Buh-Bye David O'Leary
 

So, with Dreary gone, who does everyone think is gonna take up the mantle next?

Will it be Curbishley? ...or Cowans? ...or maybe even Sven?!?

Re: Buh-Bye David O'Leary
 

Curbs has said he dosn't want the job.

Re: Buh-Bye David O'Leary
 

Damn, he'd have been better than Cowans.

I had heard he'd be interested if Deadly Doug was ousted... maybe now would be a good time for DE to show how much he's supposed to care about the Villa and sell his shares to a filthy rich foreigner.

There's all this talk about how Villa should be the next big thing - let's get a dodgy Russian in on the act, and then get Curbs in charge and prove it!

According to the paper Graham Souness is a front runner :D

Re: Buh-Bye David O'Leary
 

Oh no... not Souness. He was alright at Rangers, but overall he hasn't really performed that well since - with the exception of Blackburn.

Not sure he'd be the right person for the mighty Villa.

Now this would be good...

Randy Lerner, who is richer than Glazer, at the top and Klinsmann running the ship. This would be cool :cool:

I have got a feeling that there is a rule that prohibits American Football team owners from buying another sporting interest, which is one of the reasons why there were so many problems at Man Utd.

Re: Buh-Bye David O'Leary
 

Actually, I think that they're not allowed to own another American sports club. As for the problems with Glazer buying Manu, I understood that there were concerns within the Man u board, and Glazer had trouble with the finance side of it...

It prevents them from owing a sports team in another NFL region. Taking Glazer for an example he could own the Tampa Bay Devil Rays as they are in his region but he couldn't own say the NY Rangers.
