Bruce...Warnock..?????????? Seems plenty of contenders...but who... Kean..........must be firm favorite. Big Mick.....got a win at weekend..to fend the Wolves off (get it?) Mc'Leish.....maybe... Martinez.....would they? Wenger......no.. AVB....wouldn't bet against it... Harry..???????????if he gets sent to the doghouse....could well be. Anymore?
If Bolton have a few bad results, I can see Coyle going, but they have seemed to pick it up a bit from the start of the season. Its weird though, everyone was on Bruces back (well nearly everyone) and in jan i am pretty sure Botlton were 1 point behind us fighting for 6th place, they finished the season 1 point behind us, and even this season, pretty sure they were always below us, so Coyle had just as bad a run, if not worse for letting in lots of goals (Bruces teams never really got turned over) as Bruce did, but not many have been calling for his head, if any. Strange game this football isnt it.
MON for the bullet if you ask me - he is seriously upsetting the status quo - its a disgrace that we`re winning games - how are we expected to enjoy the last few weeks of the season when we`re not worried about the fear of relegation - get rid quick Ellis
Think AVB will need to do a lot better 2nd half of the season, owner is not the most patient man. Otherwise Roman will be inviting him in for a game of russian roulette.
i have a few villa mates that are crying out for a new manager, they didn't really like Mcleish's appointment in the first place
Steve thought you were the statically correct one, hope you recheck, cos the Skunks 5-1, is just one that sticks out, however there were a few others
Could you have waited until we have 40 plus point's on the board...... Look what happened to us last season, at this stage. Manure last game too, let's just hope your comment doesn't come back too...you know the rest.
McLeish Villa fans didn't want him, fights with his own players, an owner who will make his job untenable, but will hope he walks to save money. Not confident enough to back him to go mind, as there are too many close candidates. Unlike the confidence I felt with Bruce to be the first one gone. Made my bookie sad and me happy.
Am i the only one that is loving seeing Villa doing crap? Never was their biggest fan to begin with, but with the whole Bent thing, footballing reasons and Young/Downing - I am enjoying seeing them flounder. To see Bents face each week looking long and forlorn, it brings a smile to my face. Coupled with the success we are having at the moment, it seems this is a 'victory to the little guy' which is basically what Bent was calling us when he left. For him and Insomnia to get relegated would be a dream come true to me. Add Stoke to that list and I would need a new pair of pants. Hope McLeish stays with Villa for a long time, as I have no doubt he will take them down
Spot on! I didn't know what to wish for last week at SportsDirect. A draw possibly to screw up both? A win for Villa to screw up THEM? A win for THEM to stuff Bent? Decided any of them would be okay. Villa relegated would put me in hospital!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Villa owners won't like this...... Aston Villa supporters will demonstrate this weekend against boss Alex McLeish. Big Eck has not won over many fans since joining from city rivals Birmingham in the summer, and some are planning a protest ahead of Manchester City’s visit on Sunday. A statement on the Vital Villa website said: “We have played 24 games this season, we have won six. Is this good enough? No. It’s relegation form and McLeish is not the man to lead Aston Villa. “He was given £20m to spend and has players like Bent, Agbonlahor and Ireland. But we are 13th and need to act before it is too late.”
