  1. It can be hard to get some away tickets, you have to get a good booking history. Kinda catch 22 situation. For the odd one game your best looking in the game threads on here when the tickets go on sale, a lot of people who cant go to certain away games would be happy to help out fellow fans by letting them use there booking numbers, or selling there tickets etc.

    Good luck!

  2. Who cares about West Hams kit, they wear a non striped claret and blue kit - its always going to be similar to ours regardless guys - get over it!

    Onto the real subject... £50!!! jeez.

  3. If RL had wanted OGS, then he could have got him. OGS really wanted the job but then indecision by RL/PF allowed Molde to put pressure on Ole to remain with them. Rokke was acting while Villa was not.

    It reminds me of last year when we made a polite approach to Roberto Martinez, but only offered him the same chance as OGS to go on our mythical shortlist. Dave Whelan was then given time to bully RM into staying at Wigan. I thought that Randy would have learnt a valuable lesson from that shafting by a sharp loudmouthed operater like DW, but it appears that another big mouthed financier has triumped over the "gentleman" at Villa.

    I hope I'm wrong and that the real reason that OGS was not offered the job is because Randy has someone better lined up (scratches head ?), but I worry that once again we may have shot ourselves in the foot by the same old indecision and dithering that has tended to be the hallmark of Randy's ownership.

    Totally agree.

    The only other thing I can add, is that maybe when he came over for the chat it was actually PF and RL who were unimpressed with OGS - hence the lack of a speedy offer?

    Then they panicked and rang Mick McCarthy.

  4. I dunno guys, you gotta think his ultimate goal is MUFC job, he would not be able to walk into that straight from Molde, would deffo need some PL experience. I honestly think his plan was to show his worth with us before taking over from Fergie in 2 or 3 years. I think the backers of Molde have told him they will be off if he leaves, which would destroy the club. Along with this a nice payrise was offered and he has had to stay.

    Family reasons my arse, if that was the case he wouldn't have even come over for a `chat'. What did he think, that he could manage the team from Norway?

  5. Gotta wonder, what are we not doing to 1000% convince these people to take the job? I know we didn't actually offer it RM or OGS, but why are these people not dying to jump into our club? I dont think PF or RL are doing a very good job of selling it to them when they initially speak.

    Seems OGS has been talked out of it now by Molde, clearly we didn't push it enough from our side or nothing would have talked him out of it.

  6. Latest info is that Mr Lerner is NOT going to Norway.

    All indicators are that there will be a press conference at VP tomorrow to unveil the new manager.

    This information makes me more confident that our bets will come in, not less.

    So how do you know he is not going now mate? Id be happy with OGS, Paul Lambert, Roberto, my auntie, anyone will do a better job than that last clown.

  7. Why not Kenny and Steve Clarke to us.

    It would be something that Lerner would contemplate.

    Not after Houllier it wouldn't.

    Kenny doesn't have a dodgy ticker.

    Was bad enough on that cold cold Monday night at Klanfield with GH infront of the kop, couldn't be doing with putting up with Kenny as our manager cumming infront of them. No thanks.

  8. Not wishing to have a ruck with you guys but there's confusion over the bigger club debate.

    Yes, you're a bigger club, to argue you're not is silly, but better?

    That will influence Lambert in his choice.

    C'mon mate, you've had a good season.. but thats it. We have had a bad couple of seasons, due to our poor choice in manager - who is now gone. Apart from the last 2 seasons we were up there in the top 8 consistently, even spoke of as top 4 contenders on a regular basis.

    Obviously we are both going to be looking at this through claret and blue or yellow and green tinted glasses. Ask a neutral who is the bigger or better club..

  9. Surely cant be MM, after the `young and vibrant' comment in the statement. Was going to ask for MYSTERYMAN to give us his opinion.. but I think his stock went downhill after he told us it wont be McLeish and is Moyes last time.. grrr..

    The word 'young' was not mentioned in the statement

    Where have I read that then? either way - mad mick doesn't fit either of them 2 words.. haha
