Moyes is a no brainer. knows how to rebuild a club and the myth of Everton being boring - I seem to remember some good games against villa and them regularly upsetting the big boys .

Birmingham mail are ruining a more embellished version of it too.

I think it's gone a bit quiet because in all of this there is the fact Remi is still in place!!

Don't want Monk.

Sorry Ads I did not know about the Express story.  I stopped reading that organ when Giles (Peter not Johnny or Ashley) retired.

Not need to be sorry.

My own feelings is that this has come from Moyes' people so they will have leaked it to a source they know. The reasons for doing so might be to create some public pressure. Who knows and as ever, time will tell.

Of the names being banded about, Moyes is the only one that makes me sit up and take notice. I would appreciate someone to just stabilise Villa and get the basics at the club right again intially. Moyes has shown he can do that elsewhere. I think he'd enjoy it at Villa and it might end up being his best contribution in Football, which would be something considering what he did at Everton.

Moyes is a good manager.

My reticence in wanting him to take over is due to an irrational distrust of Scottish managers. McNeal, McLeish, Lambert and McDonald (caretaker) have all been really shit. It doesn't give me good feelings about a new Scot rocking up at the Villa.

Putting my rational head on, and talking to my Everton supporting mates, I think he would be a safe pair of hands. Think I prefer the idea of Pearson (who would kick some ass and is more in the mould of Ron Saunders) or Eddie Howe (in a similar position to GT1 when he joined us). That said if Moyes joined I would get fully behind him.

Yeah, after all it was a bad day for the club when George Ramsay watched a kick about on Aston Park and reckoned he could improve on what he saw.

Moyes would get my backing. Pearson I think is an accident thats just waiting to happen again somewhere.

We have the Scottish Lion Rampant on our shirt, George Ramsay and William McGregor were Scots, I think the good outweights the bad.

We're in the Championship, a number of our supporters think we're headed down again, and wanting Moyes is even an argument?

I don't get it either.

As somebody else pointed out, if you wanted a signal that we still think we're a big club and that we're prepared to try and act the part again, getting a manager as well known and in my view, as good as Moyes, would be a big step towards that.

Indeed not wanting him is absolutely bonkers.

Try telling that to Man United and Real Sociedad supporters.

Replace Garde with Pearson, Pulis, Warnock or any other has been or never were, give me Garde. Replace Garde with Moyes, give me Moyes all day long.

We are where we are and if the best manager is available for the circumstance we find ourselves in, don't miss the opportunity.

This is kind of where I am. If Moyes is the best out there then I hope we get him. I'm just too demoralised to get excited about the next manager decision considering Randy's just got about every one wrong.

I'm optimistic because it won't be Randy and Fox/Faulkner in his flying motor off to appoint the next manager. It will be Hollis/Bernstein/Little that will be very much involved and hopefully in place to deliver a silky uppercut to his chin when he suggests Pulis or Jewell.
