Remi has been chewed up and spit out by the Villa machine, just like the many other 'failed' managers in recent history. He now looks to me like he has given up and who would blame him ? I think it would be better for him to exit and go back to Lyon where he is appreciated and supported by the club.
He left Lyon after three fairly decent years because he needed a break from football. Fuck knows how long he'll need to recover after managing us, if we haven't put him off the game for life.

I think Remi Garde should take whole squad on a week training camp aboard in the sun to get away from pressure as it might help to unite the team. Worth a try. It might be what we need.

Not a bad idea.

I suggest Raqqa.

They could swap tips with IS about destroying historic institutions.

Perfect place for them would be Grenoble, the one in Ukraine, with a bit of green glow sickness Flabby might lose some weight.

I keep thinking I wouldn't be too bothered if Garde left now. Then I remember that xenophobic idiot McDonald would take over.

No manager with any ambition will come here. We are poisonous.

That's my take on it as well.

There's always Peter Withe, the proverbial walker over hot coals to manage us candidate......

There are times when amid the doom and gloom posters on here come up with gems like this. Well done sirs.

I see the Daily Express is reporting that Remi is on the verge of getting the sack but that he might beat beat the board to it by walking.
Talk about hedging your bets.

No point in sacking him now, the shit thing is though if we had a bit of fight we'd have pulled away as the sides above us are gash

Remi's a broken manager now. He's done here now. He's a turd now, that needs flushing. The club has wrecked him and he was never fit for the job in the first place (there's barely a manager out the who would be to be fair).
Out of his depth. Fuck him off in May and get a fresh face in. Yes, like everyone else here I dread who that may be, but we've got to sweep the place clean and start again in the summer. There's absolutely no coming back for Garde. The players don't back him. The board have fucked him about and there's clearly a relationship beyond repair now. He's also had any shred of enthusiasm buggered out of him and he's devoid of ideas. We've pretty much turned a promising young manager, who wasn't really suited to this league, nor the task required here, into a terrible, fucking godawful manager. He's shit now. We're talking Les Reed (insert any other piss poor manager) level bad. That's not an exaggeration. Results show that. I feel for the guy, but this is a tough business and he has to go.

"Sweep the place clean" yet all you advocate is getting rid of the manager. You mean we need to get rid of 80% of the squad, most the board, and the owner right?

And the chance that happens - nil.

Does anyone know how much Garde gets paid?
