That's unfair. As someone who occasionally has made an arse of himself with bibs, they can at times be more complex a proposition than a krypton factor test, I can say that the bib test is no indication of brightness. And I'm well clever.

I don't think Lerner is thick, I don't think he's very bright though. Agbonlahor on the other hand...

I agree about Lerner. If he was genuinely thick you may cut him a bit of slack, but what he's done to this club is calculated and deliberate.

What's wrong with saying he's thick, is it because it's not very nice to say so?
No one seems to have a problem saying these things about Agbonlahor even though probably no one on here knows him personally. A bit of a double standard I think.

*inserts that clip of him trying to put a bib on*

*rests case*

Isn't his dad a doctor and his sister a teacher? He can't be as thick as he looks, surely?

My son is a bit of a maths genius, he doesn't enjoy the subject but it comes naturally to him. He's always being asked to join some maths team but flatly refuses.
Chuck him a bib at football training and you could be there all night whilst he worked out what to do with it.
Agbonlahor is spectacularly thick though.

Can we agree Lerner has been a bit of a silly-billy?

An absolute wanker would be the perfect words to describe him.

It is unfair to make judgement on Max. His grandfather Alfred Lerner was good owner for The Browns as he help to get NFL back to Cleveland. Don't know much about Alfred. But Max should have better education in school and probably follow Aston Villa at home. As long Max prepared to move to UK and do a degree in University of Birmingham and be at Villa Park part time he can learn the job, I won't have any objections. As Aston Villa belongs to The Lerner Family Trust (I think)

Give him a role and voice but don't give him power until he is ready maybe after 5 years.

I agree about Lerner. If he was genuinely thick you may cut him a bit of slack, but what he's done to this club is calculated and deliberate.

So he's deliberately gone out of his way to lose £100-150M?

That wouldn't be thick, that would be insane.

You can't accept that he's just useless at running a sporting organisation?

well we need a plan if we don't sell the club. No one is buying football clubs these days.

He's doing it to torment you personally.

He's got a book running with Faulkner, Fox, Krulak and MON to see how long it takes to leave you saying W i b b l e.
