Demitri_C Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Yeah but all sides close to them barring Ipswich are losing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 11 losses in 19 games for zola. So much for the new manager bounce. They should give him next season to see if he can turn it around, and the season after that if next season goes badly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 A 3-0 + loss is a nice kick in the bolox though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relegation this year would be truly brilliant and even if we don't get into the playoffs they are still there for us, always smaller and now and again doing what we want.

I wouldn't mind them winning on Saturday to be honest, it would help us and might help keep Zola in post to finish the job next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked who they're actually playing....no way is Rowett losing to Zola at the Sty. That is a result that just will not happen (will put a fiver on as insurance ;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I listened to the phone-in on WM yesterday. Every single caller from them wanted them to sack Zola and make Paul Robinson manager, possibly aided by other senior players (?) They also plan to chant 'there's only one Gary Rowett' before kick off, so that should make an interesting atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Cannot see a SHA win this weekend, I could see them getting absolutely stuffed 5+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 If I were the club owners and GR was sacked for non-results reasons I'd leak them 24 hours before the kick off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) I can't see the club leaking "we're a bunch of morons", to be honest. Edited April 5, 2017 by Davkaus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted April 5, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 5, 2017 Is that 2 wins in 21 now for Zola? Meanwhile Rowett has 2 in 3 at Derby. Legend. Great work by their new owners... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 5, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted April 5, 2017 I can still see them beating us. We're by far the better team, the more in form team and if it was any other team we'd beat them. But we're Aston Villa and we like to make things hard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise he was sacked as he didn't sign a new contract.

There are various tales on this, wanted a new contract, wouldn't sign one, wanted more money, was flirting with clubs about other jobs.... Who knows which if any is true, it could just have been new owners wanting their own man. Whatever the reason I applaud the decision and hope they continue making such wise moves. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 My concern is as shit as they have been we go on to win all the games and then lose to them messing our chance of play offs is over and keeps them up. You know it's gonna happen typical villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
