McLaren - No
Martinez - No
Benitez - No
Ancellotti - No
Moyes - No
Hughes - No

All for various reasons!

Seems the Villa post is a bit of a poisoned chalice and our options are obviously limited. Not fatalism but just a realistic assessment from a supporter of 40 years standing.

The General has had Villa Talk taken out for all the abuse.

The General deserves it to be fair, he's just a PR guy who makes out he's one of us.

This is not good diplomatic relations, what did the board expect or are they all living in cloud cuckoo land!

Depends what you term as abuse.  He, and the rest of the board are rightly getting an awful lot of criticism which is both justified and correct in my opinion.  Ourtright abuse is a different kettle of fish and of course isn't warranted.

The General has been on the board the last few nights, obviously to garner opinion, but hasn't seen fit to post.

Just looking at AM's Wicki profile. Appears he was, at one time, training to become an accountant. Perhaps that is the bit of his CV that appeals to Randy. Capable of keeping the cash flow under control.

Preferable to MON who after his discontinued legal studying learnt enough to sue everyone left right and centre, and become highly proficient at running up big costs and disbursements.

Obviously not verbal abuse, however he needs to take criticism for constantly spouting on about ambitions of the football club, we will get the right man, have faith in Randy. Our ambitions have changed by employing a manager from a side relegated, a manager who is Mr 'Negative' and another side issue of him managing our rivals.
