JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Definitely more to this than meets the eye, Hollis does not come across as the type of bloke that enjoys/tolerates such unprofessional/embarassing looking bollox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 From the OS: Quote “The chairman, Steve Hollis, is currently engaged in extensive negotiations in relation to the sale of the club. "Extensive negotiations" sounds like there's a potential buyer lined up...Please God be true 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Honestly I would be happy to get a fake dummy of Lerner and set it on fire just to show that is what he is doing to this club. hes actually worse than Carson yeung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 It can and will get worse, I've got no doubt about that at all. Who in their right mind, manager or player will want to touch Villa with a barge pole. I fear we'll end up with a budget made up of whatever we can sell and Eric Black in charge in our first game. Its a sad day, that follows many other sad days and precedes many mor sad days. RIP Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'm not so sure that the board were keen on Moyes. I can't remember the exact wording but it appeared as if they were looking for somebody with recent and extensive Championship experience which Moyes doesn't have. There was also that story recently about Pearson being lined up along with Chris Powell. Perhaps we were going to go for them and but Lerner pulled the plug when Moyes declared his interest? Probably isn't the case but nothing's really that clear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably isn't the case but nothing's really that clear. It's plausible, the timing of the resignations and the leak of the Moyes story were pretty close. I sense whatever happened, there has been some real moving of the goalposts from Randy and these are serious guys who won't take any shit like that.

maqroll Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 i never thought I'd long for the David O'Leary days. Jesus Christ, we've become a total joke. We are a laughing stock of a club now, and we'll have the whole division looking to scalp us next year. It won't be easy, especially if the money is cut off even more. Given our current state, I'd be SURPRISED if we didn't get relegated next season again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with 'false narrative' and 'stick to beat him with' these are some of my disliked phrases over the last few years along side 'pop up','craft beer','artisan' and 'street food' Unfortunately smokes and mirrors is exactly what it appears at the moment.
