With 9 to play that's a huge gamble. In the summer it's a great appointment but where they are he will have a tough free weeks ahead.

They've lost four of their last five. You could argue it's far more of a gamble not to make a change.

Bonus points for Pearson is he may humiliate that villa hating twat Pat Murphy again.

I don't get why people think Murphy hates Villa, he's not a fan of Lerner that much is clear but I've heard him be very positive about the club and support over the years.

He has a problem with Randolph...as do some of us, but not the Villa.

Based on those accounts and idiotic avoidable costs there is no chance Garde will be sacked, which I'm happy with.

well if he stays he's really been fucked over - anyone worth a bean will be sold (if possible, (obviously not the Flabby one or Bacuna etc.) leaving lots of dross and  a tiny pot to piss in transfer budget wise. Awkward.

Murphy's having a meltdown in Twitter about Villa's radio silence.

I agree. He's had a problem with Lerner since day 1, he's pretty fair with Villa though. Let's face it we've deserved the stick we've had over the last few years.

we don't need to pander to the media or people like Pat Murphy but presenting a friendlier face can work in our favour in how we are reported and perceived. Why make enemies where you don't have to?

Still dont want a British manager but if we did then Pearson/ Rodgers would be fine by me. Both are nutcases but are actually good managers. Bonus points for Pearson is he may humiliate that villa hating twat Pat Murphy again. I would be very happy to see that.

Yep because the foreign managers we've had have been brilliant for us!!

They haven't done badly for lots of other teams. Past performances of Villa managers should have no impact on who we appoint.

Quite. 

Those happy with Garde.  What has the guy done to convince you he's the man?

It's got jack to do with foreign / uk.  More about a handful of points in 4 months.
