1878 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Moyes has done a cracking job at Everton but I wonder how long he'll give it before realising his hands will always be tied by a lack of funds. Probably when/if a job with serious funds is offered to him i.e. not Aston Villa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are on the outside looking in on a really really slow crash happening at Villa. indeed. it's been quite a remarkable fall from grace really after they looked promising under o'neill. still, they needlessly revelled in our relegation so big fat hairy bollocks to them.

(Sorry brummie). The Express & Star has been inundated with furious messages from Villa supporters who are vehemently opposed to the appointment of McLeish and have threatened to boycott merchandise, refuse to renew season tickets and are planning protests at Villa Park.

gdm Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Villa statement This is a message to the fans of Aston Villa. The Club has been reluctant to elaborate publicly on our search for a new manager and, in particular, to confirm or deny our interest in specific candidates. This is not a new policy, indeed it is the approach that we have taken both in regard to managerial prospects, and potential player signings. The Club understands that Alex McLeish is a free agent. We therefore intend to interview him imminently in order to make a decision regarding his candidacy to become Villa manager. From the beginning of our search, we have set out criteria based on proven Premier League experience, compelling leadership, an ethic for hard work and, most importantly, sharing our vision for Aston Villa as we know that without a shared vision any appointment, however attractive, will ultimately fail. Since 2006 we have approached our custodianship of Villa based on a broad-based strategy of significant investment to improve the squad, the training ground and Villa Park. We feel it is essential to select a manager who understands and supports our strategy for the Club to grow and to be sustainable. Otherwise, the natural tensions and competitive pressures that are involved with every season will ultimately cause instability and make continuity impossible. We would, however, like to emphasise that in deciding to interview Alex McLeish, the Board has taken his tenure at our local rivals and the strong emotions associated with this very seriously. We are determined, still, not to allow that three-and-a-half year post to disqualify him should he be the best candidate for the role of Aston Villa manager.
