What just like Doug had problems!

Ex Villa players know as much as me! Nothing!

McCleish cannot stand Villa, it's that SIMPLE!

As you keep repeating the same stuff he does.

If we had contacted Everton by now about Moyes you can bet your life it would be everywhere by now.

Bill Kenwright would have made sure of that .

If it was done underhandedly then he would if were going through the right channels then no chance, whether they've said deal or no deal.

arghhh benitez and mclaren were not contacted

two weeks ago Lerner approached moyes and Martinez

Moyes number 1 and Martinez number 2

Moyes always number 1. Martinez asked as backup incase moyes said no

Martinez said no. Moyes likes the idea

Everything sorted now

just be patient

Thanks for the update Mr Lerner.

Spence are you AVFC Mysteryman on Twitter?

McLeish will not be Villa manager.

It won't happen!

I think the one manager that has been linked with us that i would most want to be a success at Villa is Simon Grayson....

Does that mean i want him? Not necessarily but i would wish him all the best and wouldn't be too upset.....

really like the guy and the way his teams play football

No they bloody don't! Their hoof and rush football.

I just can't see it being Hughes, Moyes, Mcleish or Grayson so who the hell is it going to be.

Tim Abraham having a lot to say on the PR and spin.

So those business people didn't too bad when bagging Darren Bent or when they supported MON to the hilt to challenge the top 4! Have they made mistakes? Yes I'd say they have just like any other chairmans do. However would I want anyone else running the club not a chance, they've been at the club 5 years now and do they know everything what goes on in the game, no but who does but I think they have a fairly good idea. We have fans jumping on the bandwagon because of the shit printed in the press. We will get the right manager, and if people seriously think we're targeting the likes of Grayson they're deluded.

what happens when chairmen sign players is shevchenko.

when you let the manager pick who to buy you get darren bent.

us bagging bent wasnt because lerner decided we needed him, it was because houllier did and lerner trusted his judgement. couldnt do anything

else could he really? after all it was only 4 months after he had appointed the guy to manage the team...

the fact that we were slow to replace mon and are now already slow to

replace houllier is fact, it is nothing to do with opinion or what anyone has

written in the press.

What the hell are you on about now. The business men who know **** all about football concluded the Bent deal, Houllier even stated he left it to men at the top of the football club. You say slow but it takes time to get the RIGHT manager in. If we want the likes of Grayson on the Ellis type of manager it would have been done by now.

As seen on Ancelotti now you know why he's putting his feet up.

Who said we're bringing in that calibre of manager, a bit of common sense is required here you do NOT let Houllier go and replace him with Grayson.

Do Fulham start their season early? YES

Did Jol want to manage in London? YES

Was Jol a Free Agent? YES

This is now the killer point?

Did Fulham do all the groundwork on Jol last season? YES

So like I said it's pretty straight forward, Villa are in the process of approaching clubs which is a lot more delicate hence what happened to Fulham when they approached Ajax last year.

You say we shouldn't be compared to Chelsea then don't compare us to Fulham, they had contact with Jol from the previous year so it was pretty straight forward.

Why not they both need managers? Just one is loved by the press! I remember when JPA played he got a lot of stick for not scoring, Torres gets he's trying hard. I say leave the press two it and I'm confident we will have a manager in the next two weeks.

Sorry 1 last point, Chelsea's squad needs a lot of repair so id actually say its crucial they get a manager as soon as possible.

How many millions have they spent? Or have you forgotten that, they spent 70 odd million in Jan, in terms of spending their in another world and basically this is pointless and has no relevance to this topic.

Their quite good are they how many managers have they had since Jose.

Grant

Scolari

Hiddink

Ancellotti

I think there's more chance of MON getting the job instead of McLeish and Grayson, who are both renowned for long ball football something were trying to stop, piss poor journalism.

I can't see it!

No way will Grayson be a manager!

Villa Mat is a bit of a pillock!!! He sits there while his mate rips the piss out of our club. Sorry he can stick his I'm a villa fan act.
