chrisp65 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I'm sorry, but if I went for an interview and the potential new boss had dark glasses, leather gloves, moustache AND his jumper tucked in his trousers.......it wouldn't be happening.

Electric Avenue Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I'm sorry, but if I went for an interview and the potential new boss had dark glasses, leather gloves, moustache AND his jumper tucked in his trousers.......it wouldn't be happening. Even if he's waving £2m a year in your face ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 A tucked-in jumper is a deal breaker for me too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) It does seem a bizarre move for OGS. Maybe he is being offered too much money to refuse? OK - A dodgy chairman - but reportedly £30m to spend in Jan - whilst they are in the relegation dogfight, the position is recoverable . The other reported overtures Everton\Villa\WBA have no where near that clout in the market... I've seen the reports too of a huge transfer kitty for Jan but it doesn't quite stack up with the fact Tan fell out with MM because he felt he didn't get enough value for money in the summer window. Hardly the actions of a chairman willing to throw a shed load of his wealth at his play thing. Edited January 2, 2014 by Tamuff_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Empty words from Tan on Mackay I think. He just wanted shot and was spouting rubbish about him. Cardiff have a couple of really good players. Another four £8m players into that squad and Ole will do well to get them relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islingtonclaret Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) I know it was a different time and circumstances will have been different, but I'm a little miffed that Cardiff City was good enough to turn OGS's head and Villa was not enough.

BOF Posted January 2, 2014 Moderator Share Posted January 2, 2014 So it seems Tan isn't keeping his cards close to his belt buckle.I know it was a different time and circumstances will have been different, but I'm a little miffed that Cardiff City was good enough to turn OGS's head and Villa was enough.Well that's just it. He's another year into his development. It's nothing to do with them being good enough and us not being good enough. Timing is everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I am interested to see how OGS gets on. He was a big gamble when we approached him and he still hasn't got a great deal of experience in management now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted January 2, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 2, 2014 Or it's come to Villa get rid of all the stars on big wages and you have to build a squad on a pittance! Cardiff however he might actually be able to spend on proper players and not have to worry about balancing books? Young manager first job in the Premier League I know where I would go if I was him, jumper tucked in Bond baddie or not as chairman! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheldonVilla Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Wasn't there something about the Owner/Bank roller of Molde threatening to pull out if he left? Will be interesting to see how he does. I've not watched any Norwegian football to know what the standard is, the only name I recognise is Rosenborg. That said, Molde finished 6th last term, 19 points off top. http://uk.soccerway.com/national/norway/eliteserien/2013/regular-season/r19871/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenm Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hopefully Cardiff will come in and take Lameberk off our hands. Then we could appoint a proper manager. Oooh yes please (nodding head emoticon) Really? This is how bad it's got around here? 11th in the table on a severely restricted budget and people are calling him names and want him out? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young manager first job in the Premier League I know where I would go if I was him, jumper tucked in Bond baddie or not as chairman! It's why I won't ask for Lambert out and will respect the job he is trying to do. He didn't take the easy option by coming to us, and has in fact put his career on the line by doing so. Yes we're a bigger club than Norwich, but he could have stayed there and waited for a better chance to progress his career to come along. I wish OGS all the best at Cardiff, he's going to need it with that owner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
