I'm a big MON fan but I don't think he should come back. If he does while I have no doubt he'd do a good job at the time we'd be even further up the creek when he throws his toys out again. Anyone else think he might be hanging on for England?

Without a doubt.  We are becoming a complete joke again, when we can't even get the manager of Wigan to come to us.

Mon is highly respected and would make us a force again.

The depressing situation and the realism couldnt have been summed up any better.
Who can the club attract of such high regard/calibre other than MON?

Lay off the crack, kids.

If that twat came back, I'd buy a season ticket in the front row of the Trinity so I could hurl abuse and gob at him on a bi-weekly basis.

No. He had the job and left it. He's a quitter and i reckon this is a factor in why he's still unemployed.

Well at least thats season tickets gone up by one.  So thats more coffers coming into the club. And that just by speculating on this message board!!

I forgot all about his shit signings. Downing, Young, Milner, Friedel ect ect.

Etc etc? You mean you can't think of any more? Davies £9m wasted he didn't play him, harewood, knight, shorey, salifou, young L, heskey,  warnock, beye, all shit we can't get rid of. Not to mention selling cahill & other young talent. Don't believe the hype

His Signings were sh!te..

Good:

Carew
Friedel
Downing
Delph

Indifferent:

Petrov
Cueller
Davies
Collins
Dunne

Bad:
Zat
Maloney
Agathe
Sutton
Heskey
Bardsley
Kiraly
Routledge
Salifou
Harewood
Reo-Coker
Sidwell
Brad Guzan
Shorey
L Young
Beye
Warnock

I havent included Milner & young because even my gran could have spotted their talent. And it was Randy who paid over the odds to get them in anyway.


Never the less where did these players end-up and who was manager.
End of the day there were other prem clubs who could have signed them and didnt.
RL and MON took the gamble and its paid off.

What a load of complete and utter wank !!!!
'We are becoming a complete joke again' !!!!!
Get a fucking grip
Get behind the club. Stop listening to Talkshite and reading the sun.
Its bad enough the outside world talking shite, we don't need 'fans' coming on here spouting tripe as well.

All right mate no need to be rude!

Of course us 'fans' who have been supporting the club for 30 odd years should just go away if we say something negative about Villa.  Again I apologise for thinking that fluking 9th is totally acceptable, also for not being able to tempt a second rate manager is the norm.  If you think a big names is coming then I think it is you who needs to get a grip

Absolutely not! His football bored me to the brink of tears towards the end.

Yep, and the last quarter of last season were really exciting having to struggle for prem survival.
Dont know about you. But i think RL/fans would prefer to be bored with top half of table finish.

I find it so depressing that Martin O-fucking-Neill still looms over this site like the smell of last week's tuna. The bloke's history as far the Villa's concerned. Or would be if his reign wasn't STILL being dissected so regularly. Let it go, for goodness' sake!

Wow, i am stunned that anyone would have him back. 

I fail to see how he would be a good choice now, when we have less money.  He showed little or no application for coaching players so his cheque-book style of management is not what is needed in our current circumstances.

Financial fair play rules mean ALL clubs have restraints on budgets so it would be no different with what ever club (bar a chelski/ MC ) and how likely is that to happen?

The guy walked out on us 5 days before the season started taking most of his mates with him. To rub salt into the wound he does us for unfair dismissal .No way should we have him back.
