Who do you want as the next manager? New poll option.

[Dante Lavelli]

First call should be to AVB.
After that take your pick from Poyet, Adkins, Lambert, Flores, Rodgers, AN Other (from abroad), Bernitez, etc.

[Tom Sawyer]

Unfortunately there's no one between the manager we'd love to have here and the one's we wouldn't consider in a million years... which is why we'll probably end up with Curbishley. We'd better get used to it.

[gervilla]

Steve Staunton. He was at the game midweek scouting for Martinoneillssunderland.

[Handsworth Wood Villa]

Seriously what has everybody got against Curbishley 

[Dave Clark Five]

Seriously what has everybody got against Curbishley 

He is crap on FIFA83.

[Tom Sawyer]

He may turn out to be our Alan Pardew. It's not like we've got too many other options.

That's the most obvious trolling nonsense you've come up with yet, HWV.

He was shit in Emlyn Hughes International Soccer.

AN Other sounds good,
i remember good times on here when we signed a player called No One,
 in fact MON tended to sign the same player every window, we never saw him play but he was still on 46k a week

[Tom Sawyer]

I find it so depressing that people think we could get AVB. It shows how unrealistic the expectations of some of our fans are.

[SoccerHQ]

I honestly think if we go down we'll end up with Mick Mccarthy or Steve Bruce.

Staying up I think we'll try again for Martinez, no idea beyond that.

I do hope your wrong, but after the last appointment I would not bet against it.

I suppose they both have Premier experience and know the area.

[Tom Sawyer]

James Nursery on Twitter reckons that although Villa haven't made contact, he's heard that Lambert would take the Villa job if it was offered. Maybe there's hope..?

 i cant see them doing things the same this time around

It's a definite step up from Norwich, most of the cuts and savings amongst the squad will have been made by now at Villa, or at least when Heskey, Cuellar and Guzan go in the summer.  There will be a few more out I reckon with the likes of the fringe players being sold, so Lambert would come in and be given more of a free hand.  This will no doubts also be a part of the excuse for McLeish, no money, no support from the fans in what I reckon will be a gone by mutual consent type statement.  I wouldn't care what he said, he'd be gone.  That's all that counts.
