Aston Villa 2015/2016

Some fans now suggesting that we're certain to go on a run, just because we got 4 points from 2 games in the Prem and beat Wycombe in the cup after a replay. :facepalm:
 
Felt for you tonight. You were the better team for 15 minutes and then Ayew decided to elbow Cresswell in the face for no reason. Cost you the game. Don't understand what he was thinking. Nothing Garde can do about that. Must be so frustrating.

Watched this down the boozer. That pass from Mark Noble was sublime.
 
Sport is a fickle bitch. My local footie team won, England beat South Africa, England beat Scotland, and Villa won!! Like Halley's Comet, the next time this will probably happen will be in another 75 years. :(

I just thought I'd quote my post from last week. At least the rugby didn't let me down though, or my local footie team. :(
 
not all bad news - at least Joleon has got a new motor...

So, Garde bailed out then, before a looming season in the Championship!

When does Lerner get the fucking fuck out? :mad:

Only when someone pays his price, which may be the problem since he's been trying to get the price for over a year now and no-one is buying. He'll have to cut the asking money quite substantially once our relegation is confirmed.

I tend to favour Pearson over Moyes. He may be a bit of a nutter but frankly we need someone who won't be afraid to clear out the dressing room of the wastes of space that occupy most of it and give the rest a good boot up the arse. His Championship experience will also be invaluable.

Although it's hard to know whether the meeja takes on the club's current plans are in any way reliable, I am very clear that I do not want Steve Bruce (past it, can't get Hull promoted, former Blues manager) or either of two new candidates put forward today, Gary Neville (far too inexperienced) or Ruud Gullit (hasn't managed since 2011 and has never been successful as a manager).

In the meantime, Micah Richards continues to behave like a fucking bellend. :facepalm::mad:

Micah Richards labels Aston Villa fan 'a clown' and says players deserve break due to 'long hard season'
 
If there is one small reason to be optimistic it is the vigour with which the new chairman Steve Hollis has approached his responsibilities and dismantled the failing management structure of the football side of the club. Tom Fox, probably the worst and most overpaid CEO in sports corporate history, has gone, as his Hendrik Almstadt, the overpromoted sporting director, and Paddy Reilly, the scout who, erm, never previously worked as one, can't be far away from going. Remi Garde doesn't bear all the blame but was too tactically conservative and too gentile to boot the players up the arse and motivate them in the way that Tim Sherwood did at the end of last season. Getting Brian Little involved in the footballing side has been a smart move; someone younger such as Dion Dublin or Ian Taylor should also have a role.

We need a strong manager now with a free rein to ship the underachievers out of the club and get in experienced players who will do a job in the Championship. I want the manager in as soon as possible so that he can spend time looking to see who in the squad needs to go and who might be able to help in getting us back up again.
 
nigel pearson i think would be the ideal man i know his an ex fox man but
i do rate him as a manager can`t imagine the premier league with out villa
 
To add extra salt to the most putrid of gaping wounds, Villa might well be the diddiest of the three clubs being relegated from the Premier League (Sunderland and Newcastle consistently have had higher annual home gates over the last decade).
