It was a toss up which thread I put this in.  Another extraordinary set of alleged chaos.

If that's true that's an alarming article. If Garde doesn't want to be here he needs to go. I have sympathy, but we need someone who is commited to the future.

Oh, dear. What a mess. The only good thing appears to be that Mr Bernstein is sorting things out.

Most alarming thing was that he was told players didn't want to come but Reiley hasn't even asked them. Fucking joke

Did the scout emigrate to Australia without them realising?!

I'm speechless. How can a club in one of the best, if not wealthiest leagues in the world, be such a car crash behind the scenes. All that money and being run so unprofessionally. The only thing that's not surprising is that we have stunk the league out all season.

I don't blame Garde one bit for haggling over his off, he's been totally fucked over.

As for Reilly, Fox and Almstadt - what an absolute shambles.

This bit is almost beyond belief.

It is also alleged that Garde was told January targets did not want to move to Villa – only for Garde then to speak to the players directly and discover they had never been contacted.

I agree, but if as alleged he was lied to about players being asked if they wanted to come, I have every sympathy for him demanding every penny he's due before he does go.

Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans, that is incredible, just incredible.

What kind of detached moron is Lerner to have allowed this kind of clusterfuck to have developed.

I genuinely would never have guessed things were that bad

I have posted on here before. My friend is a scout for a PL club. He has never met a AV scout.

Staggering article.

Our inflated wage bill dosen't just include the players, all these jokers are getting a little slice of the pie aswell.

I think a big problem really is a lack of professionalism at the club and people wanting to fight and battle for this club, we don't see it on the pitch and looks like it's the same outside if we're just cutting corners and giving jobs out to unqualified people who aren't exactly dedicated to the requirements of the job.

Very very disappointing, let's hope Bernstein can get a hold of this and appoint some qualified football people over the summer.
