Funny how people who are dismissive of somebody like Smith (promoted from the Championship having inherited a team underachieving) are keen on this appointment. What's the actual criteria?

Here's an idea, don't let a massively conflicted Ofsted set the terms of the future inspection regime Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk

I think there is too much reading into the article itself being the reason rather than just being a by-product of a falling out

I highly doubt Palace were ever in for Sheaf, especially given that they signed Warton from Palace last year. The only one I heard about was Luton.

Is the government dependent on the repayment of student loans to fund its ongoing spending obligations? The outstanding balance is now nearly £250bn, it is clearly not that important that it is collected so why bother?

Indeed, I was working in Leeds at the time and one of the senior people was a Leeds fan and was incredibly arrogant about them beating Derby at home. It was a laugh going in the next day.

Not many players in that team who had significant PL experience at that point in time.

TBF Dean Smith built the core of the current successful Villa team. Got Villa promoted (having taken over in November with them in 15th place).

Dean Smith been mentioned

They had the lad McAtee from Man City who scored that breakaway goal against us, in fact they had Tommy Doyle as well I think.

To be fair for the new head coach coming in they're going to have to be quite pragmatic and play to the strengths of what we've got for now. It'll be interesting to see what happens.
