Randy Lerner

So...are we appointing a new manager or not?

It's no good asking Randy, he hasn't got a clue. He gives the impression that he's totally forgotten about the need to employ a new manager. I'm sat here chuckling, but I really shouldn't be.

How awesomely out of touch was that statement? His carers shouldn't let him near a keyboard.

Ah shut up Lerner. The fact this calamitous episode was allowed to continue for so long was entirely down to you. You're risking our club on a near permanent basis now with your Poundland attitude to running a football club. DO NOT choose the next manager, but get one in most Rikki tik.

Then, and with supernatural haste, get to fuck.

I must have missed the investment in the squad over the last three years bit, and I'm also struggling to decode the "quality and leadership" that's going to carry us through to the end of the season.

No need for a new manager while we've still got Keane, Culverhouse, Karsa etc at BodyMoor Heath is there Randy (don't worry I've got my finger on the pulse) Lerner?

Couldn't agree more mate.

There's a good possibility mate, letting O'Neil spunk his money on dross, hiring a manager with heart problems, employing McLeish, the list goes on and on. Might be a good idea to write to Tom Fox to convince Lerner to get a psychiatric evaluation.

That statement does make it sound like they have no intention of employing a permanent manager until the summer doesn't it? sort of follows on from their logic though doesn't it, no attacking coach, no assistant manager and now no manager at all.

The last time he made a statement, Krulak waded in immediately after with an equally bizarre statement of his own. Now it's happened again.

Christ I'd love to be a fly on the wall listening to them chat.

I really do hope that Fox has told Lerner to grab his pipe and slippers, get his maid/bit of Rugeley Rough to keep his glass of scotch topped up and leave everything up to him.

What has Krulak said? I've not seen or read anything?

It's on one of the other pages, Dazzle. We should probably merge a few threads, eh?

Krulak seems to ramble. I bet in person he's like that bloke from the Fast Show

"Needless to say I was very, very drunk"

I don't imagine he knows too much about Villa any more other than what Randy tells him. I'll bet he received a phone call from Randy saying:

"It's happening again, Chuck. Another manager I gave a fortune to has gone and he's saying it's all my fault"

Krulak: "But didn't you admit that it was all your fault?"

Lerner: "Well, yes"

Krulak: "And didn't you admit that you didn't give him enough money?"

Lerner: "I need to get to bed now, Chuck"

Krulak: "And didn't you just give him a new contract?"

Lerner: "Sorry this line is really bad, I can barely hear you"

Krulak: "I'll call the papers in the morning"

Lerner: "No for fuck's sake don't do that!"

Krulak: "You're right, this line IS really bad. I can barely hear YOU"

haha Trotters that did make me laugh out loud, now the other guy in the office is looking at me strange

The Shunamite woman has really let herself go.

Is thetrees still posting on here? He was always good for posting aircraft movement. He used to post on "the other place" but stopped and was on here. Hopefully he hasn't stopped here as well? I know someone posted a tweet of his on here but I liked it when he was posting direct.

He still posts on here occasionally, and i'm sure he will let us know if there's anything worth noting in his area of excellence. He's a good guy.

Good to know. As you say, he's a good guy IMO. Obviously I don't know him personally but invariably agreed with his views over there on the dark side and on here, too. Hopefully he'll end his radio silence soon!

This is Randy's plane unique number - looks like he left at 14.26 yesterday.

N85DN FA7X-07:22-d14:26

His plane is in the section "Elmdon Apron visitors" which is usually at the top of the daily page info.

As VB said, he does post, but not that often, he's a busy chap (spotting planes and other stuff) but we always value his input and posts. Spot on info and genuine factual ITK

Thanks, both. The plane blog looks interesting, I'll have a trawl later.
