Why not Woy ?
We want someone steady to get us up playing reasonable football.
Short term appointment
The dynasty can come later

I said on the other thread. Don't think small. If Dingle-fucking-hampton, a club who had home gates in the 80s equivalent to most of our away followings  at the moment, who have done fuck all since McCarthy was looking for Communists hiding under middle-American beds, before JFK had even chucked one up Ms Monroe, let alone got shot in the mush by Tonev on the Grassy Knoll, then we can attract better than Dean Smith. Or nobodies of questionable talent like that.

Manuel Pellegrini, as an example, would be a manger of pedigree who has the language and the ability. A bucket load of cash and the promise of more in May for him and lots in June-August to spend. Why not? He's kicking tyres at the moment.

Somebody like that, if we're going to drop Bruce, is where we should be aiming. Spend BIG on a proven manager for once. We never, ever seem to do this. Sometimes we get lucky with Taylor and Little, even Gregory had his moments, but was cheap.

But this squad is ridiculous for this league. Grealish, Kodjia, Adomah, McCormack all weren't even on the bench. Hogan, Snodgrass, Jedinak, Lansbury an Icelandic international with lovely hair, were ready and waiting to come on. It is absolutely criminal to be chugging along.

I have seen reports this morning on Facebook - the Aston Villa Worldwide Group - that Paul Lambert is a candidate! They reckon with  a big budget squad he might do a good job. Ugh!

[Toronto Villa]

I have no doubt Sherwood wants to giv' it annuva' go too. There's no way that twat, TSM2, TSM1, Remi Garde etc are coming back.

[Jimbo]

I hear David O'Leary is looking to get back into the game.

As a quick fix to get us up I would take Sam Allardyce, just couldn't do any worse and at least he motivates players which ours desperately need!

11 months ago people were writing the same thing but with Bruce's name in there.

[Chris Smith]

I wouldn't but it's moot as he has made it clear he is not interested in a job at present.

I guess I'll get ridiculed for suggesting it but if West Ham are rumoured to be ready to try and tempt FSW as a replacement for Bilic,  why shouldn't we have ago at tempting him by promising him some proper transfer funds if he gets us up?

Tempting who? Bilic? And I give up. Who is FSW?

Benitez. Not sure he fancies having to do the Championship thing all over again though.

[Des Little]

I think we can suggest who we like, and give perfectly rational reasons for them, however deep down we all know that when Bruce gets his P45 it'll be Moyes coming in...and in a year's time we'll be in the same situation as we are now.  It's just such a Villa thing to do.

Thanks for clearing that up mate.

Scary but just the sort of lazy appointment the corporate old school clique bushitter would make.
I would rather keep Bruce.
