Risso Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 If David O'Leary doesn't shape up soon, the order of managers on the poll above is how I'd rate them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJRM050389 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Brian Little, FA Cup Semi and LC Winners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risso Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Ron for me. Closest we've coming to winning the title in years, and a great league cup win, plus some outstanding goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis_B Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Gregory for me...... he was stopped (guess by who?) just at the point he could have done something. But BL a very,very close second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tricella Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Its gotta be Big Ron!! :shock: He had football within him and I really enjoyed his time at the manager post! Brian Little was too much into defensive display for my liking. He was good too of course..but not the same league as Ron Atkinson. I liked John Gregory too...but mostly because of his attitude towards life and football. A funny guy that did much for Villa...but wont be noticed for that. If given the same opportunity as the men above, David O´Leary will be a hero and a true Villa legend. Theres only one man in the way...and its sadly enough our chairman Doug Ellis.

Guest RantinRob Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Sir Brian for me, just ahead of JG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfcinwales Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I'm sure most will go for Brian Little for obvios reasons, but a Premiership manager he's not. O'leary for me which will surprise some, although BFR was a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villafan306 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 DOL has had so many financial restrictions that what he has done with Villa is greater than the others - if he had less restrictions we would be in the Champions League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis_B Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I would like to be able to compare JG with DOL....... but DOL will never get the cash off smellpants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Big Ron. Best Villa side ive seen, and in 92/93 (belive it or not young uns) we were actually "the entertainers" playing the most attractive football in the league. Also put some silverware on the table, with a tactical masterclass, finding a way to beat a Manchester United side who were massively superior on a man to man basis.
