This will mean Ashton doesn't have to waste precious time spouting guff on Twentyman's wireless show, leaving him the maximum opportunity to sign the players Lee Johnson doesn't want, just before the transfer window "slams" shut.

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I have no doubt we will eventually get the CEO and Owner that many on OTIB so richly deserve . Rovers managed it quite easily so anything's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I’m sure it’s a spoof but if Mark Ashton reads it I’m sure he’ll take the key drivers and run them up the flagpole to see if Steve Lansdown salutes. Just wait until we get his next real press release. Look out for “options” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught quite a few I see . . . So effectively, Mark Ashton has become the replacement for Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes. 'Don't go chasing waterfalls, please still to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to' And there in shows the limits of our recruitment process. A lack of waterfalls. I wonder if Mark 'left wing' Ashton takes an alternative views on 'Scrubs' to that of the rest of the band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 MA should change his name to Captain Waffle.............. That statement says nothing at all - it’s all predictable hot air and bluff that we’ve heard plenty of times before. What we want to hear is not how hard their working but who’ve they signed............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 For any element of doubt, @CodeRed writes an MA speech every window. He’s becoming so good, OTIBers now think it’s real. I’m pissing myself at those that think it’s real. Sorry to spoil the fun, but I’ve run out if underpants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 2 hours ago, Taunton_BCFC said: Yep! In other words no new striker If they're not available, they're not available tbh... Nketiah isn't. Adams probably isn't, Gayle is both prohibitively expensive and injured- I'd be pulling out all the stops for Vydra, if he's available. Or Gray, though he would cost- check the transfer forum thread on him if you haven't already, for the mooted terms! Bowen of course an excellent choice but a) He's likely out of our price range and b) It's unclear whether he's even available. Marriott on loan could be good- but again is he available? I'm not sure on Wickham personally. Assombalonga would certainly be good, but I think he can be overrated in some aspects of his game, probably a decent fee etc- and he's not even fit right now. Not easy, is it? Far from easy in fact! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I read the Ashton message as "No business imminent" "New striker unlikely" "We're selling some players soon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
