5% Villa - Dalglish Given 3 Year Contract
« on: May 12, 2011, 02:13:49 PM »
Don't know if this has been posted anywhere else but now being reported on the Beeb that Kanny Dalglish has been given a 3-year contract at the bindippers:

Think they'll do well over the next couple of seasons now unfortunately

Fair play to him, after being out of fitba management for years he has made a big turn-around.

I wonder how we'd do with BFR back in charge.

They'll do OK, but what he's done so far is inspire them due to his legend at the club and get an extra 10-15% that Hodgson couldn't.

Unless he's given some serious money to spend they won't challenge the top 4 and are catchable by us.

Easy for Kenny to come in under no pressure knowing that CL wasn't a real possibility this season. Let's see how he gets on next season when the pressure is on to achieve Top 4

What about Clarke? Is he confirmed as well. We shouldn't underestimate his ability and worth in that asistant/coaching role.

I personally think appointing coach Steve Clarke has been the bindippers biggest success. 

as my man Chuck D once said "don't believe the hype"

King Kenny my arse !!

It does go to show the benefit of a good number 2, especially when you see how Chelsea went after Wilkins was sacked and that we've got Gary Mac.

Given he's never played or managed in this country, does anyone else think Rijkaard and Wilkins could be something of a dream team for us?

Yup. His reputation alone has given him breathing space - was never going to be under the sort of scrutiny that Hodgson was under, week after week.

They had to give it him really didn't they. A combination of decent results and the fans wanting him. If they'd have given it to someone else he wouldn't have stood a chance unless he led the league from day one. Doesn't always work out though, i remember going to an Albion game with a mate of mine once when they spent 90 minutes demanding Brian Talbot got the managers job permanently! i think they even forgot to sing about us that day.
