Daniel Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 over ten years season ticket holder and that is the last time for me. Just can't do it anymore. I don't know how I've managed to keep going this long. Why keep going when there is 0 enjoyment in it anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Cue the usual cliched bollox on twitter from the good old Doc. He has had two managerial appointments and so far looks like he and his team have ballsed them up. Still time I know though for Bruce to turn us around. I had reservations regarding him and the team he appointed in wyness & Round. His grandiose pie in the sky plans, the lack of transparency regarding his wealth and Recon have worried me but he warranted my unwavering support. Now I'm questioning him and his abilities. Tough times need tough measures. Time will tell whether he is our saviour or another chancer. I hope it's the former.

KSV Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 He has at least done the wise thing and kept him on a rolling contract. Time to stop the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's employed 2 managers who have 5 promotions from this league and one who has won the Champions League (not all down to him, but some down to him). He's backed them both with heavy money, plenty of signings made sense on paper, Elphick lead Bournemouth up, Jedinak held Palace together, McCormack was an absolute goal machine, Hourihane is top of the assists, Lansbury is respected as a top player, West Ham wanted Hogan, I could go on and on. How can you call him a chance? He set his stall out, did what he said on the tin, made what the majority felt like decent appointments and it's still a mess. He's beyond question to me. Everything he has done has made perfect sense. The results defy logic against what he's done. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 If you'd said at the start of the season we'd have a tough start but then we'd get Steve Bruce in and spend heavily on well regarded players, and that Kodjia would become a fairly prolific scorer, i'd assume we were right in the thick of the promotion race. Dr Tony has done everything we could have possibly asked for when we were in the depths of despair under Lerner. He's absolutely faultless in this IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from appointing RDM which was simply a terrible decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted February 15, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 15, 2017 Was it 1 win in 10 before RDM got the chop? If so, Bruce has gone 8 without a win... so lose the next one and he's out the door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 A man who is as deluded as he is enthusiastic. At the end of the day, if you're ranting to Stan colly more on twitter you don't have the required focus on your multi million pound business. Ridiculously unrealistic goals being abysmally executed.

pacbuddies Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 No more British managers please. Their methods are so antiquated. We need to find the next Pottechino, Koeman, Klopp. These types of manager are out there we just need to scout the world. I know some of you will refer to Garde as a not so good example but he was shit on by Lerner and his cronies and never stood a chance. You only have to look at the Premier League to see how poorly British managers are doing compared to their foreign counterparts. Even in the Championship we have successful foreign managers at the top. The likes of Bruce, Lambert, Warnock, Holloway, McCarthy, Pulis, Allardyce (shall I go on) are never going to have any success and we need to break out of the cycle of turgid negative football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd find it hard to have a pop at a man who has backed us to the hilt however i think he's being a bit naive and hopefully he'll learn. From his first interview when he bought us and was asked how much we'd have to spend, replying "30, 40, 50 million." Showed his hand straight away. Just say there will be funds available to the manager. Clubs knew it was a chance to take villa to the cleaners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
