CrackpotForeigner Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 The idea of finding out what Lerner has for pudding is an excellent one. Sticky toffee pudding with fudge sauce and vanilla ice cream means Lambert's a goner and the takeover's on. Don't ask me why, it's just a feeling.

Popular Post smetrov Posted May 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 15, 2014 Come on we must have a VT member who lives in that area..... I want to know what Lerner has for pudding.... They don't seem to do puddings according to the menu http://meetinghouseamagansett.com/dinner-menu/ I think I'll start with the mussels in tomato/fennel broth and then have the salmon pilaf. Bit worried by this - I hope no one comes to any harm ah - theyve got a kids menu ! - Now we know where the 'Young and Hungry' policy came from ! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people want this done and dusted yesterday but I'd rather wait and get the right buyer rather than the first buyer and I'd say Lerner will be trying his hardest to do just that and when he's gone I'll not just remember the last few seasons but look at his reign as a whole which is one were we never quite got CL and never quite got relegated and I've had some great times and some awful.

One For The Road Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 From a good source of mine: He has just told me there's four sheikhs playing pool in the Witton Arms. Were they playing killer for a billion pounds a corner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 "My cousin works for John Lewis, but I don't know whether he's ever met Mr Lewis in person. I could ask him, I suppose?" I have been in touch with Randy following your suggestion Rob. His value for the club is a tad high for me at the moment and he has told me he has never knowingly undersold any club he has owned but I have stressed it is essential we sell to the right buyer quickly!

fightoffyour Posted May 15, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted May 15, 2014 But wait, I see a boom gate. Am I too late with this information? Can you make the pic bigger so we can count the chairs in the windows? **BREAKING NEWS** I can confirm there are more than 3 chairs set out in that restaurant. Dale Stephens, Jermain Defoe and Kwan.

mykeyb Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 So rather than have a meeting somewhere quite like at his house, he has closed his restaurant immediately flagging it up so he, Lambert & Faulkner can meet the prospective new owners.. Couldnt it just be a case of having a meal with two employees and saying a big thanks.......and nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
