    Fat Sam will almost get the gig on big $$$$ before JFH undercuts him while proving he can fly to and frow to Singapore for a lot less, only for Stevie Bruce to cry poor for not taken any 'advisory' fees since he left Hull, thus winning the job.

    Harold will act as a player adviser to the board for which he'll get the board to pay Stevie Bruce $8,000 a week so he can take half.

    Read an article today which said that Di Matteo never had the goods.
    He failed at Schelke or alike....... Terry & co basically ran the show at Chelsea and got got found out at Villa. Probably a bit harsh. Even the best have a tough run at times.

    Bloody hell! even less than I thought. As I said before, I don't like Villa that much so if they self destruct then who cares.

    agree to a certain extent, it's the boring tactics that have turned me against Jimmy

    He was appointed QPR manager in December 2015. Bit of a difference.

    That's true. And I'm no fan of Jimmys brand of 'non-football'. Just think our club as a whole needs a lot of work, patience and time to put thing right......

    Not as a manager he hasn't!

    Not many good players make good managers. Lots of average players do though.

    Villa are a basket case. Appointing Di Matteo was a silly decision to start with.

    He has won it as a manger, never did as a player though.

    It was a poor choice though, think they'll end up with Bruce and he'll sort them out. I see Lee Johnson is one of the favourites too, another good young manager I'd like to see us linked to if JFH does do the decent thing.

    At least it takes the attention away from us. Villa are doing even worse than I thought it was possible. Looks like Bruce is favourite to take over.

    B***y hell! He was in charge of The Penshioners when they won it?

    That totally escaped me. But then that final never really happened. Like the '86 League Cup, the final didn't take place!
