This bozo in my opinion has not got a scooby doo! I read him in the evening mail and the mercury, listen to him on talksport pontificating to Alan Brazil and with the slight inside knowledge that i have at the club, i think i know more than him!
there is not 1 villa fan who wants Mccleish and at a time when the owners need to unite the club, this would be highly unlikely!
Mods, can you put a poll up, mat kendrick, knows eck all or in the ecking thick of it with us?

Tool rule

He broke GH leaving, didn't he?
His positive credits are starting to run low, however.

That song had me skipping around my room like a newborn lamb. I echo its cheery sentiments.
-
If Mcleish goes from Blues to Villa under their noses and they didn't have a Scooby Doo, Kendrick and Tattum aren't quite Woodward and Bernstein are they?
-
Thanks, nicardinho.
My therapist has told me to spread happiness when the opportunity arises.
-
I don't see how he's a tool for failing to work out McLeish was going to Villa if nobody at Villa leaked it.
Do you expect him to tap their phones? He's not a Sun journalist!
-
Only really come across him when he tweets so can't really comment. Always seemed ok to me.
So I suppose i've just sort of commented!
-
He writes in H&V.
On Twiitter, he appears a bit of a twit.
-
Serves you right for listening to Talkshite.
-
Does Kendrick think its Mcliesh now? I put 20 quid on Mr. X after reading his last article.
The c*nt.
-
He writes in H&V.
Does he? Where?
-
He used to, many years ago.
-
Never like any Evening Mail journalist apart from Rob Bishop. Why can't a Villa fan write the articles.

You mean the sort of journalist who started his writing career in a Villa fanzine and has been going to Villa Park since he was about eight?
-
If I wait long enough I might Read something positive on here. Does everyone have to be a tool, a crap player or useless manager? It's the way it seems-what has the guy done wrong?It seems nobody knows what's going on at the moment

He's not doing exactly what someone wants him to do. Therefore he's wrong.
-
You have to have some sympathy for him. He's covering a club who are fanatical about secrecy, with an editor who will insist he writes something, for a set of fans who will then rip everything he says apart. At least he's not spending half his time on penning snidey digs like Baggie Bill.

Thanks - now I understand the rules!
-
Well he splashed the Mcleish thing all over the Mercury today. Front & back page.
-
It must be fucking impossible to do his job with a chairman who never has any cointact whatsoever with the media. I feel sorry for him.
I think I've only ever heard Randy's voice once, some interview done on an NFL training field in the run up to the take over.
Reminds me of the way the Japanese people heard the Emperor's voice for the first time when they capitulated in 1945, and almost all of them refused to believe it was really him.
-
Guys he's just a journalsit, no more "in the know" than the tea lady, turnstile bloke or ticket monkey!
Plus I've heard it said he's on holiday this weekend, bad timing I know, but we're all entitled to 28 days?
I have no bias here, I met him, he has opinions, he was mugged off by O'Neill BIG time, as were many/all, therefore if he knows something I think he would tell us.
Sadly that adds up to chillax, we'll find out when the owner is ready!
-
Perhaps, if journalists reported stories in the manner they are given from the club, instead of putting their own spin on it, Villa would be more trusting. I also think Villa are slightly open to negativity, simply because they won't play the game. Thats why the media love rentagob Harry. That said, I like the professionalism of Villa.

Every reporter who covers Villa or any other club has a lot more contacts than you'd imagine. It is, after all, their job.

Exactly, that's why I think you're keeping quiet because you know more than the rest of us ;)

I can honestly put my hand on my heart and say I haven't got a clue what's going on. The stuff I've heard in the last twelve hours, I wouldn't be surprised if Jo Venglos came back.
-
I thought you write for the Sunday Mercury Dave?
They released a story last night that Eck was coming to us, then out of the blue Eck resigns today.
I am very suspicious...

Ye same as the NOTW also reporting that "Mcleish has emerged as the no1 target to take over at Aston Villa" This is written Saturday evening. So Mat Kendrick Aston Villa reporter is not doing a very good job. Possible replacement for Kendrick ? Contact: Andy Dunn at NOTW. He will probably know before Kendrick when he is going to be replaced ............
-
Kendrick seems to do a decent enough job considering the limited material he has to work with.
Especially compared to some of the journos at the nationals.

