You say that, but?

We were in a mess when McNasty took over, and he helped turn round our fortunes. Villa could be in a worse state, but the rewards for success at such an "iconic" club - famous old club and stadium, won European trophies yadda yadda - might be attractive as a new challenge.

Lerner is trying to sell, though, so I doubt they'll get a new Chief Exec in before he's flogged it, as whoever buys it might want their own "people" in charge.

        Yeah. although that basket case of a club can't seem appealing, surely? (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:11:00
        
        You say that, but? (NCFC) - Sellbydave, May 10, 12:15:59
        
        Ref Lerner selling (NCFC) - CWC, May 10, 12:23:07
        
        Yes, that's true. We wouldn't have looked appealing. (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:17:32
        
        If it was a simple headhunting/fancy a change whatever (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:35:47
        
        well they might not appoint him officially until the end of the season (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:29:02
        
        Why? would it not suit his new club to be sooner? (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:41:31
      - More like he was backed into a corner after drunk in charge of his twatter account. (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:07:27
        
        board wouldn't have got rid of him just for that (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:10:04
        
        Well, he said he'd resign caused a minor shit storm... (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:26:55
        
        I don't think he backtracked at all (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:22:46
        
        I agree. Would be a tad hypocritical of Delia to sack someone for being publicly drunk (NCFC) - Old Man, May 10, 12:12:06
        
        A more innocent time then though, wasn't it (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, May 10, 12:16:17
        
        You don't sack someone you want to keep, just for that (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:18:25
        
        then we ultimately didn't want to keep him did we, and he simply hastened his exit. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, May 10, 12:22:05
        
        We don't know (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:24:01
        
        Yes really. They accepted his resignation. (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:30:23
        
        You're assuming he resigned over the twitter stuff (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:40:05
        
        So you think if Twittergate didn't happen, he still would've walked Monday? (n/m) (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:54:59
        
        surely Twittergate happened precisely because he intended to resign? (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:03:50
        
        That's what I thought (NCFC) - KentonCanary, May 10, 13:15:02
        
        surely the only reason for the 'storm'... (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:19:24
        
        Too much sensible thought. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, May 10, 13:05:21
        
        Exactly. (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 13:05:18
        
        I don't know the reason (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 13:02:56
    - The politician in him (n/m) (NCFC) - CB41, May 10, 11:58:54
      - Yes... (NCFC) - Brom, May 10, 12:00:12
        
        He's got a speech defect (NCFC) - Jambocanary, May 10, 12:02:16
