  1. Could it be that Bernstein and King identified Moyes as the best new manager and where told Hollis/Lerner would contact him? As this came the same day that Moyes said he had not been contacted by the club, but still is keen on the job?

    Does anybody use it that way? I've never heard it with that meaning, always as 'things will get better soon'. Which certainly doesn't look to be true for Villa.

    I think it may be used that way, but English is not my Mother tongue, so I may be incorrect.

    Lets hope things will get better soon, I think there is a good possiblity it will get better next season, although I wouldn't bet on it.

    Well, so is midday the day before.

    However, the way the idiom is used is to mean 'things will soon get better' - it's comforting. It just isn't true. If 'bad = nighttime darkness', then after the worst (darkest) there's a long period of slightly less dark/bad before the light/good comes.

    Or it could be seen as: It will get better, but we do not know when yet.

    Greetings, welcome to VillaTalk. 

    However, it is definitely not always darkest before dawn. It's darkest in the middle of the night, as common sense would suggest. 

     

    The middle of the night is before dawn, though?

    Haha, is he not at the game? Maybe 20,000 people calling him a rocket polisher is a bit too much for a man **** up a club on £1.2m a year.

    Gets paid £25,000 a week and doesn't turn up.

    The same as our players then, but they gets paid the double.

    GARDE TO CONSIDER VILLA FUTURE

    Aston Villa manager Remi Garde has indicated he may reassess his position in the summer after failing to land any of his transfer targets. 

    The Frenchman has missed out on all of the players he wanted to aid Villa's survival bid in the Premier League, missing out on Seydou Doumbia, Wahbi Khazri and goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic. 

    "Maybe it was not as clear when I signed, but it's something that I don't want to discuss too much," Garde said. 

    "I understand that you cannot carry on doing the same things when you have not been as successful as you have wanted. 

    "I cannot say the club hasn't done everything they could. It wouldn't be fair. I'm not happy about this situation. I am not stupid and saying we need nobody. 

    "Some people have to be brave enough to say what have we done wrong in the past and what we should be doing now to stop that and to be better, maybe not in the next months but the next season or in two or three years."
