Kev Mc defends MON

[Small Rodent]

Defending a man who left the club in a total mess is ridiculous.

Nice you think of MacDonald that way.

You're putting a spin on what I said.

Okay then fans are ridiculous for defending MON, but Macdonald isn't?

[Rip Van We Go Again]

It's a sad state of affairs that people actually think MON timed his departure to cause maximum disruption.

If you're saying otherwise, then you're clearly taking the piss.

'Nice you think of McDonald in this way'.

I think the headline is a bit sensational to be honest.

Kev wasn't defending MO'Runner, more so, explaining that he was phoned by him with his best wishes.

No, I am not in favour of Kev being our new permanent Manager, but I have no reason, inc that article, to dislike him.

Go away Kmac.. Thanks

Did you once have a shirt with "Ellis 666" on the back?

Diana was murdered by MI6 on the orders of the Duke of Edinburgh and Elvis never died having a shit.

I think you're seeing what you want to see. He specifically says that he doesn't believe that it was done to casue disruption.

“From my point of view I have got to ask the question why would he deliberately do that? I can’t see it – it’s just my own thoughts.

Given that he's far, far closer to the situation than anyone on here I think it should be taken notice of.

Show some respect, he'll be around longer than temperamental lightweights like you.

i dont show respect for managers who throw tournaments....

....and he'll be long gone and i'll be still a villa fan, its your comment that is disrespectful to a villa fan.

He should. And so should others closer to the situation than we are.

See what you mean now. Sorry.

One thing O'Neill wasn't was politically naive.

Leaving Villa 5 days before kickoff was not the act of a man who had the slightest interest in the good will of the club. Whether KM thinks that or not, whether he's suddenly become an authority and close bosom friend of O'Neill matters not. Leaving the club when he did has left us in disarray, leaving at the end of May would have made the selection of his successor far more profitable to the club.

Secondly, why I should give any more respect to a friend of Mon than a past admirer of Mon, or Mon, I have no idea, especially when all he is doing is passing via the media a well thought out and preplanned statement.
Its only slightly more reliable than ITK revelations 'leaked' to gullible parties, I'd suggest.

In time Randy will reveal his choice amidst much explanation and spin. Until then all speculation is pointless as is the continued lame attempts to take some of the shame off the manner of the previous managers exit.

[jonzy85]

I think people have to remember, that by leaving when he did, MON did himself no favours. He would be entitled to zero pay-off. No jobs around at the moment. Most likely wont be until next summer.

Now I'm sure he is not short a few bob, but this idea of his grand master plan to f*** up Villa is ridiculous.

Rightly or wrongly, he left because he didnt feel he could work with the board/owner/Faulkner, the reasons for which obviously came to a head around that weekend.

Sure, be angry/disappointed for not sticking out the season with the squad he had built...but the conspiracy theories are laughable and based on nothing.

Moon landing in a Hollywood basement...now we're talking!

Why do you think it is you get so little respect?

Pack it in please.