Jo Venglos is coming back ? Has the media picked up on this yet ?
-

As Dave Woodhall has just stated. "Every journo will have more contacts than you can imagine. After all thats there job." So if he is the Aston Villa reporter for the Birmingham Evening Mail and journalists from other papers are ahead of him. "decent" = not very good .........
-
If as MM says that only two people in Villa Park know what is going on, and Kendrick would usually be the next to know, and there is no new information that Kendrick has but everyone else is running a story his editor would make him run that story too, just in case it winds up to be true.
-
I usually read and listen to Matt Kendrick and he his usually in the know with what he says.

I've tossed some insults around on this site and many at DW, but that sort of accusation is beyond the pale.
I'd rather be accused of interfering with livestock.
-
He seems like a decent enough bloke to me, from what I've been able to read of the stuff he writes.
-
some great opinions on here, i suppose he is feeding on scraps. i dont know how the mercury can have ecks appointment on the front and back pages though through total conjecture!

One more comment on Jo Venglos he will be installed as favourite on Oddschecker, and be all over TalkSport.
-
I think Matt Kendrick is a decent enough journo. Not sure what all the negativity towards him is all about considering villa do not really conduct their business in the public.
-
I don't mind Kendrick
-
He doesn't have to talk on Twitter, does he? so, anything he does post is always good to read.
-
He's been quiet on Twitter today,hope its not due to him being busy writing up his exclusive interview with new boss Mccleish.
-
Another in a long line of media people it seems we have to ignore because the message is not to our liking
-
It does annoy me the latest trend seems to be to just have a go at any journalist or media person and saying they could do a better job.
Mat seems fine to me he will make mistakes just like everyone in any job will also do.
-
I don't dislike Mat at all. I would rather there were fewer articles of complete speculation dressed up as an exclusive but when you have little to go on its to be expected I suppose.

Sussed?

He's ok, Neil Moxley however......

Neil Moxley is a proper TOOL!

That's a very polite way of putting it!
Kendrick seems ok, but the whole manager fiasco show he knows just as much as the rest of us, zilch.
-
Another TOOL is Dean Scoggins from The Sun. Him and Moxley are surely competing for the title of the ultimate TOOL!
-
The biggest Tool at The Sun is Shaun Custis.
Now he is a bell end of the first water. Almost as bad as that Bagpuss faced cretin "Britains top Sports prick"Oliver Holt.
-
kendrick does a ok job,we could be covered by Twattum.Now there is a tool .
-
Not.

Bullsh*t 3 ring circus of freaks sounds about right now. More of a Lateralus man myself....
-
I liked A Perfect Circle's first effort.
-
Tough crowd in tonight.
OK, here is Judith for you so you can appreciate Paz Lenchantin's bass chops.
-
I appreciate more than her bass chops.
The Hollow is a better tune...
-
Maz, you say there's a tune in there, could you let me know how far in it starts?
Because all I heard for the first minute was what sounded like someone moaning over the top of a broken washing machine.
-
"judith" is a cracking tune...
"lateralus" is the best tool track and album for me though...
-
APC are awesome.

Neil Moxley seems to making a bit of a prat of himself today, shame, I used to quite like him.

Schism is pretty good too.
-
Great a thread about one of the greatest bands around. I couldn't let this pass without chucking my 2 penneth. This is a beast of a track...
-
I don't have much knowledge of MK but it seems he has some inside knowledge that is always useful.

Immense. Makes you want to get to a drum kit double quick time.

Well he was spot-on with yesterday's Sunday Mercury headline. I respect his information. He's not wrong very often.
-
Moxley sounds like either an angry bluenose or a bitter reporter who has been cut out of the loop. Maybe both.
-
Anyone noticed he's actually on now?
*WAVES*

Maynard James Keenan? Cool.

I think a majority of the journo's out there are pissed off with the goings on at villa as they have been cut out of the loop! they do not know whats going on so are venting their frustrations on twitter and in the papers. All i can say is "HAHAHAHA" as they are showing their true colours....carp reporters with no class whatsoever!
Neil Moxley and Dean Scoggins are two of the worst journo's I have come across! Mat Kendrick and Timothy Abrahams (express and star) are far better and more connected to the villa that the two mentioned above!
-
Cherub, if you spend all your leisure time reading the Evening Mail and the Freddie Mercury and listening to Talk Sh*te then you need to have a word with yourself and take up more interesting pursuits like watching the kettle boil.
-
MK is no MJK that is for sure.
-
I apologise to mat kendrick. you were right and well eeked out!
I am astonished and bewildered that you are, but good journalism!
