What's the point being so cryptic. If not the fact I resent the attention seeking I was about to go and do something productive like eat.

I would have Lambert or Martinez and then watch BBC4, which is clearly one of the best options for a tv station. In fact, all these three things are clearly good options to a sensible human being

It's hilarious the way people assume things (all that conjecture). I'm a bit gutted because I've lost money, if I had won the money I was going to put a little bit on us to get relegated next season too. OGS was exciting because it could have been inspired, but it might have gone terribly too. Just look at Ianrobo on astonnewsviews making out it was a done deal for a week and tweeting every few minutes saying the same things, some of these reactions are delerious considering all anyone can really go on regarding OGS's ability to manage Villa is a youtube video made by MUFC and one season managing Molde. I really liked this option with OGS but why go mental at Randy because he's not going to be the manager? We only know about OGS because of the whole plane thing - and that's quite amazing, the way the whole thing escalated from a poster on villatalk - why do some people always have to find a scape-goat? Bit of patience maybe.

I'd feel different if the player had the brains of a lesser footballer and not one who seems as sharp as he does. He is a compelling choice. I hope we get him.

Richard - bollocks - he is NOT unknown, he is NOT inexperienced in the Prem or in English football. Ask yourself if it was Lauresen or Mellberg with NO managing experience in England what would you say then? I wish I'd said all that. Richard is sounding a bit patronising.

Are you struggling with the way the world works? He is OGS, the guy from Man U - of course that makes an impact on the hype. It's been said, I think most people are aware this is a risk, but at least it is an exciting risk regarding someone with an attacking football philosophy and not a shit risk like they got involved in by hiring McLeish. Chill out?

Damn I agree with the Gent

As should this website I hope , what with all these VT members sharing the new found wealth..... Socialist. Capitalist

Yeah I watched the video and he's won me over. Also won me over getting 20/1 - so close on 33/1 So the plane is bringing him back?!

Lamberts odds are tiny. I wouldn't even get a chomp bar from £10. I would be very happy.

No way, me too

Oh please do elaborate This should be good Our squad is so shit. There's not much difference I'd say. Maybe theirs has more balance too. So shit.

I think the Fonz is better than Gabby now. He is the only forward with pace and should be on the bench.

It's all on Lerner. Monumental **** up decisions one after the other, McLeish is only the cherry on top but what a shitty cherry

Clark scored a few goals from midfield last year. It's not ideal but the squad is a bit shit. Apart from Weimann and Ireland it's hard to see any other changes and maybe they're not fit.

I don't think the lineup is too bad - have you people seen the squad? We'll be going for crosses anyway - I might have put Ireland in but maybe he's not fully fit yet (makes sense considering he had been playing well). 11/1 for a nil nil sounds good to me.

This is funny football

What mr general said is fair enough. (But please do sack the manager after staying up or relegation is settled).

Cry definitely

Makoun looks classy to me. I don't get how anyone could moan about those short passes - some of them were impressively incisive. At least now all our CM's can play FOOTBALL (a-hem...NRC). Quality player.

It's true that losing out on our first choice replacement for the sake of £1m does have a whiff of cutting off our nose to spite our face, but dagnabbit it's the principle of the matter! Mind you, who am I to argue about principles? I spent most of yesterday staring at Emma from Marketing's cracking tits whilst she was giving a very important presentation on the new communications framework and for the life of me I can't remember any salient points from the meeting (well, except for the obvious two). :?

Blame the press for that one. You do come across as someone who pays too much attention to what you read/hear in the press. Am I allowed to say that? No offence. Just because the media are doing their usual tripe doesn't mean the club are not going about this properly.

Or it shows his loyalty to Wigan - Whelan stood by him all season - the last two seasons - and gave him his chance in the prem. They have a close relationship and it would be a bit of a dick thing to do to abandon ship after all the support he has been given. He has just formed his own team at Wigan and is only 37. It's not unbelievable that him staying at Wigan has nothing to do with Villa at all. So get off your high horse. Mysteryman on H&V said the meltdown specifically referred to Moyes but that he doesn't know what happened with that. Everton might have just said 'no' you can't talk to him. Whether it's not the most ruthless method or whatever it seems Villa are behaving with respect to other clubs. I don't mind that. I'd rather that than to support some soulless dickhead club. Still be nice to have a manager though.

26% AT WIGAN. Can we not go through all this moaning shit again. Fair play on here but the point is to support the team - AND whoever is in charge. I can't hack the thought of going through all that bullshit again.

I like it. Didn't he have to work on more of a budget than Bruce at Wigan, hence them not being as good? Am I clutching at straws or **** right. A young up and coming manager who has a good football philosophy. Some of the bigger names might simply be out of our reach - simple as that. We just lost our biggest name manager and this might just be the best decision we could make. Face facts. Martinez could build something here over time.
