New Villa Manager, " Garde"

[piggynose]

was this a good appointment? why didn´t they go for nigel pearson?

[tonyav]

Yep, I think we need Jesus of Nazareth now and not a manager to save us.

[Tilly2]

Don't despair, Yont.

There's always next season. Look at Chelsea. How the mighty have fallen! To everything there is a season...turn, turn. :-)

[tonyav]

Yeah, but I don't want next season to be in the Championship league.

My grandad Tilly, said mums dad so that you knew which side. Dads side were all Stoke mad. 1960s Wrights pies, mash, peas n gravy in the pie shops all around Stoke. not the same now though.

Villa - appointed Remi Garde to save employing an interpreter (half the Villa squad now being French). A once regular top 6 side under Martin O'Neill, now a poor shadow of those times, a club whose main (only?) aim is to avoid relegation every year.

West Brom - gradually turning into Sunderland, acquiring very average Man Utd cast-offs

... er Joe, Remi Garde has just banned French being spoken in the dressing room.

Sacre bleu!
