Jim White SSN - I hear new Aston Villa chairman Dr Tony Xia met with Roberto Di Matteo last week - but two other contenders remain in the frame tonight.

If, as has been widely speculated, the new managerial appointment is imminent, that would seem to rule out candidates currently in employment. Hopefully this means no Pulis.

Shame that cock Pearson is still unemployed though.

Fucking hell. We're looking at more than one option. That's a positive after years of having only one targets.

Di Matteo is fine, definitely better than the other tired names going around. I never really liked his teams football though, they played the same sort of tactical mush we saw Mcleish and later Lambert picked but he had far better players.....

If Mr Wyness and Mr Xia are reading this and other websites, as has been suggested in the media, please appoint a manager to galvanize the fans and to bring the fans and club closer together.

I still blame Gregory. It was only one goal. Had we bothered attacking at any point, we might have managed to score one too.
Gregory completely screwed up; Chelsea were there for the taking.

My personal favourite would still be Bernd Schuster, he'd be magnificent mad man and if I'm not mistaken, he'd certainly instill discipline into our rotten lot. :D

Can we not have the Sevilla manager instead?

I still think Moyes would be the best bet overall but as long as we're offloading 70% or more of the first team squad De Matteo would be a good shout also. If for some reason we're going to be stuck with most of the scumbags it's Pearson all the way.

It's now a lot easier to sell the future of the club to a top manager.
