What did he say?
-
Saw something on sky sports news he was on about Benteke, basically saying no one bigger than club
-
when asked the question "will you be bringing in any experienced players"? PL just said "no, we'll be sticking with the same philosophy, players that want to play for this football club".
-
But vlaar and kea were at least reasonably experienced. Maybe he thinks they've not been great
I'd like to think he could show a bit of flexibility and sign a relatively experienced centre half. We did sail pretty close to the wind after all!
-
I thought Paul Lambert spoke honestly, impressively and intelligently. He clearly has strong views on the team over the individual and he clearly has no time for 'experienced' journeymen who's first question is 'how much will I be paid?'. The way he has gone this season with young, hungry and ambitious players is obviously the way he will continue to go, regardless of finances. I hesitate to say this, but he came across like a modern day Ron Saunders. Good to see Rambo still classes himself as one of us too. However, I'm not sure about his claim that the Holte End have never forgiven SGT for selling him. As someone who went home and away in '87-'88, at times I couldn't forgive Sir Graham for buying him!

Taping it at 12. Is it worth watching?

Yes I found it very interesting, but don't think by the comments on here that it was all about Villa - 90% of it was about the champions League final. All very good though, Jan Aage Fjortoft was also on with them.
It's nice to watch a chat show where the guests are given time to talk and tell their stories.
Good luck Dortmund on Saturday!
-
I am watching it at the moment.
McInally: "The Holte End hasn't forgiven Graham Taylor for selling me yet".
Hmmm.

Would you agree that Jan Aage felt that Howard Kendall's play-off preparations were a tad lacking in professionalism? I must admit that as someone who possibly holds the world record for reading football books, it would appear that 'H' enjoyed the odd tipple.

Fjortoft seems relatively well-informed and an entertaining enough personality, but I find his ludicrous hair (I appreciate continental Europeans often have weird barnets, but even so, his is out of order) and the enormous bags under his eyes very distracting.

Having missed the start of the show I was very much entertained by Jan. I spent about half an hour trying to guess who he was before there was a 'reveal' that spoilt my fun.

Cue the advertisements for Alan McInally sports forums at clubs around the Birmingham area.
-
I was in the Bicycle Kick stand a few years back and as I made my way to the bogs McInally appeared from some side door/suite. A Villa fan with a full pint in his hand asked "How are you Rambo?" Big 'Al took his pint, necked it and gave him the empty plastic cup back with the reply "I'm better now big man!". The bloke whose pint he swiped was delighted and gave me the impression he would cherish that empty cup for life.

Personally Sir Graham, I forgive you. Just over a million quid was decent money back then. Shame you spunked half of it on that Irish cripple from Manchester United. But in the bright side we did get the legendary Adrian Heath/Dean Spink forward partnership.
-
SGT or Rambo? SGT or Rambo? Hmmmm, sorry big man.
-
i enjoyed the show, I thought that Lambert came across well, and I liked what he said about his ideas for Villa, with a philosophy on buying younger palayers, who want to play for the shirt!

I'd expect him to, he's the lead presenter on the main football show over here and has a reputation similar to the one Gary Neville has in the UK. He is a bit odd looking though.

I was squashed up the front of that poxy pen at Swindon when we won promotion, as 10 year old, and the big man spotted me and came over, shook my hand and had a nice little chat with me.
Top fella.

Has anyone got a link for this? I would be forever in their debt :-) Assuming that this doesn't break any house rules of course

Damo,
I remember a lecturer of mine, an obsessive Everton fan telling me of a story he heard from Gareth Farrelly. Towards the end of Kendall's reign Farrelly was playing in a match at Goodison and ended up near the bench for a throw / free kick. He grabbed a bottle for a swig of water / sports drink and what he actually grabbed was much stronger than a Gatorade so he spat it all out like a toddler. He had taken a drink from Kendall's special bottle....
Allegedly, etc etc.
