(From icNewcastle.co.uk) Dein tops Ashley's wish list Jun 3 2007, By Neil Farrington, The Sunday Sun 　　Newcastle's would-be new owner Mike Ashley has targeted his first big signing - former Arsenal vice-chairman David Dein. 　　Ashley, who is set to take full control of United, possibly this week, wants friend and neighbour Dein to run the club and deliver his dreams of glory. 　　Publicity-shy Ashley is loath to involve himself in day to day matters at St James's Park. 　　Instead, the billionaire wants to install a dynamic, experienced operator in the dual role of chairman/chief executive long performed by current Newcastle supremo Freddy Shepherd. 若新老板 Ashley 上任 他将会找前枪手副主席 Dein 担任球队的CEO 　　And Dein - the man who took Arsene Wenger to Arsenal in 1996 - fits the bill perfectly. 　　During 24 years with the Gunners, Dein forged a reputation as one of European football's key powerbrokers. 在枪手的24年，Dein证明了他在欧洲足坛的能力，并赢得荣誉 (这句不太会译 Orz) 　　As well as establishing Arsenal as a formidable force on the pitch, he became vice-chairman of the FA, before representing the Premier League on the FA board. 除了建立枪手成为一支强队，在英超成立前他也担任过足总的副主席。 　　Dein was pivotal in the FA's successful bid to land Sven-Goran Eriksson as England coach and was one of the panel who chose Steve McClaren as the Swede's successor. Dein也是当年力主请手机人担任三狮主帅，也是他提拔赛车人作为手机人的接班人。 　　He was also chairman of the G14 group of European super clubs until leaving Arsenal last month amid a row over his support for a proposed takeover of the club by American tycoon Stan Kroenke. 他也是前G14的主席，因为支持美国买家收购枪手被辞退而下台。（活该） 　　Dein and Ashley have homes literally yards apart in London's exclusive Totteridge Common, and know each other well. 话说Dein和Ashley住很近 XD 　　But it may need much persuasion for Dein to come on board at Newcastle, with the long-time Gunner harbouring long-term hopes of a return to Arsenal. 　　It is understood that Kroenke would look to reinstate Dein in an executive position if he goes on to win control of the London giants. 不过新老板要好好说服他啊，毕竟他一直想回去兵工厂。 而枪手的老板Kroenke有意请他回巢。 　　However, if Dein was to take charge of Newcastle, it would place a further question mark against the future of new United boss Sam Allardyce. 　　During his days at Bolton, Allardyce was fiercely critical of Dein's influence within football. 当然，Dein的入主最大影响当然是Big Sam的前途。 原因是Big Sam曾批评他对足球界的不良影响 (就是那个国际化阵容啊...= =") 　　And that raises the distant but tantalising prospect of Arsene Wenger - who was dismayed by long-time ally Dein's exit from Arsenal - being targeted for the manager's job at St James's Park. --
