I don't buy it neo.


The money required is not massive, so either Lambert's targets ended up not moving/ staying/ going elsewhere, or he has changed his tack on them.

In that case, where was a backup plan ?

I liked the comparison of the meeting with Father Ted and the bomb.

I think it will be more like the scene from Waterboy in which Henry Winkler visits the home of Bobby Boucher, the waterboy of the Louisiana Mud Dogs to sign him as defensive blocker.   Momma Boucher says her son is never going to be allowed to play that "Fuzeball" so shut up and eat your snake sandwich.

Lambert has probably got one of those lads who were handing out the flags last Tuesday lined up to play fuzeball.

Then you look for new targets. No manager operates expecting to get every single one of their targets. Thus they have 2nd/3rd choice targets on their radar.

Paul will say "Gee whizz Randolph, apart from a couple of bad results, everythin's just going' reeeeeeeal swell sir".  This will be enough and he'll fuck off back to Ohio or wherever until the summer, just in time to see them raising the npower Championship flags above the Witton Lane Stand.

Pair of incompetent ******.

Stay tuned for another episode in everyone's favourite disaster movie. It looks to me as if PL has been well and truly shafted here. Lerner needs to come out and show his hand, the tnuc.

Costs a fortune to phone the US and we haven't paid our internet bill for the last six months.

Is there any truth in this meeting talk , where did radio wm get it from ?
If true i suspect randy will take his chopper to lambert should we lose on tues.
There's a good chance that he will come over but it is probably WM just having a punt. If he doesn't show up it will be 'Lerner cancels plans to meet Lambert for showdown talks'.
You would think that local radio would not try to play the tricks of the big newspapers and would just report facts. I have no doubt that the whole thing is fabricated.

get a fucking phone card. It's costs me 6 cents a minute to the UK, and 10 cents to India. Mind you the bastards bill by the minute so they should really map out their conversation.

Should this be true it'll be a namby-pamby 'support' meeting. There will be no sacking, it's not Lerners style.
