There is some psychological game going on here..Ron back soliloquising on the lost years and McL becomes the realisation of his potential when lost in the wilderness. Desperately trying to patch over the abyss that separates the two clubs and the wounded fans disappointment. It will all go well if we just sit back and imagine the last 30 years never happened.It is just a hearts and minds game now on Randy's part and the yanks are great at that..Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan..the Alamo."I love the smell of Napalm in the morning"
I have never said a detrimental word against Ron Saunders. He was always the one who got the bad deal that is all.Football is not about being nice other than when you win a lot of games.We have just undergone an enforced conversion where our noses have been rubbed in it and now we are expected to say all is lovely in the garden and everything smells of roses.I know what it smells like to me but then I hope it helps the roses grow.We are due a radical shift of attitude and outlook. I want it to be good but they are looking at it in a new way.Maybe it is Randy teaching all those anti-houllier miseries a lesson? It feels life a more fundamental shift myself.They made the decision and will live by it.They had better be right or there will be fireworks.I ain't been burned as heretic here.

What in the name of almighty McGrath are you on about?
I do not doubt they have injected money into the club and general facilities. It makes it a better place to go. Youth team has always produced the goods from way back before Randy's arrival.We are looking at a few years of dearth in the wilderness while he gets that investment back.Ashley Young is only the beginning of the exodus.I will deliberate when I see who we replace him and others who will undoubtedly go, with.Randy runs the whole kit and caboodle and we pay him for doing so. He better have some success or the Holte pub will be as forlorn a place when saturday comes round as it is on any given weekday evening.Randy is of the Puritan ethic and the Villa were always dashing Caviliers...I'm not sure what sort of plough he'll have us pulling next...but I can see the shires being groomed right now.
