Guest Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 USA U19's, New England first team management, involvement with Spurs. Would certainly fit the youth development remit. Would certainly fit the fan service remit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armchair supporter supremo Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) Just came on hear to suggest that maybe Stuart Pearce could be a contender for manager as he's just left his coaching job at west ham stating he's looking at other opportunities and challenges.... Then come on hear to see talk linking him to the dof role 🤔🤔 The dof role is still abit of a mystery to me until somebody from the club states what precisely that role is going to entail!! As for Pearce 🤷♂️ defintely not management material but since retiring as a player he has aquired a lot of experience that could make him a big asset behind the scenes, plus having a passionate no nonsense character like pearce at the club would instantly be an improvement! P. S. It would also be great to have Brad Friedel back at the club, but the role would have to be right!

martonrover Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Friiedel as DOF, fine, but it would be a classic, populist appoint an ex-player scenario, (is Shebby pulling a few strings from beyond the grave? ) Has zero previous experience in that role. Friedel as manager / head coach = no ta. Has demonstrably not cut it in that role. Absolutely loved him as a player, but that means nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprise if Villa first team coach Michael Beale had apply for the head coach job here. I wouldn't be that suprised if Ian Beale got a job here. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you had read that site properly. there is a number of different claims made that I have never posted on here. I have mentioned Michael Beale name cos I've seen an article linking him to managing in Championship. Here the link to it https://www-footballinsider247-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.footballinsider247.com/aston-villa-may-already-have-michael-beale-replacement-lined-up-after-worrying-news-hutton/?amp=&_gsa=1&_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=16533445441619&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.footballinsider247.com%2Faston-villa-may-already-have-michael-beale-replacement-lined-up-after-worrying-news-hutton%2F Then you look a number of different articles/videos about his coaching style, record, etc out there in public domain is another reason why I suggest him for the head coach here.

Where is Tony's tombola drum gone? I would wager it is being prepped as we speak, with candidate names being loaded frantically on old tizer corks, ready to spin round in anticipation of the random selection of the next incumbent. Only problem is, all of the writing is in invisible ink, and only Waggot has the infra-red glasses to read the contents. Oh yes, It is going to be a wild old lottery ride this summer.

Let's hope that the club are nearer to a conclusion than we think is the case. The Lancashire Times says interviews from the shortlist will be held this week. Lets hope so then we can move onwards and upwards. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
