briny_ear Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) I link this to the story that there is a delay in appointing a manager while they wait to learn how much money is available. maybe the word has come down from Lerner Towers saying I'm still sort of hoping this is a mis-story. It hasn't spread very far over the internet yet, basically a few sites quoting Matt Dickinson. Please let him be wrong!

Indeed, I'm hoping they've had a proper row over money and are pissed off and will be happy to let everyone know what it was all about to heap pressure on Lerner.

I'd think it's highly unlikely that Lerner was the one who would be pushing the good manager. why would the board resign because the club were hiring a strong candidate.

This Could Be Rotterdam Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 If they have resigned i take it there isnt a NDA? Could be the best thing for us as fans in terms of knowing what is actually going on within the club? Even though it most likely isnt what we want to hear! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danceoftheshamen Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 So there we have it! We now clearly can see that nothing will improve at Randy Villa FC until he sells up and in the meantime he has clearly washed his hands of the club and will simply take all the money he can get as a kind of 2 fingers up to it all....including the fans. It's a complete shambles this club and that's me done with it until that man has sold up. Shame as i was actually quite looking forward to a new challenge next season! I can't wait to hear the reasons behind it all but there can surely be only one!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam3773 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Thinking about it, reports before said Moyes wanted final say over all football aspects like transfers etc. Could it just be that Lerner wants Moyes in, but Moyes doesn't want to work with the new structure?

PieFacE Posted April 18, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Just an absolute shambles. My guess is that we're financially crippled, and they see no way out of it. Edited April 18, 2016 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted April 18, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2016 and now on the beeb http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36076936 "David Bernstein and Mervyn King have resigned from the Aston Villa board with immediate effect." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it's unlikely too, but wouldn't rule it out. It could be that the football board want a different candidate, hence why Moyes hasn't been contacted. Randy is throwing his weight around saying he wants Moyes, and these two have said "if you're interfering with our decision, which you said you wouldn't, then we're off" Pure wild speculation. It is more likely, like you say, to be the other way round. But given Moyes hasn't been contacted, and I'd imagine the Football Board were in charge of sussing out successors, it's not out of the question 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is off topic, but it's really unfair that this keeps getting brought up when Hollis didn't say it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Didn't people have fears of Hollis because of a history stripping companies of all assets for a sale or something similar? We are absolutely ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
