The Steve Clarke appointment is interesting and very welcome.

The excellent Jim white sky sports  announced on his Twitter a wee while before it was any where hes always reliable on manager and transfer rumours as he's itk.  Old school journo and in with current lot of football family

You are the first person to put excellent and Jim White together.
Well done, another first.

just spoke to my brother in law who is a albion fan says both are decent in their own right ...........BUT  with di matteo he had a very bad reputation as being bone idle and left everything to his no2 with newton . thats where clarke comes in done well at albion finished 8th on the back of hodgsons team

The only thing they have in common he said as soon as they got in a hole with results they was clueless getting it turned round lets just see what happens .

I like Steve Clarke

Welcome lads i'm not unhappy at all

[supertom]

I think Di Matteo on his own his a pretty decent appointment. I think alongside Clarke, that makes it a bloody good appointment. I'm happy with that. Much preferred to getting Pearson, who whilst he'd have sorted the dressing room out, is too much of a tosspot and wouldn't have lasted longer than 18 months.

I do feel relieved we didn't go for Pearson in the end, although I'm still wary of him potentially doing a good job at Derby.

It's like when you decide not to go out with a girl, but then watch with interest when she gets with someone else, questioning whether you made the right decision.

But then you take comfort in the knowledge that the other guy is the one getting toothy blowjobs and verbal abuse.

Perhaps that conversation my son had with Vialli about it all being done and dusted a long time ago was not so far from the truth.  Welcome RDM and your team, especially Steve Clarke.  If Eric Black phones, don't take the call.

'Ma non comprendo...why do you keep telling me to play Lauren Bacall ahead of Traore?'

[Bad English]

Have they fucked Agbonlahor off to Chasetown yet?

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

Probably the best we could've hoped for I reckon.

Speaking to a WBA fan the other day who said they played really attacking football when he got them promoted from the Championship. The anti-Pulis.

I'm happy with this.

[Des Little]

How can BBC get the scoop even before it's on the official Villa site?

Anyway, happy with that.  Big, big summer ahead.

They got laid off I think

[TonyD]

RDM on his tod= meh.   But for some reason,  add in Clarke and I like it, a lot.
