SeanO Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Calm down, Lambert has been negotiating for 2 days with RL etc so I'm pretty sure they know what he's all about and that they understand his contract. I know it's just numbers but 800,000k is still 800,000k, if any of you are in business you will understand that you don't just hand over money if you don't have to. Remember once you spend any money then it can never be spent again so I don't blame RL for not just handing over some guilt money. If RL's lawyers are saying Villa don't have to pay a penny then why would he go against their advise? PL will be our new manager soon enough, compo or not.

Nice irony there! However, this time, if they **** up, it will take a heroic effort and will be a right royal **** up ...appropriate for a jubilee weekend? :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Lambert will quite often change tactics and team depending on who your next opponent is, now that may sound obvious but there will be players going from the starting line up to the bench in consecutive matches and they and you'll wonder why, just trust him that he's right, coz he almost always is! Holt only started 24 matches last season from memory and yet scored 17 goals, the point being, Lambert knows what to do, and when to do it, very much a manager in the Martin O Neil mould and he still calls him the gaffer when he talks about him, so you know what I'm saying!Funny how you talk about Lambert being very tactically astute (by the way I believe you) then go on to say he's in the Martin O'Neill mould. The fact that he's tactically astute is one of the things that separates him from MON. Some day you must just give up your blind prejudice about MON, young man Do the following figures help you? 6-6-6-9-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, perhaps the amount of weekday bevies Dunne, Collins & Warnock have down the Elephant & Castle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SikhInTrinity Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 I think the legal teams are going through this, the point is AVFC approached Norwich for permission, they refused but PL has a clause in his contract to say he can talk to another club, this is why he resigned. Then he started speaking to AVFC, as he's on a rolling contract they can't do a lot in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Agree but he is the future king once Charlie abdicates We will soon own not only Hollywood & The BoE but also all the blue blood in the commonwealth Villa - world domination by stealth. Maybe King Billy will introduce a new tax on all other PL clubs that has to go to the Villa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
