Dr T has pulled the trigger

[brian green]

It is a results driven business and the one thing you do not have the luxury of is time.

Last January when the board chose not to back Remi Garde and make a fight of staying in the Premiership I saw a future where we could very easily become the new Leeds.  There were three lines of defence to prevent that happening.  The first was to fight like bastards not to go down.  We capitulated.  The second line of defence was to use the end of last season to hit the ground running.  Eric Black was more concerned with his nice earner at Southampton and let us blow in the wind.  The third line of defence against us doing a Leeds was to spend money on better players and organise them into a winning combination.  The third line of defence has failed.  Incoming players with the odd exception have been as poor as the players they have replaced.

 On what we have seen so far, 9 games including Luton, this set of players under RDM is no better than Remi Garde and his squad.  Be fiercely loyal to RDM, that is admirable but don't expect it to do us much good.

RDM is looking and sounding more and more like Martinez. Talks a fabulous game, comes across as quite erudite, but it is completely hollow.

When is David O'Leary going to get back in the bloody game?

Seriously? Are you actually suggesting that deeply unpopular twat should come back to the Villa? If your not I apologise in advance.

No, never!
I tell you what though, I'd bet Sherwood would do better with this squad!

No, he wasn't.

I really feel for Dr Tony. He has reputedly parted with the thick end of 150 million for this garbage. Just hope he keeps faith in the club even if he loses it with RDM.

Your probably right but no one has seen fit to employ Tim the tinkerman yet have they?

Phew! Thank Fuck for that. You just saved my cat from a kicking! (that was a joke BTW.  I don't have a cat)

Chaps, some perspective please.  RDM has had eight games.  We can still go up, and we won't go down.  If we had, say, 2 points from 8 then I'd be worried.  It's a case of holding onto leads, not scrapping everything we've been doing so far.  The wins will come with time; be patient and watch the team click.

There's no evidence for that. You might as well be saying Jesus will return and solve the Middle East crisis.

The objective evidence is that we are getting worse.

I don't think a professional statistician would call 8 games an adequate sample size. And I definitely don't think he'd call the last two poor performances where we have deteriorated adequate

Agree with this. It looked like they arrived as a team and I don't remember anyone calling for him to be manager.

Agree - especially when it's been so out in the open that everyone expects/wants us to get back up at first time of asking.
How long do we give to ignore the facts and wait for it to click? I work in sales and if I'm 33% aganst 100% two thirds into a quarter then I'm on the line....
