I disagree. I would offer Alladyce a 1 mill contract to end of season with a 5 mil bonus if we are promoted. If we arebthe the bonus is also a handshake as there is no contract to be discussed if in the prem as we will be going a different route.
Take it or leave it deal.
Alladyce not only has the opportunity to put himself back in the managerial pot but he loves cash so a win win for everyone.

In a 2 horse race he convinced the FA to pick him over spud u like.

In the face of no other plan up our sleeve I think it is a sensible option.

I have allways feared that there is some sort of destiny regarding Allardyce and The Villa.

when you see Fulham, Wolves, Huddersfield Watford, Bournmouth, Brighton all with progressive type managers
go up and look like staying up in the main
 ( I know Huddersfield are bottom and Brighton and Bournmouth have British managers)

 I know they are not world beaters but they do take the game when they can to the opposition they won't all make it because they are always going to be up against the odds,

But when you see that template
why do we always think the Cardiff route is best for us, why





Why


I think I'm going mad trying to understand , but why

Personally, whoever is Villa manager - they get a contract to Summer 2019.  You get the club promoted, or you're gone.  If the club goes up, then we'll talk about a longer contract (maybe 2 years, with a defined goal at the end of that period - maybe reasonable mid-table position, with a squad capable of improving with investment).


No manager who is not desperate would go for those terms.

I've never got that kind of thinking. These are real jobs, real people's careers. They are going to want to have some level of security for themselves and their families. Even if we say went for a mercenary type bloke like Allardyce it would come with more than a few months and huge compensation stipulation success or failure (pay off contract).

Someone who thinks about how players will fit into a system of play before he purchases/loans them.

Klinsmann is out of work, although he's probably in his Speedos in California.

Another reason to get Saviour Sam in, he does great stunt aeroplane impressions.

Klinsmann is out of work, although he's probably in his Speedos in California.

His Bayern team used to have secret meetings to discuss tactics as Klinsmann wasn't up to the job. Wes Edens is a fan so don't be surprised if he turns up at Villa Park.
