Dr_Pangloss Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) I find West Brom fans fairly odd, they hate us more than we hate them and are really quite obsessed with us. Very similar to Coventry fans in that respect. You can hear 'shit on the Villa' often at the Hawthrons but we never feel the need to chant about them.

AshVilla Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I'm still not sure what their thinking was behind sacking Darren Moore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted June 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 4, 2019 Oh dear oh dear. Looks like no Rodriguez as well as no Gayle for Baggies next season. Such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 According to Alan Nixon none of their managerial targets fancy the job...........they could be down there for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sign him, everyone loves a villain to hero tale. Good option, hard worker, holds the ball up well, gets fair few goals, proper shithouse at times who gives zero **** how he comes across as long as he wins. Spoiler He'll be off to Burnley no doubt though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Hilarious. I think even Small Heath will do better than them next season. Awful average age in their team, high wages, little to spend and no decent manager looking to take over. Recipe for disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Moore was sacked 3 months ago this weekend, really was a shocker with no backup plan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Wonder how Johnstone feels? If the takeover went quicker, I think Johnstone would have saved for us instead. Didn't blame him for choosing West Brom at the time since we looked like we'd go to administration, but if things went a little quicker, Sam likely would have been our keeper.

Zatman Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Johnstone would be 3rd choice keeper at Villa behind Steer and Kalinic. He misses us more than we miss him 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Where is the money going/gone? They made money in the prem, the odd big money transfer aside they were built on shrewd signings, now they are skint even with parachute payments so can't afford the manager they want? Laughable from the pride of the Midlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it to Shan permanently and hope? Admittedly I didn’t watch many Baggies games, so no idea what the football was like under Moore. But until the next bizarre dismissal, the sacking of Moore will be the benchmark for mental decisions, certainly at this level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Pretty much would have been like us sacking Bruce last season after we fell from 2nd to 5th. Made no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew, who was a panic replacement for Pulis because they had no backup plan. Presumably, I cant believe any sane person would plan for Pardew. A team with genuine premier league players in it dragged down by incompetent management and manager selection. Shambles. Love it me.

Anyone else, and I'd assume it was a joke, but this is the guy that thinks he can take other peoples' dinner because he's "the king". One of the biggest words removed in football. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
