O'Leary Is Gone

[ONO]

Reports Sky Sports.

[Summers]

Happy days.

[therockbox]

Just need to get rid of Ellis now and Villa might be alright.

[Visionary]

But who are you going to bring in? I really don't think the manager is the problem and he hasn't been for quite a while or at least not the major problem. When your whole team has apparently had a little revolt you have to look further and it seems O'Leary is a scapegoat of sorts.

[Summers]

He's not a scapegoat at all. No one's actually blaming him, they're just using it as an excuse to get rid of him cheaply. And fair play to them for it, I'm glad they did.

I'd say bring back Gregory. I miss him. Haha.

Souness is looking for work and Ellis might like his 'tough on players' routine....

[gunnar hendershow]

I shed a tear for all Villa supporters if Souness is brought in.

[fineintent]

I'd piss myself.

Something at Villa needs to be sorted out, the Premiership-era managers have all suffered due to increasing "bad vibes". To be fair, O'Leary wasn't bank-rolled like Gregory, so his job was always an uphill battle. He's still a shit manager though.

[9 to 5]

I'd piss myself.

Me too. Then feel so sorry for them.

O'Leary spent something like 20 million in his time here, which isn't exactly bad.

If we got Souness, I'd switch to another team. So help me God.

Make it go full circle and come to Newcastle. Or I guess to really go full circle you'd have to go to his first side, Liverpool.

You KNOW Ian Atkins is the man to relegate you take over. (Y)

Over 3 years, it's hardly great financing though - considering what the more generous chairmen/boards of Spurs, Newcastle, Middlesboro, Wigan and Birmingham (although that didn't end too well...) have made available. You could compare it to Sam Allardyce I guess, who has managed to do so much with so little.

All the clubs you named are simply richer in finances than us, though.

Oh, I have no arguement that someone like Gibson (and sure, Gold and Sullivan) are to thank for their clubs money. But Ellis doesn't have the cash they have. That's the problem. I'd -love- the club to be sold to a wealthy - ambitious - board/person - but it seems unlikely.

[fineintent]

How likely is death, either by natural causes or assasination?

>_>

[Summers]

He's frickin' immortal.
