The Latest Manager Odds List + Links

thank ***** Bruce is 50/1 lol

Yes JF, an interesting read on the Steve Bruce link....... If he joins us, we've had our chips!!!!!

;o) Wonder if he'd wear a jacket?!

To be honest I would rather have Bruce or McCarthy than Benitaz do we really need another manager talking about his beloved bloody liverpool plus the fact hes a cheque book manager if ever there was one. Hope the board stick to the young vibrant manager.

What would Holloway want with a half arsed, used to be famous club !!! I bet he rues saying that now ?

holloway insulted villa really badly - whoever wants him as a manager needs to go jump off a bridge

I'd take Rafa over Holloway every day of the week!! Cant believe what I am hearing lol. He has managed some of the biggest clubs in the world, he could attract decent players to VP , who is holloway going to attract? He has a 52% win rate and has won the champions league, UEFA Cup, La Liga just to name a few. Bugger me Villa fans what more do you want!!

Honestly can't see Benitez even being approached, he wasn't open to talking last summer without a guarantee BEFORE he would even talk.
Think Holloways mouth might actually spoil his chances of ever getting a 'big' job, if he had calmed down, he might well have been in contention as he isn't a bad manager imho and worked wonders on a shoe string at Blackpool.
lol@Turkish!

I'm surprised that no one seems to fancy Chris Hughton, he did a great job at Newcastle and got shat on there and has since done a great job at teh Sty. I expect it's all down to predjudice (at least in the eyes ofthe media and some fans) against BCFC, especially after how the last one turned out.

I'm hearing lots of talk about Glen Hoddle being at the Belfry last night for a chat with Randy! I spoke to some other guy who works at VP and he tells me that the buzz around the place is that Rafa is the favourite with maybe a Director of Football too.....Hodlle as DOF?

Juddy Villa have stated they will not get a DOF, they want Martinez and are waiting to see what happens with Red Scouse!!!!

;o)

Nice to see the Vital Villa madness is spreading!
I'd not object to Hoddle to be honest, I know a good few would but I liked his Spurs and England style of play. But have others over and above to be fair. Really do doubt this Benitez thing just purely on his rudeness last year + they aren't looking for a DOF... had that from the horses mouth. Not that I should really be talking to horses to be fair.

Why am I getting more nervous, the longer this goes on!!!

Holloway would have been good but he blew it when he slagged us off. I hate the fact we are waiting around like some second class citizen for Liverpool and Chelsea to make up their minds!! Di Matteo would be ok but there are better options out there and Martinez wants to go to Liverpool so see ya later to him as well. Now this leaves us with Poyet, Lambert or AVB as realistic targets I'd be happy with either of those but I'd try everything to get Rodgers, I know he won't want to ditch Swansea but make him an offer he can't refuse. He would be better than all the above names and get us playing the correct way and build us from the bottom to the top, he could stay for 10 years as well. We don't know what is going on behind closed doors but it feels to me that Randy needs to drop the nice guy act and go hard for his targets, don't worry about other teams worry about US Randy! I'm still backing him until we see who he appoints. Oh yeah I have a sneaky feeling OGS isn't out of it yet..... He had to came Molde and the media down and did so but what happens if Randy offers him a firm bid??

Got to be Bruce with Lee Hendry as assistant manager.
