I'm starting to think it doesn't really matter who the manager is when the owner is so determined to destroy the club.

We could appoint Simon Grayson, Chris Kamara, Pep Guardiola, Moyes or the Beast from The Chase for all the difference it'd make. We're fucked.

The Beast from The Chase is a Rugger Bugger.  Also he is even fatter than that fat fuck,  Flabby. Probably better off with The Dark Destroyer, although he is a Chelsea fan.

King effectively said the same thing in his resignation & there's no motive for hlim, as a fan nor a professional, to walk away. Other than that we're fucked whilst Lerner is in command.

The only other possible reason is that he doesn't want to be associated with the sale of the club to some other arsehole.

Don't disagree, John2710. I just wonder how far we will fall whilst Lerner remains at the helm.

One day Lerner will be gone.Having a decent manager will reduce any further damage and having looked at Grayson's CV,I am very impressed.Getting Preston to just outside the play offs on a budget that Ma Lerner would accept.I need to clutch at some straws,otherwise my supply of malt will take another hammering.

Us, Bolton, Crewe and Dagenham & Redbridge are bankers every week to lose and someone has cleaned up this season. That person is my bookie as the 5th team I usually stick on in my 'loss accumulator' always seems to go and bloody well win (the bastards).

Manager for next season should therefore be the bloke at Bet 365 who has taken a fortune off me this year.
His stats:
Played 30 or so,
won 29 or so and his sole loss (my sole win) wasn't enough for me to shout about.
Whatever his name is get him in sharpish.

Just to add to the wonderful week we are all having... Ian Holloway has made his entry into the top five odds for the Villa job. That'd be fun, wouldn't it?

His disparaging remarks a few years now describe us perfectly.

I have a feeling that Brian Little will be our manager at the start of next season.

It would be quite a cynical move if that happened.  They know the fans wouldn't give Sir Brian stick and it would buy them time to cut costs further and land us more in the brown stuff.  There's a danger here that, out of a sense of loyalty to Villa, Sir Brian will end up being used and spat out by Lerner and Co.

I think half-arsed is a little kind after this week especially. One-tenth-arsed?

That would be quite a coup persuading the former Gainsborough Trinity boss to leave his current job with Jersey to manage our car crash.

How quickly this thread has become of secondary, or lower, importance with all the other shite going on.

Exactly the right time for the club to appoint whichever buffoon they want.

Which has just broken my dream - I kept waking up because of it - we had appointed Southgate and I was gutted I even remember thinking that whoever on here mentioned it was right. Villa are even affecting my sleep with their poison, is there no escape?

Ronny Deila is leaving Celtic in the summer so they may be competition if we are still in for Moyes.

I don't think it would take Moyes too long to choose between us do you?

Irrelevant thread while Lerner is still in charge.
