Santa_Rosa Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Tom are you (A) Subtly Clever ie. deft or ( Musically challenged Or a fan of the Deftones perhaps? :| Back on topic I'm with you Ronk. N&P know they are way behind and need to try something a bit audacious to get back in the game. A bit like a manager who's 3-0 down sticking 4 up front for the last 10 minutes. Never works...

dundeevilla Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I just received this email from Steve Dyson, editor of the Mail, after I mailed him this morning with a general moan about their recent coverage: "Hi Scott Our information is that O'Neill should be manager within days, and that Lerner is still at the negotiating table. We can't say more really, rather than let's see what happens in the next few days. Do not doubt, however, that this newspaper will explode should any of what we understand to be taking place is derailed by intransigence at the club. Watch this space - and keep nudging. Thanks again Steve" Interesting.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denis_B Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 The Prof should do his research before spouting. The price was set at the beginning when Rothchild set it all up. The talk of him starting in the £50ms and going up into the £60ms is nonsense as he walked last week due to Doug trying this ploy of pushing the price up. I am convinced that people on here know more than these 'experts' rolled in to make their personal opinions sound like fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy_Lion Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I had one too which is pretty similar, as i sent an email saying that Ellis had better not mess this up. It's high time for him to go and if he keeps prevaricating, there'll be no hiding place for him. And that Lerner and O'Neill are the dream team for Villa. I got this response (fair play for replying) Hi Richard: Thanks for your note. We too are on hot bricks as we wait to see whether our man at Villa has got it right! We believe he has, having had access to the information and sources he is using. That is, O'Neill should be manager within days, and that Lerner is still at the negotiating table. We can't say more really, rather than let's see what happens in the next few days. Do not doubt, however, that this newspaper will explodeshould any of what we understand to be taking place is derailed by intransigence at the club. Watch this space - and keep nudging.
