he apparently walked out on them, after not being allowed to speak to them when they approached norwich, was always likely to happen given the season they had. |  |

Another example of how useless and ineffective contracts are in the world of football. Whilst none of us know, I would think there were clauses in there in the event of an approach from a so-called 'higher club'.
If they have refused him permission to speak to Villa in those circumstances, then he is entitled to walk away.
Stand by fro fireworks, and Grant Holt to Villa Park ..

If there is such a clause in his contract, it'd be interesting to see what the definition of a "higher club" is though - it might help in the debate about what constitutes a "big" club!
Normally, the clause might specify "a club in a higher division" but obviously not in the premiership.
IMO the Villa job is as poisoned a chalice as it gets. If Martin O'Neill can see fit to walk away after several highly-placed finishes, only a masochist would take it on. |  |

From what I understand from a friend of mine who works for Norwich talks to keep lambert have been going on for a week or so but financially villa are offering wages way beyond ncfcs means.
So swans and Norwich lose out which means top championship clubs get twitchy. Norwich have lee Clark who of course used to be assistant and malky mackay of Cardiff in their sights |  | | |

I always assumed that the term 'Big Club' referred to any club that had recently appointed a new manager, who was then obliged to refer to his new employers as such in any subsequent press conference. League status is usually irrelevant.
For example,' Big Club Bradford City' or 'Big Club Plymouth Argyle'. It's all bollocks really, and no more than a convenient 'sound-bite'.

I cant see Clark going back to work as a number 2, and would be surprised if Mackay left Cardiff, will probably be someone out of contract, Roy Keane maybe  | |

i knew as soon as villa became interested lambert would be off
he didn't show any loyalty to colchester after one game in the season leaving them for arch rivals norwich.
hes now got a huge job to do at villa to make them anywere near as good as the norwich team hes left.
nothing to see here, money talks |  | | |

You mean the season where Norwich rebuilt the entire side won the league by a street and bounced up straight to the premier league. It was a disaster being relegated I'm sure soton fans feel the same |
thats true yea, im sure the budgies saw it as a step forward when they dropped out of the championship, hindsight is a beautiful thing, certainly a big season for them next year. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Ipshite are on the slide they'll do a Coventry, Sheffield wed, Sheffield utd, man city, Leeds etc and end up there and maybe come back stronger but hopefully they'll do a Bradford | | | |

Don't see any evidence to think that will happen. Will start the season well, fall off around Christmas, come back strong around march trying a late surge for the top 6, then fall off in April and end up 15th. Only saving grace is that at least PJ now looking at youth once more, 'stead of the useless 30 year olds been full off last year, if only Rhodes hadn't been booted by mr Keane. | |

what else is there left to do at Norwich? In finishing 12th last season, he might at a push find himself being able to get them a couple of places higher, but they'll never be able to financially compete enough to finish in the top 8.
Perhaps as well, Lambert has seen that when one of the big jobs has come up, the likes of Rodgers and Martinez have been linked, and despite arguably doing a better job than both, he's been overlooked. It could be that he sees the need to transform the nature of a club like Villa if he wants to make that step up, and I'm sure Villa will be able to provide more financial backing to break into that top 8 than they could at Norwich. |  | | |

I agree with what you say here but Norwich, traditionally at any rate, is a bigger club than both Wigan and Swansea.
Perhaps, in some people’s eyes, Lambert has achieved what is expected of a club’s Norwich’s size.
I don’t personally, of course. I think the days of Norwich taking on the likes of Bayern Munich are long gone — and Lambert has achieved a great feat in keeping Norwich up, never mind guiding them to a mid-table finish.
Despite this, Rodgers’ achievement at Swansea does eclipse this, it has to be said.

villa have so much debt that despite the size of the gates they are a team who can't compete with the big boys anymore they need lambert because of his genius of picking up lower league players. Villa are 50m in debt but they'll pay lambert four times what he earns at Norwich. It won't be plain sailing for him. Good to luck to him.
Norwich have also released a statement saying holt will not be sold. We'll see | | | |

It'll be interesting to see what happens, rumours out of Norwich that culverhouse might stay at Norwich as manager, can't see it he'll go with lambert. Malky mackay seems to be the first choice although crazily Neil Lennon seems to be mentioned. As for hOlt if he's sold McNally will look like a tvat as he's gone on record as saying holty is going nowhere | | | |
