Manager for next season

[brackley]

Just what is it with Pat Murphy? He seems to have an axe to grind about this club and still sounds delighted that we're in trouble.

[Brend'Watkins]

Gary Neville is now available.  We can then keep Gabby as he'll touch the ball maybe 10 times in a game.

[Durham58]

If Burnley are promoted again then in my view Sean Dyche will be the outstanding candidate.

For me Moyes is yesterday's man, tainted by failure.  I can't see the appeal at all, I'd prefer Pearson.

I haven't listened but it is a long time since we behaved like a big club so it is not that outrageous a comment.

To be fair, he said "massive club", and we're nowhere near being a massive club. I honestly think there's been a bit of misplaced arrogance over our imagined status, a sense of entitlement if you will, which has contributed to our slide. We're not nearly as big and important as some of us think we are, and we have to realise that absolutely nothing can be taken for granted any more.

He mentioned Brian Little and said "the last Villa manger to win a trophy, 20, YEARS, AGO, how's that for a reality check to all the Villa fans that keep banging on about it being a massive club" fucking twat. I wonder if he talks like that when mentioning Everton, Newcastle, Sunderland who all last won something more than 20 years ago.

He probably would if they were on his patch.

[mr underhill]

a knobhead who seemingly has an axe to grind regarding Villa because Randy wouldn't grant him an audience.

To be fair to Newcastle they did win the Northampton Hospital Charity Shield in 2012 and the Dublin Challenge Trophy in 1997. Other than those, their last proper silverware was in 1955.

Murphy has his nose out of joint - he's the BBC Midlands Football Correspondent, yet has no access to the regions biggest club.

He thinks he is entitled to have direct access to Lerner, and always bangs on about it.

Whereas Pearson has nothing but an unbroken string of successes and glories.

That Murphy / Lerner moan came years ago,
 I can't believe people actually believe it still bothers him, do people really think he wakes up every morning and tries to write bad things about villa because a Randy wouldn't speak to him

also there is plenty on here over the years that have wanted Randy to say a bit more

But hey feel free to carry on peddling the myths and shit if it makes you feel any better

How do you know it doesn't? You're guessing as much as anyone else but seem to believe that your opinion is fact.
