  1. I don't think anyone has disputed that. The one consistent message across this thread is that Gerrard would be a risk
  2. To what end? Rangers are not going to sign him up to a new contract before Villa make an offer for him or make contact.
  3. The very thing that Gerrard did at Rangers i.e. take them up and rebuild the squad is the reasoning that many people want to give DS more time. New team, new league, new player, transition period etc. Gerrard managed to overcome these issues rather quickly
  4. That is definitely something Dean Smith had lots of experience with Seriously though, that is a very good point and one I hadn't considered myself
  5. Do u think Gerrard is leaking rumours to the media that Aston Villa are interested in him?
  6. I was saying that the situation that the Saints fans were in is very similar to the situation that we would be in if we appoint Gerrard. The Saints fans were wrong that time. So it is not a forgone conclusion that it is wrong to appoint Gerrard. We simply do not know. Gerrard could turn out to be a bad choice or he could turn out to be a very good choice
  7. But isn't it right that AVFC improves the commercial side of the business and that should be seen as a positive
  8. Saints fans didn't want Poch and were upset Adkins was sacked
  9. Lennon was winning it when it was a one horse race too.
  10. What exactly is the relevance of the high profile fans? Is it the fear of the reaction from Tom Hanks and Wills?
  11. Ashley paid 5m for him and then Amanda paid him 8.5m to bugger off. And in the intervening period he was collecting about 3m a year in wages.
  12. If we do sign him up it would be interesting to know the compensation clause if Liverpool come calling
  13. Yeah, got to like that. My favourite bit was the discussion on the use of subs. It was tactical. Christ, I have wanted to hear a Villa manager use subs like that for years. Normally it is just for fresh legs
  14. If we weren't looking at other managers then Gerrard would either be our manager now or he would have ruled himself out
  15. How can there be no ambition in appointing Gerrard when you say if we wanted a solid safe pair of hands we would go for Potter or Hasenhuttl. By not going for a safe pair of hands is by definition being ambitious. Yes it is a risk but it can't be claimed it isn't ambitious
  16. Every business will make wrong decisions and go on to regret the decision they made. However, good management will recognise when a bad decision was made and will rectify the problem and will learn from it
  17. I don't think u are quite getting the point that is made
  18. Toon are in serious threat of relegation. We are a step above that
  19. Its helps when saying that it is a bad appointment in and to try and justify that Dean shouldn't have been sacked
