I'm very happy o neill went thanks lovejoy!
What I'm not happy about was that we did not replace him with a better manager than houllier - but as for wanting o neill back- no way!

Who were the better managers?  As far as I recall there wasn't much of a choice.  Houllier seemed to be the best of a mediocre bunch.

Who would you have picked to replace O'Neill?

Tokyo: I agree. At the time it seemed a good choice to take us forward. BTW enjoyed the march in Franschhoek.

No. He's partly culpable for our current situation. Brand O'Neill can do one.

His story is now history.

Let's leave it there and move on... after a few years we'll only remember the good bits.

Not under any circumstances and if the alternative was relegation, so be it.
I will never forgive him for what he did.

If it meant us staying in the division, then yes i'd have him back tomorrow, but then again i just want what's best for the supported since i was a boy.

MON from what I have seen has always acted with integrity. I could not have imagined him waving at Lpool fans or Wycombe or Leicester for that matter. I remember him taking John Motson to task because he had the temerity to ask for MONs opinion about Macheda. He told him he was the AVFC manager and was not there to join in any mediafest about Man Utds next brightest thing. A big contrast between that and the attitude of his successor post defeat to Liverpool. If the club was selling Milner and giving him a mentally unstable Ireland and no cash for next season then he was put into an impossible situation. That is my view. There are very well defined positions on here that are contrary to that. I am sure the true story will come out some day. Will he come back? No is the short answer. Onwards and ............ well we'll see

In a heartbeat, if he and RAL agreed to what needed to be done wage wise and there were no more dummy spits. 

You've more chance of Australia winning the 5th Test though. which is zero chance.

RAL was the venture set up to buy the Villa it is not Randy's initials.

After watching some of the crap he served up at home last season and what he did to us at the start of the season it would have to be a resounding no. I still hold him as the main person responsible for what is currently taking place.

That is possibly the most ridiculous post I have ever read.

Unfortunatley there are a few more people who think along those lines and at the end of the day it's not doing us much good.

After what O'Neill did I sincerely hope he never finds employment again.
