Manager for next season

[avfcpg]

Hiring Moyes purely to get promoted wouldn't half be some statement of intent!

promotion with moyes lol , we need a manager who has actually got a team promoted from that league

Paul Jewell and Mick McCarthy come on down.

Warnock...oh ffs
Jose hasn't got anyone promoted so he's out the running too...

I think that particular argument has more holes in it than our back four.

Well no we don't. We need a good manager, which Moyes is. I presume you would have turned down Guardiola and Mourinho had they wanted the job then?

I have them pencilled in for stages two and three of our march towards galactic domination.

Moyes has ruled himself out according to the bbc

Bollocks. Pat Murphy:

"The Villa job ticked several boxes for Moyes - including working again with Keith Wyness, soon to be appointed chief executive, a role he filled at Everton for five years, working harmoniously alongside Moyes until 2009.

"The two have since kept in touch, but in the end Moyes felt he had to pass on Villa, even though sorely tempted.

"The field has narrowed now to Nigel Pearson - the preferred choice of the current chairman, Steve Hollis - and Roberto Di Matteo.

"Each is available and have been interviewed by both Hollis and the recruitment team of the new owner, Dr Tony Xai. He will sanction the appointment although Hollis will seal the deal as Dr Xai is still not technically the Villa owner pending Football League approval.

"Villa still hope to confirm their new manager by the end of this week."

It was this bit I didn't get...

"David Moyes has dropped out of the running for the Aston Villa manager's job. On a short list of three, Moyes was strongly tipped to be the new manager after being interviewed last Thursday night, but after mulling over the challenge this weekend, decided to rule himself out.

"I understand the fundamental issue for Moyes was dropping down to the Championship and he had reservations about Villa wanting a swift decision, with a hectic summer ahead for the club's football department."

He had reservations about getting swifly on with the job and how busy it was going to be???  And if you have reservations about dropping down a division, why speak to the club at all?

If the bit in bold is true he isn't the right man - we need somebody with an appetite for turning the club on it's head.

Shame, I think he was just the man. There also doesn't seem to be an obvious alternative for him currently.

[garyshawsknee]

Sounds like he's expecting bigger and better offers.

It's started badly for Xai then
