Someone asked MO'N if he'd be interested in returning at his Ireland press conference tonight.  MO'N looked totally off guard and embarrassed.  He's out of contract in the summer - just sayin'!

Looking at the bookies list, not that they know anything, I hope more than ever that the board look further than the obvious (unless Moyes will come). The top 20 runners according to Betfair:

The only ones I'd even look at from the list:
Moyes, Warburton, Karanka

No thanks to:
Black, Bruce, Monk, MacDonald, Giggs, Dyche, McClaren, Lennon, Rowett, Southgate (although wouldn't mind him as Head of Football Ops), Poyet, McCoist, Davies, Hoddle and especially Nigel Pearson.

I'd be happy to have John 'if I'd had a gun I'd have shot him' Gregory back to work with this squad.
If he had a gun.

Burton and Taylor, Abramovitch and Mourinho, Lerner and that bespectatcled pube-headed ******. No ta!

Pearson would completely crumble under the scrutiny here. As soon as he took a booing at a 0-0 against Rotherham or something he'd lose his shit and say something daft. We need someone who's strict, organised, structured and respected. Moyes.

Say something daft. Or murder a spectator.

We also need someone who can establish us back in the top flight when / if we go up.  I think Moyes would be able to do that.

Moyes gets my vote and I hope he's getting a visit from Sir Brian soon. Just feels like right time all round for us and Moyes - perfect context for him to rebuild his reputation, perfect manager for us.

We can take that as a "no" then.

None of these managerial candidates inspire me to be honest.

Thing is,we aren't in the best of positions to be picky. Or are we? Moyes, I can see the attraction, but he seems so dour.

The chap at Burnley who sounds like he's swallowed a kilo of cigars-no thank you. Burnley were boring as fuck last season in the Premier League and I think we not only need promotion next year, but stability the year after next. He won't provide that in my opinion.
Pearson-no way. Fucking useless.

For me, Id go all out for Eddie Howe or Rodgers. They do know the Championship, were promoted playing good football, and they're not dour or one dimensional.

What has to be factored into what happens to the next manager is the seething, volcanic anger of the fans that has been building to nuclear levels over the last five seasons. Well it has in me anyway.

As has just been said, wait until a 0-0 home draw against Rotherham full of floaty corners, sideways passing, Grealish posing and Gestede loping and the manager gets a booing.  That is when you will find out whether the club has appointed the right manager.  If it is Pearson they better keep a straight jacket in the dugout.

[mr underhill]

nicely put Brian. I wanted DM last time out but was more than prepared to give Remi a chance. Sadly, the club decided not to give him one.

My thoughts exactly Mr U.  Villa need a new manager?  The names that first have come to my mind for all the post MON period have been the 2 Ms - Moyes or Martinez.   Garde seemed to be part of a long, long overdue attempt by the club at intelligent forward planning but we have reverted to type and scrabble about for the quick fix for the next crisis and the one after that.
