Manager for next season

[VinnieChase84]

went for nutter , I dont like him but he would get us up and built a great team at Leicester to be fair to him . And Leicester fans and players still rate him .
i just want a team with pride and passion and well organised .

A lot of NP's success at Leicester had a lot to do with his backroom staff also. Who are still at Leicester with claudio.
Let's not get another manager who can't get his own preferred backroom staff 😙

Good point. I voted Other but I guess Steve Bruce (Defender!) would at least almost certainly get us back up without too much fuss. We'd then have to fuck him off post-haste, which doesn't sit well with me, but we've seen how his teams perform once they're promoted.

Brendan Rodgers

I like Rodgers but he's done well at Swansea, who were run, coached and played the right way for years before he got there. He did ok at Liverpool but, again, they had good players who knew what they were doing. I don't know if he could turn our shower of turds around.

Whereas Bruce has lived amongst turds all his managerial career.

We could do far worse.

If Garde does go, I really hope we don't regress to a McLeish throwback type manager in some belief that passing football can't exist in the Championship.

[PaulWinch again]

Whoever it is the decision should be made now. If Garde is staying then both sides have to commit now.

Collymore has just said on SqualkSpowt that Steve Bruce is angling for the job. I bet he fucking is.

Failure to take Hull up this season considering his squad and budget might finish him.

Whatever about Bruce the funds given to Karanka to buy a fat Stewart Downing and Jordan Rhodes, should guarantee Boro 100 points plus.

Burnley minus Ings are very average. Dyche has brought in cast offs like Lowton, Ward, Barton, Kightly and spent their budget on Gray who has burned up the division. It's a fantastic managerial performance from Dyche. But the suspicion remains like Eddie Howe that away from their club that they would struggle.

Hughton has done well with rag tag clubs. Newcastle were in an awful state when they went down and he galvanised the same rotten dressing room into a mid table top division team. Blues were bankrupt and he kept them competitive. Brighton probably the greatest transformation of all with not much money it seems. Norwich didn't quite work out but all in all he has the tools to deal with us if Brighton falter late on.

Rowett has done a great job at Blues but AVFC is decaying institution that he would be well advised to run a mile from.

A decaying institution? Jesus.

And what is the circus in B9?

Bruce would be fine as much it galls me to think of yet another managerial appointment. He'll get us up and then we'd hit the ceiling in the PL. He's proven he has the ability up to a certain point. I think with Rodgers the ceiling would be much higher and he is young enough to use us as a way to really rebuild his career. I don't know that Moyes would want to go back down a league. Rodgers might.

At bit melodramatic isn't it. You'd think the ground was crumbling or something. It's relegation, it's massively shit right now, but it's not like the lights are being switched off or we are riddled in debt and we are going out of business.

Well Bruce getting us up is hardly a given if you look at money he has spent at Hull.

Yep. I wouldn't be unhappy, certainly. Just a little wary.

We'd still be better off than the great majority of sides in the Championship. And it's not like the new manager whoever it is will have nothing to spend. Bruce got the noses promoted twice on next to nothing, and it's not as if he spent a fortune getting Hull promoted the first time.

[PaulWinch again]

I really don't understand this thing of getting a manager who is good at getting promoted, but not much else. I'd rather we just got a good manager. Aston Villa are a very big club and if we are acting correctly we don't need to restrict ourselves to managers who get clubs up and then get them relegated again. I think we should stick with Garde, because he deserves a chance to work under a board that appears to have a plan, but if he's going we should look for better than Bruce.

That's why I'd prefer someone with a higher ceiling than someone like Bruce. You know what you'll get and that's about it. Don't complain when he hits his natural ceiling. It's no different had we appointed Pulis or Allardyce. You know they'll likely keep you up even if it is by the skin of your balls every year. And with Pulis you'll have vowed never to go again to Villa Park because of the hideous nature of the product in the process.
