Curbishley? Crikey General, you would knock 10,000 off the gate in one fell swoop.

I will do the job for half what he wants and still get us to mid table!

He did well at Charlton but there is a very big difference between someone that made Charlton a mid table team a few years ago and what is required for Aston Villa and where we want to go.

Anyhow, are there likely to be moves afoot to remove any players from the transfer list now that we are looking at a new incumbent to the post? I was just interested based on Luke Young's comments 5the other day.

Cheers

In comparison to the welcome that MON received when he was appointed, please expect a welcoming committee of a tumbleweed and slow dong of a distance bell if Curbishley is given the job

Curbishley = No
KevMac      = No
Koeman     = Yes
Sven          = Yes


Please pass on my thoughts. I am serious about placing my season card in the drawer and not spending my kids inheritance down VP if Curbs gets the job. If KevMac gets it, I will be disappointed but will continue to support the club. If an internationally recognised manager with credentials gets the job, I will relax and admire my clubs ambitions to be amongst the best. A substandard appointment will take 10k off the attendance! What would that cost us? If the best costs, the fans will be back. Appoint pants, we all lose.

Thanks GK and continue to be our voice (this is my opinion, before anyone has a dig!)

i agree with this General

also......
 
Klinsman - Yes
Moyes - Yes

but mostly SVEN - YES YES

Moyes the man for me, but cant see it. All of these respected and can get in some big names, who the f*** is curbs gunna attract? Keep the future bright General!!

Just a quick thought, does Mr. Lerner ever have a look at forums, or do you have a chat what the fans are thinking??

Hi General,

Will you be logging in soon to tell us that the rumored names in news regarding the manager replacement are just that...rumors? Please tell us that these uninspiring names are just rumors made up in newspapers and that the clandestine meetings in London (if they did take place in London) with potential managers include names not mentioned in the newspapers because the names are so fabulous that no one would believe it if printed in the newspapers. Please?

Get KOeman as a player 20 years back.
As a manager is a BIG NO NO.

Curbishley = No
KevMac      = No
Koeman     = Yes
Sven          = Yes

General

If you do see Curbishley, just ask him to say "Birmingham" - could you put up with that pronunciation on a regular basis?

None of them appeal to me, The thought of Toshack scares me...

And the thought of walking on the wild side with Curbs fills me with apathetic bile.

Not going to the Villa if they dont appoint a manager you approve of is, IMO, ridiculous. And you wouldnt carry it thorough!
