ciggiesnbeer Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 He maybe good with the kids (I have no idea) but he is a terrible first team manager, interim or not. Happily I expect him to manage us for 2 or three games max and to his credit that is also his expectation so I am right behind him and hope he does well.

KMitch Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) I still prefer to remember K-Mac as our Manager during this game... Swashbuckling attacking football, gave Clark & Albrighton their first starts for the club, and a great send off to Jimmy Milner... I also tend to forget the follow up to this game... (The 0-6 Trashing to Newcastle & Ireland's first appearance...) Edited October 4, 2018 by KMitch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm glad we lost as people were talking about giving it to him full time. That would have been a disaster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been a disaster Yes, appointing K Mac could have led to the start of a decline that would see us circling the drain and eventually relegated from the Premier League for the first time.

Hornso Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Was the last games K Mac managed Southampton in the League Cup & Tottenham in the league during 15/16? It was the one period in my life where I got to see the Villa play live and after seeing Sherwood's last game against Swansea, I travelled for both those games hoping for more logical line ups only to be equally confused by his approach. Looking forward to seeing how he approaches Saturday regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted October 5, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2018 I’m looking forward to his press conference. He will probably tell us how fantastic Bruce was, and it’s a shame he’s gone. That’s his normal rhetoric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was our first holiday together and I’d scoured the small town of Helston to find a pub with the game on. From the penalty miss onwards it was a nightmare!

Kingman Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Wonder if he will do the logical thing and play players in the correct positions? With Chester out, Have we any decent CB's in the U23's that could do a job on Saturday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck certainly wasn't on our side that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Half decent at youth level, simply put, a man who knows his place in life, hopefully the only time he's in our dugout this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Didn't KMac sort of flame out a while back? Surprised he's still around the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 A steady pair of hands, he can always be relied on to bring us in his usual zero points. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyjavfc Posted October 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) Can’t blame KMac, he picked a team that Steve Bruce would have picked which is logical given that they will have been drilled in that system and he only had a few days taking training. The new man will need time to unpick Bruce’s ‘tactics’ and instill a new way of playing. Edited October 6, 2018 by mikeyjavfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
