Randy Lerner

[pauliewalnuts]

This new chairman, it's the General isn't it?

I suggested this a week or so ago, I think I might actually cry if this happens.  Even if it isn't, it will be someone who knows fuck all about football and has spent a career in timber framed building construction or time share sales such is the fuckwittery of Lerner.

It'll probably someone totally random and unconnected.

Sarah Millican, Chaka Demus, Claire Balding, Leonard Bernstein. That sort.

Someone from Arsenal, ticket seller or bloke who organises the bog cleaning, a mate of fuckwit Fox and Almstadt.

He tends to go for the Bullshit Salesmen types, the ones who talk about projects, false narratives, building something special, hold on to your seats. In other words cliche ridden fuckwits.

I said it weeks ago, its Gerald Ratner

Enough is enough.  If Lerner is still running this club in twelve months time  we will be bottom of the Championship.  How on earth he is getting away with this without serious protests I do not know.   

This. Hitting these guys in the pocket is how we get the message across, up until now the fans have been positively angelic towards the behaviour of the board (maybe we are all apathetic) but something has to give.

Season ticket sales for 2016-17 will be an all time low, we won't attract anyone with potential to our club... we need a clearout from top to bottom

Anyone know any millionaires that can put together a consortium?

I had to Google to check if Leonard Bernstein was actually dead or whether he was a Kirk Douglas/Doris Day type who you assume must have died 20 years ago but are actually still alive.

He's dead.

Chaka Demus would be a good shout if he can work alongside Pliers. What's Bitty McLean up to these days?

So will be far less prone to the monumental fuck-ups that will inevitably plague a living appointment, be more proactive than Lerner when it comes to decision making and will be seen at Villa Park as frequently as our esteemed owner.

Mind you, when you think about what he's spent and lost and is about to lose going down, its mind boggling. He literally could have grabbed some bloke off the street to run the club and lost less money. It's like he had some sort of Brewster's milllions thing going on.

Still won't dent the Lerner fortune. As the son of a hugely successful man, it's unlikely that he has ever really had to work at anything or put it all on the line. People like Lerner are as poorly qualified to pass the Fit & Proper Person test as the thug that owns Chelsea - both deeply unsuitable to be custodian of a famous football club but for different reasons.
Had the entire Lerner fortune been at risk due to our relegation then I am sure that we would be in a different position.

Then he wouldn't be the owner.

Any change of ownership will require either someone of the same wealth level or the joys of a leveraged buy out.

He's dead.

Not enough to rule him out, though.

There are some internet rumours of Lerner's 18 year old son joining the Board.....
