Wrong on so many levels.....

When i was younger at school we had a teacher called Ray Pugh

Just lumped £100 on Ancelotti on William Hill at 33-1

Who on earth is Brendan Rogers

Swansea boss

I'm warming to the idea of Houllier coming in now. Not too sure about Thompson, but they did work well together before

I think i've just talked myself into believing that now!

Yeah, i've got a feeling it won't be much longer

Spurs are going to sign van der vaart

I dont think there is a lot of money being bet on the new Villa manager at the moment, so any £100-£200 bets will drastically move the odds in my opinion.

Someone should put this theory to the test by putting a couple of hundred on Dion Dublin as next boss

I'm thinking Alex McLeish....he'd get linched by the Blue noses though.

Nah, he said a decent job

Has Paul Scharner got himself a club yet?

He'd be a quality addition for a free transfer

don't want to drop names but from what i understand villa are pressing hard for a manager who's currently in a fairly decent job (in the uk)"

Who on earth is this guy?

Makes it seem like Moyes, but I really don't want to get my hopes up, because if he did come it would surely be with the promise of significant investment. I believe we would make the top 4 within 3 seasons if we could get Moyes.

Definitely makes it sound like Moyes. Plus as you said, the only real chance of getting him IMO is by giving him a fair bit of money to spend

I'd love this to be true

I guess the silver lining in this loss is that the board will surely see this as a priority and make the moves needed to have a man in place this week.

Watching senior players like Warnock, Petrov and hell even Dunne play so poorly and perhaps even like they did not give a shit was a very worrying sign.

I hope you're right with that. I'd just like to here something official from the club regarding how the manager search is actually going!
