Booooooooo. Mr E out! It's time we gave Mr F a chance to bring his own links in. We'll never attract the Mr Ps, Js and Qs of this world but I can't bear to see this once great site sink so low. At least Mr F's links will do a shift and take us to a real website. That's all we need right now, a bit of pride.

I've got to the stage now where I am totally undecided who I want our next manager to be. Originally I wanted Moyes but I suppose the biggest factor will be who actually wants the job. We are a fuckin mess and I don't care who comes in now as long as they can sort out the playing side. Perhaps Pearson would make a good choice..perhaps he has learnt from his mistakes. I am at the point now where I don't care who he would upset or threaten as long as he can deliver a decent team.

Mister E's link: http://www.winnersports.co.uk/nigel-pearson-set-appointed-aston-villa-fc-manager-20399


Ta - don't know why it didn't work (after over 8,800 posts, the technology still beats me from time to time).

The article is really a rehash of the stories from earlier this week. It's not new news and nothing that suggests anything is confirmed. Not to say it that might not be true.

Watch the 'fuck off and die' video on YouTube and tell me you wouldn't have reacted the same way. It's disgusting vitriolic abuse by one numbskull and Pearson, as any human being would do, reacts. It's not like he dragged the bloke out the crowd and have him a good shoeing.

Are you his Agent?
no i am

I'm genuinely undecided on Pearson. An arsehole, yes, but at least he's tomorrow's arsehole if you like. And he'd come with less of the piss taking and air of capitulation that a McCarthy type appointment would.

That is true. He's forceful and a bit fashionable in some sense, I suppose, so it's wouldn't just be giving up.

If it is going to be Pearson, which I still sincerely hope it isn't, I think it'll be done this week. If it isn't done this week, I think someone else is the top target.

Either way, the first words out of the new manager's mouth, whoever it may be, really need to avoid relating to 'a clean slate' and 'everyone getting a fresh chance'. This lot have had enough chances.

Yes with the exception of certain players who should never play for the club again. We may as well start our preseason prep as soon as relegation is confirmed.
