jim Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I really hope it isn’t Wilder or Smith. Either of them will be a bigger flop thank Grealish’s hair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now it looks like Faria is about to join them - he was as big as 33/1 just four hours ago. Just goes to show that the bookies' odds are worth ignoring completely. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty uncanny actually, like he already knows... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could not agree more - we've just gotten rid of one yesterday's man, surely the club would not take us down the same path twice - would they ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless one is looking to possibly make/probably lose money, I see no benefit in referencing betting odds in relation to potential Villa managers. Many of the recent pages of this thread seem to indicate I’m in a minority. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you’re not necessarily in the minority, but your odds are slipping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
privateer Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) I'm going to clean up in a big way here. I've just bet the farm on the DOF/Head Coach double announcement having become privy to some inside info and all the names mentioned are waaaay off. Edens has prevailed over Sawiris and persuaded him to go American, enthusiasm and solidity over sexy football. It's Bruce Arena as DOF and Bob Bradley as Head Coach. Imma trading the farm for Blenheim Palace. Edited October 5, 2018 by privateer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chips'ngravy Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I'd be worried if we appointed Faria. A bloke who's shown no ambition to be anything other than Mourinho's assistant for the past 16 years suddenly decides he fancies a crack at being number one himself. Can't think of any examples where this scenario has ended well. All feels a bit Di Matteo in the risk stakes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy taking on a massive job like AVFC as his first flight? I fear it will prove to be just a bridge too faria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
