Randy Lerner

[saunders_heroes]

Some leadership wouldn't go amiss.

Some leadership wouldn't go amiss.

this is where I differ from lots of people on this
I don't want him back, I don't want him to take charge show leadership,
I want him to stay where he is and say nothing

I want him to have nothing to do with any decision making regarding running the club outside of agreeing the money we spend,
And let the new board make all and every decision regarding managers players and the way we progress forward

[Jimbo]

The very least he can do is apologise.

[saunders_heroes]

The very least he can do is apologise.

Yeah I wonder if we'll get any kind of statement from the great man himself?

[auntiesledd]

But there are decisions Lerner is going to have to make regarding money as well, he can't hide away from any responsibility thousands of miles away. All he has to do is tell them what they have to work with and to get on with it, it's not hard, if he can't even be bothered with that and we are waiting around for his bi annual phone call then he's a bigger c*** than I imagined.

Either way the coward is a neglectful idiot who should be barred from owning any sporting institution in the future.

Correctamundo, sadly. Some folk blame everybody else at the club for this horrendous state we are in, but the buck stops (quite literally) with the useless, cowardly moron at the top. Words barely describe the utter contempt I have for Randolph Fecking Lerner. When our club so desperately requires leadership & a completely new plan to rebuild this utter shambles, our owner continues to hide somewhere on the USA's Eastern Seaboard & thinks the best part of 200 million quid is a realistic price to rid him of his wrecked toy. God help us.

e

Let me get this right, you actually want him to come back take charge and start running the football club under his leadership ?

I want him to fuck-right-off ASAP! Unfortunately, seeing as the aforementioned probably isn't going to happen anytime soon: I think it is in everybody's interest at the club that he involves himself in doing something to bring about positive change, rather than continuing to hide away in unaccountable silence.

disagree entirely,
stay away with no involvement and let the new board get on with it

I agree. If we improve enough under the new board for him to be in a better position to sell it to the right people, then so be it.

[Richard E]

Yeah I wonder if we'll get any kind of statement from the great man himself?

What's the point? It would be meaningless platitudes, incomprehensible gibberish or both.

[Clampy]

I think he should and I think he will at some point.

The feckless goon should read it from a script, from stocks in front of the Holte End, where a massive trough of rotting fruit and assorted nasties awaits a baying mob of furious fans.

[HolmesyVilla]

He still has a tiny chance for me to salvage himself at Villa and the only way is to come on the pitch before k.o. against the barcodes and give some kind of rousing words, apologies all well and good but I wanna see some backbone of this man. The opportunity is there for him.
If this don't happen then I think I will cpletely give up on him

What, the new Board who are reliant on the owner giving the final word on how much money is available to carry out their plans?! He who pays the piper - also calls the tune.

Oh yes? Who is blaming "everybody else at the club" then?

Most football boards are reliant on financial budget restrictions that they don't have complete control over, this is quite common

Indeed, but how many clubs are in our situation presently?
