One or 2 whispers about Gary McAllister coming back as number 2 on twitter
Likely to be BS, but need a total change with No 1, not another No 2 to fall out with.
In any case, didn't he fall out with players when he was here before?
Return of the Mac, is what I would have called this thread.
He did alright as caretaker manager after Houllier stepped down.

I'd have gone with McDoughnuts.

He fell out with some of the players, along with Houllier but the suggestion is it was a group of bad apples who had it all their own way under O Neill and didn't like certain aspects of the new regime, such as the harder training and double sessions. Dunne, Collins and Warnock didn't like Mac and Houllier.
Likewise Gabby considered leaving because of their regime and also because Houllier didn't want Gabby to beef up as much as he was because he'd lose pace and also probably pick up more injuries.
Something like that. Based on hear say, incidents which made the press and from some players own mouths (Gabby came out and said he didn't particularly get on with Houllier).
For me though I'm with Houllier and Mac on this matter. Those overpaid, workshy sacks of shit should have shut up and got on with it and actually earned their money. Fucking footballers (currently in a footballers piss me off mood).
The youngsters liked Houllier as did some of the better pro's who got their head down and got on with it, like Big Brad, Coker and Stan.
Would not be averse to him coming back at all. Did well as caretaker and was part of the style Houllier was better at implementing than Lambert.

Apart from blotting his copybook losing to ten men from a winning position in the Champions League Final at the Hawthorns.
I liked him as a player, and thought he was OK as an assistant. He actually did well as a caretaker and would have been a far better Would be an decent appointment than TSM1.
Would be happy with this.
Has he had a job since he left us ?
He's a winner. We'll drum that out of him in no time.
He's obviously not a man to be trifled with. I do wonder if it's asking for trouble again. We've already had to get rid of a couple of bullies, then an absolute fucking maniac in Roy Keane. Gary Mac of course is probably a lot more level headed but he's already butted heads with squad members at this club when he was here before. Granted he and the boss were probably in the right, and bar Gabby, all those bad seeds have long since departed.
Is Lambert just setting himself up for another load of dissension? Ultimately I think the manager himself doesn't have a tight enough grip on the squad.
Wish we could shoehorn Hoddle in to coach the "passing game" then fuck Lambert off and appoint him head coach
Not inspiring but then not likely with Villa in its' current predicament.
I'd like to see a proper coach - Steve Clarke if he could be persuaded.
