Michaahhh this summer apparently.

I'd say there is a very real prospect of him trying to reintegrate at least one of those clowns.

To be fair, as much as it pains me after last season, if he can get Micah playing well for us then that's a net positive in this league. Less convinced on Gabby!

It was Phelan, not Stevie Boy that wanted the waste of space known as Micah Richards. I know, I triple checked it.

Bostin'. I think I was hoping that we had more than a Phelan.

Don't worry, going to bed now.

Well we already have the right song for him considering we are shite.

"Cheer up Stevie Bruce, oh what can it mean to a sad bluenose bastard and a shit football team."

No I'm not against Bruce at all, he's probably the best fit out there right now.

Despite being at the centre of some horrible moments for me as a Villa fan, I've never been able to work up any sort of dislike for Bruce. I think he is more than capable of managing us in the pickle we are in right now, beyond that I'm not so sure but then we need to concentrate on the matter in hand rather than what might be.

He speaks well, doesn't seem to hold any bitterness and comes over as very fair minded and that is always important for me as far as Villa managers are concerned.

Here's hoping.

I just want to read the words 'win' and 'Aston villa' in the same sentence again.

Good appointment.  Not exciting but solid and a nice guy.  Wish we'd gone for him in the summer.

Good luck Brucie-  nice to see you.

As long as fans don't have kittens when he says nice things about Birmingham City before we play them.

Managers are allowed to be polite.

Surely it'll be a bit weird for him considering we always shout potato head every time he's in the dugout against us.

Will we continue to say it, only now in a more affectionate way?

It's all theatre. I'd wager he gets that. Don't think we've ever been malicious towards him.
