MacDonald is going to end up having managed us for more matches than Ron Saunders did.

Between MacDonald's first ever match as Villa caretaker and now this spell I think he has managed Villa for as many years as Ron Saunders did. It was definately time for Bruce to go, particularly with the international break coming up. I would hope our owners have somebody already lined up. Everybody wins now as us Villa fans are happy and relieved and Bruce himself will be relieved to be put out of his misery and happy with the knowledge that he will get a big pay off and always be able to say that he only got sacked because us lot couldn't get over the fact he managed Small Heath. Because I don't think we have heard the last of that myth boys and girls.

Today feels like that moment when you know you've finally got rid of that shit on your shoe. Correcting the error stepping in it  almost 2 years ago. He should never have been appointed but hopefully this time we'll finally find our man.

That's the thing with us, every sacking brings joy, then dread and disappointment with the new arrival !!

FFS Can we not just be glad that Bruce is gone before laying into Kevin MacDonald who is once again in a position that he doesn’t want?

QPR at home was the defining moment for me - he hasn't been able to get a tune out of the side since and he had a much more balanced squad in the run in last season than he assembled now. No one likes to see someone fail so publicly, but it was time.
