However I do think they required us to get rid of Bruce. He looks broken at the moment and he tactics if possible are getting worse than ever. I fancy Derby, Forest, WBA and Leeds to be in the mix or thereabouts this season in their push for promotion. I think we will be too providing we change the manager in due course.

I don't think the top of the table is going to be high on points this season, not like last anyway, so it may be very possible to pull a comeback off this season. After seeing bruce like this he does need to be gone, if he can't get us in the premier league, he certainly can't keep us in it let alone make a run for the title there. We need an ace of a new manager and finding that kind of guy is going to be tough. Come on owners Bruce needs to sort it or be gone cus I'm fed up and sick and tired of this crap now, I want the new guy installed asap so things can be underway, I'll even take Thierry Henry if I have too but would prefer JT.. Serious question. Why would you prefer JT as manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 My mate who’s a Leeds fan told me he hates Bruce as well. Said thinks he’s Mourihno when won f**k all. Even the non Villa fans have had enough of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I reckon he wants the sack. The owners want to sack him. The players want him gone. The compensation and finding a replacement is the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 The lack of any sustained rumour here is really frustrating. Feels like he isn't going anywhere near fast enough. Hoping it's just the way the new boys do their business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Should have been sacked after the game last night and I expect he'll still be the manager after the game Tuesday night. He's not going to turn this around and whoever is in charge at villa needs to understand that fast. One win in nine says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I’m stunned at the amount of support he gets on social media still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will most likely win on Tuesday and the cycle will continue. The owners will only make a move when it’s too late and the season is written off.

Villa facebook pages are replete with brain dead morons to be honest. Even those who want Bruce out will suggest 'bringing back Sherwood'. I guess it's a window into how thick the average football fan is. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a seriously high opinion of himself and his abilities as a manager which is bizarre given his track record. He's consistently not been good enough in the premier league and most of the fans of the club's he's managed were delighted to see him sacked. In his eyes nothing is ever his fault, he's almost like the Donald in that respect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted September 29, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted September 29, 2018 Can we afford (FFP) another failure as manager if we sack Bruce now? Anyone half-decent will want a big pay-off in case he fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll end up with a new manager trying to scramble a playoff spot. Then we'll lose in the playoffs, Grealish will leave along with all of our loan players and we are back at square one.
