Sounds promising.....

Oh, indeed. QPR get the brains whilst we get the arse.

I know a Fulham scout very well, and he has little time for Jol and his general instruction when looking for players.

We don't need to look for players, we need to get some points in the next 13 matches.

I've always liked Jol frsoe reason. I felt he got pinged at Spuds early to be honest.

Experienced, worked in Germany and Netherlands at Ajax and Hamburg so has managed big clubs. Would complement our squad of players.

Has a soft spot for us and most of all is available now.

What did you make of his experience at Fulham?  He fell away at Fulham and didnt win the league with Ajax if i'm right ?? And where is the soft spot hes a wba man

He assembled a decent squad at Fulham, did alright for a couple of years before that poor run that led to his sacking - just like 99% of managers.

He went to Rotterdam in the Villa end one night in May 1982. Talks quite openly about it.

Always been a pretty big Jol fan, but he does have his limitations and in a way it feels like that ship has sailed.  Some managers you just need to get during a certain purple patch of their careers his would have been post Spurs or if we could have nicked him from Fulham.  I don't think he could turn us around now.

Can you imagine. Franksey would have a stroke.

I don't know having walked out on Palace another abupt move might make Pulis look like someone who is whoring his services out.  Question is does he want an extended run and chance to advance a club?  Or is he just happy being paid well to stablise clubs in the short term.  I suspect the former.  And why would West Brom want to risk their long term top flight future by letting him go?

Depends who we bring in as number 2 doesn't it. The team around Sherwood will be more important than Sherwood himself.

[KevinGage]

Regards to Hoddle and Sherwood its a no as they arent on the best of terms. Warnock is a big fan of Sherwood and has publicly championed his cause for both Palace and QPR jobs. Do you wonder why the man is quiet this time around on Tims chances for Villa?? Could he be involved to?

Yes, I think that's it.

We haven't heard anything from Alex Ferguson or David Moyes either, so they must be involved too.

Fabian on BBC saying there is no way we will get relegated...and wouldn't mind his mum taking the job.

Jenas saying Sherwood would be a fantastic choice, loved his time under him, training was great, worked well with all the young lads and full of confidence...Le Saux saying the same.

And therein lies the rub.

His team are Ramsey- who won't bail out of QPR, and DOF Sir Les who is also there. Neither of whom I would want anywhere near Villa.

Fabian Delph on Football Focus just now reckons his mom could do the job.
Come on Mrs. Delph, you could be professional football's first female manager.

Perhaps a joint appointment with Sandra Redknapp as our attacking coach?

Its good to see a bit of fighting talk from Delph.

I love how players such as Jenas who only had a cup of coffee at the club are suddernly turned into official mouth pieces whose views we are meant to take serious.  And since when does enjoying training with a guy make him a good manager?

Would he fancy his chances at as big a club as he is likely to get an offer from in his career (the Champions League cartel are never going to even consider him) or would he think he is better off staying at Albion rather than going to a club that could change owners at any time?

It doesn't hide the fact Sherwood is an arse and probably the biggest chancer in football. Tactically clueless, gobshite, rode on the coat tails of Ramsey and tried to steal the glory. I could go on but what's the point.
