Suspended for?  How does that help matters?   Sack them if they are in breach of contract.

Pending an internal investigation. Only fair and the proper course to follow if there are allegations against them.

Sid and Shay to steady the ship. Makes sense.

Has Culverhouse been sacked? : magic 8 ball answers You may rely on it.

Magic 8 Ball
I asked the pigeon as it flew over my car. Crap on the bonnet and he is gone crap on the roof and he is not gone. The bonnet is clean and there is a distinct patch on the roof resembling bird shit.

Never doubt the mystic powers of Magic 8 Ball.

The karsa thing is funny as I don't recall any particularly negative things about him.

It was libellous to report it so had to be deleted.

Who is to say that Lambert backs them?

If they have been caught doing something pretty damn serious, then he cannot really disagree with the decision.

The only was he's hanging around is for £££ compo. He may walk claiming constructive dismissal . Who knows but I'd say he's gone at latest after the spurs game .

Sadly I think this means we're stuck with Lambert for now.

Yep, it's all over Twitter now, John Percy from the Telegraph and even Tom Ross. Surely Lambert won't be happy about that. He'll be next out the door, whether pushed or otherwise. 

Interesting isn't it? It depends entirely on whether Lambert changed his mind and backed Sid, agreed to this as a compromise, or is being completely undermined by the board. I guess we'll find out in due course.

Why do you say "changed his mind"?  Is it assumed that Delph and Gabby were dropped for their involvement in the possible training ground incident?

As an aside, if you were looking to get yourself out of villa you'd struggle to find better people to annoy that Sid, Gabby and Delph.  Regardless of what actually happened the vast majority will side with Sid et al.

Well my impression of the story was that Lambert backed his man at the time, hence Gabby and Delph not playing. It's hard to imagine them being unavailable if an attempt at conciliation and reconciliation had been made.

If that's the case then firstly he's nuts as our midfield without Delph is dire and secondly then it's game over for him.
