"The reasons why Tony Pulis wouldn't julp ship to join Aston Villa."  Do people actually get paid for writing this stuff?

lightweight citizens or not, at least we have been spared any of the current crop being caught pissing in pint glasses at a major sporting event

Very true, but we did train one of them
 

Both of them!  Collins and Carruthers were both with us as youngsters.

Collins was in the car with bannon when he got breathalised too.

There was a lot of talk of us going for that Galtier fella instead of Garde. How is he getting on this season?

Got overthrown when he lost heavily in the South Atlantic back in 1982 I think

Went down very well in crepe couture, by all accounts.



Westwood would point well in that. Suit Gabby's girth too.

It would need to be inverted to fit Gabby.

St Etienne having another good season, top 6 so could make Europa league again.

Personally my two choice as managers would be either Mark Warburton as he got Brentford playing some outstanding football and I feel with his business background he could get some structure to our training and coaching. Would imagine his compensation clause at Rangers wouldn't be that high either given their financial issues.

Failing that I'd be happy with Gary Monk. Poor few months this season but on the whole I thought he did a good job at Swansea.

Can't get either of those two in, I'd just get a quick fix and get rid of them as soon as we go up. In dream land hopefully we'd have been taken over by then and I'd break the bank to get in Quique Flores as he's probably my favourite manager in the league currently.

And then I wake up next to Susan Boyle who says she's going to be the next manager....

Maybe there's no need to be so negative?

The last time we were relegated the Watford manager dropped down a division for us, because we plainly have, given time, a bigger potential.

And we used to (and maybe still do) pay our managers more than bloody Watford do

My concern is that the money we have to spend getting rid of Garde and co. will eat into what we can offer the next incumbent.  I'd be very surprised if the next manager will currently be in work.

David Moyes - yes please for me

[Matt C]

Seconded. All his coaching staff available too.

[David_Nab]

TBH for Moyes taking it shows balls of steel on his behalf , there is no half measures either he gets us up becomes a hero and salvages his reputation or fails and spends his days sitting on the couch on MOTD

[ozzjim]

If Moyes wants it there is not even a conversation to be had surely? Just appoint the bloke, and get it sorted.

[wozwebs]

Yes, don't fuck this one up Villa (been saying that for 6 years, falling on deaf ears every time!!) Express also reporting it although same newspaper company:

Sources close to Moyes have indicated the Scot would not be interested in any other job outside of the elite other than Villa, where he believes he could build a team to come straight back and at the same time restore his own standing.
