The He Who Shall Not Be Named Thread

Get rid ASAP. I've a feeling he'll be here another week to be destroyed by 2 proper teams. I can't express how much I'm dreading that Man City game next week.

Next two games are losses - if we can relieve ourselves of Purslow and Gerrard within this time frame then that would work out I think

Reminds me of the time they were thinking about Thierry Henry, looking at the name rather than their managerial skills.

Tongue in cheek comment but I would hold fire on increasing the capacity at VP for as long as this man remains at the club. 20,000 on the waiting list for season tickets but if this carries on we wont need the extra seats. All well and good revamping the stadium and I'm all for that - but it starts with what happens on the pitch and Purslow needs to earn his corn admit the gamble has failed and upgrade the manager first. And don't dither just do it.

I’m with you on the ground development.I don’t go to admire the architecture, I want to see quality on the pitch.

Ridiculous isn't it.

And as for his ability to attract players because of his name, not much point in that if he can't play them properly.

 

[Pangloss]

Forest look a fitter, stronger and more competent side than us and they came up with a gash squad and like 16 new signings to bed in. Gerrard has to go and go now.

 

[Silhillvilla]

There were quite a few empty seats by me today

Those players are probably regretting it now.

Almost every team I've seen looks better than us. We huff and puff and fall apart.

Things have gotten real bad real quickly, my head is spinning.

 

[Leftsideoftheholte]

Is he still at Villa?
Both owners apparently were at the game today.
Come on then and Purslow...act!
This guy has lost the fans and at least half the dressing room. He needs shifting now, today without a second to lose.

Like a whirlpool it never ends?

 

[tarzan]

We lack pace and look lethargic. I cannot see why Ings, Watkins and McGin start as default.

 

[JW1985]

I see tin pot clubs like Palace, Brighton, Brentford looking better than us with less because they have an actual plan. Hire a manager that has a clear vision of how he wants to play then sign players that fit that vision.

Whereas we've basically hired a celebrity that doesn't have a clue and chucked money at him.

I did notice on my drive home that the billboard poster of him with the line ‘it’s only this sensational once’ has been removed, just as well I guess.

 

[Claret & Blue Blood]

So the rhetoric was that Stevie Gee was using the Villa job as a stepping stone towards the Liverpool job. The way it is looking, he might not get to use it a stepping stone to the Tranmere job.
Dean Smith was sacked for a better set of results than SG has achieved.

I would agree but sadly it is too late to bring in someone else because the transfer window is due to slam shut.

 

[Silhillvilla]

The place is turning rotten again. We can all see it.
The owners need to act swiftly , that includes removing Purslow

 

[Villan57]

There were quite a few empty seats by me today

I wonder why

Stats wise Gerrard is now the worst manager in the clubs history

 

[AV Dave]

It's times like this i wish we had stuck with Dean, until a proper manager and not a celebrity was available.
