looks like he's done some written press and tv work, sounds like he's applying for the job, a "keep me on, nowt to do with me" etc!

This is the bit I wanted to know was genuine. Because it's stunningly undiplomatic (even if Lerner has acknowledged his failings himself).

I'd like to read the context of what that statement was made in.

Where are these TF comments coming from mate?

As mentioned just saw it on SSN earlier today.

Tom Fox has been at some corporate do with Vialli it's not specifically about Villa. Obviously given his job he is bound to get questions that are Villa related.

I don't think Sky will have a brief interview with Tom Fox constantly on loop. It'll probably be on once an hour. It's definitely on there as I've seen it myself.

It was a tweet from a journalist. think he must have done a few media interviews today, to written and tv as there are a few quotes flying around and a little bit of footage on sky news (he's said similar before, not quite as scathing, but certainly implied) sounds like a man trying to distance himself from club failings and secure his own future!
