StewieGriffin Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Spoke to my dad this evening - Steve Bruce drinks in a local near where my dad works (Dorridge) and his solicitor is a regular client in my dad's place and he was in today - said whilst Bruce was at Hull he'd have "walked to Villa Park from the KC Stadium for an interview" and that he "wouldn't be surprised if he was there by Christmas if Di Matteo has a bad start" Not even claiming ITK, but thought Id pass it on. Plus it means I can break out my "Steve Bruce once bought me a bag of compost" story if anyone cares enough 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 After much thought i don't want Sean Dyche. Reason being, if rumours are to be believed he was interested in Westwood for 6 mill. Even if the rumours were just rumours, its not worth the risk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted October 4, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted October 4, 2016 I am going to say something that's a bit out there but please hear me out. I have come to this conclusion after reading literally dozens on posts on this thread about this subject. What I have to say is this - maybe we should consider not singing the Tony Xia went to x in an x car song. There, I've said it. It's radical I know and I realise this would only leave us with just the one song, but it may just open us up to a whole new range of managers whose names don't rhyme with cars. If this offends anyone I can only apologise but I think it needs to be said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His name was Lescott. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Here's an idea, let's look forward and choose a new manager, instead of picking one that in one way or another has contributed to our demise over the last six years! No Martin O'Neill, no to Paul Lambert, and a big HELL NO to Timmy Sherwood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Right it looks like Bruce is odds on. Now I know this market can be moved easily but RDM, Garde and Sherwood were all the only manager's that becomes odds on before being appointed. That said OGS become odds on before we appointed Lambert. I want Wagner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year's Solksjaer. A left field idea that seems more alluring as the idea sinks in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Darren but that's rubbish. Solksjaer was never top of the championship like Wagner has. Only success he has was at molde when he rejected us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted October 4, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted October 4, 2016 I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of blue noses voted for Tim in the Mail poll just for a laugh... They really are obsessed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
