Olano 110 Posted May 20, 2012 According to this news paper and norwgan media Lambert will go to Birmingham early next week. -A club statement said: “We are aware that certain individuals have been linked with our managerial vacancy but, out of respect to all potential candidates and any clubs they may currently be employed by, we will not discuss specific individuals by name.” One of those candidates to be interviewed by Villa is Norwich boss Paul Lambert who will hold talks with the club early next week.http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/aston-villa-fc/2012/05/19/ole-gunnar-solskjaer-storm-over-aston-villa-trip/#ixzz1vJih8ly7I dont know if this is a good paper ore not.

JF 694 Posted May 20, 2012 For him to talk to Villa, Villa have to approach Norwich and ask for permission to speak with him. I think every Norwich fan knows what the response to that would be! So the only chance of them talking to him would be an illegal approach, Then if he wanted the job he would have to resign. I don''t see that happening.

I am a Banana 0 Posted May 20, 2012 Lambert can''t just resign, he has to give a year notice being a 1 year rolling contract.? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted May 20, 2012 [quote user="I am a Banana"]Lambert can''t just resign, he has to give a year notice being a 1 year rolling contract.?[/quote]That''s not correct, ''Nana. You can resign without seeing out your contract, which is generally why transfer fees are starting to be paid (e.g. Redknapp to Spurs). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted May 20, 2012 Nope, he can simply resignHowever the years contract means that either party is entitled to a years salary if the other party breaks that contractthere may also be other clauses in that contract which restricts the actions of either party over that following year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,273 Posted May 20, 2012 Too many rumours and stories for me now. People either make them up or believe them to suit their own agenda. I got onto this Mail article about it all, more fairytales really. I posted my views posing as a fake neutral. I am currently minus 18, suggesting that there are more Villa fans who read the Mail than Norwich fans, and nothing more. I need a media and a forum holiday. I''m pissed off with it all and quite exhausted. Pass my fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
