Remi- It has happened.

[Witton Warrior]

My thoughts and feelings are for Remi Garde today. The inevitable has happened but this is a guy who has been completely shit on by the biggest bunch of charlatans ever masquerading as players of our great club. They are a complete and utter disgrace to the name of Aston Villa. I for one hope that Remi goes on to recover from this and wish him all the best.

100% agree. The players are a fucking disgrace and the fact they will trot out again Saturday wearing the badge makes me feel sick.

Boo 'em on and boo 'em off - the first time we won at home we gave Bacuna, Richards and Guzan pelters...

If there's one thing I will thank Remi Garde for its calling out the executives of the club when he was taking all that shit in the media. It put Fox and Co in the spotlight and proved he wasn't going to be the poodle for the appalling way the club has been run since Lerners arrival. If it's had even a small impact in bringing about the board changes then we need to see that as a silver lining. On the football front he was hamstrung by the biggest bunch of ****** I've ever seen represent the club, I am absolutely seething at what appears to be a total lack of professionalism and application from a large part of the squad. On Remi himself I have to say he could have done better and I had joined the Church of the latter day relegation avoiders during January but that dissipated watching the goals go in against Liverpool. At that point he gave up.

One of these days we'll get a forward thinking coach at the right time for the club.

Just thinking the most appropriate way to encapsulate our season on the review DVD might be that Christmas Special thing they did with Richards laughing his head off. I can't help but feel he's been a voice for negativity and dissent in the backroom. I might be totally wrong though.

He reminded me of Indio in For a Few Dollars More In That.

I'm sure Garde has played a key role in the rebuild of the club even if it didn't translate on the pitch. Even if in the end he wasn't the man to carry us forward, what he will have told Hollis/King/Bernstein/Little will help shape the future structure of the club. And yes it helped in dumping the likes of Fox and Almstadt and it will help in how we handle certain players at the club. Hopefully in years to come he will be seen as one of the architects of the AVWEP (Aston Villa Wanker Eradication Programme).

He gave up at the end of January. I was with him and admired his dignity but he has been sulking for weeks.

I wish he'd have walked after the transfer window debacle - as I'm pretty sure the he would have received the utmost respect from the majority of supporters. That said, the opportunity of the mutually consenting pay-off was probably far too lucrative to ignore...

I don't buy this. Unless Garde told Bernstein, Little, Hollis and King that Villa need to sack their manager and get a new one

we will never know, but I am inclined to agree. the moment he called them out is perhaps the moment the institution started to wake up.

According to Wikipedia there have been nearly 350 Premier League Managers/Caretaker Managers since the start of the Premier League.

I doubt Garde would get into the top 300.

Whatever the reasons, his record is indefensible.

However it ended it wouldn't have if the results were better. That's what did him in the end. But it doesn't mean he hasn't contributed to some of the structural changes that are taking place.

Another great example of looking through a cloudy lens. Anyone who knows anything about how to engineer the best results from great talent fundamentally understands the environment in which you put that talent matters a great deal.

Put Sir AF in a pile of stinking shit and it will stil end up stinking like shit.

It's relative of course, but Fergie was dumped in a pile of shit when he joined Man United in 86(?), player power, drinking culture, acceptance of mediocrity, a big club on the slippery slope. But he had a proven track record at Aberdeen and wasted no time in letting the players know who the boss was. Are you saying Fergie wouldn't have sorted our players out and got more than 2 wins in that time?
