This was for me a massive board mistake as it was up to them to sign his contract

Does anyone else feel that downing going shows lack of ambition from the board??

Has to be sold for a min £20M to show that we still have ambition, then we need to buy a couple of big name players. If we keep him hopefully we can show some ambition that we want to challenge for europe, but to be far to Downing he must be thinking am i going to play in europe again if i stay or even challenge.

Just on the mcleish being ex-blues i feel thats a bit part thing to the argument like most fans have been saying it is mostly due to his poor record. But to be far to Mcleish this is a maasive club to come to so he is hardly going to reject it is he main blame has to go to randy and faulkner (failer)

Id take a manager like rijkaard or Poyet as they try to play nice football and for me Poyet is a talented manager

Best not be Mcleish he will take us back to the dark ages how could it be randy i will lose total faith in you if you appoint Mcleish Hopefully mcleish will go to everton and moyes to us but if mcleish comes to us randy has lost my backing and must sell up. I have full faith that randy would never do this to the fans as this would be like getting the black spot in the pirate days as relegation would be round the corner with Mcleish

Alex Mcleish what they hell are the press thinking off this will never happen Aston Villa will never take a sha manager he won the carling cup by a fluke and then got the relegated plus he hardly gets teams scoring. If there is any ounce of truth in the story all you need to know Lerner is to do the same you did with Mclaren and send him packing.

Proper shout here Gus Poyet??? Got Brighton playing great football in LEAGUE ONE, i feel he is a talented manager that we should go for.

Wasn't Klinsmann rumoured last time we went for a manager

Anybody think he might be going after a young talented manager now???

Id never take MON back and don't rate Hughes why dont we make a new thread without moyes in the voting poll so we can actually find a realistic person the fans want

I just read that Grayson is joint fav with McLeish but we can rule Mcleish out as randy don't want to rattle the fans. But with the grayson thing this looks like he is possible ditching the prem experience for young talented managers

Okay guys after the evidence you have shown me i retract my statement about Rijkaard only worry was his record at Galatasary as he does play good footie

Got Boring bolton playing some good football??? Plus if you going on trophies what has half of that list done

Claudio Raneri????

Hughes Is now the fav

Didn't think it would come to this but im putting my name inthe hat CV Won the FA cup with villa on FM2007 Won the Quadruple with Celtic on FM2010

Major shout Martin Laursen and Ian taylor as assistant

Defo should have gave it stephen ireland

When we were going down he was staying now we are up he wants to go. Whenever we give a player player of the year they go, the curse of player of the year.

We definatly need something from the european fans to get a better atmosphere at villa if not the poznan thing

Not the whole stadium though

Think we should do this looks quality
