A couple of months ago some were saying that the club was to big for him to manage.

There are numerous posts which would be interesting to post here and see the posters' opinions now.

Not the ones doubting a bit during the bad spell, or the ones wondering if he could step up from Walsall and Brentford - that's normal and understandable. But the really vitriolic constant over-the-top shite from two posters in particular.

However, bollocks to it. We're up and all that counts. He's done a great job.

Also, a quote from him about seeing his dad last Friday brought a bit of a tear to my eye. 
Quote
“To be honest, I went to see my old man on Friday and he kept his eyes open for two minutes and I said ‘the next time I come to see you I’ll be a Premier League manager'.  And he smiled and nodded, so for me, that’s enough.”

Yeah. Shame Stuart 4444444444 and Footyskillz aren’t on the site anymore to ‘enjoy’ the moment, but that’s life I suppose.

I think a lot of that was having seen what managing Villa has done to some promising managers careers, as opposed to not rating him as an individual. He was under pressure to get a massive club but mid table team promoted with a large fan base very much out of patience  after nearly a decade of failure. Big pressure compared to managing Walsall in League One or Brentford in the Championship where each are at the level their fans expect.

Dean Smith has done fantastic a job – but he is a PL novice, will he adapt? Will he be given time to adapt? Should Villa make a pre-emptive move for a PL veteran? I hope he does adapt – but he will not be given time if results are adverse towards Christmas and relegation is on the horizon.  Romance is for Mills and Boon.

Enjoy the moment mate. All valid questions, but for today it’s a wonderful moment.

I think there'd be riots if we sacked him for a "PL veteran" over the summer.

I’m assuming it’s the ball stroking bit that got you?

Is a 'PL veteran' like a 'Championship Specialist'?

Congrats Deano. I doubted his selection of JT as assistant hugely, also his lack of a plan b when Grealish was injured. Proved me wrong and now back where we belong. No matter what happens next, he got us out of that dogarse division and will be a Villa legend forever as a result.

Fuck that, the Premier League is going to have to adapt to the mighty Dean Smith.

I honestly think this is just the start, for him and for us.

Pl veteran meaning someone who fucked up elsewhere? Deano deserves a chance to build our villa. But tonight we party!
