Dean Smith - Confirmed

[Legion]

Whether he remains in post or we get a new manager for the rest of the season I think is largely irrelevant. We look doomed.

[AsTallAsLions]

Traps though, Paulie...... and the setting of them.

The away performances have been consistently appalling & getting worse by the week.

Dean's been given a squad that's basically not up to the job & he's managing to get less out of them.

He should have gone after Watford.... but I fear it's too late now.

[stubbsyandy]

Nice bloke, Villa through and through yes; capable, inspirational, good enough? No
Sorry Dean. If you really love our club, do the decent thing.

[passport1]

The sooner I we the back of him & his vagrant  mate the better. The mascot  probably makes a more useful  contribution .

[wince]

Time to go dean and take terry with you.

[curiousorange]

Smith's sacking is like one of his substitutions - should have been made halfway through but now will happen far too late in the game to be effective.

[andyh]

And the bibs and balls bloke.

[The_ads]

Fuck off Smith you useless twat, and when you’ve fucked off, fuck off some more.

For all the failings he deserves none of that abuse. You really can be a nasty piece of work at times.

It’s time to go. It’s not even getting relegated. Norwich will be relegated, but they’re a side who play well and compete most weeks. Dean has to go because we don’t compete and we’re getting worse. There is no sense of sustained improvement or even stability. It’s utterly unacceptable week in and week out.

[stubbsyandy]

Yep

[curiousorange]

I know some people are pointing to Burnley and Dyche as a reason to stick with Smith through relegation and a possible journey back. But the difference is that Dyche made Burnley a decentish proposition even as they were going down and probably identified players who would augment those who were coming back along for the ride. Does anybody have any reason to suppose Dean Smith will provide the same?

Like it or not I think the owners have made it clear he's got immunity this season whatever happens.

Agreed, I think Norwich have more reason to feel proud of their efforts this season than us. I reckon they’ll catch us up and we’ll go down deservedly rock bottom.

That in itself is a poor decision.
