Next Villa manager

[Dave]

*shrugs*

Definitely not the best manager we've ever hired. Definitely not the worst.

A real Tesco triple-pack sandwich of an appointment. Never going to be close to the top of anybody's list of things that they really want, but will easily provide you enough calories if you're really hungry.

And right now we're virtually starving.

Its Bruce then. A bit meh, could be a lot worse I guess, check the previous managers on that one. We will definitely be better than we have been so far this season. 

[VinnieChase84]

I expect far more from this than when we appointed any of McLeish, Lambert, Sherwood, Garde, RDM
Welcome potato head ✅

[Rigadon]

Allarbruce is fine with me.  We need an old hand who knows the league and how to exit it (upwards).

[LukeJames]

We've signed players who know how to win in this division.

We've now appointed a manager who knows how to win in this division.

We now need to start fucking winning in this division.

[sickbeggar]

I will give him more than 11 games which is a lot more than RDM got from the majority of the fans. After that....well i'm fed up of supporting crap managers when logic says it does more harm than good

[The_ads]

It'll never matter who the manager is, as long as restores some fucking fight and pride. We're in hell now gentlemen. Welcome Steve I'll be getting right behind you mate

[Exeter 77]

As a Villa fan I hope Bruce does well but it doesn't mean I have to like him, a bit like O'Leary.

[The Edge]

So is it Brucie or is the Doc about to spring a massive surprise? Whoever it is will deserve and get our support and respect. If it is Brucie his first press conference will be interesting. Good game good game!

[The Edge]

Stand up potato head stand up potato head stand up potato head stand up potato head.

Murphy is saying Bruce.

I hope he has an assistant beyond Bertschin signed up. At Hull he had Agnew and Phelan, who are both well thought of coaches.

[adrenachrome]

I'm reasonably happy with it being Bruce without jumping for joy about it. Get behind the bloke and it could work out well.

That is how I feel about as do most other Villa fans I have spoken to.

That has been my experience as well.

It won't be Phelan will it

A bit harsh making comparisons with the despicable DOL.
