'Nigel Pearson being lined up to replace Tim Sherwood.'

'Nigel Pearson being lined up to replace Tim Sherwood.'

Pearson got Leicester flying and on the front foot and pressing.  he's also managed England  under 21s. Mahrez amongst others were signed under him so he can do the job far better than Sherwood imo

Gone according to Sky

[Hillbilly]

Wahey! We're out of the frying pan!

Please God. I nearly vomited up my brain when I saw that.

He's going to be linked so we have some choppy rumour filled seas to negotiate. I am just hoping it's like our transfer strategy this summer that was pleasantly surprising and we find someone talented not from these shores. I like Rodgers, but I'll be delighted if it was someone cultured from abroad. We really need someone different to breathe life into the club.

Aston Villa Football Club has parted company with manager Tim Sherwood today.

The Board has monitored the performances closely all season and believes the results on the pitch were simply not good enough and that a change is imperative.

However, the Club would like to place on record its sincere thanks to Tim for all his efforts during a difficult period last season and for the many positive contributions he has made to the entire football setup during his time with the Club. We wish him well in the future.

Assistant manager Ray Wilkins, first-team coach Mark Robson and performance analyst Seamus Brady have also left with immediate effect and do so with our best wishes.

A search for a new manager has commenced and the squad will be managed in the interim by Kevin MacDonald.

There will be no further comment from the Club at this stage.

Some good news at last. Now go and get Moyes.

Please god no to another dour TSM

If he keeps us in this league though. That's the most important thing. We can worry about our style of football later, but our priority is to stay in the PL.

Yorke on Sky says he wants the job, god help us

The thing with Moyes is his Everton teams were very often in exactly this position before they somehow finished in the top 6 or top 8 by seasons end.

Go Dave!!!

This managerial appointment is the most important in our history in my opinion. We simply can't afford to feck this one up.

Dwight Yorke wants to 'give it a go'! I nearly wet myself.

"A search for a new manager has commenced..."

Interesting that this is in the past tense...  Hopefully means that we won't be waiting too long.
