dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 If he's speaking because Garde has asked him to speak (as the article implies) then it's not going to be anything interesting. Remi Garde implies that he's asked them to speak up but they've ignored him. I very much doubt that is an "official" statement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Hopefully there'll be a new five year plan. I love those, the last one worked out so well. Edited January 11, 2016 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 'Aston Villa, London, England: I have been made aware that I still own a soccer franchise. I was sure I'd asked someone to sell this for me, the future is all about women's five a side cricket and I need to be in at the start on that one to use my sports management knowledge to turn it in to something special. Anyways, what with the move to the Olympic Stadium I don't see there being a problem selling this baby to some naive foreign type. I must say, when I bought it I was unaware exactly how far away from the nearest tube station it was. The new manager, Rennie? Remploy? Reggie? he's doing a fine job and will be backed up in the 5 year plan window, whatever that means. Is British Soccer League one of those leagues where they have relegation? Or are we ok to just plod on? Up the Browns. Is it brunch yet? Any more questions, phone Nicky Keyes. I'll be honest, I've lost the password to the laptop, much happening?' 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, really trying to sell it & as for small time, have we ever been smaller ? Cringworthy, Somone falling over at a wedding is cringeworthy, I think we passed cringworthy in September as we were overtaken by "It can't actually get any worse, oh it is FFS". The Lion is all we have left FFS, that's it nothing else. No matter what has happended to us the Lion on the shirt should be enough for these players but it aint.

Our Lion appears to be a relative of that Cecil lion that got shot by a yank with shit ass excuses. "I didn't know THAT was Cecil, I thought it was the other one, my bad!"

Probably not... but maybe... I don't agree. He's never been vocal in the media. When we were 6th and made a genuine push for the CL, he wasn't vocal then. It's not a case of being quiet now the going has got tough. I don't think not speaking to the media enough really warrants people wishing he was dead.

The Fun Factory Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Unless Lerner is going to say he has found a buyer, or he will put in proper investment and have correctly qualified people in the right places at board level, it it is going to just be another piece of pointless PR flim-flam. Boy the Clevleland Browns were spot on on Lerner. Couldn't run a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted January 11, 2016 Moderator Share Posted January 11, 2016 Given the reactions here, I'm not sure a statement is a good idea. Still, for this thread at least, hearing "the b****rd will just cobble together a lot of words that mean nothing, I hate him" is a nice change from "the b****rd never speaks to us, I hate him." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
