coda Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 When he resurfaced at that American university someone posted his commencement speech video on here. He came out with the "Proud History, Bright Future" platitude. That summed up the whole Lerner saga for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have a football legend, a banker and a marine on board now. What next a future king? Who's the Marine ? Oh a banker,sorry I misread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute cockwomble From when McLeish was appointed ASTON VILLA director Charles Krulak has told the club’s fans to butt out of the appointment of a new manager. The American reacted to the flood of anti-Alex McLeish messages to the club. Krulak said: “The uproar over McLeish is uncalled for. “He has proved he can manage in the big leagues — just imagine what he could do if he was with an owner who supported him.” In a message to Villa fans, he said: “You cling to the fact he’s seen his lads relegated twice. Well, the first time he was not with the club long enough to make a difference. Secondly, look at the owners he’s worked for and support of him monetarily. “Then look at our owner Randy Lerner and what he provides to his managers. “Ask Alex Ferguson about the man. We need to do what is right for the club.” http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3638034/Charles-Krulak-tells-Aston-Villa-fans-to-butt-out-of-their-hunt-for-a-new-manager.html Wow, how embarrassing is this. "just imagine what he could do if he was with an owner who supported him" There's so many levels to this irony. Why isn't this a VT meme yet?

sne Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 The internet age is really not Krulaks friend. Had this been 30 years ago he might have been able to come back and all his stupid statements and would have all been almost forgotten, or at least hard to find. Now all you need is a quick search and you instantly find gems like the above one and countless others. He put his foot so far down his mouth that it's a miracle he dares to show himself this side of the Atlantic. Not sure if he's stupid, arrogant or totally removed from reality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 He's a knob jockey, just a mate of Lerner's. An because he was in the army the American thinks he owes him something. Should be know where near our board. The guys we have now should see straight through him, an I bet they are wondering what the hell he is doing.

DeadlyDirk Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 He is a knob jockey of the highest order, but who can forget his goading of Birmingham with his "Pig in the mud" jibe? I quite enjoyed that... Even more so as I think it was just before the 5-1 victory.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Just Lerners eyes and ears… Will contribute the square route of **** all apart from being an interfering clueless word removed who likes the sound of his own voice. Seriously how can you have respect for a shit bag like this who thinks himself and his ideas won a war. Truthfully i wouldn't trust this whopper with the remote control to the telly box let alone on a board of directors.

DeadlyDirk Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Interesting, I'm doing a degree in IT part time with OU and through some text I was reading earlier it referenced Gen Charles C. Krulak as the individual who had a vision of using video gaming engines to create a combat simulator to put Marines in to situations for training. They used the Doom engine to begin with....

Demitri_C Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Maybe we should invite him for a Q and A session on here just so he can pass the message back to his "buddy" I would respect Krulak more if he attended games but he doesnt either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Richard Posted April 5, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2016 A thoroughly dislikable and nasty individual who adds nothing other than his own over inflated sense of self importance. A total embarrassment that he is back involved but sums up Lerner . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
