Dean Smith - Confirmed

[brian green]

His biggest asset is that his name is not quite Save Villa.

I, Vassell

The start of last season was atrocious.  The defence we began the season with was an absolute disgrace.

100% agreed, he had to go Tom.

Newcastle was the perfect fit for Bruce, backs to the wall situation with little expectation, it where he's always thrived.

It really was - I was watching their game with my step-son in law on Sunday and I said to him, bizarrely, Bruce wouldn't have got us up last year, but having got up we would probably have been better off with him than Deano.

He's the football manager equivalent of a damp-proof course on a house.

Look as if moves are starting to be made, John Terry has been offered the Bristol City job, pretty sure he would have wanted something more attractive than that, on the other hand Terry is probably thinking Smith will be gone very soon, which probably means he will be shown the door, so take whats on offer.

Terry is indeed a damp proof course (old type) dense, blue, thick, brought in from distant parts, inflexible, unable to cope with creepers.

I hope this happens, I really do.  I'm not sure he will be a great manager at all.

No idea if Terry going is good or bad news.

Vassilev cant be any worse. Anyway I thought every midfielder worth his salt is a frustrated striker. Hell, Stick Hourihane as centre forward. He can't be any worse and he's Pele  in front of goal compared to Davis.  Anything is better than going into these last games toothless upfront and getting relegated with a whimper.

I can't think of much worse than Hourihane up front. I'd fancy my chances at centre half against him.

Ya see though, we keep saying this, but time after time we get proven wrong!

It’s shit that on Thursday, Man U will field Rashford and Greenwood from their youth system. We have Davis and Vassilev. The gap in quality of products coming out of our system vs the likes of Man U or Chelsea is frightening.

Suit yourself but he does score occasionally. Anyone expecting the present incumbents up front to score again this season?

How can you be worse than a striker who can't score. He can only be just as useless...
