Eric Black

[PaulWinch again]

Another hideous selection today, can't wait until he's no longer involved.

[ChicagoLion]

The bloke is a Fkin idiot. A complete and total waste of space.

[tomd2103]

Without wishing to exaggerate, I don't think two fans plucked from the crowd could have picked much worse teamd than Black and his mate.  Some achievement to be the worst manager of recent times, but I think he's managed it.

[mr underhill]

We've cornered the market in buffoons haven't we?

[RichardBatchelor]

Is he even worthy of the description 'buffoon'? The man is a downright sadist.

[old man villa fan]

What did Ferguson put in the water up at Aberdeen. Black and McLeish must have been drinking from the same pot.

[Villafirst]

Be glad to see the back of him asap. Which buffoon decided he should be the stand - in manager? I wish Sherwood was in charge! Crap decision making yet again from the hierarchy.

[andyh]

Spineless, gutless twat.

[curiousorange]

I know people have said that there was nothing to be done with this squad, but Black's been nothing but a mannequin in a tracksuit. He's been paid to be a presence on the Villa bench and nothing more.

[Ian.]

The bloke is very negative I will give that, but he ain't the problem within. Hopefully he'll be gone and we'll have new owners and a manager very soon and we can all move on.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Dreary one note downer. Should never be anywhere near the first team of any club regardless of league.

That said he didnt lose today. Which is probably the very best he is capable of.

[in exile]

He's a knob, end of

[jwarry]

I reckon he is a first class graduate of the school of Pulis

[supertom]

One more dodgy Scottish manager at the club and I'll be voting to bomb Scotland off the fucking map. Moyes was my number one choice but I've gone right off him. Too dour. Too Scottish.
I still like Shortbread and Iron Bru though.

I take that as an insult to us fans.I would love to hear the tactical discussions, sorry discussions,he has with his assistant and players.
