Manager for next season

[MoetVillan]

At the rate its going Moyes will be able to buy us by friday

[Tony Erdington]

we are a joke, the appointment will tell us exactly where were going.

I'm now expecting the usual mess that lerner has put on us

[mr underhill]

Getting a cock like Warnock in now would feel like snatching victory from the jaws of oblivion. what a monumental fuck up we have become. There must be some way out of here surely.?

[Matt C]

Nigel Pearson suddenly doesn't look so bad.

I was speaking with a Sunderland supporting friend who said we should go for McCarthy. After spitting out my drink, his argument fell apart when he stated he would get us up but wouldn't know what to do then.

I was talking to a keen manager spotter who says Gus Poyet is on the move back to the UK.  May be worth another hedge on my banker bet on Southgate with Paddy Power.

The new favourite for the Nottingham Forest job I believe, according to paper rumours.

Unless offered obscene £££££ why would any manager (I'll leave out the words 'self respecting') want to associate himself with such a toxic brand as Aston Villa?

My view is that if someone was appointed within the next couple of weeks say, they would end up resigning before the new season starts as more Lerner nonsense emerges.

How many hedges is that, now, Brian? You seem to be covering a lot of bases 😁

As long as Lerner remains, nothing is going to change. So, it doesn't actually matter who the next manager is. We can be assured that he won't be the best man for the job and nor will he be supported by the executive.

[Chris Jameson]

I think it's going to be Peter Mensch, he manages Metallica (Lescott), Red Hot Chili Peppers (Agbonlahor), Muse (Richards), Smashing Pumpkins (Bacuna), Hole (N'Zogbia) and Snow Patrol (Guzan) and is married to the awful Louise (Lerner) so is used to dealing with out and out c**ts and terrible performers.

This. The next manager is an irrelevance in terms whether we recover or not. And anyone genuinely good who takes the role while Lerner is here will only have themselves to blame when their career is blighted by their failure here.

[sid1964]

The next manager will probably be someone like a Grayson or the MK Dons current manager (cant think of his name)

He will be told what to do and to say (in other words a puppet or a muppet)

The statement from Hollis after relegation where he states the criteria for being the next Villa manager, will come back to haunt him!

It is just like the mad hatters tea party!

[ozzjim]

I think it will be Grayson now, after he managed Leeds in a similar state of madness and is liked by Little. Pearson or Moyes won't touch it and the others will want too much money. Grayson has got Preston going in that league on a meagre budget so will be seen as a cheap option.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I was just about to say the same, Brian Little's connection to Grayson makes him favourite now in my book. He did well at Leeds and the fans were furious when he was sacked.
