Manager for next season

[peter w]

because we're Aston Villa. The same reason why mourinho would probably fancy the challenge also.

[mr underhill]

respect Peter, but the chosen one wouldn't touch us with a barge pole. And I honestly don't think Sam would either. Like you, I might think Villa is the greatest club in the world but sadly, many others don't.

[Mister E]

he was the football equivalent of having the wild shites after a few bad beers

Who?
John Carver, Steve Carver or Martin Jol?

The answer's right in front of us Mister E.

We're getting Steve Martin

He'll be perfect for us.

Used to be fantastic, his greatest achievements coming before the period for which he is best known these days, which was in the late 70's and early 80's, hasn't consistently done anything of note since but there have been a couple of high points and his later output has been of, shall we say variable quality.

We've had several comedians for managers recently ... "Larff? I nearly peed meself!"

Lambert and Sherwood were The Men With No Brains

MON was The Jerk.

[mr underhill]

sorry I was referring to John Carver being enough to give anyone the wild shites. I honestly think I'd rather have Nigel.

[Risso]

John Carver would be hilarious. 

[Drummond]

Mick McCarthy is now second favourite and Moyes drifted to 6-1.... Oh dear God.

[in exile]

May as well have kept Garde

[ciggiesnbeer]

May as well have kept Garde

Indeed. Garde's results have been terrible but no worse than some of the horrendous runs Mick has put together in his time. At least I had hope that Garde wanted us to play a modern style once he has a squad he liked. With McCarthy we all know exactly how we will play and its not exactly thrilling.

Did I hear right earlier that they've said no has been approached as yet?  A prospective manager that is.

[Richard E]

That was what 5 Live were saying this afternoon, yes.

[kippaxvilla2]

So they must be after someone in a job already maybe....waiting for their fate to be decided.  I reckon it's Dyche.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Not necessarily, people like Brendan Rodgers have yet to secure employment for next season. Martinez could be kicked out at Everton and Moyes might hope they offer him a return ticket. Then we have the promotion chasing managers. We're fishing in a very pool so it makes sense to try and find the best tiddler in there.

As that bloke on five live last night when everyone was expecting Redknapp to be appointed England manager Bernstein went for Woy.  So he might spring a surprise.
