Mossman, TS as in Sherwood? If so, he was a chancer, also out of his depth and arguably found out by the players for his lack of nous.  Strong in opinion but not strong in knowledge?

Paulie, I hate those players too. Flash in the pan, high earning wasters. A stain on our club. A lack of due diligence in the recruitment stage methinks.

Age will not weary them. They will go down in history as the worst squad Aston Villa has had.

Fox, Garde, Reilly all to go just my opinion.  Garde is acting like he already knows he's going.  For a Wenger protege he does the opposite in terms of keeping player opinions in house.  I agree this lot are theeeeee single biggest bunch of c.... We've ever had but I also think they simply wouldn't be allowed to do this were we to have a Graham Taylor type in charge.

Just an example. Moyes is as likely to come to Villa as I am to bag a weekend in Rhyl with Mila Kunis.

PM me. I can sort this for you.

Garde has sulked since the transfer window. I sympathised then but he's done nothing to try to get a tune out of the squad, as much of a rag-bag that it is.

The gap to safety surprisingly hasn't actually grown much in the last few weeks but he mirrors the 'can't be asked'attitude of the players and has ensured we make no inroads or effort to close the gap. It would've been nice to at least try and the very least we should've expected.

Piss off, Remi, the transfer window shut a month ago.

I would doubt that you could sort that, but Colwyn Bay would be a real possibility.

Where Mila Kunis is concerned, I'm anything but Colwyn Bay.

Beginning to become concerned about Garde.  I have been a supporter, but I don't know whether he has now just given up and is just waiting to leave in the summer.  If I was Hollis, I would be looking for answers from him now.  If his intention is to leave then I would move him on now rather than go through another ten versions of tonight's debacle and either bring in someone new or appoint a caretaker.  Either that or give Garde the assurances he wants and start making decisions about next season.

He's far from being the most responsible person for our relegation but in over half a season he's not done anything other than come across quite well in a couple of interviews. And his recent Sherwoodesque firewalling hasn't endeared him to me. Not good enough to sort out the mess we are currently.

He's clueless and doesn't appear to be any more motivated than the rabble he's failing to organise.  Look at that formation and team today, absolute shite.  Scoring has been a problem, so he plays 5 at the back, with two players in Hutton and Cissokho who are not cut out for the wing back position whatsoever.  Playing that 3 all as centre backs doesn't make it any tighter either, it just means you've got three chances of them fucking up, instead of two.  And quite why Bacuna keeps starting instead of Veretout is beyond me.  And as I said earlier, when you have poor employees, absolutely the worst thing you can do is to keep publicly telling them they're shite.  Shite, motivated players, and you have a slim chance.  Shite demotivated players, and you get the carnage we're experiencing.  He wouldn't stand for Hollis publicly slagging him off, in all probability.

I wonder if his comments about them was because he knows a number of them don't give a fuck and are going through motions, so it was an attempt to get them at least playing for personal pride etc even if they don't give a fuck about the Villa. In his defence I wouldn't want to be in charge of this lot, I can't remember any time where there seem to be so many players at the club with disgraceful attitudes.

The trouble with Garde is he is now in a catch 22 situation. None of the players are actually good enough to be working with or too inexperienced to be consistent, and also unlike Sherwood, he has come into a club with a schism in the dressing room. But who else can he play but the players in the squad. Yes, you could say just play the kids, but we have seen over the last few seasons that relegation battles scar them anyway. Yes, you could drop Richards, but he has the backing of four or five other players he relies on. Drop then all and then we play kids and hope for no injuries otherwise we have to pick one of those players again, (Gabby after Ayew was sent off and Gestade was injured).

However, as other have stated, he seems to be resigned to leaving, getting the excuses in and maybe even trying to get the sack for his payoff. In which case he can fuck right off with most others currently employed in the club.
