Mr Collymore is putting his name forward again. According to his Sunday people column, there are only two ex Villa players in the Premier league era who's names are known globally. Dwight Yorke and himself.

Putting himself forward for what...?

My mate is a Foxes fan and Steve Walsh used to do the co-commentating for Radio Leicester and he said never a game went by without prostituting himself for the manager's job shamelessly.

I'm actually shocked Collymore's added Yorke to the list.

Collymore is more famous for his off the pitch "antics", than anything he did on the pitch, at least for Villa.

I'm not even sure he's that famous outside of the UK and Ireland.

Try word association with anyone who's heard of him. The first will be "Ulrika", the next "dogging"

I know it is a pretty radical idea, but if we get rid of Fox, Almstadt and Reilly, why don't we try and bring in people who have experience in those roles at football clubs?  Even more radical would be the notion of trying to get people who had been somewhat successful in them.

Not premier league player but Andy Gray is probably still more famous than most other ex Villa players. I know he is not everyones cup of tea but I still hold his time with us in high regard and I believe he still has the best wishes for our club.
