January Transfer Thread: Speculation, Lies, Absolute Cr*p and Bosman Rumours

[neo_Villan]

If we sack Lambert and appoint Onion Head then we deserve to get fucked, just like Southampton deserve to get fucked.

The difference being that Adkins looked like he was keeping Soton up and PL looks like he is taking us down. Unlike Adkins, PL would have no complaints if he was handed his P45 this very minute.

[OzVilla]

Surely Lerner knows any spending that he makes to keep us up will be more than paid back to him with the windfall we'll have for staying up.

Well you would think so wouldn't you, but as this is RL and his merry band of marketing bullshiters were talking about i'm not too optimistic on that score anymore.

[JUAN PABLO]

Hung out to dry?

Get Dunne, Vlaar and Bent in quick and we have players that can keep us up but would love a couple in . Lescott and Sissoko would keep us up.   I mean on their day , Bent , Ireland , Nzogbia, Gabby and Dunne should be good enough to keep you in the prem but those dys seem to have gone.

[Irish villain]

If Lerner things bringing in RDM to do the same job at villa is the answer then we really are screwed.

Indeed. Like re-arranging the deckchairs on the Titanic.

I cant see RL sacking him, we've been on bad runs before and he hasn't given anyone the bullet.

Everybody knows that Chelsea team wanted to run the show themselves and that he had damn all to do with it.

Then again, Randy was seduced by TSM's League Cup win so we shouldn't be surprised if he thinks RDM is the best manager going because he can boast a CL medal.....

Ah, but has RDM got a letter of recommendation from Sir Alex Ferguson?

Whoever the manager is, if this squad isn't strengthened we're done for.

[IanB]

Is that the famous IanB?

We are the famous, the famous IanB!

[IanB]

Of course there's money.

Good to have you back Ian, hope things are well with you.

Thanks, that's very kind, much better thanks.

[IanB]

If we wait till the last few days, we could be 6 points from safety, rock bottom of the league.

With our goal deifference that's effectively 7 points.

Welcome back Ian. I hope you are well and it's so good to see you posting again (JD).

Thanks JD!

If proving me wrong means we stay up I'd be delighted.

Can't believe they've just sacked Adkins. Utterly bizarre.

[Surrey Villain]

Can't believe they've just sacked Adkins. Utterly bizarre.

Their fans must be gutted.  They really supported him even before last Saturday's game and he's got four points in two games.  It must have been planned before then but winning here delayed the announcement and then drawing at Chelsea must have been the last straw and they had to make the announcement before the new manager took over before they sacked the old one!
