My bar for being Manager of AV is whether or not I feel they are or will be a good match for us. I believe Lampard will go on to become a great Manager and I think he could have done a good job for us yes (I believe we'll see this with Derby this season). I do not believe Henry will go on to become a great Manager and I think he would have been a disaster for us in our current state. This is going off topic so let's leave it there and agree to disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Impossible job now, another average job done and another club he won't last a year. He's an absolute tit to jump into that job, and his CV is already looking a shambles. Will be managing alongside Phil Brown in a no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd have asked me 6 weeks ago, I'd have told you that i would have wanted St Andrews turned into a giant Aldi. But the fecking stress us lot (villa fans) have gone through in the last few weeks kinda makes me think 'i wouldn't wish this on anyone'. That said, it is small heath so I'll make an exception Nah mate, when we were in the shit they couldn't contain their screeches of delight. They were creaming themselves at the thought of us going under. It was all their sordid dreams come true. As a result of that... **** 'em! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Quote Is it being too optimistic to aim for automatic next season, are play offs more realistic? Quote In all seriousness, i hope this now is THE turning point. Monk has brought us hope once more, and i reckon he could eclipse Rowett, especially with the backroom staff he's got. I'm not sure i could take another couple of seasons like we have just had. To add to DMC's prediction, I'm going to say we make it to the play offs. Quote I think all serious plans need to be three years or so. To go up in his first 'full' year would be great but unrealistic. Let him start to build. I'll accept midtable next season. A real stab at playoffs and - if that hasn't succeeded - top two the season after Quote Play off winners next year http://www.joysandsorrows.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16028 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Nah likes of Ipswich, Bolton and Rotherham will be much worse. Reading also being tipped for drop in a few predictions (FourFourTwo mag had them 24th in their prediction mag). Worth remembering Monk actually found a role for Jota to play well and Che Adams is a decent striker if he can stay fit. Their problem is they have nothing beyond first 11 apart from kids. Remember loans like Boga and Sam Gallagher who played a fair bit last season haven't been replaced so there's no depth in most areas. Think David Davis also broke his leg in pre season so their midfield also looking weak as means Gardner will start most games now and he was hopeless last season. 14-18th.
