Dean Smith ..... Villa fan ...has passion ..... done excellent job at Walsall and Brentford

Smith is Villa through and through. Plus Brentford made us look like donkeys at VP.

And why bloody not?
Probably the best team ive seen at VP so far
I'm sick of being linked with the usual dinosaurs.
How about giving a Villa fan a go whose career is definitely on the up.


I'd love him as our manager but the job is way too big for him.

Why do you say that? Maybe he's exactly what we need..?

Alladyce? Warnock? Bruce? - I won't be here if any of these jokers breeze in.
Hughton is the best of a bad choice.

I wouldn't want Warnock, but would grudgingly accept the other two.  It's a step we have needed to make to address the malaise at the club for a number of years now, but have skirted round the issue with makeweight appointments.

I know things are Superbad when I start thinking that Warnock could sort us out.

And that time is right now folks.

The combination of being moderately intelligent and without a rampant ego should see him safe of this shipwreck.

The biggest job he's had is Brentford. He was a lower divisions player. He's a great bloke, he's doing well but I can't see being doing what we need now. He's Turner and we need Taylor.

Neil Warnock at Villa park? I realise we have fallen a long way, but for f**ks sake that would do if for me.

I said exactly the same on Friday to my old man.  Problem is, who is Taylor??

To be quite honest Dave, we as a club are sinking lower and lower. I love Villa with all my heart like everyone on here. I put them in front of most things in my life.
It would be a great story but I probably agree with you.

We"re sinking though. Look what was happening to Marc Albrighton while Smith brought little Brentford to VP and for 1 hour outplayed us.

I think we"d ruin him. Not the other way round. Why manage this mess when you can continue your career on an upward curve.

He's a fuckin' nutjob and he courts controversy, but......

He can organise a struggling side into competitive unit, and they'll work like dogs for him. That would make a huge difference to us for a start.

He comes with baggage but I would take him over many of the names mentioned. This is a major disaster recovery job.

Who wouldn't outplay us now?
Honestly, I seriously think at the moment,on form we're in the worst three teams in this league.

Well yes, quite. We tried a 21st century version of Taylor with Lambert. Remind us how that worked out again?  I can't see a problem with Smith, under the circumstances.
