MR_Black_AVFC Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Not sure if any of you listened to the phone in on Gold tonight. Tom Ross said that he has been told by Falkner that McLeish is here for the long term, and will be backed in the Summer by Lerner to build his team.

You sure he likes Weimann, he only usually can support one player of similar age in similar position and we all know Delfouneso is just so close from winning the best player ever to grace the earth.

Tom Ross said that he has been told by Falkner that McLeish is here for the long term, and will be backed in the Summer by Lerner to build his team. I have no doubt this is the case. My prediction is we will finish next year around 12th/13th and the board will tell us they were right to stick with him as this is an improvement. Ultimately Randy Lerner is now interested in nothing but survival. If he sticks with Mcleish and accepts a future of mediocrity surely no villa fan can continue to defend our owner. Unfortunately looking at the browns it's pretty easy to see what our future will be like. It's so frustrating to have to put up with this level of shitness. Lerner is a disgrace of an owner and an utter failure. Let's pray he sells up soon to someone who is capable of not wasting millions of pounds while making their team worse than when they took over.

Mantis Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Depending on who leaves and who stays, I actually think we could go down next season if McLeish is still in charge. Personally I still think there's a chance Randy will act in the summer. He's not an idiot (then again he did appoint McLeish in the first place). He's going to see that keeping McLeish here will ultimately cost him more money than it will take to sack him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I actually have a lot of optimism in our youth and I think we can have a very good team for the next few years but I don't think McLeish can be the guy that turns us into that team. Gardner, Bannan, Lichaj, Herd, Baker, Clark, and Weimann all could turn into really good players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Black_AVFC Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I agree totally. Lerner's appointment of Houllier was a disaster. There were times where the football was atrocious. Then when he was took ill, he took the club to the cleaners. The only thing good that came out of the Houllier era was the signing of Darren Bent who ultimately kept us up with his goals. Its a tricky one to see how McLeish would improve this squad. I said a few pages back that we are unlikely to bring in any 'marquee' signings. The Holman signing is a sign of things to come I believe. Add a few midfield 'cloggers' and the signings of Johnson and Dann, and I think that will be our team next year.
