Looks like O'Neill knew when to get out!!

Most football fans think he is a good manager and that Villa were mad to let him go. The situation we are in now also looks like that is the correct assessment.

But what was going on inside the club was why he was allowed to go.

Lerner wants Villa to pay for itself (as will be UEFA rules in 2013), but too many of O neills signings were on "Champions League" wages, sadly they never made it those heights. He played the same team week in week out, so that come March when that final push would have taken Villa to the promised land 3 seasons in a row, the players were knackered and slipped back to 6th place on each occasion.

O Neill was told that he wouldn't be given anymore money to waste until some of his expensive signings that werent playing were off loaded. Sell to buy - he was told this at the end of last season, but during the summer nobody was sold. Then Man City come in with a huge offer for Milner (our best player), nobody wanted him to leave, but the decision was made and O Neill was told he wouldn't get any of that money as he hadnt off loaded any of the shite. The dummy was spat out and off he went leaving us in the brown stuff.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ashley Young is off in Jan, if a huge offer comes in. But I still have faith that Houllier will be given money to spend and that he will turn things around . It can sometimes only take one result and everything looks different, confidence comes back and off we go.... heres hoping.

Adam,Sorry mate I think you are living in a dreamworld

Living in dreamworld ? Why?

Just want to add, I wouldn't mind if Houllier was sacked, I'd much rather have Martin Jol.

11th place to 20th place is only 5 points difference, never seen it so close.
