Happy enough with this.
One word of caution, Dean is a bit of a slow burner. Takes a while for his methods to really click into place at Walsall and Brentford. Yes better players here but they need to be organised and coached. He will do that but needs time.
I think our rest of the season will probably be similar to when SB came in. Next season is when I really expect us to look good providing FFP dosen't cripple us.
I would imagine Richard O'Kelly will be coming in to join the staff. Dean's number 2 at Walsall and Brentford. Used to manage Hereford.

Triple signing and at last a shape is coming together. Well done to Christian Purslow for dumping Steve Bruce, not playing all of this out in the media and going in for Smith and Terry quickly and effectively. Top class, professional. Will be interesting to see who else they bring in with them but we have a Manager who wants to play proper football, has an Assistant who is utterly respected and we have a Sporting Director with a great pedigree. I'm glad we have had games moved for telly now. Swift, decisive, meaningful. Excellent.

I'm a lot more in favour of this then I am some of the options, but he wouldn't have been my top choice.
Still, let's see what he can do. Hopefully we can play some decent stuff. Should add a few thousand to the Abertawe gate too!

Crivens, I wasn't expecting such a statement at this time of night!
I'm excited by the appointments, so welcome one & all. May you sort out this fecking shambles & bring organisation, excitement and success to Aston Villa.

Happy enough but we need patience and to be realistic. It will probably take 3 years to be champions of England, and another couple to start winning the European Cup on a regular basis. At least we've wrapped up the division 2 title and FA Cup this season now though.

I like that he's head coach and therefore will be on the training ground rather than sending his unskilled lackeys to do his job.
He's done well so far, let's hope he can grow more and into our club. He knows what it means, hell get full support from the fans.
