Cowans will be a first team coach.

Nice.

[dave.woodhall]

I read that the press conf. is at Bodymoor Heath, is that correct ?
If so, is there any significance in that ?

How will the hoards of adoring fans welcome the new boss all the way out there ?

I can't imagine why its not at Villa Park.

The club has the courage of its own convictions...doesn't it ?   

It's because of the Take That gig. Villa Park is a building site for the next week.

[Lambert and Payne]

As much as I love randy, times like this really are the right time to speak to the fans and media

[JJ-AV]

Very good press confrence.

[Summers]

Well, I like him. Said all the right things and I'm confident in his appointment.

[garyfouroaks]

F'ing Eck did ok at the Press Conference.Sensible answers, sure footed - amazed as f*** that he is with a top PL side rather than in the Champ , as we all are.

[Stu]

Didn't really say much. It's nice that he wants to be here and I like the positivity, I just can't help but think it's all going to go horribly wrong.

[Walmley_Villa]

Can anybody recap for me as I couldn't pick up any sound? Thanks

[paulcomben]

A lot of mentions of 'trading carefully." By which, we can understand harsh budget constraints and no ambitious signings.
