Really impressed with the Danks interview after the game. He’s clearly a very good coach and I hope he gets to stay on with whoever comes in along with Cutler and maybe even McPhee.

I've just watched that and came here to say the same. Plus, I know it's not important in the grand scheme but it was nice to hear a Brummie accent talking about a great win again, even if he is from the dark side

Is he a Villa fan?
Think he's a bluenose
Yardley way, that will irritate someone from the dark side

I just loved the last line where he says he's knackered after the last few days but will be in there tomorrow morning. He gave it his best, Nose or not, he gave it his best. Respect.

Funny how the current interim manager and the bloke who oversees our academy are both noses.

And the current Blues manager is a Villa fan!

Obviously not proper Blues or whatever they say.  One thing that struck me when we got the first goal was the team running to the bench. These coaches have respect from the players. Haven’t seen that for a while. Would love to know what the players thought of SG and his coaching staff.

No Emery until 1st November so Danks still in charge for Newcastle, presumably.

That's fine, when we batter them it'll just give Dick a better platform to build from.

Think they both stay.  Seem to be club employees rather than linked to a manager

No idea. If the set pieces are more like they were against Brentford than Fulham, he's welcome to.

If yesterday was proof of their true abilities then they both deserve to keep their positions.

Maybe the double pivot and wingers wasn’t down to these two after all? Not that I want to take credit away from these, bust sacking a manager and having one employed so quickly who play this way, makes me wonder if we had sounded out Emery already.

So a manager literally phoning it in was better than Gerrard.
