I'd rather have him sign up now and start on the day after he season ends. I wouldn't want a new manager associated with this abortion.

I'd accept him being announced now but not take over till the season ends, no problem. It would still give us a lift, but this this is purgatory. It's soul destroying watching Villa this bad.

The quicker the inevitable is confirmed the quicker we'll get a new manager so while I'd never wish us to lose, the sooner relegation is confirmed, the better.

Get Moyes in and give him a few weeks to observe the multitude of problems he needs to fix so we can make a fast start in the summer.

We need Moyes now. The fans need a lift. The idea of losing every game from now till the season ends is very real, so we need him in now to at least put an end to the humiliation and give us something to smile about for a change.
We surely can't fuck up this appointment, surely?

Forget whether he could do the job, you're assuming he wants to come. Who will you blame if he bottles it?

I think we're made for each other. We're a big club desperate for an end to our decline and a return to the big-time and he's desperate to rebuild his reputation after the Man Utd episode. It has to happen.

Ultimately the board will need to sell him a vision of the future. He's smart enough to know it isn't about what is happening right now.

Maybe he'll wait until the end of the season to see what offers are around. That would be the smart thing to do or is he really that desperate as s_h says?

With the right backing of the board and this is a big proviso but if you had the full support from the board including investing in the squad then I think it would be a fantastic time to become Villa manager. You could really sweep out the shit and mold the club to how you wanted it. Never let a good crisis go to waste.

Can't see Moyes coming tbh given a choice. Too much to lose. Not sure if he's the right guy anyway. Think we need someone who hasn't managed any big clubs

No one will touch most off our players if they had a brain.  I think we're stuck with the ******

I think he will wait now and go for Newcastle if they drop. They have a better side than us and possibly more to spend on getting back up.

Well that's it. The question is what offers will Moyes have and will he get better ones than us? My guess would be he wants a domestic job. Hard to think of a PL job that will be open that he'll be considered for. Of the team down there only Swansea have a vacancy and you to think Rodgers is a good bet for that. I can't see anyone else firing their manager. So it will be us or Newcastle realistically.

They've spent 80 million in two.windows and they're going down. Lulz.

I think they'll have nowt to spend bar what they get from sales.

Moyes is sweet on us I reckon.

There's the Ashley factor too. What kind of decent human being would choose to work for that arsehole?

Possibly more to spend.

Or possibly the £25m they blew in January when we decided/were forced into not spending anything was that money to spend.

That's what I think too. And I think a lot of stuff behind the scenes will be done in consultation with him (his people) or with appointing him in mind so that he can get going immediately.
