If I owned the Club I'd ban him from all Villa property for life. Whenever he is a pundit for Villa games I genuinely feel like switching off, indeed, I'd rather hear a Robbie Savage or Mickey Quinn talk Villa.He was still a great player for us so I gloss over the punditry stuff....when was the last time he covered a game for us?Mind you to totally contradict myself I can't stand David Platt for the same reasons! Most negative ex villa player in the media imo unless someone can come up with a better example beyond these two.Ray Houghton. The few times I've seen him punditing on our matches he's been downright hateful. Miserable looking bugger too. Does anyone know what awful thing the club did to him to have him despise is so much?I thought Ray was pretty misreable about us in the MON years but actually in the last few years he seems to have started bigging us up again as we've become much worse for some reason.Bosnich is another one who's not overly positive about us when he's on TS but then again these guys did play for us during our glory days of the 90s so they know how big we should be and how poor we are nowadays.Bosnich tends to talk as if he spent his whole career at Chelsea. And talks like he had a glittering career there too.

Quote from: Bren'd on October 21, 2016, 09:57:17 AMYep, I'd have no problem with Yorke sometime in the future managing us if he'd proved himself elsewhere first. I'm also fully aware that if he did a good job for us he'd be "highly delighted" to be linked to a bigger club and gone like a shot if something like that came up. Which is the reason why he should never be our manager.

I know I've mentioned this before but on TV in Oz they once asked Bosnich which of his former teams he looked out for. His answer (and I quote) "Chelsea because I had a great time there and liked the area." for the record he played about 5 times for them in the LC.Maybe the £45k a week, a serious cocaine habit and Sophie Anderton were what he was talking about but it certainly wasn't his playing record there.Never mentions his embarressing stint at Man Utd ever. File under arsehole.
What's a weapon ?

""Doing a Bozzie" was at one time a euphemism for someone running down his contract, which Bosnich did to us anyway, but for me it became synonymous with someone fucking up a perfectly serviceable career - which Bosnich also did.
Well this report definitely backs up York's case of racism in football (management) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38002436 Only 2 mangers in the English Leagues from black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) background in Chris Hughton and Keith Curle - pish poor in other words and no improvement from the report 2 years earlier.

That's the sad thing. I'm certain there is institutional bias against black managersIt's just not helpful when people like Yorke and sol Campbell say it's what's holding them backMore instructive I think is that Paul ince had to start at mk dons while practically every other former fergie player went straight into a rich championship side, premier league side, or international manager position
