This is poor batting IMO from Ayer. Why keep stoking this stuff and aggravate the situation including Suarez. I can't believe we can't just try and draw a line under this (taking Suarez's nature into account) and move on until at least January.

Getting really boring hearing this drivel from the suits at the club. Damaging the brand- they should start by looking at themselves and their management !

Quality is an unknown commodity to them, hence the focus on the “Brand"


You don't think Real, ManU, Inter, PSG, Chelsea execs talk that way???

It's corporate spiel... and "branding" is a mainstay in contemporary big business consciousness, particularly large American conglomerates that are buying up a number of British clubs.

I'm not convinced that semantics are a problem here... the same fans that criticise also want FSG to compete with the market. They all speak the same language....

I have no doubt FSG can compete on the semantics front Kop. Its in the transfer market they have their problems!
And not too bright on the Stadia front either!


They outspent Arsenal and ManU this summer....

Hi KP... but that's precisely the point. He should be wise enough to know the media will sieze upon his words and put their spin on it. Why couldn't he have said only positive things about Suarez... how he' committed, how he tried hard on Wednesday, He should've dead batted anything negative.

Fair enough... it was sloppy perhaps... but the media will find something to pick at regardless... then the more impressionable fans will follow.


possibly, but I don't think they would if you're clever and charming enough. If he's not then he shouldn't be talking to them. Get someone who's media savvy to talk to them.

I never liked Fergie's public persona but he'd tell every lie under the sun if it suited him or his club. You need to do that with the media. ayre tried it by trying to claim Sakho as a marquee signing.... so he should've tried by not being so open and honest about his thoughts on Suarez.
