Who do you want the next Villa manager to be?

[rob_bridge]

Just browsing a couple of online articles at work. Jamie Redknapp calls Garde an uninspiring choice (meaning he's probably never heard of him), then says "you can't tell me there aren't English managers available with better credentials". Yes I can Jamie. It's also typical apparently that we're looking abroad for a manager (yes Jamie, all of our recent managers were foreign weren't they).

THEN, elsewhere we have Wenger telling us that we didn't give Lambert enough time!!

Alan Brazil (yeah I know) can't understand why we'd look abroad when Nigel Pearson is available.

I need to stop reading this drivel before I start head butting walls.

Who did Young Redknapp site as having better credentials. Not equal or similar. Who is specifically English, available and has better credentials?

Incidentally how many of your former clubs have English managers Jamie? That's right none of them.

Bournemouth?

Sorry.

Jamie is one of the worst pundits on tv...useless. What has being English got to do with it???

I think he possibly struggles as English clearly isn't his first language.

He is literally an idiot.

He is literally a fucking idiot, and a prize bell end too.

I can't imagine pops being too keen on coming to the Villa after the remarks we made about not dropping the soap in the showers when he goes to prison a few years back.

Galtier much closer in the betting than he had been. 2/1 on some now. Garde 4/5 on some so the gap has closed. Anyone knowing about Galtier?

Someone's just put a tenner on Galtier. He's 2/1 at bet365 now.
Garde out at 4/6 from 4/7.

Definitely at least once - a penalty on the first day of the season, '95.

Cheers. I think you misread the question though

Ha, I clearly did, yes. Early shifts, two small children, brain scrambled.

You've answered your own question Marlon - don't listen to, or read it. I know that shouldn't have to be the answer but I haven't listened to any punditry on football for god knows how long. It's full of not very bright people like Brazil, Redknapp (x2), Quinn, Cascarino et al. The list is endless. I have no doubt some of them are quite nice chaps out of 'work' in a kind of 'one of the lads, old school' way but they are severely lacking in the brain cells department and compound that by thinking of Aston Villa as an irrelevance somewhere in the middle of the country. To them, QPR or Crystal Palace are more important which says it all. It isn't entirely true of the media as a whole. To give him his due, Adrian Durham was talking up just what a big club we are and one of the most successful clubs ever on Talkshite last night!

Adrian Durham is the worst, because he hides the fact that he actually has some knowledgeable things to say about football behind the moronic veneer of his radio programme in the evening.

The Durham that you might here on TalkShite on a Saturday sounds like a completely different person.

Totally agree on that

Caught some of his weekday show the other day and it was awful. Darren Gough is surely the stupidest person ever to be on radio. He's just mindblowingly thick. Listening to him massacre the English language is horrible. He can't even get the basics right, he struggles with the simplest thing. He's a broadcaster, FFS.

He'd never heard such filth in his entire life I recall.

[rob_bridge]

Gough is an utter fuckwit.

Like him as a cricketer mind.

I like Durham as someone said previously he is a football fan who is a capable broadcaster when covering Saturday afternoons, and is one of the few (non ex players) who sticks up for Villa

It's Garde, I know it

[rob_bridge]

I remember Jamie Redknapp on Sky Sports covering an England game about a decade ago - the Golden Generation including his cousin.

He said (probably slightly paraphrased

'...I really am sick of people saying these England players don't care. Well tonight these players will show them just how much they don't care.'

Fakkin 'ell, how rude. The borderline criminal, baggy faced ******.

Snap. Been on 5 til 1 today. Worked 25 days out of the last 26.

It actually needs someone to turn around and say actually he did deserve to be sacked for these reasons. We're being made out to be the bad guys in this
