I feel sick.

What's the skinny, Damon? King doing lines off the shaft of gabby's penis?

That's the worst thing. I have no idea. It's just bombshell after bombshell. I just hope it's something trivial

Got to be some kind of player misdemeanours with a bit of luck, resulting in some mass sackings.

Gabby? Jack? Id be amazed if the Sun's readership would have a clue who they are.

Dies this mean everything is now in limbo at the club ? Not like there's any urgency with relegation assured and no manager..ffs

Not so bothered about King as he made a mess of the Bank of England and was only appointed because he's a fan.

I really don't think that's fair at all. He made some mistakes, definitely. But some good judgments as well.
Possibly slightly harsh, but as a professionally qualified (FCIB) banker with 39 years in the sector I don't believe he came out of the post-October 2008 period with too much credit.

Here's a cheerful thought...

How about the banks that control the Lerner trust fund foreclose on debts and force us into bankruptcy?

Jesus. I maintain that Randy will be in front of a select committee dressed as a woman before this is all over.

It's not like it can be a football thing. But then again, it means it's likely to be an affair, an unsavoury incident or maybe we're actually the club involved in the doping allegations.

Can a foreign bank force a UK company into bankruptcy ?

The only thing that I'm trying to work out is this "radical solutions" thing. Does Bernstein mean having a manager solely in charge of footballing affairs is radical to the Villa system, or were they pushing a manager/DOF way which has been pooh-poohed? That seems like an over-the-top response to a difference of opinion to me.

Anyway, I fear Reilly's position is as safe as houses. He's as cancerous as the players.

I think with regard to Reilly etc,we've seen previously how people(Faulkner/Lambert) seem to intigrate themselves into Lerner's inner confidant.They have his ear,his belief and confidence until such a time that their positions are completely untenable or beyond redemption,or until someone else blows his torch.Witness the cosy Lambert post divorce chats.Undoubtedy,there will be some clown telling him that it can be done on the cheap,on the overreach.Look at that Burnley or Brighton Mr L.

Lerner has  always struck me as a man whom congratulates,or rather has a self centric view of his own inner pride and moral compass.That's taken an absolute caning,a mullering on the public stage,whether it's his Stateside buddies reading the American financial journals or the Holte end giving him the broadside,he's been illuminated and shown up.

I suspect he want's to be the real deal making the decisions,calling the shots,enforcing his viewpoint.Even if it's a compass set to permanent South.We,and he,might hit lucky,but as with his previous changes of policy,I ferkin seriously doubt it.There isn't no SGT riding in with a desperation to grab us by the nuts and shake it all up...Not with this unlucky,Daddy's shadow Big man, permanent underachiever. Can we have his mom or 18 year old son,without his influence as our next Head honco.They couldn't be anymore useless.
