yeah thats the problem , most people wanting Houlier gone and then Mcclaren and Bradley and Allardice will be fighting for the job.

I'd rather have McClaren or Allardyce to be honest.

I know you don't Houllier, and that's fair enough, but now you're going too far.

As we're not shopping around five minutes before the start of season we might be looking at slightly better managers than we did last time.

Would you really, though?

Now the question of us going down has passed, you'd still rather have the anti football himself as our manager than Houllier?

I know we had this argument before, and I referred to the fact that you were like me with O'Neill, in hating the horrible football we played under him, and that you said you'd have Allardyce if it stopped us going down.

We've stopped up but you'd still genuinely rather have him? And watch his brand of "football"?

I'd rather Houllier stay than Allardyce or Mcclaren. I just want the situation resolved asap.

I can not believe if we were to be looking at a new manager the same names always crop up. Is it me but for the last 15 years we have been linked with Alan Curbishley? How long has he been out of work and we are still being linked.

From the events of the last few days one can only deduce the the club are confident in the ability of GH and wish him to continue as manager, provided there is no risk to his health. That would appear to be the strategy.
I'm not sure that's a fair conclusion to draw. All we've seen is the departure of a bunch of out-of-contract and yound hopefuls leaving the club. Not big decisions.

Indeed. From what I understand, all transfers are on hold until the GH situation is resolved.

Which makes sense, but said situation needs to be resolved very quickly.

Mirror breaking news that villas medical experts are looking at the results of geds tests from yesterday and a decision is likely by Wednesday on his future. Can't copy and paste as I'm on iPod but would appreciate it if someone could paste the story.
