Time for Randy to call our saviour........Big Sam!

Well done on Houllier, General, good choice. Might not be the biggest name, but we could have done a lot worse. Here's to a bright future with exciting football, and a manager prepared to look abroad for signings (hopefully).

Oh God I hope this doesn't mean Phil Thompson will get a job down the Villa. Imagine his big nose on the touch line. :-(

He wouldn't be able to bring himself to play against his beloved Liverpool.

Kind of a middle of the road appointment for me. There were a lot worse candidates, and some better. But I'm happy to give him a chance. Hopefully he will use his knowledge to sign some bargain French youngsters. Welcome Gerard.

Joint managers - it will never work. Houllier will have my full support if he is manager ALONE - not if it's a joint venture.

No one will care about the style of play if it's successful..if Houllier manages to win us a cup or get top 4, I won't care if it's the most boring football on the planet.

I just want a manager that knows what he is doing and can lead us into the top 4 (I don,t think it will be this season though)

bottlers. same shit, different season

STH - Holte End

We are going to get such a mauling - I think the result might be even worse than last season. Carlos Cuellar is our only fit centre back FFS. I'd be satisfied with anything less than a 3 goal defeat. Oh, how times change...

What's going on at our great club General? We are a shadow of the team we were 12 months ago, and whilst this isn't all MON's fault (Laursen retiring), he must take some of the blame. No one made him sell Barry at the start of the transfer window. Why didn't we sign a replacement before letting him go? We seem to be the only team in the country that lets players go without having replacements signed (or on the brink of signing) i.e. Zat Knight - still can't believe we don't have a replacement for him or Laursen. We are fast becoming a joke. We often sign over priced English 'duds' - do we actually scout abroad at all?? We play some of the most boring football I have seen in years - it was boring when we were on that great run last season - we just got VERY lucky in a number of games. We have a paper thin squad and it seems half of the first team have fallen out with MON. So quite a simple question really - what is going on????

How else are the fans supposed to get their feelings across?

No, I'm looking forward to seeing how we play without him. He values money over his career, so he can f*** off!

It's only a friendly - the result doesn't matter, it's all about fitness.

Yes

Hi General,

Hope you are well.

I know this is nothing to do with Villa, but we ended up missing today's match because for no apparent reason our train was cancelled without notice. Would Villa look into running a coach from the Cannock area, because this isn't the first time the train has been late/cancelled?

Thanks

Hi General

I have a season ticket and had to miss the match because the train was cancelled (again)I would definately use an AV bus.
