daggy_333 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I hope i'm wrong but I think some of you are hearing it in the most positive way just for something to cling to, was probably just an innocent slip of the tongue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clip on mullet Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 MMM, seems PL may have slipped up in that interview, when asked about buying players he said it would not be like last year, he then said the new people understand the situation, he then sounded shifty and turned the conversation to hide what he said. Have a listen and see if you read it like I do. Interesting. He does say the new people understand the situation. What new people? New owners Paul!

Sam3773 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I just can't hear it. I hear talk of getting transfers in being tough and how the new people (transfers in) will understand the situation. After that he says it would be different if there was something imminent. I admire the optimism, mind. I hope you're right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teneka_Khan Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Ohhh that's a slip - no way he is talking about players - he is talking about new owners - and that's not just wishful thinking (imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 'The new people understand the situation, wooo we saw people, that, like I said there's nothing there, there's not imminent there' He says 'the' new people and then we saw people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I think it's funny how he says it and then roughly a second or two after he said it, he starts the sentence again. That's not a particularly normal way to correct yourself. It's almost like he's got a speech in his head and as he goes through it he doesn't acknowledge the fault until he's processed it himself. Not that I think this is too strange, it could be the way he handles speaking in front of the media. But people have noticed lately he's been "down" sounding, this may be because he's being told what to say for the cameras/microphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) I thought he said "but now people understand the situation" Edit: Nope you're right, he does say the new people understand the situation, doesn't he?

dudevillaisnice Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's definitely "new people understand the situation" He also quickly tried to change it himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever happened to ..... Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I think we will know by June 14th. I am definitely NITK but the way Lambert reacted I think he thinks it will be sorted in a couple of weeks and is probably being a little bit optimistic so I reckon June 14th, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pembers Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 When the journalist asks 'can you confirm lerner said to you that a sale is not imminent' (not exactly that wording but something like that), Lambert clearly dodges the question, he goes off topic and starts talking about other things, doesn't give a 'yes' or a 'no' at any point in his answer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) It's definitely "new people understand the situation" He also quickly tried to change it himself. Followed by, "we saw people that.." I wonder if he means players that they've looked at, or if he means "we" as in me and Faulkner on our trip to New York saw these new guys that understand the situation.

Popular Post Ginko Posted May 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 20, 2014 I just transcribed that part of the interview and I think this is pretty accurate but feel free to challenge me on this: Pat Murphy: So you hopefully would wheel and deal as you did last summer, then? You hope to do it the same way in the transfer market as you did last summer? Paul Lambert: No, as I said before, the club needs bigger and better players. There’s no two ways about it – PM: But you’re not going to get that are you? PL: You have to go and try, somewhere along, you have to go and try… and work really hard to try and do it. That’s what I intend to do. PM: If you haven’t got too much money from Randy Lerner, how are you going to do that, Paul? PL: You have to try, you have to make it work somewhere along the line. You have to really focus and try and do everything you can to do it. As I said, it’s a challenge. The new people understand the situation and maybe saw people that… as I said, there’s nothing imminent there. If there was something imminent there then, then it’s a bit different… but there’s nothing there. I'm inclined to believe it was a bit of a slip up and some fast back-peddling to be honest. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam3773 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) If it is a slip, I love the idea that it was on purpose. Like a big FU to Randy for not giving him any money. Edit: Typo. Edited May 20, 2014 by Sam3773 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
