Did I imagine this or did somebody suggest that his departure from Villa was triggered by a disagreement over Lambert's future, namely he wanted to get rid and Lerner didn't?

I think Dave intimated that that was the case, or at least played a part.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the first chink in the eventual schism.

Meh, I'd say the McLeish and Houllier appointments were worse.

We're not talking about them.

I'm referring to the "first chink" idea. I don't think Paul Lambert's job status was their first dispute.

It may not have been their first disagreement but it was, I believe, their first genuine one.

At least his departure allowed you to stop sticking up for the board at every opportunity, huh?

You're up early.
