We were having the worst start in Premier League history. It's hardly surprising that the manager offered his resignation. Not really buying this £4m stuff.

Ye the team he madeFFS it wasnt JUST him.
Did I miss something and it was 11 CWs on the pitch every week?
Or maybe he did all the scouting, recruitment and sorted out the wages and coaching?
He's entitled for some pay off. But to suggest it was HIM that got is to the PL is doing a disrespect to everyone else who helped get us there. It was a team effort.
I agree to a point regards PA. The mud slinging and allegations of a money grab should not be a matter of public record and to me comes off as petty point scoring for no tangible benefit.I have no Dog in the fight, I’m not a Wikderism cultist who believed he could do no wrong and never be sacked, but I thought he should get at least three months next season to turn things around, there is no question he got things badly wrong this season, but should get some leeway based on his record the previous 5 years.
Having got that out of the way I will say that HRH actually comes off very well in that video, he sounds sensible and rational unlike some other owners I could mention nearby, (of course we have yet to hear CWs side of this)
Also talking a good game is only one side of the coin for The Prince, he has to back that up over the coming seasons with his actions at the club, making the correct appointment, supporting the new manager, improving the training facilities / Academy and the biggest threat of all keeping us at the Lane Once McCabe occupies the corners of the site.
He also made this season's squad so we're going to miss out on a few hundred million because of that so it sort of balances itself out.Ye the team he made
You don’t have to stay silent to slander. The NDA normally has clauses for both sides. If he’s signed one which allows the club to rip him to bits (which this interview doesn’t do incidentally), he must have got paid a lot more than he was entitled to. I just can’t see it and I don’t think it would be legal to slanderous lies.I'm no legal eagle, but if CW has signed an NDA does this mean he can't respond in kind ?
It doesn't rip him to bits, but it's clearly one version of events. Which I'm not inclined to doubt btw.You don’t have to stay silent to slander. The NDA normally has clauses for both sides.

I think the Prince maybe is a little naive when it comes to the wage structure and what’s required based on what he’s said.
I’d say his annoyance is more around it being used as an excuse for poor performance while some players are well paid, but I think he needs to look at what the clubs pay around us.

Yup, but in fairness we’ve been getting the otherside dripping through the press for months.It doesn't rip him to bits, but it's clearly one version of events. Which I'm not inclined to doubt btw.
Looks like he declined to comment. So could have spoke about it if he wanted to.They have made him sign an agreement to not speak and then come out and slaughtered him!
This is meant to be a PL football club
no doubt we aren’t paying competitive salaries.
that said the return from
Robinson
Freeman
Mousset
Brewster
Mcburnie
have all been negligible. Do we make any of those again in hindsight
even ramsdale to to be fair to him has shown character and started to play well - you’d argue 20m is ALOT.
berge has done ok but again for 22m - you’d want to have seen more from him.
I don’t think the recruitment has really been good enough by any stretch, so slagging the board off at every opportunity when he’s had 120m - was never going to go down well. And probably neither was refusing to take any direction on recruitment (albeit I admit wilders record probably affords him that right).
I think Chris will speak out at some point. But I think it will be a while yet. He'll wait for the dust to settle.
He can't be a dick to an owner who doesn't do exactly what he wants. His press conference digs this year will have effected his employability. Rich people don't like their employees publicly complainingI think Chris will speak out at some point. But I think it will be a while yet. He'll wait for the dust to settle.
Let’s be fair. While Chris says very little directly, his version of events tends to get out via his mates and contacts.I think Chris will speak out at some point. But I think it will be a while yet. He'll wait for the dust to settle.
