Let The Managerial Nonsense End - At Least For Now - It's A No To Henry

[mike_field]

With new the last 48 hours about the potential appointment of Thierry Henry following our takeover by Nassef Sawiris and Wes Edens, reaction has certainly been mixed amongst Aston Villa fans.

With the media working themselves into a hissyfit as they went full on clickbait with regards to the speculation that we would be appointing Thierry Henry as manager, Steve Bruce was known to be meeting our new owners today to discuss the future.

The Daily Star is a disgrace

Must confess that in the pic on the Villa site the two owners look as though Steve has roughed them up a bit.

 

[Bikini Inspector]

Yep. They've come in and made a decision which will provide continuity. Onwards .

Football as usual this coming season then.
I just hope there are no complaints like last season.
Having watched the first half of the West Ham practise match, I'm afraid young Doyle-Hayes hasn't done himself any favours, what with looking forward before looking sideways or back. How we could use Westwood back in the fold.

And more boring championship games for years! Thanks to our spineless new owners! Can't tell you how pissed off I am!!

I think the managerial speculation will be starting up again before Christmas

Spineless new owners eh? What was the term David O'Leary used about an element of Villa fans...fickle? Five days after taking control......branded as 'spineless'! What a lovely welcome!

Cant work out if most of this thread is pee taking tbh.

Lee51 , just wow !

As is Talk sport. They were just as bad .

 

[McParlandTheGreat]

They've made an initial assessment (of the manager, finances, timing etc) and come up with a sensible pragmatic decision.

We won't be relegated with Steve; if we keep this squad we have a good chance of doing at least as well as last year. And meanwhile, the new owners can put their thinking caps on, get some good advice, and start planning for the longer term.

 

[Fulford]

Unlike Xia these guys are long term

Good . Don't bother.

 

[Stephen Jay Hawkings]

As is Talk sport. They were just as bad .

As are all the various pundits and journalists who came out to sling shit at our new owners for going after Henry. Tom Ross called the owners "autograph hunters".

All over absolutely nothing.

As I said in the Steve Bruce thread:

Freaking relieved that is all over and Bruce is stopping. I was terrified of a new manager coming in with no experience. God these reporters get paid how much to talk sh*t basically.

I suppose there is a portion of the public who want someone to conjure up sh*te to give Jo public something to talk about and that's how they get away with it!

 

[gmvillan]

I refer to my initial post from minutes after the Henry “exclusive” story broke.... Pure Speculation.

What should I çall them for changing their management plans based on a few unsicentific polls? And condemning us to more of the same trip! We and them will live to regret it!

They have very lofty goals set for the club and fans.
