Best manager we have had in years? How many years? He threw more cash at it than any other I can recall and we didn't win anything.And as for the petulant spouting at all and sundry associated with the club, I give up.Its shit at the minute I grant you but I have had it up to the back teeth in the last few days with ever more illiterate posters desperately trying to do out do each other as to how its "even worse" in their opinion and on every fucking thread.Are there questions to be answered? Without a doubt, some serious soul searching is required at this club in the summer.But when we are discussing the return of Pube Head, does it really require another anti McLeish, anti Houllier, anti coaching staff, anti Board or anti Scouting whinge?Bloody cheltenham-what a load of old shit from yourself too. Yes, in my opinion, he is the best manager we have had in the last 10 years, which is a long time in football. I am not illiterate and absolutely love Aston Villa. Why not rant about all of these people who have brought misery and constant anti this and anti that threads. Why not? I am sure you never delve into such delights.Sheffield Villain-why is what I am saying out of context? What a drab response. BoringI apologise for having an opinion that you do not agree with. Get over it-it's my opinion. You have had yours and here is mine. I could not care less about your views when you just want to attack a fellow fan who is simply fed up with how the club is being ranExplain to me where I attacked you?The thread is about the reception Martin O'Neill will get.Explain to me where 'McLeish - wank manager. twat. fuck him too' or 'Houllier is a liverpool cock sucking twat. fuck him' or 'McLeish, Faulkner and even Randy - you're twats. Now please fuck off' are relevant to the reception Martin O'Neill will get.You don't need to apologise for having an opinion that I disagree with. To be honest, I didn't actually question your opinion anyway. I questioned the need for it on this thread, and the continuous unneccessary vitriolic hate-filled language you used to express it.I'm sorry if you feel attacked. That was not my intention. I hope your feelings recover soon.

Especially regarding your response. I am fed up, you're a boring, 'I sit on the fence' guy and that's fine. I won't change my mind due to your condemnation.O Neil would get a decent response if i could attend the game. Better than that of mcleish and houllier,who, thankfully due to working abroad, have never got to witnes a game live with them in charge.
An interview with MON on Sky Tune and Wear Site:Sunderland Manager Martin O'Neill On Returning To Aston Villa For The First TimeShame they have edited out the question he is answering. Ends saying he has no doubt that Aston Villa Football Club will be great again.
Attendances are funny things.By my reckoning, 74,376 saw the Sex Pistols gig at the 100 club and 215,422 saw the 5-1 thrasing of Liverpool in 1976.

Large investment in the squad and infrastructure, a (mostly) winning team and we still failed to sell out on a regular basis.I'd say an average of 40k in 2008 involved selling out fairly regularly.And we never really played consistently well at home. We only won more than half our home games once under MON, and in his last two seasons, were amongst the lowest scorers at home in the league.Well, by your own figures in the later post we had 6 sell outs from 19 games - I'd imagine they were expecting greater than 1 in three!I peronally think that winning and belief the club is going somewhere attracts fans more than entertainment value.
