Ulver Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 He's ever right to be furious. With himself and the board and the players It's been a shambles from top to bottom. He's just the captain of the ship. He's been woeful, but so have the ships owners and the ships staff He's got to go The vast majority of the senior players have got to go Randy, if he can't fund the massive makeover needed has got to go We have a good set of young talent on the books. But they arent world beaters or top class. At the very least we need experienced centre backs x 2, central midfielders x 2, wingers x at least 1, sriker x at least 1. And that's without mentioning the full back disaster zone Apart from the homegrown lot. The only ones we've 100% got to keep are Given, Bent, Ireland and maybe N'Zogbia (if, and only if we get a footballing manager and not a dinosaur in charge) A piss poor situation in any teams books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Not so sure about Ireland. He's played well but I don't think he justifies the huge wage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Bent has stated on Twitter that he will be here next season, and also said he didn't refuse to be on the bench because he wasn't asked to be on the bench in the first place (sly dig at McCunt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Should say "To the new employer: the sympathies of all Villa fans are with you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 Can't believe anyone associated with the club cannot see that this season has been anything other than a shambles. For the manager to now try and paint merely stopping up as a success goes against everything we were told about the club earlier in the season. Expectations were 4th or 5th, or pushing for Europe. So either Mcleish has failed , badly, or he has achieved what the owner really wanted. Either way it is a disgrace. Faith rovers is about his level. I cannot believe that this is now what the sum total of the owner's aspirations for the club are, to merely survive in the division. If they are then he must go too and I cannot believe any fan would defend that. If these are not the aspirations then the manager has to go. I heard him on the radio today saying that the fans expectations had to change, that we had to realise that this was not the 1982 squad anymore, how **** patronising. No one expects us to win the league or even a cup anymore. But we do expect the club to be competitive, to do more than just stay up each season. If that is what we have now become then it is not the bright future I was sold. Mcleish out. Lerner out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Next manager odds are in from Victor Chandler and Stan James: Martinez is 2/1, Lambert 3/1, Neil Lennon 10/1, Curbishley 12/1, and for some odd reason Ole Gunnar Solksjaer is 14/1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
