In a best football GIF competition, yes. As a manager, hell no.

I can't understand why Pearson is not in place already.

The love for Moyes is perplexing, he is long out of the Championship , failed in Spain and at United and has no Midlands football contacts
I agree gaz , Mick mc Carthy  is better qualified than moyes for the job as he has got a club promoted to the prem in the past  , I dont care if moyes done alright in the prem with  Everton. We are not in the prem We need a manager to get us promoted ASAP , Cross the prem bridge if or when we come to it

But if promotion to the premier is the most important factor,  Alex McLeish, Paul Lambert, Neil Warnock, Micky Adams, Adie Boothroyd and Paul Jewell are good options.

I'd much prefer us just to appoint a good manager.
I believe it is the most important factor , no point appointing ex managers but i would put bruce , mcarthy or dyche in the job ahead of moyes

Wow.

It is short term thinking that is partly responsible for our plight. If we get promoted with a squad not up to the task of competing in the PL then we will come straight back down. Of course promotion has to be the main focus but it cannot be with a "cross that bridge when we come to it" approach to what happens next.

Spot on Chris. Moyes has proven himself to take a poor side to survival and build it over time to a sustainable one. Pearson has shown himself to have 19 points after 29 games with a side that are now about to win the league 12 months on.

Alex Ferguson's only promotion was from the Scottish second division. Bob Paisley didn't even achieve that. Graham Turner managed it though.

Agree Chris.  I think we should be thinking with at least the next three years in mind. Ideally that will be one year in the Championship and two in the Premier League.  We should not only be thinking about going up, but about staying up and progressing from there.

Whoever took over from Ferguson was going to look like a failure, how much has Van Gaal spent since Moyes to make Man United look very ordinary? I can't believe anybody really thinks that Villa would be better off with Bruce or McCarthy than Moyes. If Moyes is showing the slightest interest in taking the job they should act fast and give him what he wants because we aren't going to get better.
