When the next manager says Gabby is on fire in training

..... I'll be hoping he means it literally.

For what it's worth, a supposed ITK just called to tell me it will happen within the next 24 hours.

Personally, I'm not quite sure what that's going to achieve at this juncture but I've been less and less impressed with Remi with each passing week and maybe the board are feeling the same way?

On Saturday I was told by a mate who went that he hardly left the bench all game. That tells me that the towel had gone in from him.

Great. Now I know how to recognize a good manager. They don't sit down, but stand up, failing their arms and looking aggrieved throughout the match. Thank you.

Well, it would be on top of a fucking big pile of them.

For christs sake what are they waiting for? Put him out of his misery, he should have gone Saturday night.

Yes. Hurry up. The dice need rolling. 

Again.

To what effect?

Nothing can stop us going under now.  Take the time to appoint / convince the right man and get them set up to hit the ground running at season's end, assuming that they do decide that Garde is indeed damaged goods with this squad.

Nobody needs to be parachuted into the poison pool that is our squad this season.  I'd go as far as to say it could put people off.  "I'll come and take the rebuild job in June, but I'm going nowhere near that car crash this season."

Not quite sure I agree with all of that VID.
if Remi is to get the Spanish archer, then I think getting his replacement in quickly is massively important.
Firstly,  I think the new board will already have identified him.
Secondly, he will need to evaluate the (shite) squad before the season's end so that he make all the decisions through the summer to hopefully have us up and running in August.

Of course, it all depends on it being the right man in the first place.

But why would, Moyes for the sake of argumnet, want to come and have anything to do with this abomination of a season.

He can probably see 80% of what he he needs to see from a Sky+ subscription, or failing that, Randy's personal live feed.  I very much doubt that anyone walking in won't have a clear idea of who they think they can work with and who they would want out of the door by May 31st.  It's not as though our demise has happened under the radar for anyone involved in the game anywhere in Europe.

If it is Moyes, he'll know just about all of our squad from scouting them as pre-match prep for Everton and Man Utd.  The only ones he wouldn't know much about are Amavi, Ayew, Guaye and Veretout, along with maybe Gestede and the youngsters who he would almost certainly keep anyway.

None of that stops the board making a decision and if they decide on a new manager, starting the process.

I can help Moyes in assessing the squad. They're all absolutely shit.

Good afternoon,
Just in from work.
Has he gone yet?
What's the dinner by the way?

Egg, beans and chips

I'd rather be a sausage than an egg

Nothing is going to happen quickly.  If I were say, Moyes' solicitor I would demand two weeks to write the clause in his contract headed "Funds, players for the purchase of" and another two weeks for the clause "Players, disposal of, 1) Agbonlahor Gabriel 2) Bacuna Leandro etc."

Moyes is just paper talk although it would be fantastic if it came off. Have read many things about Moyes and his scouting policy and he was years ahead of most other managers regarding scouting and tracking suitable players. Rest assured he will already have a detailed dossier on all the villa players and that's why I would be amazed if he came.
