Fingers crossed for Bob Bradley.

What he has said though is that he wont quit, and Ajax have said they wont let anyone buy him out of his contract. So effectively he wont be leaving.

He did the same to Spurs.

He is the best of a bad bunch. To be fair to Jol, his position was made untenable before the start of the season, Spurs had been speaking another manager, Ramos before a ball had been kicked and Spurs had finished 5th the previous season.

Looks like a mistake to be honest. Sort of trying to work out the point of it, realistically the best league position we can hope for is 6th but we aren't bothered about the competition that gets us into.

Yep, I normally site Lower Witton but have just brought 3 tickets in the Lower Holte. You can both them via the website and are available for anyone to buy.

It's KM for me as well. There is a shortage of decent candidates out there and there isn't as much money as we have had previously, so give it to him, he knows our youngsters best as well as it would be good to see them utilized more this season.

Given the level of financial backing he received, that was surely to be expected? He certainly did not exceed my expectations on the results (or many other) fronts. Also, did he not have a slightly lower win (or points) ratio than Gregory? Something like that. Sure I read that somewhere (Sky) That's true, but then lets be fair, when Gergory was in charge the Premier League was no where near as strong.

When the Liverpool job came up, Rikjaard said there was no chance he would break his contract so can't see him doing that for us

Can you post the link for this site please?

Villa through and through.

Apparently Nicky Shorey is off to Albion, so the Albion forums seem to think. Hopefully that will be someone off the wage bill.

No Phil, it cant be a reason like that, or because of the recession, or due to the fact that we never manage to fill the ground so we can get the revenue in that we need. It's because Randy doens't trust MON with the money, however he is happy to keep him on as manager in the mean time, surely that is obvious? I would respectfully suggest that should the owner had lost trust in the manager to the extent that he is not giving him responsibility for identifying new signings then he would have removed the manager by now, or MON would have walked Apologies, I was taking the pee out of previous posters claiming that the lack of signings was down to Randy losing faith in MON.

What do you want us to do? We haven't the money to buy players, nobody has. Redknapp was saying today how nearly all clubs are on a sell to buy Policy.

We could well have asked for 24 million. As far as we have seen, Man City have only made on bid, which was 20 million. You can be pretty sure if they made another, they would let Sky Sports know about it.

Maybe the price was 25 million, which, lets be fair is good value for him. It's the press that said it was 30 million

It would make bugger all difference if he was into a 5 year deal, look at Fabragas at Arsenal and Ronaldo had 3/4 years on his deal at Man U. Unfortunately players rule in this day and age, and if they want to leave, it's just a mater of getting as much money for them as you can.

I know for a fact that we are getting more money than we did from Accorns.

FX Pro it is then. link

Ashley Young said not long after he joined Villa that his favourite position was left midfield, he was playing left midfield for Watford when he wasn't playing off the striker. He doesn't like Ash because he hasn't done well when he played for England, no, your right, it's MON's fault. ha ha.

Wolves wouldn't sell Doyle for any less that 12 million, which in my opinion is to much money. Same way we wouldn't want to sell Milner for less than double what we paid for him.

Barcelona paid £40 million plus Eto for Ibrahimavic so their offer for Fabragas is definitely a piss take. That deal for Ibrahimavic has to be one of the worst of all time

Or stupid, and Man City have proved previously that they are stupid.

England winning the World Cup over Villa getting 4th definitely. Villa winning the league, then I would chose that, but Villa finishing 4th, no chance.
