    Why do yoy love Randy and what's he done for the club? A lot.
  2. GENTLEMAN
    Have you regretted your decision Gazton?
  3. GENTLEMAN
    I wonder if Gazton regrets his decision?
  4. GENTLEMAN
    Exactly. These are the responses : 1. Someone really good, i.e. Guus - 'There's no way he'll come, you're in la la land' 2. Someone unproven, i.e. someone doing good in the lower leages or someone from an OK foreign team - 'There's no way to know how he'll do in the Premier league' 3. Someone availabe, i.e. Clarke, possibly Mackay - 'He's rubbish', well duh... that's why he'd be available to a penny pinching Villa in the first place. It would be pointless to appoint somebody similar (or worse) to Lambert. I could not bear having to witness another rebuilding program and transitional period.

    I was reading the previous takeover threads in the Hall of Frame section, it seems the majority of posters were very happy at the thought of Ellis selling the club. It shows how far we have progress under RL.
  6. GENTLEMAN
    I'm not one of those who want Lambert gone right now, but as this question has been asked a million times I'll throw a name out there - Malky Mackay. That would be great progress....
  7. GENTLEMAN
    I read this on twitter. It looks like he is going out on loan in Jan.
  8. GENTLEMAN
    Edit.
  9. GENTLEMAN
    And I just want super competitive stability.
  10. GENTLEMAN
    Yes (depending on intentions).
  11. GENTLEMAN
    I have great doubts that he will mark his ten year anniversary with the club. The push towards sustainability gives him a better opportunity to sell the club to more potential bidders than normal. Or maybe RL will have another crack at making us successful in the future. Who knows??? It is all very vague and confusing with Lerner.
  12. GENTLEMAN
    I agree. It is disappointing because we are the biggest club in a huge city, and we are not matching our potential on the pitch I believe.
  13. GENTLEMAN
    How about Roberto Martinez?
  14. GENTLEMAN
    I think we will be waiting for one of the alienated players to leave before we sign a player; Alan Hutton and Shay Given are our most salable players in January. We will be waiting deep into window for a signing (if we do sign somebody in January). Frustrating, but I suspect Lambert being fully aware of these conditions.
  15. GENTLEMAN
    Going to Zenit last I heard. Disappointing if true.
  16. GENTLEMAN
    I agree with a lot of what you are saying, it has been really frustrating being a Villa supporter over the last few years. But I am just "hoping" we start spending more next summer to give ourselves a real chance at success again. All we can do is hope. I think it will be more a case of picking ourselves up and going again Same transfer policy with us just spending enough to stay in the division and gambling You would hope not.
  17. GENTLEMAN
    I think a poster mentioned about writing to Randy Lerner regarding his transfer policy in another thread. I am intrigued by the idea of writing a letter to Randy Lerner and challenging him constructively on his ownership and his vision for Aston Villa, it is far more positive than creating unfounded rumours and starting a hate campaign against RL. But I am fairly certain this has been done many times by other supporters, and I will probably not receive a reply for my efforts.
  18. GENTLEMAN
    Any more news heard on Ivelin Popov?
  19. GENTLEMAN
    I think that is malicious.
  20. GENTLEMAN
    I am not advocating relegation because it puts the club in serious danger and there are no guarantees that this could work out. But I think there will be less pressure and a better opportunity to build a winning team that plays attractive football in a lower division. Obviously it depends on competent people operating the club for it to succeed.
  21. GENTLEMAN
    I agree. I know this sounds crazy but I actually think relegation would help the club in terms of creating a better style of football and a winning mentality.
  22. GENTLEMAN
    Does anybody really believe we will get the creative/attacking midfielder we are lacking in January? I hate being negative but I feel it is going to be similar to the last winter window. I hope Jack Grealish and Samir Carruthers are both recalled in case we are unable to sign a creative/attacking player.
  23. GENTLEMAN
    I find it hard to believe that every football forum is like VT. VT is really a unique place.
  24. GENTLEMAN
    I am sure HH does not care about us jokingly speculating on his/her identity. HH has clearly been upset by the unfair criticism Paul Lambert has received recently. This is a discussion board. He obviously has as much right to post here as everybody else, but if he's going to do that, he has to expect that he's not going to agree with everything that's said. If people are expecting other posters not to disagree with a supposed ITKer in case they get upset and flounce off they're going to be disappointed. I agree with your sentiments about forum discussion, but you have to admit posters may be going a bit overboard regarding Paul Lambert.
