Randy Lerner

He needs to help us out now and open the wallet. Imagine the lift we'd have if we went out an bought a striker. Still 8 points behind and we can still do it.

A keeper, centre mid and Striker could just do it, it would be a long shot still, a very long shot but still a shot. All in before the Albion game, give them a hiding and away we go. I can't see it happening but stranger things have.

Even if Lerner opened his wallet, it would seem there are very few players who might make a difference willing to come to B6, which seems to be confirmed by Remi's comments.

I expect our only hope is likely to be some loan players  being a possible solution, probably from foreign leagues.

How much should he spend on players and wages in this window and who should be signed? Make a realistic working assumption these players want to come.

And do you think it should be dependent on the number of wasters, including those on Proper Premier League Wages, we get rid of?

No chance! Halfway  through January and no signings says it all...

I read somewhere that 2 players have turned down a transfer, so far. That was before the renaissance against Palace. Everything could have changed, now there's a Chairman as well!

I look for the slightest hint of hope, these days.

Is he actually making a statement or is he on a crack binge?

Thanks for that Phil, you provided me with the first laugh-out-loud moment of the day.

Never give up, never lose hope, even if it's only a glimmer!

I'm picking up a reference to Galaxy Quest in 'Never give up' which is in itself, a glimmer for Alan Rickman....and hopefully, for Villa. He won in the film, didn't he?
Desperate stuff, IanJ!

Decent read. What a sad story all of this is.

It wasn't but now you mention it, maybe it should be our new motto, Never give up, never surrender!

It lost me when it said we'd have to spend £100 million to get out the Championship. Unless he means the top six?

It's good that our plight is being discussed in the mainstream media, but the level of understanding and analysis is superficial.

Our new motto should be 'Simpering Fiddlers'.
