The under 18 squad were playing a local college team 3-05-16 at Bodymoor
On the next pitch was gabby, Stan, Nzogbia and Okore training with the under 21's
At the end of the match Stan, Westwood, and Nzogbia came over to chat to the college team
No photos were allowed in fact all phones etc were locked away in the changing rooms
They reckon the next manager was being interviewed or was at Bodymoor
Problem was nobody saw anybody.

Announcement imminent very very good source didn't say manager or owner I'm thinking owner tho watch for



05 May 2016 08:44:24
not till after last game there won't be.



05 May 2016 08:54:28
Did your source give any clue as to time scale? Imminent simply means 'about to happen' which in Villa terms is equal to the length of a piece of string.



05 May 2016 09:22:21
I'm being told as I have been for a while now both owner and manager is done and will be announced once season is over.



05 May 2016 11:11:16
But if it's done deal, what difference would it make announcing it now or when season is over?



05 May 2016 12:17:02
just gives them a bit of time to look at it and put plans together. Pearson has been looking at what he needs and talking to them. then when it's all announced they can crack on as time is short. it basically gives em a few weeks without us fans expecting anything.



04 May 2016 17:39:08
Nigel pearson seen leaving BMH at 16.30! Any news on this or views I feel an announcement of new owner coming.



04 May 2016 22:50:28
I reckon they will announce Pearson as new manager at the end of the last home game to replace the traditional players parade. Will leave us with optimistic end to the season and something to cheer about?



05 May 2016 00:32:36
Nick I think that's a great shout mate.
Hope your right, but owner and manager!



06 May 2016 07:37:39
No time scale but said imminent but if you think back to randys imminent statement when he announced hollies was new chairman that was 10 days later so that would mean after last game of season so i'm expecting something then it's not all bad that we have heard no news some times no news is good news and for us as passionate fans that's good because we all no we have had our fair share of bad news in past 8 weeks.



06 May 2016 17:25:06
Well update from hollis confirms my source was right I think the main statement will come at end of season but very happy we have a chairman at club that keeps fans informed not like randy keeping quite for 12 months when all we ask is info on where the club was going very happy with hollis taking fans in to consideration and talking to best people possible to move us forward that is all we have been asking for for 4 years we finally got a board on our side.

Bournemouth want to sign Veretout in the summer and Turkish club Besiktas want Lescott. We are paying them to take those players, aren't we?



04 May 2016 10:13:34
veretout could do a good job for us in the championship. by that i don't means groundsman ether.



04 May 2016 14:55:29
what do you base this on, I have not seen play a good game for us, Ball boy yes, get him up to speed so slow.



04 May 2016 16:41:52
Veretout has the makings of a decent player. He wouldn't be the first young newcomer to struggle in the Prem and coming into a team like Villa's I think most would struggle in their debut season.
For what it's worth, i think that in a decent team who play on the front foot (instead of losing the ball after 3 passes and chasing shadows) he could be a tidy player and has shown glimpses of very good passing and good awareness already.
If the rumours are true that other teams are looking at him it's for a reason and they've clearly seen something in him too.



04 May 2016 19:29:56
He would be a massive asset in any division. if the manager would play him in his number 10 position. Not in front of the back 4 or out wide! Why do we always try to put square pegs in round holes?



04 May 2016 20:56:30
the number 10 position is jack Grealish more talent than any at villa, our midfield is terrible,



04 May 2016 23:04:59
Jack may well be a no 10 but both of these players could be used in a 3 behind the striker. Either way I would like to see players of their calibre in the villa squad next season. Along with Gardener Green Gana Toner Baker Lyden and a couple of hungry and experienced professionals to lead the dressing room. Don't want to see good players leave who haven't been given a proper go like a certain Mr Albrighton. Well done to Mark you deserve it.



06 May 2016 07:58:35
Grealise is vastly overrated.
However in the champs he could well be in the right place to develop. He believed all the talk about him being an essential part of the team!
