wiggyrichard Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I layed bradley as well a while ago. Seemed like a no brainer TBH, he was just whoring himself out for the job. Is this your new thing Pompey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulver Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 It comes to something when we're all picking our fave candidate on a 'well he's better than the other shit options' basis What happened to that bright future we were sold once upon a time ?

uncy_chris Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Whoever we pick will have their flaws. We've just gotta get on with it, because at the moment we're a rudderless ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 What happened to that bright future we were sold once upon a time ? Things change. We wont bully another club for their manager unless they are willing to let them go. Meaning we're short on candidates. Randy has always tried to do his best when it comes to Villa and this appointment will be no different. There are no guarantees with any manager but the one we're given will be Randy's choice and who he thinks can continue to take Villa forward.

Reality Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Nice little Villa. Won't "bully" another club. Yet, we constantly allow other clubs to bully us into selling players etc. Its time this club decided to stand up for itself and stick two fingers up to other clubs.

Yes that means they will all come and want to be Villa manager! You want our owners to do things like City and that tit Cook? You we're slagging him off in the Milner thread if i recall correctly.

Woodytom Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I didnt realise the future wasnt bright. Ok, when it comes to big announcements/signings etc we are so dull as a club its unreal. But that doesnt mean to say the future isnt bright. Whats it based on that the futures not bright? The last few weeks? In that case, I think its worth mentioning that last time i looked, we were 4th in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same happens in business all the time It is called head hunting This bollox about the club being too honourable and not wanting to employ a manager "who only wants to come for more money" is just that, bollox. In life f you pay peanuts you'll get monkeys and generally people earn more money because they are better at their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say that would make them come and be Villa manager? I'm sick to the back teeth of having us pushed around by other clubs. No, I don't want them to act like Cook, but I want them to become more strict and ruthless with other clubs. You think other clubs wouldn't do it to us given half the chance? Of course they would. We should return the favour when given the opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it doesnt matter after 3 games. Although id rather be 4th than bottom. My point was that just because we are going through a phase of transition, it doesnt mean that its all doom and gloom. Just because it doesnt look like were getting the manager we prefer it doesnt mean the futures not bright. The thought of Curbishley makes my skin crawl, but I (while i think i do) no absolutely buggar all about it. He may be an absolute revelation!!!

Neil Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 We also could have won 3-0 Sunday too. Everton didn't have that many great shots on goal....How many did Friedel have to save? This is what I keep saying to people, so many comments about how "lucky" we were and some everton fans saying we should be ashamed to win like that after game. Luck to me is when a clear cut chance doesn't go in, though the way we played we didn't give them the option of clear cut chances to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should return the favour when given the opportunity. You cannot have it both ways though. Either you want our club to be run properly or you want it to be run like City and Cook would be, screwing over everyone in sight. I dont care what other clubs do or dont do, is a good thing that Villa are one of the few clubs around who do things the proper way and are respected in the game because of it imo. For all people know it might cost more money to do it the proper way than just throwing cash at another club and pissing everyone off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I am not talking about running our club like City, spending buckets of cash. Ie, go for Moyes. **** Everton, or what they think. Other clubs would easily do it to us. They've tried to take our best players. Played little mind games in the press etc and all that bullshit. Its time we did it as well. What is the "proper" way? Because I see other clubs screwing each other all the time. And "who" actually cares about this "proper" way? Respect from who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
