I don't want Staunton. Not that there is any evidence of that happening.

If we invite 'that' man back into our football club then the worlds gone mad hasn't it?

??   why ?

He might be on the coaching staff, not asked to re-shape the club.

[Chico Hamilton III]

I wouldn't be happy with Staunton either.

[neil strevens]

We took him back as a player and I was less than thrilled at the time. However, he won me over with his performances and effort in his second spell. He therefore left us on good terms. Having said that, his managerial record is so dire that I can't imagine him coming back, even as a coach.

If nothing else, he might be able to teach Cuellar to hoof the ball AND keep it in the park.

[Dr Butler]

I would not want him back at Villa either. I just wondered why from the original poster.

It was certainly weird after chanting 'one greedy bastard' when he visited VP during his second spell with Liverpool, to then cheering him during his second spell with us. Felt he gave his utmost whenever he played, and the way he curled those corners just under the crossbar is something perhaps Downing could learn from him

There are certain managers and players that I would find incredibly distasteful if they were linked with employment at Villa. Staunton's not one of them for me. If he's useful, get him in.

Bergerac seems to be one of the coaching staff. I'd have KMac as Head Coach and Mcallister in as well as a further coach. If Mr Grumpy joined the team too then I wouldn’t have a problem.

Is exactly what I said last night, I would have no problem with Stan coming back, I liked his passion as a player and if he rubbed that off on some of the players I would be delighted.

How many times did Stan actually do that though? I can recall Palace at home and that's it.

[Matt C]

I wonder if Staunton might be a good a decent aide between Houllier & McDonald as he's worked closely with both, could help bring the whole coaching team together.

That was scoring direct from a corner and yes his did, I think it did it again.

He did have a really good left foot

I can't see any reason why Staunton shouldn't be involved
