  1. Obvious its not Lambert or Martinez for job. RL does not rate PL and after last years fiasco does not want RM

    Poyet is the man....by the way he is missing from a charity match at Stamford Bridge this morning according to Alistair Campbell on Twitter

    Just arrived at Stamford Bridge to play for Cystic Fibrosis v MPs. Alas Gus Poyet no show. Come on @GaryLineker Still time

  2. I think Gus Poyet fits RL's criteria perfectly. Cheap and easy to get with potential. Cant imagine him turning Villa down either so no risk of being embarrassed yet again. IMO if we have no money we could do worse.

    Poyet being interviewed today by any change? :D

  3. One of our biggest problems is the whole image of the west midlands which is piss poor

    Credit to Manchester and Liverpool some how they have dragged their ghetto images out of focus and spun a vibrant dynamic spin on their geography

    When in reality it's not, walk 500m in any direction of the Etihad & you're into a shit heap as bad if not worse than Aston / witton / nechelles / lozelles

    **** hell, I agree with CI twice in one day! :lol:

    Birmingham has always struggled with an identity compared to Manchester and Liverpool. The nightlife, bands and football teams all go to shaping an image of a city.

    Birmingham and the Midlands in general, has always had a problem with self promotion, and this rubs off on the club too.

    Led Zepplin are always touted as a London band, despite Robert Plant being from the Midlands and John Bonham being a proper Brummie.

    No **** outside Brum new OCS were from here - assuming another Manchester band - despite their album being called The Moseley Shoals.

    Can't escape bloody celeb West Ham or Man U fans, but ask anyone about a famous Villa fan and they'll be scratching their heads.

    Birmingham used to have some awesome clubs, with people travelling into the city for God's Kitchen, Babooshka, Moneypennies in their prime... Now we have Chris Herd's fav, Gatecrasher - the embers from Sheffield's finest. Even that place had the Full Monty.

    Newcastle with Goal and Billy Elliot. Can you imagine a Birmingham based film?

    Anyway, I believe Brum is seen as boring and so are Villa, to the rest ofnthe country. There's a point in there somewhere.....

    Famous Villa fans - Our current prime minister rings a bell. Alongside Tom Hanks (jokingly nonetheless). Prince William etc... :3 We have our fair share :P

    Yes big Dave Cameron was raised on the Villa, his Uncle led us through our glory days 30 years ago!!

  4. people blaming the tree are way off. Given the circumstances Mcleish left under, I fully expect any potential managers to be leaked in the local press. They will want to gauge fan reaction. Look how much closer Kendrick and others are to the club these days.

    James Nursery in past few days has been consistent....Ole is a "Good Candidate" but we have other "Great options".....these words have come from high in the food chain well before yesterday.

    :idea: Keep the faith

  5. I definitely think that the new manager will be someone who is totally off our radar, this is for the reason that apparently they are interviewing a few candidates and we have not heard any clubs saying they have given permission for us to speak with any manager.

    Either it is someone out of work or somebody out of this country with a club that can keep stum. any premier league team would be shouting from the rafters if they had been approached.

    Guess we may be in for a suprise.

    I suspect the situation is delicate (more so than most years) with Liverpool,Villa,WBA and possibly Chelsea looking for a manager,everyone holding their cards close to their chest it seems.

    :notworthy:

  6. I stated late last night Mr Lerner would have problems not appointing OGS as there has been overwhelming support from the fans. OGS allegedly saying no will go someway into alleviating this pressure. As i see it all roads lead southwards to where another Scandinavian group had great success in 1974...The seagull will follow the trawler........."

  7. A lot can and will probably change over the coming week. OGS is young, exciting and his arrival would be joyfully received by the majority of supporters. Personally i do not believe that he is the favoured candidate right now. If so Mr Lerner will then have the problem that the internet frenzy / over hyping has rallied the supporters into unity and a tidal wave of messages have been sent to the club. Will these supporters accept any other manager whole heartedly or will they feel they have been let down by the board once more and a missed opportunity in OSG. A few poor results and the OUT brigade will start saying "We told you so". Mr Lerner knows who he wants as manger, will he appoint?

    After the last game of the season the twitter feed on the home page was switched on, what was viewed was probably the final nail in the coffin for McLeish!
