Oaks Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 so avfc have basically offered him the job then if its all to be resolved by 1.30 tomorrow? No, i think more likely Whelan has asked it to be resolved by 1.30 tomorrow, which is fair enough, he's their manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redditch_Villa Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 so avfc have basically offered him the job then if its all to be resolved by 1.30 tomorrow? That's basically what Whelan has came out with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coops_AVFC Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Don't think it literally means we've offered him the job. I took it as 'i'll be getting a decision from RM if he's going to stay at Wigan, or go and talk to Villa properly'. Could be wrong, but I think there's a long way to go on this.

I thought it was just that he was due to be meeting with RM tomorrow lunch time so he'd find out what the score was then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelGabriel Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 At least with Dave Whelan or even Doug Ellis, you know where you stand - Lerner needs to change the way he goes about things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyOne Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Has anyone actually thought of Martinez transfer record? He's not gonna find quality across Europe is he? He would find it hard just to attract decent players from the Premier League. How exactly are we meant to progress under him? I understood it with Houllier due to his connections, but Martinez has nothing of the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, he should say things more in public just so us fans know what's happening? Why does that matter? Every club that seems to deal with us says how professional we are and how respectful we are. What's wrong with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I like Martinez but he hasn’t got enough experience yet to take over at Villa. If we have half the problems this year we did last, I don’t know whether he’d be able to handle it or not. I’d be happy to have him, but only with Houllier as DoF.
