The future of Houllier and McAllister?

[Slaphead]

The point I'm making is one that's not based on his record last season, or his ability, its his physical and mental state that to me says, no can do. Regardless of what these medical blokes say because they are not going to be there on the touch line, when we have our backs to the wall facing some scouse onslaught in a game, needing our manager to be going frantic at the lads to step it up, and he simply can't do it, he can't get involved.

Mr Houllier resigned from Liverpool on health and stepped down from Lyon because of pressure from the chairman for poor performance saying he was exhausted and needed a break.

This heart problem he has is one that is normally congenital (This is a defect in the aorta, the main artery that carries oxygen-rich blood to the body. In a healthy heart, the aorta is attached to the left ventricle. This allows only oxygen-rich blood to flow to the body.
In tetralogy of Fallot, the aorta is between the left and right ventricles, directly over the VSD. As a result, oxygen-poor blood from the right ventricle flows directly into the aorta instead of into the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Problems can occur when a greater flow of a blood/oxygen mix is required beyond the normal flow rate.)

The only point I'm making is, we have got over the MON era and the hangover that gave us, we now need a management team in place with a 5 year plan, the club needs that, the players need that (definably) and I think the fans need it IMO, also, surely Lerner needs it if he is about to invest further countless millions on rebuilding a side that may well be about to be ripped apart in the transfer market, thing is Houllier simply can't do that. IMO.

Sounds good, copied directly from the Interweb, but sounds good.

I am a 5Th year med, specializing in Vascular surgery and hoping to qualify with honours in that field, I do know a tad about it, not much mind 

Villa fans are allowed a brain......

Really? You must be on some super secret course then because I was pretty certain you don't specialise until after your 2nd foundation year FY2. Baring in mind that speciality has a 1/20 success rate of getting accepted onto a program, you are a long way from being a vascular surgeon and at the moment a generic 5th year med student with no extra knowledge of vascular surgery.

According to a Matt McKendrick tweet, Houllier has left Villa.
Mutual consent.

No surprise and I'm sure he goes with everyone's best wishes for his health and his future.

Just popped in to say that! Interesting times ahead, then. Again.

I'd be happy with a bit of mundanity for a while to be honest. Last season was a bit too bloody 'interesting' for my liking

A little bird told me that this was the way it would end about two months ago.

[Percy McCarthy]

If there is a danger of that then I suppose they'll have to blame the God-awful job he's done. Not many would seriously question that as a reason.

9th place given O'Neill's walk out and the worst injury crisis I've ever seen. Plus the signing of the best striker we could have hoped to get and a pretty decent end to the season.
There you go, I've seriously questioned that Hotlips did a "God-awful job".

I give him little credit for the few good things from that horrendous season, maybe a bit for signing Bent. I think we'd have been better without a manager.

Highlights?

West Ham at home, Arsenal away, Chelsea away, which followed a team meeting independent of the manager during which, according to Friedel, the players decided to pull their fingers out.

Lowlights? Virtually every minute from when he took over from KMac until GMac took over.

Houllier would have been operated on by a cardiac surgeon, not a vascular surgeon... for the record.

Cheers, thanks for that, its just as well they didn't recruit my expertise on the team involved then.
