I'm a newbie. I love my club and want the best. I am not sure where we go at the moment. We blamed McLeish got rid no improvement. We blamed Sherwood got rid no improvement. Be blamed RDM got rid no improvement. We blamed Guzan Clarke Cissoko Westwood Ayew Gestede McCormack got rid no improvement.
It can't go on something is fundamentally wrong in our famous club.

Welcome gogirl.
Yes there is something wrong. We make a change and expect instant results
It doesn't work that way. Plus, some of those changes have been pretty catastrophic. Lerner overshadowed all of it of course and he is thankfully gone
Things will improve. Stay with it.

You are right mate but if you look Sean Dyche has had touch times at Burnley they stuck with, same can be said for Eddie Howe, look at Arsenal their consistently good but they haven't been the best in England for years, they maintain champions league by sticking with the same guy.

I hated pulis as all he does is mention the villa but watched him on the prem league show and you can see why baggies stuck with him when all the fans wanted him out and look at them now, reaping the rewards!

Even if we don't make promotion push now with this squad I'd want Bruce next year, and stick with, we have the squad now just need the manager to have enough time to get his ideas across and give the whole club some stability.

Mendax, thank you for your welcome, i know patience i have hung on in there with the old fellah for thirty years hoping things would improve, they haven't and it's way too late to change now. Let's hope our beloved team don't follow my patience. I have a good feeling about tomorrow though and think Bruce is a good honest man, I know you make your own luck, but I really don't think we have had our fair share of late and it's due to change just a good feeling I have. So hang on in there I will.

Glad to hear it mate. You have a similar history to mine by the sound of it
I'm not sure about tonight. One part of me says "by the law of averages we have to get an away win" the other "it's Villa, we're on the telly, it's a humiliating loss"
I'll be flip-flopping all day I suspect.

Oops, I just realised, when you say "old fellah" you were on about your husband and lot Doug Ellis Lol.
I just want to make it clear, when I say we have a similar history, I have not been married to a chap for 30 years and am annoyingly happy with MRS MENDAX!
I'm sure Mr Gogirl is not as bad as you suggest. Enjoy the game.

{Ed001's Note - the time to worry is when you find out gogirl is actually Mrs Mendax.....}
