AVFCforever1991 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It all looked so promising last week, now it looks dark and gloomy as a villa fan... Ahh the ups and downs of being a villa fan.. Can't see lambert wanting to come to villa reall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villastine Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 But the likes of richard dunne need to be put in their places anyway True but I'm just saying Villa have become it would seem a bit more media friendly these days. Even the young players are groomed to give practice interviews with the club. To have a manager who appears to "hate the media" then I'm not sure he'd fit the profile. But then again I've always had my doubts because he supposedly models himself on MON and I'm not so sure Lerner & Co would like another re-run. Having said all that if Villa played next season - the type of football Norwich have played this season under him in the future then I don't think any of us would moan too much as long as we got some results to boot. MON is pretty much a media darling. I have never seen the similarities between Lambert and MON either in their personalities or management styles. Lambert actually reminds me of an Aberdeen-era Ferguson,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it won't happen but are we supposed to think that Villa are leaking this to the press? Just doesn't strike me as the way we've done things to date.

260582 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Ben @Beninho_10 RT this or favourite it to try and catch me out, but I guarantee that the news will be broken soon that Paul Lambert has resigned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islingtonclaret Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Right, to catch up on about 4 hours of madness- what is all this about Faulkner leaking information out? I will believe that Lambert has resigned when a local Norfolk journo puts something out. For now, no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Lambert will stay put IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwpzxjor1 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 It's odd that the club have allowed it to be released so easily to the press though. You really wouldn't thought they'd do this unless they believe they have an edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted May 30, 2012 Moderator Share Posted May 30, 2012 I might be missing something here but where have Aston Villa or Faulkner said anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwpzxjor1 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Villa have said nothing. It's gone straight to announcement from Sky Sources though. No mumblings on Twitter or other journo's. That, to me, suggests it's come from somewhere quite reliable who've gone straight to Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmarsha_926 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 If it is true about Lambert rolling contract expiring, the waiting then makes perfect sense. As he can speak to anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted May 30, 2012 Moderator Share Posted May 30, 2012 Or they've jumped to a fairly obvious 2+2 conclusion based on todays developments with Rodgers and Martinez... Who knows, I'm not sure we can conclude the club have released something to the press though as it seems totally at odds with the way they normally behave.

jonno_2004 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I might be missing something here but where have Aston Villa or Faulkner said anything? The only thing I've seen: Tom Ross @thegoalzone @VillaJay2011 @ste_healy villa have told me its 100% true Tom Ross Tom Ross @thegoalzone Villas number one target is Paul Lambert the Norwich manager.. Villa still have to go through interview etc Although I assume Pete Colley found out somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I might be missing something here but where have Aston Villa or Faulkner said anything? From what i can see, no. I seen the "Villa will approach PL in within the next 24 hours" on sky sports website, but i can't find anything backing that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
