We did. He failed.

I kinda see Brody more in the Alan Cumming role in Goldeneye.

As the old saying goes, "you're entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts"

I think there's been enough dodgy hearsay on here without getting worked up about the hearsay from other clubs' forums! I can't imagine Mr Gardner is that annoyed to have been loaned out, considering that he accepted the assignment.

Come now, that's a little weak. The SISU conspiracy theorists do not compare with fans being excited about having a highly-touted U21 international wear the colours.

Don't mind them. There's a permanent glass-half-empty setting on this forum. It's extremely encouraging to hear how highly the lad is rated by multiple Villa fans. Can't wait to see him in action. Let's just hope he can stick around beyond January.

What's the point of a constant if we are 5 points,-7 goals, and one game ahead of all of our competitors - in November. If that 'constant' means we are dead-on for relegation, then where is the harm in changing the manager to see if somebody can do better? They cannot do any worse if relegation...

Where did you hear this?

But why attempt nothing? All the talk of wanting the club to die and imminent relegation (it's November) sounds an awful lot like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Wow, just wow. Please don't set fire to yourself outside the Ricoh.

The door might not have revolved so much if they hadn't sacked Black.

Heh, so I'm allowed my views but I shouldn't air them? I may come across as 'discouraging' in this thread, but it's not without the group's best interests at heart.

Thanks, but I'm not really on the same page re. fan outrage. I know it's not a popular viewpoint, but I don't see any evidence that SISU are doing anything particularly evil with the club.

Thing is, they know that they are hated by the fans. That's why they are in their bunker - no visibility, no communication. Putting an official number on the amount of people who despise them really doesn't change anything. A petition/chain letter to Coventry MPs would be a far more valuable use...

A waste of time. No hedge fund is going to blink at an online petition or 'fan pressure'. If you really want to make a dent, get Collins and local MPs to pressure SISU to reveal their investors, or organise a boycott of a game.

That is the bizarre line that has taken hold around here. It's just masochistic - "nobody could do any better, we're doomed, the sooner we go into admin the better" etc. Nobody has to like the current situation, but the lack of fight is surprising.

The team is five points and -7 goals deep in the relegation zone having played one game more than just about everyone else. And it's not even December. So I'd suggest we appoint anyone with a pulse, to be frank. How much worse could they do?

I'm not in favour of Juke being sold, but just adding some context considering all the spleen vented at not cashing in on Westwood, Gunnar and co. No player is going to fetch a premium if they're sold with less than a year of their contract left, and they may choose to wait out the remaining...

Sounds like more paranoia to me. 1. Southampton could deny interest in Juke. 2. Southampton could deny they ever made an offer for Juke if SISU make the claim they turned down a bid. 3. SISU are more likely to take a transfer fee than play PR games to appease the fans. The fact is that Juke...

Form doesn't need to remain static. The hope was in the performance, which showed the team can hold their own among the league's best. With the possible addition of Michael Brown and more performances like that, this team can put up a legit fight for survival.
