The General C. Krulak Thread XV

[villasjf]

I think its tin hat time for you sir and Mr Lerner for the next few days, good luck.

General, the only way that you will be able to prevent speculation as to why MON has gone is to explain as much as you are able.
Has he jumped because he was told he can't buy any new players ?
Has he quit because we are selling the crown jewells - Milner and possibly Ashley Young ?
If he has been forced out, why did Randy not just sack him at the start of the summer rather than let us get into this very precarious situation, 5 days before the start of the season.
Who at the club is qualified to bring in the very best to replace MON ?

Your answers are eagerly anticipated General..thanks.

GK, you mentioned earlier that RL was over here dealing with transfers but another site has shown a picture of him leaving at an airport. He was on the tarmac next to his car with Paul Faulkner...does that mean that the business has all been sanctioned, both in and out of the club already and just needs finalising a few deals via Chief Exec or has he gone away on other business to return prior to the start of season this weekend ?

GK, ironic i posted this yesterday....did RL know that MON was leaving when he jumped on that plane on Sunday ?

I imagine that this is the most difficult time you've had since being at the club.

Whilst I'm not sad that we now have a chance to take the club onto the next level, the timing really leaves a lot to be desired.

I trust though, that Mr Lerner has somebody lined up who is capable of taking us to the next level.  A certain Dutchman at Ajax would do me.

Onwards and upwards!  All the best.

Hello General,

Never asked you a question before, but this is as good a time as any. Whilst I respect Randy's right to stay in the background, he needs to tell us what the hell is going on. Quickly.

General,

please can the club guarantee that we won't go for a 'cheap' option when appointing a new manager? Ie not bloody Curbishley. Ta.

General tough time obviously but as you can understand this is a worrying time for us.

Will Randy make a statement ? Has this been on the cards for a while?Is money a problem ?

This is not bad news...I always got the feeling O'Neill thought of himself as more important than Aston Villa which is why I think he got so much criticism.

Anyhow Martin Jol please General.

[Dave Cooper please]

General, will the pies be warm on Saturday?

if him leaving is due to ashley young being sold, then there will be a lot of very unhappy villa fans...
