Has this got anything to do with Fox,Jackson & Ward signing contracts knowing that Culverhouse is

staying.

Yes I know 2+2=5. just a thought.

[/quote]I think I heard they were just automatic clauses that were triggered.Good lateral thinking though.[Y]

[AJ 1,218]

Yeah, they are automatic clauses installed in contracts that the club can activate and of which the players have no say in

Who would decide to activate these extented contracts, which players they want to keep without any manager.

Thompson was at Villa for 2 seasons, he was also playing for Celtic at the same time as Lambert.

If Culverhouse stays here it won''t and indeed shouldn''t be as manager, big difference between being a coach and a manager and I can''t see Mcnally taking any risks. I would imagine he''ll be following the traitor to Villa Park anyway.

[paul moy 235]

Just announced.  I notice that he used to play for Villa and played under Martin O''Neill. Just got me thinking ........ 2 + 2 = ?

As for Paddy Power suspending betting most firms do overnight although Skybet usually keep their odds up .

[paul moy 235]

Ah, sorry folks. I''ve been asleep for a couple of hours and just woke up and heard that on Talksport. So others are thinking the same. Will go to the other thread, Thanks Morty.

Thing is , doesn''t McNally also know Thompson ? Could he be coming here as another guy in the Lambert mold ?

This Thompson development has spiced up the whole situation at Villa with regard to him joining Lambert and here with the Culverhouse will he stay will he go scenario.

Hey Morty what''s the betting our friend from across the Pond starts thread No.3 on this same subject shortly under some obscure title ? [:D]

[Google Bot 3,272]

If Lennon was to become our manager, then would there be any sense/reasoning that Thompson would leave first?

Just wondering like, to see if that was another option.

[paul moy 235]

Also interesting is that he was at Leeds with Gus Poyet and played under Dave Basset (2007)...... ummmmmmmm

[paul moy 235]

Bassett is currently available after quitting Sheff Utd.....

A Bassett/Thompson or Poyet/Thompson managerial partnership ?

Anyone noticed that Thompson appears to have been sacked and not left of his own free will?

Sorry to piddle on everyones cornflakes, but it appears this changes nothing.

[Branston Pickle 3,654]

To be fair no one really knows it means, but it might have some bearing on things, we''ll see in the coming days/ weeks

[priceyrice 123]

ha, and there was me thinking he was still playing football, great player in his day, should have earnt more England caps i think, expect the rumours to Villa could be true

[Officer Tillys small Willies (Nigel,lappy) 0]

This could be great for the transition period with the new manager. Im sure celtic will be so greatful to Lambert for this if they dont win the league next season

He wont be going to Villa.

Yup, looks like we were barking up the wrong tree with Thompson to Villa.

[GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,748]

Thompson wasnt even no.2 at Celtic ,Johan Mjallby is, I''m not sure he was even no.3 either as Garry Parker was there aswell??

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

I didn''t realise Molby was at Celtic.  You could tell he had quality when he played for us, but unfortunately he was very fat.
