screwdriver Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 maybe rangers rise will unlock the door to get Brendan Rodgers. He's done all he can at Celtic, he can leave with his reputation intact. Loosing out on McGinn must have been a big wake up call to how players see where clubs are in the hierarchy of British football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loosing out on McGinn must have been a big wake up call to how players see where clubs are in the hierarchy of British football. Brendan Rodgers would also be my choice. Is he gettable though considering would he take a job in the Championship and could Villa afford the compensation payment to Celtic with FFP in mind? You would also have to factor in settlement with Bruce and his, eh, coaching team? Personally I feel with a bit of financial wizardry and the deep pockets of Villa’s new owners Rodgers could be enticed to Villa Park but it would have to be soon before Bruce does any further damage to Villa’s promotion hopes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwdriver Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 It would be a tough deal to get over the line especially in the middle of a season. Poaching the celtic manager would be a massive statement of intent. They can have Paul Lambert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 no it isn't. big sam can **** off. utterly pointless appointment, I'd rather stumble along with Bruce in charge and wait for a proper appointment. Change is absolutely needed, but not for some corrupt anti footballing prat such as Samuel Allardyce 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I wouldn’t want Allardyce either, but he’s a much, much, much better manager than Steve Bruce and if given the choice right now I’d carry Big Sam to VP on my own (already injured) back. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H e's signed a contract to take him up until then and I think that Rodgers ego will keep him there for that. Conversely, I think his ego is also big enough that he would think that he could turn us around and make us a serious PL team.

Rodders Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I think I would just prefer Bruce go and we have an interim internal appointment until we find a proper replacement rather than pay wages on someone like Allardyce who wouldn't be cheap, and another short term measure 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Please not Allardyce or Moyes. We need to move with the times and look outside of this country for an up and coming manager who knows how to play entertaining football and has the tactical ability to change formations in-game depending on the situation. I don't want another one dimensional manager who will just try to shoehorn players in to the team to fit the way he wants to play, regardless of their strengths. A good example of this is Bruce's terrible plan to bring in Hogan but play as if he is a target man. Utter shite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next appointment needs give us a completely new direction regarding our identity, style and gameplan. Although SA is a fan of technology he still produces turgid, stale football with inconsistent, ground-out results......ring any bells?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 If we hired big Sam I would chuck my season card into the **** bin. No joke. No hyperbole. I would not attend. Plays the shittest football in the country and has an ego even bigger than Bruce. I couldn't bare the press conferences, nevermind the football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 64 year old Sam Allardyce .... low win ratio .... high draw ratio .... plenty of losses, and a huge back room staff. We would be better organised, but still playing "yesterday's" football. That would be a NO from me! We need to plan for the future, and if we need someone to fill in for a few months to give Purslow time to make the right appointment, then Oscar Garcia is used to working for months rather than years in a job. He could be a temporary fix as he's currently available. Bruce said a few weeks ago that he believed "NOBODY" could do the Villa job better than him, and for once I agree with him. Sack Bruce even if we bring in "nobody" (it would be an improvement). Put Steve Agnew and Mark Delaney in temporary charge. Bruce's continued stubborn bumbling is damaging us! Bruce Out! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Sorry but when it comes to Dinosaurs, Sam Allardyce is a T-Rex and Bruce is a Brontosaurus in a fight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
