What I'd give for a Villa man like Brian Little to be doing a good job somewhere a make the switch to us. I'm disheartened after O'Leary, O'Neill, Mcleish, Houllier, Lambert and Sherwood.

Taylor, Big Ron, Little and Gregory seem like a golden era in comparison.

Maybe we should try going back to the 1800's when we didn't have an actual manager and have management by commitee
didn't do us any harm then, in fact we ruled the world

to be fair to our man he was left with difficulties as soon as Delph, Benteke and Cleverly moved on.

We could have Shankly, Saunders, Clough etc all rolled into one, there is only so much you can do with our squad.

Yes I do fear  for our immediate future, changing the boss though will only have a very minimal impact if any.  Get me Austin etc in the transfer window.

Cleverley?
He actually looked a quality player in all of 3 games in the time he was here.
The rest of the time he was benched or as shit as the rest of them.

Let's not build him up into something he wasn't.

I'm getting more worried by the day. Something is quite clearly very wrong.
Has been for years.

Exactly. We're into our 6th season of this shit.

I think he was quite a bit better than just 3 games, and certainly better than Westwood (who is still cheating a living at our club).

Why would a new manager not be able to send a team out without Hutton as wingback, Sinclair as second striker, Westwood as midfield dynamo, Crespo as centre back, Gestede as lumbering long ball target and Gabby as token donkey who bleeds claret and cash? By his own words he's guessing at line ups to see what they do, is that good enough? Could no one do better than that? I can guess at formations as gambles, that takes no skill or knowledge at all.

Well, it would mean that we might have a competent manager rather than somebody who isn't really a manager at all.

But then, given the decision-making process from last time there's no guarantee that if we did get rid of him we wouldn't just end up with Joe Kinnear or Zippy from Rainbow next up.

From what I saw of Lennon at the weekend, bundling a cross anywhere might be a bit beyond him these days. He took shit to a level only usually found in Minworth.
Yes Lennon the man who never was!
