Key people were brought into to steady the ship a little over 4 weeks ago. In the main these were seen as positive appointments. The departures of King and Bernstein lay bare the idea that Lerner is taking a back seat - so all the advice in the world is worthless - so who jumps ship next ?

Word has it that Riley is well in with Lerner so I think he is here to stay.

League 1 anyone?

I don't see that. Neither are here long term. But there departures will be less high profile - probably early next season imo

The news is that Reilly is taking over as our manager. What are his qualifications, you ask? The man has won the Treble in Football Manager 2010, 2011, and 2016, not to mention has plenty of fancy Aston Villa business cards to hand out at Walsal's training ground...

Wendy is like me and woke up to all this shit! lol!

Two assumptions that I can see:

1. There's a sale process ongoing that they've not been advised of, or haven't been included in or that they do not approve of.
2. Their job has been made untenable due to Lerner interfering and undermining any actions they take.

If it's 1. they must be completely in the dark about it. King says new ownership is imperative but is also saying "Good luck with getting that to happen!" Bernstein doesn't mention a sale but, like King, does mention internal issues preventing him from fulfilling his role.

I do not see how Lerner can recover from this. He'll get no-one else on the board, there's no sane manager that will come now so.....???

Could this be a very brave bluff by Hollis to get Lerner to back the fuck up? Is there a chance that Bernie and Merv will withdraw their resignations? I just can't see that happening, can you?

No I can't see them withdrawing their resignations. Board level resignations are like guns in the sense that once you pull the trigger you don't get the projectile back again. Unless you want to look petulant and surrender all professional gravitas, when you walk you stay walked.

League 1 is exactly where we are now destined for, at the same rate of pace as we have just exited the Premiership. This club is not going to be ready, nowhere near, for next season. It's beginning to look like Lerner will have to strip the club totally to get some money back. He is utterly useless and I hope his Jet does a grand impression of flight MH370.

All looks fishy to me, Gabby gets set up in a contract-compromising position that's highly likely to lead to his dismissal for gross misconduct (I bet he was given a warning last time) and hours before the news breaks two board members resign.

That or I just like starting conspiracy theories!

I have no doubt Gabby will be on his way out, it's the link to the two resignations that is curiously timed. Bearing in mind how well the photo is set up and how Gabby doesn't exactly look happy about it, perhaps Bernstein and King weren't either.

I can barely think how much more bizarre this can all get. But the thing is, it WILL get more bizarre.

A guess, mate. But since I posted that, we've had one media outlet claim the resignations were over an email spat after Lerner found Bernie and King chatting shit about him.

The crazy train rolls on.

Riley is going no where, he is married to someone high up in the Villa Finance side according to the radio last night
