  1. I think Lambert is a fine manager, and I would support him and I think he would be a good appointment. But I have this feeling that Lerner is after AVB, even with his demands, because although there are strong demands, i think they align nicely with what I believe the board wants: longevity, a top to bottom plan, exciting football, commitment.

    I think, with these types of demands come a lot of negotiation on both sides. I think that OGS as a plan B could be considered an AVB Light option, without the higher demands, but similar philosophies and commitments, and they got "caught" a bit in talking to him. I think Martinez was perhaps plan C, but Lerner was not happy to wait for Liverpool.

    I hope that perhaps he has gotten far enough down the road with AVB, and AVBs options are sufficiently off the table, that we are close to signing him and would prefer to wait and see (like you did to us RM) and that's the message we sent to Martinez, who was put under the gun by Whelan to commit or move on.

    Anyway, I hope that is the case. If AVB is indeed demanding those kinds of commitments, I am sure that we would make some demands in turn to protect us.

    I hope you're right - I would love AVB

  2. My dad is saying something is going to happen tonight with Martinez. All we can do is wait and see.

    I hope your dad is right because I think that Martinez would be great for Villa. However, I have the feeling that your dad is pulling your plonker.

    Tbh I don't even believe him - but i'll pass on the information from his "source" nonetheless.

    You don't believe your own Dad. :P

    He's tricked me before about things! He seemed more serious about this one though. Using the old line:

    'well believe what you want'

    When i questioned him about the reliability of it all

  3. Okay - got some info here from Dad - I don't know how reliable it is but whatever. I am not ITK, and I doubt my dad is ITK

    Well my Dad says he was speaking to a former player who works at VP today and that "source" said:

    - We offered OGS the job and he declined it

    - We have interviewed Rogers (however he is now likely going to liverpool)

    - We are currently in talks with Martinez and he was at Villa Park today (according to the 'source')

    - The 3rd mystery Candidate is Capello.

  4. Renewing tonight - Dad's being lazy :3

    We had a debate last night about Martinez and he said he wasn't going to renew if Martinez got the job xD (jokingly i believe - but he was pretending to be serious). He then went on to slate OGS :'(

    He is persistent he wants Capello xD

  5. "Eager Lerner hopes to resolve the saga on Wednesday, after being informed by Martinez’s representatives that he will consider the job."

    Word on the street is Martinez - tomorrow being the day :o!

    What streets this? Reason why Martinez is coming away in the betting tonight is because he hasnt got the lpool job and bookies are running to cover themselves that he now has free run at villa job. I personally think he will stay at Wigan. Why would he not even talk to us last year and take the job this year?
