"But he admitted he went along with it and he admitted he was glad when mon walked out. The final straw being the euro debacle in mon final season."

After reading that, it makes me wonder if MO'N was close to getting the sack. He realised this so he walked.

Well he got paid off so whether he walked or was pushed, it's fairly acedemic.

Yes, I suppose it is, but, by walking he was able to push blame on to Lerner, and, he hasn't got 'sacked' on his CV.

Sorry about the "bit of stuff" comment.   I should have said early twenties, raven haired, doe eyed, long legged, perfest skinned Eurasian woman.   Consider yourselves lucky I did not say "tart".

You wouldn't bat an eyelid if you heard it spoken but 'bit of stuff' seems like a strange phrase when you see it written down.

I always thought the Brummie version was "a bit of fluff"?

Business associate or not she was not best pleased at the amount of time he spent talking about the Villa to somebody in a restaurant.

Isn't Randy a regular in The Anglesey Arms when he's in town ? Or did I just dream that up ?

Great thread this full of hallucinatory tales. All we need now is to join it all up with an African man reversing his car in a hurry up Trinity road having just been told by Lambert that Randy has signed the club over to him FOC.

The concept of a man reversing up Trinity Road to acquire the club truly is surreal.   Almost as surreal as the clip of a woman in a Holland shirt falling over in the street as the transfer window closed.   We all took it as some kind of message from on high that Clarence Seedorf or Edgar Davids were about to join us but it was just a woman on an orange jumper falling over.
