DevonIsAPlaceOnEarth Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I don't have an issue with Round persee. His role is a bit hidden or unknown to most fans anyway, but the behind the scenes stuff seems to be a bit more organised and joined up over the last year. Round sounds like he is well connected within the game, but could also mean Moyes is out of the running given how Moyes was this guys boss before.

AshVilla Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Seems like a fraud to me. He talks the talk but were certainly not walking the walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been reading some of the replies to collymores tweets last night and a few Everton fans seem mystified how the hell Round got such a job at villa - , spoke to an Everton season ticket holder at work and seems Round and wyness were not too popular among fans during their time at Everton either .

AndyGray1985 Posted August 19, 2017 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 19, 2017 Round was brought in when Irvine left to become a manager and never convinced. Irvine did a much better job. My opinions on Wyness have already landed me a warning on here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came here with a very non descript job description of fluff and bluster. It's only recently that he's been asked to develop a 'Villa way' which gives his position some substance. As for Wyness: people only need to search his name on Grand Old Team and have a good look around the various threads in which he is mentioned to know there's very, very little love for him at Goodison.

sne Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Change Max Power to Aston Villa and that's pretty much where we are. "There is 3 way's to do things. The right way, the wrong way and the Aston Villa way. Isn't that just the wrong way? Yes! But faster!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next managerial appointment will be very interesting because surely they will go for somebody who emodies whatever he intends this Villa way will be.

Dom_Wren Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Lads. Plenty of people out in the professional community that can do this job! If he fails, look to Southampton. They wrote the manual on this. kvein Langan, the head coach of Uncc here in the usa. Perfect fit. But what do I know...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Can't understand how one of the brightest young thinkers in the game (sic) can sit and just let this shit show continue. Xia needs to clean house and start again with new people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of supporters could. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
