Didn't John Percy say we were looking at a manager who wasn't even in the betting?

Looking at it from Terry's perspective, it's a fantastic opportunity to work daily with such a great Coach. It's a very smart move on his side and should help him develop into the Manager he wants to be long term. Comparisons with Lampard should be shelved for a few years. Let's see where both are in 5 years time. My money is firmly on Terry.

If you listen to the Brentford fans wishing Smith all the best as it was a lifelong ambition to come to Villa, then I really hope in a good few years and when he is ready we can do the same when JT eventually takes up a Managers role elsewhere - especially if it was with ChelseaAlthough we maybe a bigger team than them by then
Just a quick request - can we now please stop all the Appleyard shit and give our assistant coach some basic respect by calling him by his real name.
It's only about five, maybe three, people on an internet forum who call him Appleyard you know. Nothing to worry about really.
