Preston North End v Aston Villa Match Thread

What about iron man Jedinak, what's he up to today?

Jedinak? Sounds more like Jedinackered to me.

What about iron man Jedinak, what's he up to today?

Fractionally better than sitting on his own in the centre circle interfering with himself, by the sounds of it.

[Ian.]

2-0 down at Preston...

I thought we'd enjoy this league?

[auntiesledd]

I do wonder if RDM can survive this now

There's such a pervasive air of failure at villa though, I don't know what will sort it out

Getting in somebody who actually has a clue about setting up & properly managing a Championship football team might be a a good start.

[Ian.]

I think we've been flogged a load of dead wood this summer.

[remy]

Well at least it's 2 weeks to the next game.

[pauliewalnuts]

I just don't know how he can fail to spot the inherent midfield weakness in line ups like he's put out today.

What on earth does he think is going to happen? Does he really think it is going to work? Really?

[CJ]

We need someone that knows how to turn something like this round. I would get Sam in tomorrow if I was Xia. He knows how to win at all cost at this level. 

I wanted Allardyce in this time last year - missed opportunity now as I think there's a chance he may be banned from football for a while

[gpbarr]

We are in a mess because of many things - appointing inexperienced and young managers being foremost in my mind.

This isn't the time or the place for a young prospect - we need a die hard, charismatic, and no nonsense manager and it has to happen fast.

RDM ain't going to turn this around

[Monty]

People talk about Warnock, Big Sam etc - what in our playing squad makes people think that would work? We must not hire a relegation firefighter manager with the remit of building a squad of big fucking lumps - we've had quite enough disjointed thinking up til now.

[pauliewalnuts]

Get Rowett or Bruce in.

Just get rid of this fucking joker, don't make the mistake of persisting too long as we did with Lambert.

[kippaxvilla2]

I honestly think we are going to do a man citeh.  Without the success at the end.

[oldtimernow]

lucky to get away with a 2 goal deficit there

[Marton]

I do not get it...is he dumb for real?

 You couldn't pick a worst team from our current squad if you tried with the exception of Richards and Kozak. He doing this on purpose to get out? No one is this clueless...

[Ian.]

I'd love for us to get Rowett in
