So Andre Villas-Boas has suddenly shot up in the bookies odds to be out next manager. How does everyone feel about that prospect?

In Alex Songs blog on the o/s he is saying goodbye, thanks for the memories & I`m off.
Mixed feelings here about this one.....thoughts.
I see that Teddy has joined my local team Stevenage as manager,I wish him well as he has taken over a good team.Reached the play off's this year but lost in extra time at Southend.I wish him well,first management post.
Let sam go after newcastle and appoint Dyche? Its been a debate all season, 'who would replace sam' if he goes. its been a good point. klopp and benitez i think its safe to say aren't interested, so thats them ruled out. looking at us as a club the potential quality of manager we can attract is debatable. looking at who would jump at the chance to manage us and the list gets smaller. I ruled out Dyche earlier because burnley didnt do a lot in all honesty, showed us some good matches here and there but difficult to judge his tactical ability due to the lack of quality in his team. looking at sam and his comments, its not what we want to hear. all he has to do is be honest and say you know what this year (since jan) its been very poor, i need to make some changes in the summer, bring in one or two blah blah. what we don't want to be hearing is that everything is fine and dandy etc. i've always said this is the right time to move on, to get a new man at the helm and someone who can stay with us for a good few years, building forwards. If we offered Dyche the job he would no doubt take it. he's not going to get a chance at anyone above us as i can't see any changes happening there. newcastle is not an attractive job either with the owner. so i'd say why not? he's youngish, has some fresh ideas, can motivate ….his 4-4-2 is a bit basic and may be found out but he has the appeal of being a rodgers type, likes to look for youth and sustainability. Anyone else think Dyche would be a decent choice all things considered and realistically looking at the options?
Who does he think he is kidding? Newcastle will do what 15 teams have done to us since Christmas and prevent us from winning or beat us! We have only won 3 since I was eating my Christmas pudding :-)
I have this one down for a big Newcastle win and us going out with a whimper! I reckon he has finally lost it this week especially saying it has been a very successful season.
If SUGO keep this dinosaur on another two years I will not go to watch until he has gone!
Had awful trouble both reading, and especially creating posts since Saturday: very slow, and several error messages or cannot connect type messages. Anyone else?
As I was not there I cannot really comment, but what I would have expected was some heavy booing against Sam Allardyce , was there any ?.
From what I saw on MOTD there was just some dejected apathy but not anger but the coverage was so quick (Fortunately) I am not even sure of that.
Surely the fans have to make the board know their feelings if they actually have any, or are we just too chicken to make them felt ?, what seems sought of obvious to me is that it is probably 50/50 regarding the ones who are happy for him to stay and those who are not.
The game was awful but what i cannot believe is how pathetic our defending has become they made Everton look like a top side when in reality they have been struggling like hell to find some solid form.
Typical Typical Allardyce football, but the players have to be blamed too they have lost their way, probably because the Chairmen of the club have not made a statement about the Manager and the uncertainty has affected them, but God did they look unprofessional for both goals conceded, almost switched off.
Villa get spanked, I bet Sherwood aint grinning today! :-)
