Remi Garde? do me a favour!
tell ya wot i rad to be worth remembering is that two legends who wanted the Villa job in the last ten years were Rikaard and Maradona...cant argue with that (unless feeling was at the time that we were excellent)

hello from Shanhgai - first post again in a couple of years but an avid reader of H&V and used to buy it outside the ground (in case you think who the F am I cos this is my first post etc etc, well IMO 'The Holte's Last Stand' edition of Heroes and Villains was great for all to read for who was there of course e.g Villa 2 Cov 0 1992. Chelsea on the pitch 1991 anyone?anyway with regards the manager i read that someone suggested Frank Rikaard. Correct me if i am wrong but he actually phone called ASTON VILLA and said he wanted the job a few years ago. About a year later he ends up managing Barcelona. These days you gotta say Laudrup fits the ethos. That would be an inspired move and a few have suggested him with Laursen. imHO pardon for the opinion dogma, go for a villa man and yes i do agree - bring back BFR - he played it the way it should be played and lets face it we all hark back to them days. Pardon the waffle but i couldnt help noticing PAT MURPHY says he believes we will stay up with a modern coach? Whatever is clever but a Villa man is what is needed now. oh and H&V its great to be back posting. I know Pat McMahon (blarney stone for Villa games) and think Dave Woodhall is a smart analyst when it comes to off the cuff comments.and i have not felt as good about a manegerial change since the 1987 headline on the back page of the Sun "Villa axe Turner"now lets get a Villa boy in lets show some Villa style and lets become THE VILLA again! UTV

I think Zhong meant that maybe they wouldn't want the job now because we are not in such a good position as we were back then.
Has anyone suggested the Chuckle Brothers yet ? I'm sure their summer season contract could be broken and they could get us playing the 'to you to me style'

Considering Villa is still the fourth most successful club in British football what i also meant was unless the lambet liwo ne (thought we were excellent) was not coined by him, why would these two people have been entertained for the job?ask yourself this if the likes or spurs or man city appointed rikjaard or maradona its a media wank fest.btw have you ever stood in the holte? the left side? the cage?
