David O'Leary is the only one that I truly hate. Thought that he was God's gift and was hopeless, didn't care in the slightest about the club.

Houllier was ill and not really with it.

McLeish tried, but wasn't good enough and his tactics were dire.

O'Neill seems like an arrogant sod and left us at a deliberately bad time, to bugger us up. But he did also give me the most exciting times in my 10+ years as a season ticket holder.

O'Leary for me; for his unbelievable arrogance in thinking that the clubs' he had played for and managed were superior to Aston Villa, and that includes his attitudes to the supporters.  The dismissve way he refered to us,  and concescendingly told us to stop living in the past still yanks my chain.  >:(

Needs to be fucked with the rough end of a ragmans trumpet!

Martin O'Neill because 1) we're literally still paying for his mistakes and 2) because all the others were, to varying degrees crap, arrogant and annoying, but only O'Neill deliberately put our season into crisis by the timing of his resignation.

I hate McLeish most, but it's MON who actually winds me up, just because of the way he, in the words of Stephen King, 'crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side'. How he managed to get paid for fucking up Aston Villa for the best part of three years by leaving when he did and not have any media point the finger at his actions beggars belief.

Doncaster away and Arsenal away tip me towards pug nose. The way he came out after a 5-0 hiding and heaped praise on Arsenal as if we weren't worth to be on the same pitch really narked me.

O'Neills perception from outsiders really gets me annoyed though.

O'Neill. Mainly because I was blinded into thinking he could do no wrong and always made excuses for him. The way he left was unforgivable and we're only just starting to repair the damage he did to us. O'Dreary was useless but at least he didn't damage the make up of the club to the extent O'Neill did. Houllier did his best and towards the end of his one season in charge the football was getting there. McLeish was hopelessly out of his depth and now he's gone I actually feel sorry for him that he's convinced he's a football manager. So it's got to be O'Neill, he damaged the club in so many ways and never had the guts to give the fans an explanation.

I said to someone earlier that trip to Arsenal was as bad as it gets for me.

I couldn't give two shites about that wanker O'Neill so not him.

Houllier? Meh.

O'Leary - prick and a tosser

McLeish - Horrible horrible football that made everyone - even Villa fans- start to dislike the team, and the club. but Ican't help but think he was brought in to hang out to dry by the owner. if he fucked it up then he'd be an easy sacking. If he didn't then he would have done the job that not many others probably would have wanted to do. I think McLeish wanted it too much but was woeful.

So -McLeish reminds me of how it was in O'leary's last season. You knew it was a matter of time before relegation. It just started to feel wrong at the club. But McLeish tried whereas TheClown was MON  without the good times. Prick.


O'Leary.

DOL.  6 years on and I still wouldn't tire of punching him repeatedly in that stupid face of his.
