable but a year that's just bonkers.
Because all the deal signees were in Saudi embassy for the signingwhy would a senior executive like him agree to such a prohibitive clause?
Which is a false sense of security because even if he swears not to work officially for United he could conduct business unofficially and what would they do if they can't prove it? Six months I'd understand but to take someone out of the game for a year is not on in my view.It protects the club, so he can't give away targets etc he will likely be put on gardening leave
Then restraint of trade would come into it, which are generally not enforceable.It protects the club, so he can't give away targets etc he will likely be put on gardening leave
Read his username!It's spelled that way everywhere...

Nah, as we have been told for the last 12 months or more Uncle Jim is an old school brexiteer, so I’m sure therefore that the feck tonne was imperial.Jesus Christ.
Or, you know, maybe it was a little cold.
He’s just agreed to acquire 25% of a business for a metric feck-tonne of money, if any of you believe for one minute he’s not carried out extensive financial due diligence and knows exactly what is going on then you need to give your heads a wobble.
Erm...make it so?

How do they buy stuff then?Saudis don’t need money!
They invite people to their embassy and just ask nicely.How do they buy stuff then?
He was put on gardening leave when he left Brighton. He resigned in February and I think Newcastle agreed a fee to release him from GL in May, which last I saw Brighton were demanding about £5m for.
That's why I kind of struggle to see him doing it again.
Yeah the amateur hour is over, I wouldn't expect INEOS to go this hard and this openly if they weren't sure. Newcastle also look like they are targeting Brentford's DOF and wouldn't mind to see him go.Depends entirely on what is written in his contract. But part of me believes that there must be some knowledge on how to get him out of these rumours are persisting.
Who dis? Tier 2 on their sub.
Obviously that photo (or its accompanying claim) is ridiculous, but shouldn't we be well past the assumption that a billionaire splashing out on a new asset entails that he knows what he is doing?Jesus Christ.

The Athletic reported the 12 month non compete and referenced it in the most recent United pod with Anka and Whitwell. I imagine it'll be a hell of a lot more than 5 mill to break
Easy to get around, make him a sporting director at INEOS , done.The Athletic reported the 12 month non compete and referenced it in the most recent United pod with Anka and Whitwell. I imagine it'll be a hell of a lot more than 5 mill to break
