Got twelve. Nice idea for a quiz but would've been better if it had included quotes from loads of ex-Villa managers going back decades, rather than just the most recent incompetents.

6 - they've all merged/morphed into one.

4.5 years of being brow beaten has got us here.

I suspect if I go back and do this quiz 22 times at regular intervals, say every 3 months, I'd get 22 different scores.

Ditto 6.... you are right, they are all sound-bites you can hear all of them saying, although at least Houllier looked like he had a clue and a style of play he wanted to implement.

Spot on. I got six as well and any of those quotes could have come from any of those managers.

Glad to see I'm not on my own with six.  Most of them were guesses too.

I got to question 8 and had to stop as I was getting too depressed.

 Reoccurring theme there isn't there.

 The sad fact is each question could be any of them.

Exactly! Frightening similarity between them, which is why I scored 7 / 22 (law of averages: 1 in three chance of getting it right).

I got 12, although the 'we go again' one was a bit tough.
