Neville and Brian Kidd rumoured to be going with Jose to United.
Martinez mentioned for us again tonight.

I'd take Martinez.

But will he be happy with being fourth choice?

He'd have to lump it. How many demands can a pair of eyebrows and a scratched bollock make?!

I was speaking to someone earlier who suggested that now it looks like shagger Giggs is going to leave Man U. It could be worth taking a punt and give him his first job as a manager. :o

Giggs and Neville would be a good combo in D1,

Hahahaha, youre funny  8)

No thanks to Martinez. I still like him, but he's turned us down twice already and I don't fancy us crawling to him a third time.

The media have been chasing shadows on this story for weeks... None of them are close to it at all based on the widely contrasting stories they're peddling.

The media are proper getting on my tits recently. I mean, why does it even exist in the form that it's in?! Basically, journalists write completely fabricated stories or ones based on something off the rumour mill and 99% proves to be just that whilst the one story that looks vaguely like it was true, ends up being the scoop.

It's just like printing everything that 20 blokes said down the pub one night. Or on a fan forum.

Martinez? - no thx.
Sven? - no thx.

Since Howe and de Boer are unlikely to be persuaded to come to Villa, I'd say we are indeed down to the two most mentioned in the press. It's going to be Pearson or RdM, isn't it?!

most likely but we have a habit of confounding the media in  our often left field choices of manager so who knows. Dr T might pull a surprise rabbit out of the hat.

Surely the fact Moyes wasn't actually offered it according to the more respected press and that Di Matteo us coming for a second round of talks suggests he would sooner live at home and manage us than up root to Lazio. I reckon he is more likely now. 

And Pearson would still say yes. Hardly teams lining up for him are there!

Pearson can fuck off if he thinks he deserves to be on another stupid shortlist of one. Leave him to his rantings and stranglings.

According to the Mirror Moyes is on a short list of NINE for the Everton job. That's a very long short list.

I hope that if it is a choice between Pearson and RDM, that we choose Pearson!

If it is RDM, then I will have to think carefully about renewing my season ticket
