Pilchard Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 morning press briefing postponed Kevin Mac must have given the players more time off. Poor loves, they need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Interesting how they can postpone a press briefing. They have to do it at some point under the contract from the premier league. That Villa Insider twitter is clearly bollocks as well, never says anything that anyone doesn't already know, just dressed up to seem more exciting.

roadoftrinity Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 For manager I would have Paul Lambert, we haven't got jack shit money to spend so might as well go for a young up and coming manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulver Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Mac's aftermatch interview last night was grim listening. Sounded like a man without a clue. Sounded almost at ease with the defeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all already knew about the press conference today being cancelled? Ianrobbo posting lots of speculation about Hitzfeld too today though. Apparently several sightings in Brum yesterday. As Jez says, probably all balls but there was even a suggestion of Hitzfeld and DOF with Bradley as coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hitzfeld was at VP, do you not think that he'd have been picked up on the cameras that were constantly pointing at the empty directors bax when they showed Lerner's reaction?

Richard Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Well one thing is for sureMacdonald can no longer be seen as the cheap option. With league placings at stake and euro qualification I think he has the potential to cost us a bloody fortune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchard Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Who said he was at the game? So he becomes manager, is in Birmingham but doesn't go to the game? You are having a laugh. Anything Ian Robathan says is pure and utter bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Meh, with KMac in charge watch Cahill have a field day with our 'defence' on Sunday. Bet you next months wages he cheats his way to having a field day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything Ian Robathan says is pure and utter bollocks. Robathan hasn't actually said anything - he's seemingly as sceptical as anyone; all the Hitzfeld chat on his blog has come from other people.

RA19 Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Makes me nervous when I see pictures of Paul Faulkner sitting next to Lerner. He looks like he's just received his GCSE results & seems to spend more time looking at his master for approval than the game! No wonder MON didn't like being told what to do by some jumped up kid as Randy's lap dog!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to compete at this level on the cheap just is'nt viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxVillan Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Maybe Hitzfeld was in hidden away in a box somewhere, you know how Randy works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Interesting that Paddy Power has also removed their page on the next Villa manager. All bookmakers (except Ladbrokes IIRC) do it overnight. Probably so they don't get caught out by overnight news when there's no-one to update the odds etc. Ah. Thought as much. Was hoping that wouldn't be the case. After this week, a fan can dream. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramme Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I would have thought that putting a potential managerial appointment out in full view of TV cameras would be an exceptionally silly thing to do. Villa Park last night is the last place I would have expected to see Hitzfeld (or Bradley or Klinsmann or anyone, for that matter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
