If Harry wants to manage Ashley ?? Why doesn't he apply............No I can't say it. Off to the naughty corner.

I'd have him.

This isn't a sexual fantasies thread.

Well I've had a blue note on Hughes tonight at 14/1.  Any ideas on what I can spend my soon-to-be-collected £70 on?

You can still get 46 on betfair Des - put it towards the Dublin trip next May.

A lot of money for Bob Bradley this evening.

If Bradley does pitch up, there better be a director of football working over him.

That's the only reason you would hire him. A DOF trusted by Lerner would get the wages in check and handle player acquisitions while Bradley manages the tactics and the team.

The very thought of us ending up with Bob fecking Bradley is driving me to despair

Appy Arry is never gonna come up to Brum from old London Town so forget him straight away. Hughes? would you really want to hire someone who has only just signed for another club and then would be willing to walk away at the the first offer from a bigger club before playing a single game?. Looking at what the US did at the world cup with a fairly reasonable side, drew with Estonia? or whoever it was, but for a one off shocker from a keeper would have lost to a very poor England and then just scraped an injury time winner against Algeria, then lost to Ghana. Not really that inspiring.

Evening chaps. Newbie on here.  :) I'd like to give Kevin Mac a go, see how he gets on. He knows the club well, been here years now, knows all the players including the youngsters, who i think are going to be important. Few of us now are probably thinking we're gonna have a decent crack at getting into the top four next season, so, give him till January see how we're getting on. If we're doing OK results wise and more importantly the football is improving and we can see signs of another team coming together, then give him the rest of the season. He's got a great record with the stiffs and whilst i know its a massive leap from that to the first team, the only way we're ever gonna know if the bloke's good enough is to give him a go. Every great manager had to start somewhere and looking at all the names people are suggesting at the moment no one really is standing out for me.

You keep coming up with sense like that you won't last long here.

Bradley wasn't going to be given a new contract anyway-not a cat in hells chance of him becoming villa boss- more chance of mon managing Argentina than Bradley managing villa!

Randy is a clever man , not a fool.
He was rumoured to be interested in the grossly unqualified Jurgen Klinsmann when he took over the club so you never know.

The grossly unqualified Klinsmann who played under some of the best managers at some of the biggest clubs in Europe, and who also managed the German national side?

Can't believe Bradley has got 19 votes on here, I assume that's our American contingent. In saying that, DOL had got more votes than Pellegrini, Hitzfeld and Eriksson so maybe there is some bad acid floating around.

Looking at oddschecker there arent many bookies offering odds anymore, Paddy Power was there an hour or so back but isnt now and those left make Sven the favourite.

If we get Sven how many days before the Mirror report we are gonna signs Beckham?

They have just suspended the market overnight in case something happens and catches them on the hop.

Check again in the morning.

She's due a revamp/ image change, and she'd be good for the American market I guess.

Oh.
