I've heard thommo say many good things about us, they even took the piss out of him last season as he was the only panelist to tip us to finish top 4!

STUPID FUCKING SCOUSE PRICK, ILL BOO THE C%NT
That's the spirit.  Great way to support the team

i will support the team and i will support the new manager but that dick can do one!

why do you "hate" a person that you don't know from a hole in the ground? Do you think he'll come to Villa and secretly plot to undermine the entire operation? Or do you think he'll do his very best to make us successful? That despite whatever you may think of him as a TV pundit, he was a very good footballer and he's trusted by the manager working alongside KM.

i will boo who the hell i fucking want!!  i have had a season ticket for a very long time now and i am entitled to my opinion and this is a totally rediculous appointment !!!!!

i was happy with having houllier in charge and passing some of his experience onto Kev mac,  but to have bloody thompson as assistant manager is a joke

Yes, the idea of a manager wanting to work with his former assistant is 'rediculous' (sic).

It'd be interesting to see Phil Thompson's reaction when 'Stevie G' hits a 25 yard screamer in injury time to beat us 1-0 at Villa Park this season (I could have said Torres but he scored against us last year). I mean, it's not as though he's circumspect about his Liverpool FC obsession on Soccer Saturday.....

Cant see a problem. Good fun to take the piss out of but at the end of the day he was a top player for club & country and will bring a wealth of experience to the job. Bring it on

How would you expect someone who spent many fabulous years playing and supporting Liverpool to react whilst being paid to be TV pundit? People on here comment about how McInally, Merson, Gregory or Dublin favour Villa on TV/radio (Merson less so recently), and they likely don't have a tenth of the allegiance as Thompson would to Liverpool. He's a professional, and being a professional, if he is appointment to Houllier's staff he'll do his best to make us successful. Just like Nigel Spink does at Blues.

Most players and coaches support other teams but when employed by Aston villa I'm sure they give their best to Aston villa whoever they support- I'm sure Thompson would want villa to beat Liverpool!
