Garde can't get a reaction out of this lot. It's obvious that there's a divided dressing room. Sherwood may as well have stayed - he could at least fire players up. Steve Bruce would be my choice.

Steve Bruce has a better chance of finding some clothes in his wardrobe that fit him than getting the Villa job.

About the same chance another ex Blues manager had of getting the Villa job in 2011.

It became obvious to me in one of those 4am Villa nightmares that Brian Little has been brought back as insurance to babysit the first team when Remi walks - he just like the rest of us has given up and must be close to saying fuck it im off. Fully expect it to happen this week and gives us a chance to get the right man in before the summer.

Not a chance of Brian taking over as manager again either short or long term.

I doubt he'd want to work with this bunch of players anyway.
Is he still manager of Jersey as well?

Could he? He certainly didn't in any game this season prior to his sacking. What makes you think that would have changed?

Precisely. This is the sort of convenient crap talk more common in these threads these days. Tim Sherwood was a disaster for the club, period. To make the claim he could do something he patently failed to do is nonsense.

He did for a short period last season, but it was clear whatever he did stopped working at half time in the West Ham game and he couldn't get it back.

12 games and 4 points wasn't it? If we had only taken a point a match we would still be in with a chance

He was well on his way to getting us relegated. In fact I'd argue that had last season extended one more game we'd be having this discussion as supporters of a Championship team one year sooner.

You are Paul Merson and I claim my £5.00.
