  1. Even a broken clock is right twice a day Incidentally villa will play Newcastle twice this season
  2. That was my initial thought, but don't think so judging by the names listed in the running.. https://m.oddschecker.com/t/football/football-specials/aston-villa/next-permanent-manager?selectionname=no
  3. According to oddschecker Pearson has taken the most money with 25% of the market. Moyes second with 19% and Sherwood third with 8%! Bruce is 4th, just behind with 7%
  4. ...and a dour team to boot Might be more adventurous with a better squad. He's not for me though, even if it would ruffle a few b'loser feathers
  5. Because it's (supposedly) easier to gauge how successful someone might be if they've have a track record of success/experience
  6. Think I've sussed the problem - We keep sacking managers BEFORE they've had chance to do a handover to their successor
  7. Oh yeah? Youve failed to mention how well ROI did this summer - even with the handicap of ciaran clarke in the squad. And we managed to offload him to newcastle, so just think what a force we'd be
  8. Because hes an ambitious manager and we have funding and ambition now to be the best in the world(!)
  9. Both sherwood and garde were set up to fail. In fact looking back at sherwoods record, with the players he had at hand, he now looks like a miracle worker. Lambert has a good history of buiding teams in lower divisions, but we hounded (dont get me wrong it was a painful time)him out when the real problem was higher up. Didnt 'eck' even get the scum promoted? There's no simple answer is there? Whoever comes in now is effectively using another mans tools to do the job, and whilst its great to have an ambitious owner, it doesnt exactly lift the pressure in helping this brand new team come together.
  10. Whatever happened to the 'Jedi-knack' appreciation club. Are refunds being issued for membership fees?
  11. Those calling for a no-nonsense manager - how about those two shouty men from Salford FC? Or Gordon Ramsey perhaps? He does have a football background I suppose. The carrot is mightier than the stick
  12. We've all overlooked the fact that there's one man who knows the club inside out, has grit and determination as well as hundreds of appearances for the club, and can lead the team to glory both on and off the field:
  13. Think Wagner has the kind of charisma Dr X will be looking for...
  14. Come back Martin Oneill/ Paul Lambert All is forgiven
  15. With numerous promotions between them, it's clear that we need to form a steve bruce, chris hughton, RDM, paul lambert 'supergroup', - much like the travelling wilberrys, or mcbusted
  16. I have conflicting emotions of pride and despair over this!
  17. "We'll win again - don't know where - dont know when. But I know we'll win again one sunny day" heres another: "draw draw draw - how do you like it, how do you like it?" Repeat ad infinitum
  18. Not sure if there's irony involved, or if it's a genuine fan club, but I've noticed a small section of the north stand sing 'Alan Hutton, Alan Hutton' to the da da da da bit in the Proclaimers '500 miles'
