Culverhouse and Karsa suspended (Now both sacked: Reply #876)

[murfee]

What's TBAR?

Ask Eastie

F*cking hell, I don't mind "ITK's" and don't knock them all as attention seekers like some people seem to.  But this 'Admin' fella on TBAR has as his avatar a picture of God (morgan freeman in Bruce almighty).  Would it be possible to be any more up your own arse?

All seeing Admin.  Apparently Admin does not engage in chat nor does Admin respond to post.  Twat.

Maybe but it does seem that TBAR is the place to go for breaking news.

It does seem that way, Dave used to get to know things but he must be out in the cold.

Obviously. And yet so many of them on there spend so much of their time talking about him. Strange indeed are the ways of the world.

Where are they doing that? Are you just upset because after all your sucking up to your mate Paul he left you in the dark? Have you tried phoning him? I believe you told everyone you had his number and could call him any time?

Why post on here then?? Just to stir shit up?

Aren't Lambert and Gary Karsa related in some way?

Brother in Law

So are we to assume Lambert went into the Fulham game without Gabby and Delph by choice ..FFS.Talk about shooting yourself in the foot..

Noticed Luna tweeted nice day in Birmingham soon after the news came out , could be nothing but had herd he took alot of abuse from the side lines from Culverhouse.

Well if he did that he is a fucking idiot. He may not have like dissent but close enough to the end of the season to deal with it then.

Lambert's gone.

I suspect that based on 4 years of failures the board may try a proper DoF / coach combo come next month.

Something has turned with Gabby in the last couple of months too. Obviously his erratic form is one thing we're all used to. But the effort hasn't quite been there either in recent games. Whether that's because he's been growing frustrated with the coaching, who knows? He looks a frustrated player at the moment.
Delph was also poor against Palace, possibly as poor as he's been this season for us. Given how clueless we looked going forward, it's no wonder he cut a frustrated figure during the game.

Agree completely on Gabby. As the senior player with over 300 appearances, he should've stepped up, taken responsibilty and lead by example, but he's done  nothing near. We all know the coaching has been suspect throughout this season and maybe now Sid will make the differecne. Sid's back! Yaaaaaaayyyyyyy!!

News just in.  John Carew being bought in as 'Relaxation Therapy' Coach whatever that is.

I've been painting doors (not a euphemism) all day, so had missed all this.

Have just worked through the 19 pages. A very amusing read at times.

Obviously, Lambert referring to "things going on behind the scenes" the other day was talking about this, and it is hard to see how he could still be here if his coaching team had just been binned without agreement, so he must be on-board with the decision.

A couple of things I don't  understand, though.

One is why, if it is true that Gabby and Delph were dropped for Fulham after standing up for Sid, did Lambert agree with that move being made, only to now support them getting the tin tack a week and a bit later?

The other is, if the problem is the way Karsa and Culverhouse treat other staff, how often does Lambert actually go to training for him not to have noticed and done something about this before?

I don't know what to think about this. On the one side, I am happy that something might now change. On the other, I find myself thinking what kind of an utter shambles must the club be at the moment to have to do something like this, whilst in this threatened position?

Oh, and Shay Given goes from being in the Bomb Squad to being on the coaching staff in one day. How nuts is that?

I don't get it, if you're all so amazingly happy over there, how come you spend half your time bleating on about this place and the other half here, telling us how happy you are over there?

I don't understand, if you've found somewhere you prefer to be, why don't you just go and be there, and get on with doing whatever it is that you want to do rather than coming back here and acting like a total arse?

Just catching up on all this. Some random observations.

182 members on TBAR.

Not into Twitter, know someone who relies on Twitter as their sole source of news.

Does Twitter based journalism include research, is it plagiarism dressed up as research or combination of the 2?

I'm seriously trying to decide if I'm missing out on something.

Tw*tter rumours are 99.99% made-up b*ll*cks.

I can now say, without being disloyal, that I fucking hate Ian Culverhouse. What a loathsome shithouse.

Where? Plenty of derogatory remarks on that forum from ex-councillors masquerading as failed Roman Emperors.

Also, see that IC on his training top there:



Doesn't actually stand for "Ian Culverhouse", stands for "Immense c***".

Just a coincidence also his initials.

Now Shay is a coach perhaps Brad will be allowed to stop bladdering the ball upfield.

I think this is the one thing we can can all agree on unreservedly.

[pauliewalnuts]

I get a bit annoyed when people say "twitter is bollocks".

It's like saying "paper is bollocks" because Melanie Phillips has her vindictive sneering shit printed on it. Or "grass is fucking rubbish" because it's grass that Tonev runs around cluelessly on.

Twitter is the medium, it depends entirely on who is doing the tweeting.

If @avfcforever1982, 15 year old with 35 followers tweets something breaking news at Villa, I'll largely disregard it.
If Mat Kendrick tweets something about the same, I will attach much more faith in it because of who is saying it.

When people bang on about twitter, what they're actually doing is making an excuse for them failing to use their cognitive faculties and work out how much veracity they should attach to whatever is being said and who is saying it.
